'''Ragin' Contagion''' (病魔パンデルム ''Panderum Contagion'') is a boss in ''[[Dragon Quest IX]]'', fought inside the [[Quarantomb]], where long ago, it was sealed away by the people of [[Coffinwell]] to keep it from infecting the residents. However, after the Earthquake at the beginning, the [[Quarantomb]] was un-sealed, freeing '''Ragin' Contagion''' and cursing the habitants of [[Coffinwell]] once again. During the fight, [[Dr. Phleming]] fixed the pot that once contained the contagion, sealing it away once again.
