The Forky pig is a monster in the game Dragon Quest VII. They can be found in the Western Cave and the Dungeon of Descent.
Characteristics[edit]
Forky pigs are small, ugly anthropomorphic pigs with the stereotypical characteristics of a cartoon devil, although their evil abilities aren't to be underestimated. Their pudgy porcen faces hide the ability to fire off a fiercely cold breath attack that strikes all enemies and they can launch the troublesome Kasap spell to lower the defence of all enemies. Their bodies are mostly covered in a thick stringy purple fur and they have a small pair of black dark wings on their back, as well as a long forked tail. They wield black pitchforks that they not only poke and prod with, but also defend against incoming attacks.
