Appearances
Dragon Quest
The Hero learns the spell at level 19, and may cast it for 5 MP. It deals 58~65 damage in the original version, and 50~65 damage in all subsequent versions. As combat was limited to one enemy per battle, it was a single-target spell.

The Prince of Cannock learns Sizzle at level 18, and he can cast it for just 4 MP. The spell deals 17~33 damage in the original version, and 50~65 in the SNES and GBC versions.
In the mobile version, the spell has been redacted to affect only one group of enemies, as in later games, and its cost has risen to 5 MP.
