The '''Orochi''' is a many headed monster found in [[Enix America Corporation|Enix's]] ''[[Dragon Warrior III]]''; it and the events surrounding Jipang and the arrival of [[Erdrick]] are based on the Japanese legend of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamata_no_Orochi Yamata no Orochi]. | |||
In ''Dragon Warrior III'', the Orochi demands the sacrifice of young girls from the village of [[Jipang]]. When [[Erdrick]] defeated the Orochi in the [[Cave of Jipang]], it dropped the [[Orochi Sword]], before retreating through a portal to Himiko's Palace in Jipang. When it became clear that the Orochi was pretending to be [[Himiko]], Erdrick again fought the Orochi, slaying it and freeing the people of Jipang. | |||
