For the monster of the same name from Dragon Quest V and Dragon Quest XI, see Wight king (Dragon Quest V).


The Wight king is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series that was introduced in Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King.

It is not to be confused with the monster of the same name (Japanese and English) that appeared in Dragon Quest V and XI.

Characteristics

Wight kings are zombies with a deathly blue pallor bedecked in tattered regal robes and a crown colored in various shades of crimson, gold, and teal. They carry a scepter topped with a cracked skull and wear a ruby ring on their right hands. Their sunken eyes glow green and they appear to be missing a few teeth from their skulls. These royal wights are master spellcasters armed with a variety of powerful magic, having a particular affinity for wind spells.
