Appearance and Personality
The Hero is the main character of Dragon Quest VIII, he is perpetually silent throughout the game. He is half-human and half-Dragovian. His father is a Argonian prince who is the brother of the Argonian king of the kingdom of Argonia, Clavius and his mother, Xia is a Dragovian girl.
In contrast to heroes of other games, this Hero dresses very casually, a consequence of his lowborn upbringing as opposed to being royalty or some kind of chosen one. He also does not appear to wear any kind of armour (irrespective of whatever he may actually have equipped). His red bandana has become an iconic feature of the Hero's. Dragon Quest VIII has a character's in-game appearance change based on their weapon and shield, a first for the series.
