In the Dragon Quest III remakes, meddler is a personality that improves strength and resilience growth, but reduces agility, wisdom, and luck growth.

The hero cannot become a meddler at the start of the game.

Other party members have a chance to be a meddler when recruited as any class except gadabout, depending on their stat bonuses.
