The Great sabrecub is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series.
Introduced in the Super Famicom version of Dragon Quest V, it is the infant form of a Great sabrecat.
Characteristics[edit]
Great sabrecubs have many of the defining characteristics of their mature alternates, such as spotted fur and and a fiery red mane running from head to back. Other than their lacking stature, the only thing missing from the cubs that the adults have are their developed, saber-like fangs.
Appearances[edit]
Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride[edit]
The first appearance of the Great sabrecub, and also the first monster the Hero befriends in the game. Oddly, it is no longer a random encounter monster starting with the Nintendo DS remake, being replaced by the Jailcat, though the Hero still befriends a Great sabrecub. This replacement may have been performed to make its acceptance into the party more convincing, as many NPCs only regard it as a 'strange cat', though a few recognize what it is and what it will eventually become.
Though the species is no longer encountered in the wilderness in the DS and Cell phone versions, they can occasionally be seen fighting in the Monster Arena (see the Gallery below).
