Murdaw (ムドー romanized as Mudou, Mudo in fan translations) appears as the primary antagonist in Dragon Quest VI. He terrorizes the world, and any who challenge him never return. As soon as the game begins, the player character, Carver, and Milly go to fight Murdaw. Upon reaching him, he banishes all of them to the Dream World.
Characteristics
Murdaw is one of the Dread Fiends, and is the first you will encounter. He is the seal on Alltrades Abbey and defeating him allows access to the class system. Murdaw is fought three times.
Abilities
The first encounter with Murdaw is in his Dream World stronghold, the Underkeep. Upon defeating him, it is revealed he is not the actually the real Murdaw at all.....
The real Murdaw is fought in his keep in the Real World. He is assisted by two prickly pranksters, and can summon more of them as well as harmours during the battle.
After defeating him, Murdaw gets angry and fights at full power.
Other Appearances
Outside his main role in Dragon Quest VI, Murdaw also makes appearances in these titles.
- "Casts Kasap to curb his enemies' enthusiasm, then curbs it further with Dazzleflash and Disruptive Wave. Gains a hold over people by plunging them into a world of nightmares from which they can't escape. Never sleeps himself." - Dragon Quest IX bestiary
Murdaw appears as a Legacy Boss in Dragon Quest IX. His map can be dropped from Baramos at higher levels (and thus can be obtained multiple times). He's slightly more powerful, and relies on debuffs rather than attack magic. Similar to Baramos, Murdaw is vulnerable to ice magic.
