The '''Elysium bird''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest III}}.

This flying doctor capable of keeping its allies alive through [[Multiheal]]. It is irritatingly resistant to debilitating spells in each appearance, making it far from a bird of paradise.
