The Trigertaur is a recurring monster in the series, first appearing in Dragon Quest IX. It is a winged beastman warrior with the upper body and tail of a tiger and the lower portion of a horse.
Characteristics[edit]
Trigertaurs are beastmen with the upper bodies of anthropomorphic tigers, having a pair of bat-like wings on their backs, and the lower bodies of their horses. Instead of a horse's tail, they have a tiger's tail. The tigers wear simple red vests on their torsos and wield sharp tridents in their hands, which they use to perform sweeping attacks. They have some knowledge of magic, being able to weaken their opponents' defences before going on the offensive.
