Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age[edit]
The choker can be found in the ruins of the Zwaardsrust Region in a pile of gold coins behind a door that requires the Magic Key to open. It cannot be equipped as an accessory, but if the player attempts to use it, they will receive an ominous warning and think better of it. The familiar tune of a character equipping a cursed item from the older games can be heard.
Dragon Quest Walk[edit]
The choker can be received as a reward during the Dragon Quest I event. Unlike its original appearance, the choker has a defence bonus of +5 and increases the wearer's resistance to instant death effects by 5%.
Captain N: The Game Master[edit]
The Cursed necklace turns the wearer into a target for the legendary Golden Dragon. It's placed on Simon Belmont by The Dragonlord as a means of getting rid of him and The N Team.
Simon was able to remove it through the use of some Fairy water, and tossed it onto The Dragonlord, who was forced to destroy the dragon as a result.
