Appearances
Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation
The lair is a simple dungeon, consisting of two floors with a direct route with few branches. Metal slimes appear fairly regularly and in large groups, giving the party a chance to level up before facing the dragon.
If the altar on B2F is examined, it is mentioned as the possible place where sacrifices to Orochi are left.
Treasures
- Mask of Implacability
- Orochi's sword (automatically obtained after battle)

Dragon Quest Tact
Majellan and the Master journey to Orochi's Lair during the Dragon Quest III in search of the missing Mindini. They reach the heart of the volcano and face Orochi in battle after seeing that she has gobbled up Mindini. Afterwards, Orochi spits the pink sanguini up, sending her even further into Manoza.
