The '''Ra's Mirror''', originally the '''Mirror of Ra''' and later '''Lar Mirror''', is a recurring item in the Dragon Quest series. It is typically used to reveal a character's true form. | The '''Ra's Mirror''', originally the '''Mirror of Ra''' and later '''Lar Mirror''', is a recurring item in the Dragon Quest series.

In the remake of [[Dragon Quest V]] a book in [[Heaven's Above Abbey]] called 'The Maiden of Abovitall Tower' reads "There was once a girl who climbed a tower where the Goddess was said to live, because she wanted to find out if the Goddess really existed. The Goddess put many obstacles in the young girl's path, but she courageously persevered until she reached the top of the tower. There, legend has it that the Goddess rewarded her by bestowing on her a mysterious mirror with the power to reflect the truth". | |||
This is obviously referring to Ra's Mirror. The girl must have brought it back to [[Abovitall Tower]] for some reason because, you, later in the game go to Abovitall Tower and go through probably the same annoying puzzles she went through to get the Ra's Mirror. | |||

The Lar Mirror can be found in the Dark Palace near the end of the game. It is used in battle to change back creatures who use transform to turn into party members. | The Lar Mirror can be found in the Dark Palace near the end of the game.

Interestingly, if used on [[Mortamor]] nothing will happen and it will not reveal his "true" form. This was probably just an oversight. | |||
