{{Translation|'''Morrie Mozzarella'''|モリー, Morī}} is a mostly comical character, introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest VIII]]''. He also acts as the "host" for the ''[[Dragon Quest: Monster Battle (series)|Monster Battle]]'' sub-series.

Although Morrie was introduced as an NPC in the original PS2 release of the ''DQ VIII'', he has been upgraded to a playable character for the 3DS version. In combat, he is capable of wielding clubs, boomerangs, and claws, as well as utilizing the abilities of monsters from his infamous pit and his own passion-driven powers.

===''Dragon Quest VIII'' [[Sony PlayStation 2]] Version===

[[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|The Hero]] and company first encounter Morrie on the rooftop of his [[Monster Arena]]. Sensing something special in [[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|the Hero]], Morrie sends him to capture three "infamous monsters" to deem the Hero worthy to enter his arena. Once the party has succeeded in making the captures, Morrie allows The Hero to compete in his Monstrous Pit on one condition: he must compete with '''GUSTO!'''

*'''A strange note containing information about a monster Morrie is seeking.''' (Description when selecting of of Morrie's Memos in any version of ''Dragon Quest VIII''.)

===''[[Dragon Quest IX]]''===

*Prior to the release of the 3DS version in Japan, Dragon Quest VIII's producer Noriyoshi Fujimoto stated that if Morrie were classified with a vocation, he would be an evolved mix of a [[Minstrel]] and [[Martial Artist]].

*Morrie has the lowest [[resilience]] of all characters in ''VIII''. This is due to both his age and beanpole build. He also has the highest [[agility]] of the male party members.
