Dragon Quest X[edit]

Reappearing from 3.1 onwards, it is first encountered in the Fire region of Nagaland and retains casting Buff, but can now put enemies to sleep with Lullab-Eye. Vicious Dirty Dogus can be encountered in the Netherworld during 5.1.

Etymology[edit]

A Dogu (土偶) is a clay figure made during the Jomon period of Japanese history, ranging from approximately 14,000 to 400 BC. In addition to their archeological significance, they have entered pop culture thanks to ufologist Eric Von Daniken dedicated a chapter to them in his 1968 book, Chariots of the Gods. The presumption being that the unusual shape of the humanoid figures owns to them depicting people wearing complex space suits.
