Zoma, the Master Archfiend of the Dark World, is the final villain and chief antagonist of Enix's Dragon Quest III.

Characteristics
Story
Near the end of the game, he is revealed to be the master of the archfiend Baramos, whom had been previously alluded to as the final boss to the game. Zoma resides in Charlock Castle in Alefgard, where he feeds on the fear and despair of the kingdom's inhabitants. Being an embodiment of evil, Zoma is weakened by bright light and harmed by all healing magic. Zoma resides on the basement floor of the castle along with three sub-bosses. He approaches and speaks to the hero prior to allowing his three subordinates to fight the hero's party before him.
Zoma first appears during the celebrations following the defeat of Baramos. In the original game's version of this scene, his presence is that of a booming voice only, but he takes a visual manifestation in all remakes. Zoma threatens the inhabitants of the world of Dragon Quest III, claiming he will soon take control of their world and plunge it into darkness as he did with Alefgard.
Appearances
Dragon Quest III
Zoma is a demon of unfathomable power, whose sorcery is so great that he was able to imprison the kingdom of Alefgard in a shroud of eternal night. Due to this, he was able to sustain himself on the despair of the people trapped within, bolstering his physical might so much that he was able to shatter a sword made of Orichalcum.
