In his initial form, he appears as demonic old man with golden orbs. Using the orbs, he can roast the party with searing flames (168~188) or lacerate them with frigid ice (124~134), both of which ignore Insulatle and can only be reduced by armour resistances or defending. His attack while he is cackling insanely increases his strike's power by 25%, and damage dealt with the energy orbs adds +67 to each strike. The orb can potentially strike a single character twice and the added damage cannot be reduced, even with defence.

| Romaji | Desutamuua |

Mortamor is a character and recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series that appears as the main antagonist and final boss of Dragon Quest VI.
He is the mysterious Archfiend who sent Murdaw, Jamirus, Gracos, and Dhuran to conquer the Lower World and the Upper World. He lurks in his dreadlair seated at the far reaches of a hellish dimension known as the Dread Realm.
Characteristics[edit]
When first confronted, Mortamor appears to be an old demon with gold orbs levitating before each of his hands. Mortamor himself states that this is merely a facade and will, upon first defeat, emerge from the two fused golden orbs as a hulking, winged demon with spiked shoulders. When this form is defeated Mortamor will literally cast aside his body, becoming the disembodied demonic face and pair of hands he is best known as.
Mortamor is similar to Zoma in that he influences the world through proxies, preferring to revel in the suffering of the humans trapped in his living nightmare than do his own dirty work. Mortamor's plans are more precise than his Erdrick trilogy counterpart, however; rather than sending one lieutenant to cause undirected chaos, Mortamor uses four agents to target specific bastions of the mortal realm that would inhibit his conquest. By sealing away Alltrades Abbey, Medford's Manor, Sorceria, and Cloudsgate Citadel, Mortamor displays a keen understanding of the capabilities of humans and their potential to overthrow him should he attack directly.
Personality-wise, Mortamor is extremely arrogant, condescending and egotistical, even in comparison to the other Demon Lords of the franchise. He does not view the party as threats whatsoever, even after they overcame his numerous assets. Even upon defeat, Mortamor remains in denial of the party' powers up to his last breath. When confronted by Nokturnus, Mortamor drops his narcissistic persona and expresses fear of being challenged by a stronger being but recklessly engages him in combat nevertheless.

Moratamor appears as a Legacy Boss, obtained after completing Quest #158 (or received at special events). He will become enraged once his health drops to orange range. Mortamor is unique among bosses in that he is accompanied by two enemies that are not found anywhere else, unlike Hootingham-Gore and Shogum, who are accompanied by common monsters. He is also unique among Legacy Bosses in that he is the only one who attacks a single time per turn (but the accompanying claws equate to one or two extra actions, depending on whether one or both are present).

DeathMore is present in all of his forms from VI, though his hands are part of his final form now and not separate monsters. The player will have to obtain nearly all other members of the boss family to breed all of his forms. He is also the boss of Old Man's Gate and is considered by the residents of GreatTree to be the strongest of the evil lords.

Dragon Quest Rivals[edit]
Mortamor's first form appeared on three separate cards. He first appeared as a legend rare card in the 3rd pack, "Phoenix and the Ringing of the Earth", as well as appearing on the skill card for Evil Prayer. When the app's name changed to Rivals Ace, he returned again in the third card pack on a card entitled "Mortamor, King of the Dread Realm". Due to the game's end of service, Mortamor's other forms never appeared in the game and his place is taken by Nokturnus as the final boss of Mortamor's Dreadlair in the Solo Battle Adventure mode.

Trivia[edit]
- Due to Mortamor being able to use Magic Burst, it is likely that he had Gracos seal away Sorceria so he would be the sole individual capable of casting the devastating spell.
- Unlike the other Demon Lords in the Zenithian Trilogy, Mortamor was given no further explanation as to his origins or personality in the remakes. However, Mortamor's origin was revealed in the Dragon Quest Monsters+ manga series.
- It is reasonable to assume that Mortamor's yellow orbs are his source of energy, due to the fact that they are used to transform him. In Tact, they are known as the Narrow World Orbs, referencing his Dread Realm being a fissure between the Real and Dream worlds
- It appears that Mortamor has some unknown history with Nokturnus.
- In spinoff games such as Super Light, Mortamor is given various titles in order to differentiate which form he takes. In his first form, he is known as the "King of the Dread Realm" (狭間の王, Hazama no Ō) and the "Old King" (老王, Ro Ō). His second form is known as the "King of Wrath" (憤怒の王, Fundo no Ō) while his third form is known as the "King of Dreams" (夢幻の王, Mugen no Ō) or the Archfiend (大魔王, Daimaō).
