Zombie gladiator

From Dragon Quest Wiki

The Zombie Gladiator is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, first appearing in Dragon Quest VI. It is a quadruple-armed undead monster that wields different weapons.

Characteristics[edit]

Ancient, wicked warriors that haven't lost their bothersome battle techniques, even after centuries of sleep. In the upper right arm, it wields a hand axe, while its upper left arm wields a spiked iron club. Its lower arms both wield curved sabres with spiked handguards. They break down enemy defences with Kasap before craving them up with the meddlesome Metal Slash and giving them a good licking with Lightning Slash and getting all fired up with Flame Slash.
