Art by Akira Toriyama Japanese キングコブラ Romaji Kingu Kobura First appearance Dragon Quest II

A Cobra king (formerly Big Cobra or KingCobra) is an enemy that was introduced in Dragon Quest II. They are human-sized hybrids of cobras and coral snakes, and are just as terribly venomous as that combination would imply.

Cobra kaiser

Simply an obnoxiously colored cobra king, the cobra kaiser won't turn your character to stone or any of that other mumbo jumbo. It can, however, poison a character with a melee attack.
