The Mischievous mole is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, first appearing in Dragon Quest IV.

They are very simple-looking monsters that appear in many games. They are bipedal, gray moles with a wooden shovel in one hand and a glaring gaze etched on their faces, as well as wearing light grey gloves.
