{{Translation|'''Morrie Mozzarella'''|モリー, Morī}} is a mostly comical character, introduced in {{DQ8}}. He also acts as the "host" for the ''[[Dragon Quest: Monster Battle (series)|Monster Battle]]'' sub-series.

Although Morrie was introduced as an NPC in the original [[Sony PlayStation#PlayStation 2|PS2]] release of the ''DQ VIII'', he has been upgraded to a playable character for the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version. In combat, he is capable of wielding clubs, boomerangs, and claws, as well as utilizing the abilities of monsters from his infamous pit and his own passion-driven powers.

==Appearance and Personality==
Morrie's outfit consists of an almost jester-like tunic with alternating sections of green and red that shows off his hairy chest, as well as very tight leggings. He wears a black belt, gloves, shoes, and a white scarf around his neck which always seems to blow in the wind, even while indoors.
Morrie speaks with an Italian accent and peppers his dialogue with Italian terms, such as calling the Hero "ragazzo" or [[Jessica Albert|Jessica]] "bimba". His name for [[Yangus]] is "signore" and his name for [[Angelo]] is "casanova". In the [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS Version]], he refers to [[Trode]] as Don Toad, [[Princess Medea|Medea]] as Bellissima Principessa, and [[Red]] as Rosa Rossa. In the English version, he also has a tendency to use suggestive double entendres. Morrie is prone to fits of passion and excitement when he is impressed, which are often accompanied by flames which spontaneously combust in the background when he is speaking. The 3DS version revealed that Morrie is capable of controlling these flames and can use them offensively in battle. At the end of battles, he poses dramatically with his weapon in midair.

In ''[[Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime]],'' '''Morrie Morrie''' (as he is called here) is a little, orange slime (in some way similar to a [[She-slime|she-slime]], although Morrie Morrie is clearly male, with his furry beard and eyebrows still on him) and now uses his white scarf as a white bandau.

==Story==
==={{DQ8}} Sony PlayStation 2 Version===
[[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|The Hero]] and company first encounter Morrie on the rooftop of his [[Monster Arena]]. Sensing something special in [[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|The Hero]], Morrie sends him to capture three "infamous monsters" to deem the Hero worthy to enter his arena. Once the party has succeeded in making the captures, Morrie allows The Hero to compete in his Monstrous Pit on one condition: he must compete with '''GUSTO!'''

After many victories, Morrie eventually allows The Hero to challenge him and despite his own loss is impressed that someone was able to outperform him. As a prize, Morrie has a statue of The Hero built and placed on top of the building to commemorate his status as Champion.

==={{DQ8}} Nintendo 3DS Version===
Following on from Morrie's defeat, he joins the Hero to help him with his dream in return for fulling his dream which was finding someone superior to him as a monster trainer.

His role in the story is minimal due to him being an optional party member, though during the party's arrest he helps Red, along with [[Trode]] and [[Princess Medea|Medea]] in finding them on [[Purgatory Island]].

During the ending, he shows up at [[Trodain]] to mention to the Hero that he was given a formal invite to the wedding at [[Savella Cathedral]] by King [[Clavius]]. During the first ending (prior to having access to the [[Dragovian Path]]), Morrie leaps out of his seat to buy the Hero time in avoiding capture by the guards.

===Recruitment===
Morrie will join upon the completion of Rank S at the Monster Arena, which can be done after the party takes care of matters at [[Arcadia]]. Prior to that, Morrie mentions that he would need time to prepare for their competition.

His appearance in the ending is only possible if he joins, as otherwise he merely makes an appearance in the audience of the wedding.

==Morrie's Memo==
To determine whether The Hero and his party are worthy to compete in the Monster Arena, Morrie hands out three notes referred to as '''Morrie's Memo'''. Each one gives the location of a specific monster and their description.

*'''Morrie's Memo #1''': The [[Slime]] "Slimy Smiley" located outside [[Trodain]] Castle.
*'''Morrie's Memo #2''': The [[Restless armour]] "Hollow Knight" located on the path to the [[Ruined Abbey]].
*'''Morrie's Memo #3''': The [[Khalamari kid]] "Squiggly Sqigger" located on the beach southeast of [[Red's House]].

Upon fulfilling the request, Morrie gives the party the Arena Key and takes his memos' back.

==Other Appearances==
==={{DQ9}}===
Morrie appears as one of the special guests at the [[Quester's Rest]] in [[Stornway]]. This was obtainable through the DQVC using Nintendo's Wi-Fi Channel when it was still available. When spoken to, Morrie will give the player different pieces of his outfit if certain fulfillment are required, such as talking to him on the hero's birthday or being a [[Gladiator]].

In ''[[Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime|Rocket Slime]]'', Morrie appears as a guest character. Though in the world where the events take place the human race is not present at all, Morrie has become a slime himself.

==Trivia==
*His appearance is loosely based on [[Akira Toriyama|Toriyama's]] own Mr. Satan/Hercule character from the famous ''Dragon Ball'' series.
*Morrie's outfit is based on the Italian flag.
*In his clash with the Hero inside the Monster Arena it is revealed that his last name is Mozzarella through the announcer's introductions in the Rank S finals.
*Prior to the release of the 3DS version in Japan, ''Dragon Quest VIII's'' producer Noriyoshi Fujimoto stated that if Morrie were classified with a vocation, he would be an evolved mix of a [[Minstrel]] and [[Martial Artist]].
*Morrie has the lowest [[List of character statistics#Resilience|resilience]] of all characters in ''VIII''. This is due to both his age and beanpole build. He also has the highest [[List of character statistics#Agility|agility]] of the male party members.
*Incidentally, while he has no role in any of the cutscenes if he's present in [[Pirate's Cove]], putting Morrie in the party in place of [[Yangus]] will result in several scenes playing out differently.
