Monster Heart
A Monster Heart is an item in Dragon Quest VII and Dragon Quest Monsters: Caravan Heart.
Description
A Monster Heart is the crystallization of a monster's essence. It holds the characteristics of a monster. When a person takes this heart to the Temple of Dharma, or an abbot or abbess from such a temple, the person can assume that monster's 'class' to acquire the qualities of said monster, eventually becoming it.
In Dragon Quest Monsters: Caravan Heart, two monster hearts are applied to a single monster when it goes through reform.
Acquiring Monster Hearts
Dragon Quest VII
A monster whose class can be undertaken has a rare chance of dropping a Monster Heart with the exception of two monsters:
The EvilMech will not drop an EvilMech Heart because it is only fought once in the game.
The boss golem in Rexwood Tower will not drop a Golem Heart because it is only fought once. However, Golemugas may drop a Golem Heart.
The Lucky Panel game in the Casino will sometimes have Monster Hearts as prizes.
Dragon Quest Monsters: Caravan Heart
Monster hearts may drop from any non-boss monster (and a few boss monsters, such as the gargoyle) shortly after acquiring the heart stealing device.
