Old localization	King healer; CureSlime

The King cureslime is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series that was introduced in Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen. They look identical to King slimes, but are made of green-coloured ooze and don a red and purple striped crown.

Characteristics

Despite their English name, they have little in common with normal Cureslimes as far as appearances go and this is reflected in their Japanese name: they are not the result of several Cureslimes fusing together. King cureslimes have access to the most potent healing magic available, using spells like Fullheal and even Omniheal to heal their allies in battle, making them a nuisance to fight against. Like their blue-coloured brothers, the king cureslimes use their immense bulk to their advantage, performing smothering attacks or even leaping suddenly into the air to crash down on their opponents. They can often be found in the lairs of Demon Lords.

"Take care of your health. Don't do anything too dangerous!
Hello! Having fun adventures out there?
Being big is good! Yup!"

King cureslime (PS1)

Quote

"Be goo to yourself, you hear? Don't misooze your body, or you'll regret it.
Goo day to you! How's your adventure gooing? No nasty slurprises, I trust?
When it comes to slimes, the bigger the better!"
