Fizzle is a recurring spell in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in the original game, it is a spell that attempts to seal the spells of the target/targets, preventing them from casting magic.
Interestingly, Fizzle does not prevent those afflicted from being able to speak as is the case with instances of spell-sealing seen in other media. This can be seen during the in-battle Party chat seen in the PSX version of VII.
Localization History
The original Japanese versions of the Monsters: Joker spinoffs introduced a single-target spell by the name of Mahotomu and continued to use the name Mahotōn for the multi-target spell. The English localization team decided to use the name Fizzle for the new single-target spell in the games, while using the new name Kafizzle for the original spell, which always affected a group of enemies. This practice has become standard for games the feature both spells.
