A Living statue can be fought in Uptaten Towers in Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride.
Detail[edit]
One of the valiant warrior statues in Uptaten Towers has an odd glimmer; if examined it begins watching the Hero and Bianca Whitaker. Talking to it reveals it's actually alive and a battle starts, where it reveals its true form.
Unlike in other installments, this Living statue is a silver palette swap of the Terracotta warrior. In the PS2 version, the Living statue has been redesigned to look like the valiant warrior statue, looking nothing like a Terracotta warrior. In the DS and the Cell phone versions of the game, the battle starts with the Living statue appearing with its PS2 design before immediately destroying that form to reveal its regular form as a silver Terracotta warrior.
