Dragon (vocation)
The Dragon (ドラゴン, doragon) is a secret vocation in Dragon Quest VI that can only be unlocked if a character speaks with the abbot of alltrades while holding a Dragonic Diligence scroll.
Characteristics
Becoming a dragon will turn even the scrawniest character into a raw powerhouse, supported by the best breath attacks in the game. Though there are substantial reductions to agility, wisdom, and MP, the straightforward nature of the vocation makes these cuts a moot point. Simply put, the dragon is an overwhelming powerhouse that should be kept as far from the Wagon as possible at all times.
Preemptive strikes
Being a dragon increases the chance of catching enemies off-guard and rendering them unable to act for the first turn, with each rank multiplying the base chance by a certain degree.
