The Hell gladiator is a recurring Undead monster in the Dragon Quest series that was introduced in Dragon Quest VI.

Characteristics

Four armed foul undead warriors that wield four weapons with worrying skill and success. Their many arms mean they can hack and slash and attack twice in a turn, dealing extra demonic damage with their violent slash skill. Their beastly breath fumes are also a force to be reckoned with as they can use Burning Breath to fully paralyze a person where they stand.
