The Toxic toad is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, first appearing in Dragon Quest III. Much like their non-venomous counterparts, these amphibians made a reappearance in Dragon Quest XI after nearly three decades.
Characteristics[edit]
Toxic toads are amphibians that have grown to the size of men. Much like poisonous frogs in the real world, they have warty blue-green skin that warns attackers of their poisonous attacks and are a nuisance for novice adventurers. The toads strike at opponents with their long purple tongues that are seen poking out of their mouths. When they reappeared in XI, the toxic toads also gained the ability to breathe out poisonous vapors as well and can bolster the defence of their allies with a protective song. When the toads have gone vicious, their attacks and exhalations can inflict envenomation instead of normal poison.
