'''Kiryl''' ('''Clift''' in Japanese, and first localized as '''Cristo''' on the NES) is a character in ''Dragon Quest IV''. He is an apprentice [[Priest|priest]] in the castle of [[Zamoksva]], and a close friend and retainer of Tsarevna [[Alena]]. When the latter escapes from the confines of her room to explore the world, he elects to accompany her along with the court magician [[Borya]].

Kiryl wears a green and white Kalimavkion resembling the traditional hat of a priest, along with a green overcoat and a white long-sleeved undershirt. He carries a long and narrow sword on his back, and keeps a muted orange scarf around his neck.


He is very loyal to Princess/Tsarevna [[Alena]], as evidenced by how he immediately rushes after her when she escapes. It is also made apparent that he has a crush on the princess as well. Aside from his not-so-subtle remarks regarding his feelings for Alena (which somehow always elude her), signs include him keeping a drawing of her hidden in his room. Beyond his relationship with Alena, Kiryl is a very studious and dedicated young man with a deep sense of faith; he has been training for some time to take over as the resident priest of Zamoksva and his room is filled with religious texts.
{{translation|'''Kiryl'''|クリフト,|Kurifuto}} is a character in the {{DQSeries}} that appears as a playable party member in {{DQ4}}. He is an apprentice [[Priest]] in the castle of [[Zamoksva]], and a close friend and retainer of Tsarevna [[Alena]]. When the latter escapes from the confines of her room to explore the world, he elects to accompany her along with the court magician [[Borya]] in {{DQ4 Chapter 2}}.


In the remake version of the game, it is revealed that he is scared heights if you use the party chat in certain areas, most notably [[El Forado]].
He has gone on to make regular appearances in the ''[[Itadaki Street (series)|Itadaki Street]]'' series and is one of the thirteen playable characters in {{Dragon Quest Heroes}}, as well as returning in {{Dragon Quest Heroes II}}. Kiryl also appears as a special hero character in {{DQTact}}.
 
==Appearance and personality==
Kiryl wears a green and white Kalimavkion resembling the traditional hat of a priest, along with a green overcoat and a white long-sleeved undershirt. He carries a long and narrow sword on his back, and keeps a muted orange scarf around his neck. From the [[Nintendo DS]] version onwards, the cross on Kiryl's hat has been altered to a more generic shield emblem in order to avoid any resemblance to real world religious imagery. The same emblem appears on his belt as a buckle and also appears on [[Alena]] and [[Borya]]'s outfits, as well.
 
Like many of the other characters, his appearance in the ''Heroes'' series of games has been embellished slightly. He now wears metal gauntlets over a pair of black gloves and greaves over his boots. His overcoat has more buttons on the front and there is ornate blue and gold designs near the hem. He also carries a spear on his back, which is his weapon of choice. Kiryl has gone on to use spears in other spinoffs, such as {{Tact}}.

Starting with the localization of the {{DS}} remake, Kiryl now speaks with a Slavic dialect. The remakes also revealed that he is scared of heights if you use the [[Party Chat]] in certain areas, most notably [[El Forado]].

====Story====
{{spoiler|start}}
Chapter 2 begins with Alena begging her father, the Tsar of Zamoksva, to let her explore the world, since strong fighters are needed more and more in their troubled times, with the Underworld creeping out of dormancy. However, he refuses, saying that with monsters showing increasing aggression, it's simply too dangerous to let her leave the safety of the castle. Alena goes back to her room but, within a few minutes, has been overcome with frustration and escapes the castle.
{{DQ4 Chapter 2}} begins with [[Alena]] begging her father, the Tsar of [[Zamoksva]], to let her explore the world, since strong fighters are needed more and more in their troubled times, with the [[Nadiria|Underworld]] creeping out of dormancy. However, he refuses, saying that with monsters showing increasing aggression, it's simply too dangerous to let her leave the safety of the castle. [[Alena]] goes back to her room but, within a few minutes, has been overcome with frustration and escapes the castle.


