The '''platinum king jewel''' (originally '''PlatKing''' / '''Platinum King''' due to display constraints) is a recurring monster in the ''[[Dragon Quest series]]''. Introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest VII]]'', it is a [[gem slime]] variant that normally acts as the single largest source of experience in the games it appears in, above even that of the [[metal king slime]]. | |||
==Characteristics== | |||
Platinum king jewels are silver-colored versions of gem slimes. Like their golden counterparts, platinum king jewels are shaped like gems and have tiara-esque crowns. | |||
Like other metal monsters, platinum king jewels have absurd defense, speed, and a notorious habit for fleeing from battles. Unlike other metal monsters, however, the platinum king jewel also has high HP, normally around 200, which means landing a critical hit is the only possible way to defeat one short of an obscene amount of good luck. | |||
==Appearances== | |||
===''[[Dragon Quest IV]]''=== | |||
Absent from the original release, platinum king jewels appear as monsters in the enhanced remakes' bonus dungeon alongside several other monsters from ''Dragon Quest VII'', a game that preceded the enhanced remakes. | |||
===''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''=== | |||
Platinum king jewels (then '''PlatKing''') are first seen, being one of a few palette swaps of the Gem Slime. The heart of a platinum king jewel can also be obtained as a means of assuming that monster class. | |||
