Psaro the Manslayer (Necrosaro, Pizzaro) is the central villain of Dragon Quest IV and a recurring monster in the series. He is a powerful demon with a passionate hatred for humanity
Story
As an Enemy
Psaro hates and is in turn reviled by humans, but revered by demons and the inhabitants of Rosehill. When Rose, his lover, was attacked by humans for the ruby tears she sheds as an elf, he protected her by concealing her in a small fortress he built far away from human settlements. The town of Rosehill grew up around it as others looking for shelter from humans relocated there. Psaro paid frequent visits to Rosehill in order to see Rose; he told her of his plans to destroy humanity to free the world for demons, and continued on with righteousness in spite of her pleas to stop and try for coexistence.
Towards the end of the game, Aamon has Rose murdered, causing Psaro to go insane. He loses what little inhibition Rose had given him and uses the Secret of Evolution to transform into a monster, destroying his personality as an unavoidable side-effect. The only thing he remembers is his desire to destroy humanity. However, before he can unleash his worst, the Hero confronts and defeats him, saving the world.
Abilities
Necrosaro is fought at the very end of the original game. He is notably one of the very first, if not the first, transforming final bosses in video game history, setting a longstanding trend. This battle is a test of endurance more than anything, as Necrosaro's only tricks are ones used by other bosses earlier on, so the player should already be familiar with the methods of dealing with them.
Appearances
Dragon Quest IV
The game's main antagonist and, in the remakes, possible party member in the bonus content.
Dragon Quest IX
- "Toughens up with Kabuff, then --- Shazam! --- hits hard with Kazam. Keep him under control with water-based warcraft. A tragic figure who forsook his normal form to wreak revenge on the mortals who murdered his beloved." - Dragon Quest IX bestiary
Psaro appears as a Legacy Boss. He has no current memory of himself, and he challenges the Hero. His map can be dropped from the Dragonlord at higher levels (and thus can be obtained multiple times).
