'''Gracos''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} and antagonist in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest VI}} as one of the Dread Fiends.


He is a bulky [[Merman]]-like {{MFamilies}} wielding a [[Gracos' trident|polearm]].

==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
Gracos is likely a more powerful form of a Merman, as he shares many of his characteristics with this {{MFamilies}}, particularly the placement of his fins. Gracos differs from this common monster by means of his greater girth, thicker lips, wristbands and weapon: a polearm with a crescent-shaped blade on the end. In his original appearance, Gracos had green scales, changing to blue scales when he reappeared in {{VII}}, which he kept for many years in spinoff games in the series. However, for the [[Nintendo DS]] remake of {{VI}}, Gracos instead had the purple and red color scheme of his descendant. In the [[Nintendo 3DS[] remake of {{VII}} and other games going forward, the sea demon reverted to his original green coloration.

Having first appeared as a boss {{MFamilies}}, Gracos typically fulfills that same role in his other appearances and is powerful as such. He possesses great physical might and is adept at using magic and abilities as well, in particular having an affinity for both ice magic and breath attacks.

Making his second appearance as a boss, Gracos is the one responsible for flooding [[Wetlock]] in the past and must be confronted in order to set things right. When the {{Party 7}} reaches his throne room in the Sunken Citadel, he will send a group of three [[Sunken spirit]]s to fight them, which are not too difficult. Gracos will then challenge the {{Party 7}} himself. [[Florin|Old Man Riffer]] will arrive to lend his aid, playing his torban to allow the spirits to rest. He will also restore the party's {{HP}} and {{MP}} completely before the battle.

====Strategy====
The battle against Gracos is one of the toughest the player will have faced thus far. He can attack twice in one round and hit the party very hard. He is immune to [[Sap]] and has a high resistance to [[Dazzle]]. Finally, he has a very high resistance to ice spells and skills so these should be avoided completely.

Do not rely on [[Florin|Old Man Riffer]] to heal the {{Party 7}}. {{Maribel}} or [[Ruff] should carry the [[Staff of salvation]] in their inventory since they both have high {{Agility}}. It is also recommended that each {{Party 7}} member have at least one [[Antidotal herb]] in case they are {{Envenomate}}d by Gracos's mist. [[Hustle Dance]] can also be a major boon if the player has managed to advance to become a {{Luminary V}}. The battle can be very difficult, as the player is unable to return to the present and change their vocations once the flood has begun.
