—Healie, in VI (DS)

Healie (ホイミン, Hoimin) is a minor character and temporary party member in Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen, an optional character and eligible party member in Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation, and has a cameo in Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King. He is a Healslime who seeks to become a human. Whether this is the same character in each appearance or just a homage is unknown, and left open to player interpretation.

Appearances

Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen

Click expand to view content

Ragnar McRyan first encounters him in his chapter within the Auld Well, at which point he joins the party. Healie uses his knowledge of local geography to help Ragnar in his quest to locate the missing children of Burland. He proves to be an extremely useful ally in battle, as Ragnar is incapable of using any spells, so the only way he can heal himself without Healie's help is with items such as Medicinal herbs. Healie can also contribute to combat, though the damage he is capable of dealing is fairly unimpressive. As an AI-controlled character, his behavior is also somewhat random and unreliable.

Towards the end of Chapter 1, he states that he has resolved to become a human. He apparently continues to travel with Ragnar because they can be found together in Chapter 5, shortly before the fight with Balzack. Healie has succeeded in becoming a human through unknown means and has taken on the sprite of a bard. This, however, is the last he is seen in the game; after Ragnar joins the Hero's party, it seems Healie continues his travels alone.

Quote "Remember, you can't goo easy on other healslimes, even if they do remind you of your pal Healie." Healie, in Loch Tur (DS)

Quote "That's him! That's the human who refoozed to take me with him! What a horrible man! (slurp) But I suppooze he did me a favour. If I had gone with him, I'd never have met you!" Healie, in Loch Tur (DS)

Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation

In the SNES version of VI, Healie can be randomly recruited when a Healslime is defeated in battle and one of the party members is a rank 2 Monster Master.

In the Nintendo DS remake of VI, Healie can be recruited in Clearvale after obtaining the Flying Bed. In the ending credits, if Healie is interacted with in Somnia, he mentions his desire of becoming a human, foreshadowing his role in Dragon Quest IV.
