{{quote|style=1|quote='''''I bet they were head over heels in love when they got married. And then she died before they had time to get sick of each other. It's the perfect love story.'''''|source=|console=|align=center|bgcolor=fa8072}}
'''Angelo''' (ククール, ''Kukūru'') is a playable character in {{DQ8}}. He is a complicated man who hides his somber past behind an ambivalent, suave mask of a gambler and playboy. Though seemingly indifferent to the plights of others and even coming off as condescending at times, Angelo is nevertheless a dependable companion and an asset to the party's efforts.

As a knight of the Templars, Angelo is a master of restorative and defensive magic, and has access to wind and instant death spells, as well. His weapons of choice consist of [[Sword Weapon Family|sword]]s (particularly rapiers), [[Bow Weapon Family|bow]]s, and [[Wand Weapon Family|staves]].

==Story==
After losing his parents at a young age, he was brought in by Francisco, the abbot of Maella Abbey, like many other orphans. He grew up to be one of the Templar Knights, responsible for the abbey's protection. He likes to gamble and drink, making him a disgrace in the other templars' eyes, but he has the favour of Abbot Francisco. His half-brother Marcello, head of the Templar Knights, considers Angelo to be the cause of his sorrows. Marcello orders him to join the party after the events at Maella Abbey.

==Appearance and Personality==
Angelo is an attractive young man with silver-white hair that frames his face and a long ponytail that reaches halfway down his back tied with a black ribbon. He has blue eyes and wears small gold hoop earrings on each ear. Although he is a member of the Templars, Angelo wears a unique red version of the uniform, which consists of a red long-sleeved tailcoat with white lining and brass buttons on the front and two long tails on the back worn over a black long-sleeved shirt, red trousers, and a red capelet with black lining that reaches down to his hips which he wears over his torso. He wears dark brown shoes covered by white spats with brass buttons on the outsides that reach up and cover his knees, as well dark brown leather gloves. He wears his [[Templar's Equipment#Templar's ring|templar's ring]] on his right hand. Angelo also wears a leather sword belt around his waist with a green scabbard on his right side where he holds his rapier. He is left-handed.

Angelo marches to the beat of his own drum, caring little of his religious and ceremonial roles at the abbey (although his swordsmanship and bow proficiency are impressive enough for him to become a Templar knight). He's more interested in hustling the rubes at nearby Simpleton and chasing ladies than in carrying out the duties of his station, and his party chat dialogue proves him to be very fussy at times, especially concerning his appearance. He is a playboy who constantly comments on the attractiveness of women he comes across on the journey. Angelo is something of a joker as well, and enjoys poking fun at people with serious attitudes at their own expense, such as his half-brother. Despite all this, when push comes to shove, he will go to extraordinary lengths to see things through; even outshining the rising star, Marcello, to save Abbot Francisco not long after meeting the party. The rest of the time, he wants to be carried around by his free spirit, as captured in one of his remarks prior to undertaking the Dragovian Trials:

"If there's one thing I hate in this life, it's a trial. What kind of masochistic lunatic would come all the way up here to endure a grueling, not to mention tedious, challenge?"

There are a few other characters worth remarking on. Marcello is Angelo's half brother, a character with a zealous hatred of the nobility. That, as the illegitimate son of one of his father's house servants, he was disowned by his aristocratic family imbues him with a desire to stick it to well-bred institutions--and their members--everywhere. He despises his half-brother, while he and Angelo are outwardly quite similar, the difference between the two is rather apparent.

*Angelo also boasts a 25% resistance to ice-type damage.

==Abilities==
Angelo learns a variety of spells and a decent amount of physical skills, though as a [[Priest]] he is naturally at his best when healing his companions. He can learn to use a sword but his proficiency is outclassed by the Hero, making it an inadvisable path for him. It is a good idea to level up Angelo's staff skill to increase his MP and spell repertoire. His Charisma skills are excellent for countering tension-happy foes as well as inflicting status ailments, and Pearly Gates is a fantastic crowd control ability during the end-game. Angelo's physical strength shines most when using a bow, however, as most bow skills cause debilitating affects that can shut down foes before they even get a chance to strike. Bows will allow Angelo to easily recharge his MP in battle without the use of items, which is a valuable asset as the party's main healer.

==Other Appearances==
==={{DQ9}}===
Angelo appears as one of the guests at [[Erinn]]'s Inn at [[Stornway]]. This can be achieved trough the [[DQVC]] using [[Nintendo]]'s Wi-Fi Channel. When you talk to him he gives you Templar's Togs and, if you visit him on your birthday, his hair as a helmet.

==Trivia==
*Angelo is the first character in the series to be clearly depicted as left-handed. He holds shields and bows in his right hand and uses his left hand to wield other weapons and pull back bowstrings.
*Angelo gets a color palette reference for one of the 8 costumes for the Hero in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Said palette is given to the base of the Dragon Quest [[Hero (Dragon Quest XI)|Eleven Hero]].

