The '''Gadabout''' (known as '''Goof-off''' or '''Jester''' in earlier translations) is a recurring vocation in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. Quite literally a 'joke' character, the Gadabout is poor in nearly every attribute, save for their incredible luck.

Gadabouts, although pretty much useless on the battlefield, have a great amount of luck. This allows them to avoid the affects of debilitating spells more often than other characters. The trade-off for this is the fact that these clowns have minds of their own, and the player cannot always control their actions. In ''[[Dragon Quest III]]'', they are the only class that can turn into a [[Sage]] at [[Alltrades Abbey]] without a [[Book of Satori]].

The Gadabout's attributes decline in all categories might be hard to deal with at first and the skills aren't worth using, but the vocation is required for a character to become a [[Luminary]] and then a [[Summoner]] later on.
