Appearances

Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation

The King is much like his people, and looks down his nose at the common folk. He is more accepting of the Hero, however, and commends them for rising to such status despite their common birth. He brags about having a big heart and holding no reservations about speaking to bumpkins; this proves true when the player solves the riddle of the Edina castle and retrieves the Bottomless pot from the basement. Instead of demanding the return of the treasure his forebearers stole from Persistence, he is delighted that someone finally solved that puzzle and insists that the Hero keep it.

The King's minister sits on his throne at night while he is sleeping, but whether he knows of this or not--or if he'd even mind in the first place-- is unknown.

Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age

The King of Edina travels with his four peers to pay respect to the fallen King of the Necrogond after the Hero kills Baramos, but finds that the castle is still infested with monsters and that they seek to revive their master. He agrees with the King of Aliahan that there is a mastermind behind the plot, but is too afraid to confront the monster after reaching the stairwell leading to the basement of the castle. He and his guard witnessed the abduction of the King of Manoza's bodyguard and the latter attempted to pursue, but found that each step closer to the pit found him bombarded with an evil aura that overwhelmed him.
