The Killipede is a monster that appears exclusively in Dragon Quest II.

It is a venomous centipede with a sturdy armored carapace.

Characteristics

Killipedes are giant armored centipede-type monsters, however (like real centipedes) it only have fifteen pairs of legs. Their body is made from navy blue and orange armored segments and light green legs. At the last segment of the tail a poisonous sting is found and the first segment of all is the wine red unarmored head that contains a pair of eyes and two violet fangs. Its armored plates offer it a high degree of protection, but they have no form of defense against attack magic.
