Mercury is a character and eligible party member in the DS remake of Dragon Quest VI.

Recruitment

Mercury will join the party at Suite Dreams after sharing 20 dreams with other players, or after beating the game. In both cases he is found resting in a quiet glade behind the building, and must be cornered. A Masked Thug is there to give assistance, similar to how Carver helped box in Peggy Sue.
