Art by Akira Toriyama Japanese 黄金兵長 Romaji Ōgon heichō First appearance Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age

Gyldenbritches is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, first appearing in Dragon Quest XI.

It is a golden-armored variant of the Restless armour.

Characteristics

Gyldenbritches is a golden suit of armour armed with a longsword and a round shield. Like their iron counterparts, the suits of armor appear to be completely empty inside. Their main distinguishing characteristic is the Viking skull symbol emblazoned on their shield and right pauldron. The symbol features a horned viking helmet and a pair of crossed swords. These golden captains are the loyal underlings of the Spectral Sentinel Gyldygga, commanding her foot soldiers and carrying out her every command.
