Malroth is a large demon covered mostly in blue scales (green in the original NES ''Dragon Quest II'') and wearing only a necklace with a skull on it. He has six limbs, four of which appear to be arms, a massive pair of wings and a serpent for a tail. His mouth is always shown as being a wide-opened grin, fangs clearly visible. | Malroth is a large demon covered mostly in blue scales (green in the original NES ''Dragon Quest II'') and wearing only a necklace with a skull on it.

Being a god of destruction, Malroth is clearly powerful and capable of both altering his stats and those of his opponents, at least in the installment he originates from. He is also capable of breathing fire and can launch crippling physical attacks. | Being a god of destruction, Malroth is clearly powerful and capable of both altering his stats and those of his opponents, at least in the installment he originates from.

Malroth is the leader of everything evil in [[Alefgard]]. He is the true being responsible for the chaos spreading from one town to the next and the destruction of the once beautiful forests and rivers. He is the one behind the attempted annhilation of [[Moonbroke]] and all of its citizens, though he makes the mistake of leaving the [[Princess of Moonbrooke|Princess]] alive, and able to get her revenge upon the demon. | Malroth is the leader of everything evil in [[Alefgard]].

The player's party does not come face-to-face with the mighty demon until after Hargon is slain. When the party tries to move away from Hargon's throne their path will be blocked by flames and the floor will begin to break apart, heralding Malroth's return. Though successful in defeating Hargon, the sorcerer summoned the god of destruction in death, leaving the heroes to contend with him in the final battle of the game. | The player's party does not come face-to-face with the mighty demon until after Hargon is slain.
