Rimeblood is a boss monster found in Dragon Quest Treasures. It is the strongest of the three ancient ones, found in the fourth floor of the Snarl where it guards the final dragonstone.
Characteristics[edit | edit source]
Rimeblood is a peculiar monster whose body is feline in shape, but whose head is that of a chameleon mixed with a frilled lizard. Befitting it's name, it is covered in snow white scales and ice crystal osteoderms. A teal jewel is fixed in the frill lining it's jaw, and this is the beast's most vulnerable part.
The dragon is the most powerful of Draconia's guardian beasts and fights in an arena that is without obstructions unlike the other two. Instead, Rimeblood will change its colour like a chameleon and become all but invisible to the player. It cannot be damaged in this state until it's jewel flashes red: shooting it with the catapult during this time will stun it for several seconds.
