Lord Robert, also known as Rab (ロウ, ), is a character in Dragon Quest XI. Despite his advanced age, he displays considerable abilities as a martial artist and magical prowess.

Appearance and Personality

Rab is an elderly gentleman with a bushy pair of eyebrows and a mustache, his head covered by a red fez. He wears a red open vest with intricate yellow patterns over a long-sleeved white tunic and a black sash worn around his waist. He also wears a pair of orange trousers, leather shoes worn with yellow socks, and he walks around with the help of a cane. Rab is always seen carrying a large backpack, as well.

Although he looks like a simple traveler, his background and character are shrouded in mystery.
