She-slime

Dragon Quest Monster She-slime
Art by Akira Toriyama Kanji スライムべス Romanji Suraimu Besu First Appearance Dragon Quest Old Localization red-slime

The She-slime is the first pallet swap monster in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in the very first game, they are basically reddish, ever-so-slightly-stronger slimes.

Despite the name, the scarlet slimes' sexes are as ambiguous as those of regular slimes. The change from red slime may be on account that their modern depictions; with more shades available to them than what the graphical limitations of the NES allowed, the globs are more of an orange shade than red. According to some games, the she-slimes are a different color than ordinary slimes due to an uncommon genetic mutation; this relative rarity has led them to be referred to as "don't-often-see-slimes".

Etymology

Bseu is a corruption of the hebrew letter Beth, the second in their alphabet. In the context of Dragon Quest it means "second slime", referring to the fact that she-slimes are less often encountered than blue slimes.
