The ''Purple Orb'' is one of the legendary [[Six Orbs]] that appear throughout the series. | |||

==={{DQ3}}=== | |||
The Purple Orb required to hatch [[Ramia]], and it is held by [[Pimiko]] in the village of [[Jipang]]. [[Pimiko]] is really the [[Orochi]] in disguise. By entering the [[Orochi's Lair|Cave Northeast of Jipang]] and fighting the [[Orochi]], the {{Hero 3}} and {{Party 3}} cause it to retreat into a nearby [[teleportal]]. Taking the magical gate themselves, the {{Party 3}} are transported to in [[Pimiko]]'s chamber in [[Jipang]]. After fighting the [[Orochi]] a second time in the chamber, she leaves behind the Purple Orb after being killed. | |||

===[[ | The [[Purple Orb]] is an important item that must be found at [[Master Rylus]]'s burned down house in [[Farebury]] before the final battle with [[Rhapthorne]]. | ||

The | The Purple Orb reappears in {{Dragon Quest IX}} as a very exotic [[alchemy]] ingredient, used for some of the highest [[Lists_of_alchemy_recipes_in_Dragon_Quest_IX|alchemy recipes]]. It is a rare drop from [[Dhoulmagus]], [[Rhapthorne]], and (at certain level ranges) [[Nokturnus]] legacy bosses. | ||
==={{DQ11}}=== | |||
The Purple Orb is found in a small chamber beneath the ruins of the [[Zwaardsrust Region]]. A [[troubadour]] in the nearby [[Warrior's Rest Inn]] sings a song that hints at the orb's location. The [[treasure chest]] with the orb is behind a red locked door, meaning the [[party]] must obtain the [[Magic key]] in [[Phnom Nonh]] first. [[Rab]]'s party talk dialogue after the magic key is collected mentions the locked door in Zwaardsrust--another helpful hint for first-time players. | |||

During Act 2, the Purple Orb is in the possession of the Spectral Sentinel [[Tyriant]], who uses it to create a shadow double of himself in the boss battle against him. When Tyriant falls, the {{Hero 11}} regains the Purple Orb. This makes the Purple Orb the first orb regained in Act 2, as Tyriant is the first Spectral Sentinel to be defeated. | |||
{{ | [[Jasper]] also appears to be holding and using the Purple Orb when he attacks the party at [[Yggdrasil]]. It is never specifically mentioned that this is the Purple Orb, but from the look of the item and the in-game context, it seems very likely. | ||
