The salamarauder is a monster from Dragon Quest IX. It is a stronger, pale variant of the wooper trooper.

Characteristics

Like wooper troopers, salamarauders are small, warrior-esque monsters based off the axolotl, their paler complexion making them more reminiscent of the real-life animal.

They can dodge attacks and redirect them in much the same way as their blue brethren, and can also breathe cool breath and block attacks with their shield.

Salamarauders are also involved in one of the game's many quests, specifically #062, Brian's Dyin' Wish.
