| | |
| '''Bishop Ladja''' (or simply Ladja) is a major character in {{Dragon Quest V}}.
| |
| | |
| He is one of the primary antagonists in the story, and is responsible for much of the hardships the {{Hero 5}} endures.
| |
| | |
| ==Characteristics==
| |
| Bishop Ladja is one of the highest-ranking members of the [[Order of Zugzwang]] (the highest-ranking member in the {{DS}} version), frequently being paired with other cultists for missions on the surface world. He is a being of utmost evil, delighting in causing untold grief for others, spreading misery through the land by orchestrating political upheavals and ordering the abduction of innocents for slave labor. Behind this sadistic persona lies a cunning intellect and shrewd sense of practicality, as Ladja will do all he can to snuff out obstacles to the Order's goals before they have the chance to fully materialize.
| |
| | |
| While Ladja appears to be outranked by [[King Korol]], he is the true right-hand man of [[Nimzo|the devil]] and did not hesitate to kill the King for outliving his usefulness. Ironically, Ladja's final moments would show that he is just as dispensable as all the other minions of Grandmaster [[Nimzo]], with his master forsaking aiding him for his repeated failures and allowing the group of heroes to penetrate the defenses of [[Mt. Zugzwang]].
| |
| | |
| ==Story==
| |
| Bishop Ladja is first seen in the [[Ancient Ruins]], blocking a young {{Hero 5}} and Prince [[Harry]] from escaping, and easily defeats them in an unwinnable battle. Note that if the player somehow defeats Ladja in this battle, the game will carry on as if though the player lost. When [[Pankraz]] arrives, he summons [[Kon the Knight]] and [[Slon the Rook]] to kill him, but fail to harm the man. Ladja changes his tactics and levies his scythe against the {{Hero 5}}'s neck, threatening to kill the boy if [[Pankraz]] resists any further. The doomed father is beaten senseless by Kon and Slon, and is slain by Ladja with [[Kafrizzle]] mere seconds after telling the boy that his [[Madalena|mother]] still lives. Mocking [[Pankraz]] in death, Ladja notices a [[Gold Orb|peculiar bauble]] among the {{Hero 5}}'s possessions, and crushes it between his palms while uttering foreboding words of relief at its destruction. Their business finished, Ladja and his minions carry the boys off to [[Crocodilopolis|Mount Azimuth]] as slave labor for constructing a temple for the [[Order of Zugzwang]], ignoring [[Saber]] and expecting the cat to return to the wild.
| |
| | |
| He is not seen again until the events of [[Knightmare Towers]], after the {{Hero 5}} defeats Kon and rescues his {{Wife 5}}. He reveals that the woman is of [[Zenithia]]n descent and is destined to bear the Legendary Hero, so he petrifies both of them to prevent this. Unbeknownst to him, she had ''already'' given birth to the [[Hero's Son (Dragon Quest V)|legendary hero]], who along with his [[Hero's Daughter (Dragon Quest V)|twin sister]] would eventually rescue their father eight years hence.
| |
| | |
| The {{Hero 5}} and his children eventually encounter Ladja in the [[Talon Tower]], searching for one of the dragon eyes that can restore the castle of [[Zenithia]] to its full power. Ladja is looking for the eye in order to destroy it, when he comes upon the {{Hero 5}}, recognising him after many years. After a boss battle, he flees in order to warn [[Nimzo|his boss]] of the legendary hero’s arrival and his impending progress. Ladja is seen again in [[Crocodilopolis]], where he kills off [[King Korol]], who was no longer needed by [[Nimzo]] after the reptile's defeat. He is encountered for the last time in [[Mt. Zugzwang]] where he strikes down and wounds [[Madalena]]. The {{Hero 5}} and his {{Party 5}} finally avenge [[Pankraz]]'s death, with Ladja being killed by [[Nimzo]]’s power shortly after being beaten in a boss fight.

| ==Remake alterations==
| |
| Ladja's role in the story of {{Dragon Quest V}} was expanded upon in the remakes.
| |
| *In the {{PlayStation 2}} & [[Nintendo DS]] version, he is the one to imprison The {{Hero 5}} and his {{Wife 5}} in stone, whereas the {{Super Famicom}} version had [[Kon the Knight]] doing so.
| |
| *In the original {{SFC}} release he dies following his loss at [[Talon Tower]], whereas in the remakes, he showed up at [[Crocodilopolis]], he kills [[King Korol]] as punishment for his failure, while in the {{Super Famicom}} Version, the power of Grandmaster [[Nimzo]] did so as he tried to open a pathway to [[Nadiria]].
| |
| | |
| ==Etymology==
| |
| Ladja is an alternate transliteration of ''ladya'' (ладья), the Russian word for the rook chess piece. This is likely an mix-up with [[Slon the Rook]], whose own name means "bishop".
