The '''slime''' is a recurring monster in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. Introduced in the very first game, slimes have since become the series' mascot due to their popularity and iconic qualities. The basic slime has been in every ''Dragon Quest'' to date.

The basic Slime is known for its onion/droplet shape, round eyes, and goofy, toothless smile, the former two traits having become the ones shared amongst nearly all other Slimes.

They are typically the weakest enemies in every game, having no abilities and being easily disposed of, and likely the first monster the player ever encounters in a battle. However, starting with ''Dragon Quest IV'', there will occasionally be stronger Slimes that can call on others of their kind; they may form a [[King Slime]] when eight gather and starting in ''Dragon Quest IX'' three slimes may join to form the Slime Stack.

In some games, slimes can be domesticated into pets and others have gained the ability to speak to humans in their own tongue. In [[Dragon Quest IX]], all slimes have a certain verbal tic, ''goo'', which can replace words like ''good''.
In some games, slimes can be domesticated into pets and others have gained the ability to speak to humans in their own tongue. In recent translations, all slimes have a certain verbal tic of replacing certain words and syllables with similar, 'slimier' ones, such as saying ''goo'' instead of ''good'',  ''gooman'' instead of ''human'', and ''slime'' instead of ''time'', to give just a few (or goo) examples.

As was the case with the previous two titles, the slime is once again the starting monster.

In a break from tradition, the slime is ''not'' the first monster given to the player, who is instead offered a choice of either a [[platypunk]], [[mischievous mole]], or [[dracky]]. The slime does appear on the first island inhabited by wild monsters that the player visits, Infant Isle, along with several uncharted islands, and is likely the first wild monster encountered in the game.