Kiryl and [[Borya]], her retainers, give chase; they're resigned to not being able to make her stay put, but if she's going to leave, they can't allow her to travel alone. The three set out and soon come to a small village being terrorized by a local monster continually demanding young girls as a sacrifice. Alena immediately heads to the local church to offer herself as the next sacrifice, but she has no intention of dying; as soon as the demon shows its face, she, Kiryl and Broya spring into action and take it out, saving the village.
Kiryl and [[Borya]], her retainers, give chase; they're resigned to not being able to make her stay put, but if she's going to leave, they can't allow her to travel alone. The three set out and soon come to a [[Taborov|small village]] being terrorized by a [[Master Kung|local monster]] continually demanding young girls as a sacrifice. [[Alena]] immediately heads to the local [[church]] to offer herself as the next sacrifice, but she has no intention of dying; as soon as the demon and minions]] shows its face, she, Kiryl and [[Borya]] spring into action and take it out, saving the village.


Alena and her companions are not seen again until Chapter 5, when Kiryl has fallen under a dangerous fever and is bedridden in [[Mintos]]. Alena and a band of three mercenaries set out to the reported location of the [[Feverfew root]] to try & recover some to cure Kiryl, but fails. However, [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|The Hero]] succeeds, and upon learning of their destiny the three immediately join the party for the remainder of the game. Some time later, they return to Zamoksva, finding the cause of its troubles to be the demon [[Balzack|Baalzack]], whom they kill in retribution and for the greater good.

Kiryl corresponds to the [[priest]] vocation, and as such he learns strong healing and defensive spells, but is fairly limited in the weapons and armor he can equip.

The NES version of Kiryl is infamous for his poorly-programmed AI, which would continuously cast the [[Whack]] and [[Thwack]] spells above all others, even when healing is necessary and the enemy is immune to them. While this problem was eliminated since the remakes permit manual control, it has become a running gag related to the character, such as his special appearance in ''[[Dragon Quest: Monster Battle Road]]''.

====A.I. Agony====
Kiryl is infamous in the original 8-bit Version of {{IV}} for continuously casting Whack and Thwack during boss battles, wasting his {{MP}} and time when he should be keeping the {{Party 4}} alive. The reason for this is how the A.I. is programmed in the {{NES}} Version: instead of fully comprehending a monsters' resistances and vulnerabilities at the start of battle as in later titles, characters "learn" these aspects as the battle continues. It will take up to three turns to fully understand what will work against a given foe for any character regardless of their wisdom stat. This issue is further compounded by the fact that the game reads each mode switch or transformation an enemy undertakes as an entirely new for A.I. processing, and made even worse by the fact that the final boss has no less than seven "forms".
Thankfully this bad behavior was sorted out in the {{PSX}} remake and all subsequent versions, wherein the A.I. logic processing has been improved to give characters a full understanding of foes at the beginning of battle.

==A.I. Agony==
==Etymology==
Kiryl is infamous in the original 8-bit version of ''IV'' for continuously casting Whack and Thwack during boss battles, wasting his MP and time when he should be keeping the party alive. The reason for this is how the A.I. is programmed in the NES version: instead of fully comprehending a monsters' resistances and vulnerabilities at the start of battle as in later titles, characters "learn" these aspects as the battle continues. It will take up to three turns to fully understand what will work against a given foe for any character regardless of their wisdom stat. This issue is further compounded by the fact that the game reads each mode switch or transformation an enemy undertakes as an entirely new for A.I. processing, and made even worse by the fact that the final boss has no less than seven "forms".  
Kiryl is the Slavic derivative of the Greek Cyril. It means "Lordly". His original English name Cristo is the Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese form of the name Christo, itself a short form of the male names Christopher or Christian.


Thankfully this bad behavior was sorted out in the PSX remake and all subsequent versions, wherein the A.I. logic processing has been improved give characters a full understand of foes at the beginning of battle.
==Trivia==
*In the Japanese games, Kiryl's title is shinkan (神官), a Shinto priest or a person working as a government official at a place of worship, such as a shrine.


==Names==

In the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] localization, Kiryl was originally known as Cristo, and was occasionally identified by the alternate transliterations Crifto, Krifto and Clift.

"Thwack! Thwack! Thwack! Thwack! Thwack! Thwack! Thwack! Thwack! ...Argh! Be gone away!"

—Kiryl, performing his High Tension attack in Dragon Quest Heroes.

