| First appearance | Dragon Quest II: Luminaries of the Legendary Line |
Characteristics[edit]
The Berserker appears as a crazed (or simply really, really happy) Humanoid wielding a hand axe and shield, as well as a full tunic and cape. The fact he appears fully clothed, even having a decorative circlet on, suggests a reasonably high level of intelligence. When Berserkers first appeared, they had a completely black head, but some modern appearances gave them a yellow head like the rest of their bodies.
