The Killer gila is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, first introduced in Dragon Quest IV.
Characteristics
Killer gilas are large quadrupedal amphibians with ochre-colored skin, a tall fin with a pink membrane on its back, four pairs of frills on its face, and long tongues. They possess features of many real-world animals such as the Japanese giant salamander, the axolotl due to the frills on its face, and both the gila monster and Mexican beaded lizard due to their poisonous abilities. Starting with the Monsters series of games, they have become members of the Dragon family. The gilas have made regular appearances in spinoff games in the series, but did not return to the main series until X, like many other monsters.
