Jade (マルティナ, Marutina) is a character in Dragon Quest XI. She's an expert martial artist and the traveling companion of Rab, who places the safety of the Luminary above all else.

Appearance and Personality

Jade is a beautiful and physically fit young woman with purple eyes and long, dark purple hair tied with a red hairband in a high ponytail that goes past her back and a fringe parted to the right side of her face. She wears a light green-colored halter top attached to a choker with a metal ring over a black midriff-baring tank top and a light green leather wrap worn over a pair of black short shorts. On her hands, she wears light green bracers and black fingerless gloves, and she also wears a pair of light green high-heeled boots with white lacings that reach up to her knee.

Jade is a serious woman who is dedicated to protecting the Luminary no matter the cost, and carries a dignified air about herself. Due to a past incident where she was not able to save the Luminary during their youth, Jade harbors sombre feelings in her heart and occasionally speaks in a blunt, cold manner. Despite these incidental slips, Jade is very soft-spoken towards others and quickly becomes friendly with the party after joining the group. She is closest to Rab due to the years they've spent wandering Erdrea together, and acts like an older sister figure to the Luminary. Jade's favorite foods are sweets, and her innermost wish is for a type that she can eat in abundance with out worry of gaining weight. When stressed, she enjoys burning incense to take her mind off of things and her most beloved possession is the hairclip she wears at all times. When she was a little girl, Jade was fascinated by the tragic love stories of sailors and mermaids after being read a story about them by the Queen of Dundrasil. Having lost her own mother to a pandemic shortly after being born, Jade grew close with the Queen and would be inseparable when she and her husband would visit Heliodor on official business.

Jade's flashing kicks are said to be unmatched in terms of power and, through her training with Rab, are a personalized take on the martial arts teachings of Angri-La that also incorporates the use of spears. Jade's arsenal is augmented by her ample assets as well, being fully aware of her figure and putting it to good use with the skills she learns via the "Allure" section of her character builder. No measurements are ever given, but like a certain mage she will always win the battle of the bulges when a monster attempts to woo her with a puff puff.

Dragon Quest Rivals

Jade is a player avatar and her likeness is featured in the art work for several cards.

Etymology

Jade's original Japanese name, Martina, is the feminine form of the Roman name Martinus. The name ultimately derives from Mars, the Roman god of war, and befits her role as a martial artist. Martina was a 3rd-century patron saint of the city of Rome.

Her localized name, Jade, is derived from the ornamental stone of the same name, which is used in jewelry and artwork. It is also a shade of green, which fits as the majority of her outfit is colored green. Jade was greatly valued in Asian countries. Confucius believed that jade had properties encouraging bravery, honesty, and purity.

Trivia

  • Jade is 165 centimeters tall, or 5' 4.
  • In the international fan poll for Dragon Quest XI that was released by Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu, Jade was voted the most popular female character in the game and the third most popular character overall, with a total of 606 votes.
  • Each of the Luminary's companions represents one of the classes in Dragon Quest III. Jade represents the Martial Artist.
