Lullab-Eye

Lullab-Eye is a recurring skill in the Dragon Quest series. The user's eyes gleam eerily to put a party member to sleep. It is mainly used by bosses and in many games, there is typically no way to resist its hypnotic effects.

In remake versions of the game, Lullab-Eye can be used by Xenlon, as well as Gran Dragon in the GBC version. The effect lasts between 1~4 turns.
