A ''' | A '''Treasure chest''' is a recurring element in the {{DQSeries}} as well as most role-playing games. It appears in various locations throughout the games and often contains an item or [[gold]] which the player receives upon opening the chest. Beginning in {{DQ3}} some chests are traps which contain enemies such as a [[Cannibox]], [[Mimic]] and [[Pandora's box]]. To counter this, the spell [[Peep]], was created to determine whether a chest had treasure or an enemy due to it's glow. | ||
[[Category:Recurring elements]]{{Wikia}} | Later installments added pots, cupboards, drawers, etc. with a similar function. Generally, treasure chests are used to distribute items throughout the locations in each game. The [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] ports of {{DQ}} and {{DQ2}} had most chests respawning even if they had key items provided they weren't with the characters' possessions. {{III}} and up had them remaining permanently empty. | ||
==Details in specific titles== | |||
==={{DQ2}}=== | |||
*The [[Lighthouse (Dragon Quest II)|Lighthouse]] chest containing the Star Sigil has several [[Gremlin]]s within who attack The [[Luminaries]]. | |||
*The [[Sea Cave]] has several trap chests that sap the leader of the party of {{HP}}. | |||
==={{DQ3}}=== | |||
*The chests of the 4F of the [[Pyramid]] each contains a group of [[Mummy boy]]s which drop the treasure upon defeat. | |||
==={{DQ5}}=== | |||
*Chests containing [[Mimic]]'s in the original {{Super Famicom}} version would frequently respawn, thus allow the {{Party 5}} to stock up on [[Mini medal]]s | |||
==={{DQ7}} ([[Nintendo 3DS]] Remake)=== | |||
*Due to the graphic upgrade, treasure chests were added to the overworld. | |||
==={{DQ8}}=== | |||
*This was the first game in the main series to incorporate chests in the overworld due to making the exploration rewarding. The {{3DS}} remake added Blue Chests with random and respawning treasures. The newly added [[Memories Lane]] included Purple Chests containing stat boosting seeds which like the Blue Chest respawn every 24 hours. | |||
==In Animation== | |||
*In the ''[[Captain N: The Game Master]]'' episode "The Trojan Dragon", Kevin Keene/Captain N, Duke and Princess Lana were given a map leading them to a chest containing the [[Fire blade|Flame sword]] and [[Silver shield]] in the Cave of the [[Knight Aberrant|Axe knight]]. | |||