Kiryl (クリフト, Kurifuto) is a character in the Dragon Quest series that appears as a playable party member in Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen. He is an apprentice Priest in the castle of Zamoksva, and a close friend and retainer of Tsarevna Alena. When the latter escapes from the confines of her room to explore the world, he elects to accompany her along with the court magician Borya in Chapter 2.

He has gone on to make regular appearances in the Itadaki Street series and is one of the thirteen playable characters in Dragon Quest Heroes, as well as returning in Dragon Quest Heroes II. Kiryl also appears as a special hero character in Dragon Quest Tact.

Appearance and personality[edit]

Kiryl wears a green and white Kalimavkion resembling the traditional hat of a priest, along with a green overcoat and a white long-sleeved undershirt. He carries a long and narrow sword on his back, and keeps a muted orange scarf around his neck. From the Nintendo DS version onwards, the cross on Kiryl's hat has been altered to a more generic shield emblem in order to avoid any resemblance to real world religious imagery. The same emblem appears on his belt as a buckle and also appears on Alena and Borya's outfits, as well.

Like many of the other characters, his appearance in the Heroes series of games has been embellished slightly. He now wears metal gauntlets over a pair of black gloves and greaves over his boots. His overcoat has more buttons on the front and there is ornate blue and gold designs near the hem. He also carries a spear on his back, which is his weapon of choice. Kiryl has gone on to use spears in other spinoffs, such as Tact.

He is very loyal to Tsarevna Alena, as evidenced by how he immediately rushes after her when she escapes. It is also made apparent that he has a crush on the princess as well. Aside from his not-so-subtle remarks regarding his feelings for Alena (which somehow always elude her), signs include him keeping a drawing of her hidden in his room. Beyond his relationship with Alena, Kiryl is a very studious and dedicated young man with a deep sense of faith; he has been training for some time to take over as the resident priest of Zamoksva and his room is filled with religious texts.

Starting with the localization of the DS remake, Kiryl now speaks with a Slavic dialect. The remakes also revealed that he is scared of heights if you use the Party Chat in certain areas, most notably El Forado.

Appearances[edit]

Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen[edit]

Warning: Spoilers!
Click expand to view content

Chapter 2 begins with Alena begging her father, the Tsar of Zamoksva, to let her explore the world, since strong fighters are needed more and more in their troubled times, with the Underworld creeping out of dormancy. However, he refuses, saying that with monsters showing increasing aggression, it's simply too dangerous to let her leave the safety of the castle. Alena goes back to her room but, within a few minutes, has been overcome with frustration and escapes the castle.

Kiryl and Borya, her retainers, give chase; they're resigned to not being able to make her stay put, but if she's going to leave, they can't allow her to travel alone. The three set out and soon come to a small village being terrorized by a local monster continually demanding young girls as a sacrifice. Alena immediately heads to the local church to offer herself as the next sacrifice, but she has no intention of dying; as soon as the demon and minions]] shows its face, she, Kiryl and Borya spring into action and take it out, saving the village.

Alena and her companions are not seen again until Chapter 5, when Kiryl has fallen under a dangerous fever and is bedridden in Mintos. Alena and a band of three mercenaries set out to the reported location of the Feverfew root to try & recover some to cure Kiryl, but fails. However, The Hero succeeds, and upon learning of their destiny the three immediately join the party for the remainder of the game. Some time later, they return to Zamoksva, finding the cause of its troubles to be the demon Baalzack, whom they kill in retribution and for the greater good.

Spells[edit]

Kiryl corresponds to the Priest Vocation, and as such he learns strong healing and defensive spells, but is fairly limited in the weapons and armor he can equip.

The NES Version of Kiryl is infamous for his poorly-programmed AI, which would continuously cast the Whack and Thwack spells above all others, even when healing is necessary and the enemy is immune to them. While this problem was eliminated since the remakes permit manual control, it has become a running gag related to the character, such as his special appearance in Dragon Quest: Monster Battle Road.

