First appearance | Dragon Quest III |
Old localization | KingSquid |
The King squid is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, first appearing in Dragon Quest III. It is a large aggressive squid that terrorises seafaring adventurers.
Characteristics[edit]
King squids are enormous squids with light blue bodies and darker blue tinges on its head, mantle, and the suckers on its many tentacles. In the Super Famicom version of III, the squids' bodies are more purple with a darker shade of blue on their heads and mantles. This color scheme is used in its first two appearances in the Monsters series, as well as the 2D version of XI. They are among the most dangerous monsters that can be encountered on the high seas, particularly if multiple are encountered in the same battle. The squids possess high attack power and often have the ability to attack twice per turn. Instant death spells often work as an effective strategy to counteract their high HP pools. In VIII, Squid kids began appearing as their infant forms.
In XI, King squids have grown to truly colossal proportions to match those of its fellow squid Khalamari and are aided by their left and right tentacles in battle. Its tentacles attack on their own and can shield its main body from harm.