'''Yangus''' (ヤンガス, ''Yangasu'') is a main character in {{DQ8}} who accompanies [[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|The Hero]] on his quest. A former bandit, Yangus decided to change his ways after his life was saved by the Hero and he swore his undying loyalty to him. He refers to the Hero as "Guv" (short for "Governor") and considers him a true friend.

Yangus is a slow, but powerful brawler versed in physical combat who augments his abilities with thievery and other useful skills. He wields [[Hammer Weapon Family|clubs]], [[Axe Weapon Family|axes]], and scythes in battle and is no stranger to unarmed combat.

Yangus also appeared in ''[[Dragon Quest: Shōnen Yangus to Fushigi no Dungeon]]'', ''[[Itadaki Street Special]]'', ''[[Fortune Street]]'' and is one of thirteen playable characters in ''[[Dragon Quest Heroes: The World Tree's Woe and the Blight Below]]''. His English voice is provided by English comedian and actor, Ricky Grover, who speaks with a thick Cockney accent.

==Appearance==
Yangus is a short and stocky man with tanned skin and gruff facial features. He is much more physically powerful than he looks, being able to lift up a chair with a grown man sitting in it above his head with ease, as seen in the bar brawl at [[Simpleton]]. Yangus has a round head with a bulbous nose and thick brows, an X-shaped scar on his left cheek, and his eyes have small pupils. He is constantly seen with stubble on his face and he has very short dark brown hair on top of his head, which can only be seen in concept art as it is always covered by his spiky yellow skullcap. Another scar is located across his left bicep.

Yangus wears no shirt but he wears a open fur vest, revealing his hairy chest and stomach. He also wears baggy turquoise trousers with a red sash around his waist, short brown boots, and metal wristbands. Around his waist, he also wears a leather sword belt with a cutlass hanging from his front, which he does not use.

==History==
Originally a bandit from [[Pickham Region|Pickham]], Yangus tried to "go straight", as he himself put it, but because of his appearance people didn't give him much of a chance, which brought him back to a life of crime. However, one fateful day, he tried to make some money off of tolling a bridge; the same bridge, which the [[Hero]], King [[Trode]] and [[Princess Medea|Medea]] were about to cross. Trode refused to pay - the bridge being within his kingdom - causing Yangus to attack the group, but his attack failed and he ended up collapsing the bridge while the Hero, Trode and Medea made it to the other side, leaving Yangus hanging on for his life.

Trode insisted the group leave Yangus. But the Hero decided to save Yangus, who thanked the Hero and in turn pledged his loyalty to him. It is during this scene that Yangus gives the Hero the nickname of Guv. When asked by [[Jessica]] early in the story, Yangus explains that it was the hero who "helped him go straight".

When the group reaches the town of Pickham, Medea is stolen and sold to [[Red]], a woman who lives on the outskirts of the region. It's revealed that Yangus and Red have history together (strongly implied to be romantic). At the end of the game, after the final boss is defeated, Jessica informs the Hero that Yangus and Red have gone into business together.

*Yangus also possesses a 25% resistance to [[frizz]], [[sizz]], and fire breath damage.
*In the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version of ''VIII'', Yangus is given a significant [[List of character statistics#strength|strength]] boost. The extra points start at level 21, and result in a score of 425 at level 99.

==Abilities==
Yangus has the highest strength throughout the bulk of the adventure in the PS2 version, and through the entire journey in the 3DS port. But Yangus will also gain access to healing spells and the vital Share Magic if you dabble in his Humanity skillset, giving him some flexibility. This will help immensely in the beginning of the game, but as the journey progresses he will be outclassed by [[Angelo]]'s and the Hero's support and healing options. He also has access to some of the most protective armour in the game, which increases his survivability in combat. Yangus has the lowest MP growth of all the characters, limiting his skill and magic usage.

Each of Yangus' weapon paths has high damage modifiers and various bonus attributes: Scythes if you want to steal items or have access to instant death attacks, Axes for the most helpful skills against metal slimes and inflict bonus damage to various monster families, and Clubs if you want to farm gold easier as well as break a foe's concentration. Humanity will lead to Yangus' more comedic abilities, like Underpants Dance and Golden Oldies, as well as the aforementioned healing and support abilities. His Fisticuffs skillset is considered by many players to be the most useful variant as well.

==Trivia==
*Yangus is the only character in the original version of ''VIII'' to not hold a personal grudge against Dhoulmagus--he undertakes the dangerous journey with the party solely out of gratitude to the guv.
*Yangus is the first party member to have already joined the hero prior to the game's beginning. One could count the presence of [[Carver]] and [[Milly]] during the opening of ''{{DQ6}}'', but that sequence is effectively a playable cutscene and the two aforementioned characters are removed immediately afterwards.