A.I. Agony[edit]

Kiryl is infamous in the original 8-bit Version of IV for continuously casting Whack and Thwack during boss battles, wasting his MP and time when he should be keeping the party alive. The reason for this is how the A.I. is programmed in the NES Version: instead of fully comprehending a monsters' resistances and vulnerabilities at the start of battle as in later titles, characters "learn" these aspects as the battle continues. It will take up to three turns to fully understand what will work against a given foe for any character regardless of their wisdom stat. This issue is further compounded by the fact that the game reads each mode switch or transformation an enemy undertakes as an entirely new for A.I. processing, and made even worse by the fact that the final boss has no less than seven "forms".

Thankfully this bad behavior was sorted out in the PSX remake and all subsequent versions, wherein the A.I. logic processing has been improved to give characters a full understanding of foes at the beginning of battle.

Selected quotes[edit]

Main article: Dragon Quest VI Party Chat
Quote

"Indeed, starlit night make me think also of my hometown. My hometown, and face of Tsarevna- Oplya! Erm... Beautiful stars, nyet?"

Kiryl, in Desert Bazaar (Cell phone)

Quote

"He has problem with clever talk? I will therefore refrain from utilising my intimidating vocabulary."

Kiryl, in Woodcutter's cabin (Cell phone)

Quote

"Tree is so much large it is capable to be seen clearly from faraway distance. It is too much ostentatious, I mind...

It is my opinion that things are more prettier when they are being done to moderation, furthermore- Oplya, why do you glare so much fiercely?"

Kiryl, in El Forado (Cell phone)

Quote

"Are we scaling tower without clear purpose? I, I must protest at this decision!

...Wh-What!? Nyet! I resent very much your implication! My opposition is not due to overwhelming fear of high places. Not slightly...! (gulp)"

Kiryl, in Birdsong Tower (Cell phone)

Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation[edit]

Kiryl is present in the near-future version of Reaper's Peak, trying to prevent Alena from climbing down the well to confront Nokturnus.

Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies[edit]

On September 3, 2010, Kiryl began appearing as a special guest at the Quester's Rest in Stornway. This could be downloaded through the DQVC using Nintendo's Wi-Fi channel when it was still available. When spoken to, he will give the Hero different pieces of his outfit is certain conditions are fulfilled.

The player will receive the Accolade Most Holiest Priest if the Hero wears all of the parts of Kiryl's costume.

Dragon Quest & Final Fantasy in Itadaki Street Special[edit]

Along with Alena, Ragnar McRyan and Torneko, Kiryl appears as a playable character in Itadaki Street Special.

Dragon Quest: Monster Battle Road[edit]

Kiryl can be summoned to perform a special attack. After leaping from the wagon, Kiryl tries and fails to cast Thwack multiple times, before finally stomping on the text windows in disgust and (successfully) unleashing a magnified version of Kathwack in the form of angry spirits. Though these ghosts cannot inflict instant death, they deal colossal damage to all enemies.

Dragon Quest Heroes: The World Tree's Woe and the Blight Below and Dragon Quest Heroes II: Twin Kings and the Prophecy's End[edit]

Just as in Monster Battle Road, Kiryl's Coup de Grâce is trying and failing multiple times to cast Thwack before casting Kathwack. He appears alongside his Tsarevna, meeting up with Luceus and Aurora as a rampaging Gigantes is attacking the city of Arba. The two of them are the first of the offworld characters that the heroes meet up with and are pursuing a thief, who turns out to be Robbin' 'Ood. In order to differentiate him from other playable characters, Kiryl uses Spears as his weapon of choice in the game, being able to attacks such as Multithrust. Although he does not possess any healing magic in the first game, he is able to cast Kabuff and Whack. In Heroes II, Kiryl and Alena are among the few returning characters that take part in the story mode, as well. He also gains healing magic in the form of Reheal.

Dragon Quest Rivals[edit]

Kiryl debuted at the beginning of the game, appearing on a three-star rarity card exclusive for Priest characters, casting Thwack. He eventually appeared on another card exclusive for Alena in the seventh card pack, "Strange Tale of Light and Darkness".

Dragon Quest Tact[edit]

Kiryl appears as an S-rank character of the Hero family as part of the limited Dragon Quest IV event, appearing on his own banner along with Bodkin bowyer. He can participate in Rashaverak's Battle Road as a party member. Kiryl also appears as a boss in the special Three Heroes boss battle along with Alena and Ragnar.
