The '''Orochi''' is a many headed {{MFamilies}} found in {{DQ3}} and a servant of [[Baramos]]. In contrast to her bestial appearance, she is a cruely cunning snake capable of manipulating people to further her own ends.

==Characteristics==
The design of Orochi is the one of an enormous dragon that is covered in green scales and has five heads instead of one. At the top of each head there are grey, purplish colored crests that stem from the front of the head to the base of the neck. In each limb there are four fingers that end up in white, sharp claws. It has red eyes with no pupils.

==Appearences==
==={{DQ3}}===
The Orochi masquerades as [[Pimiko]]–the queen of [[Jipang]], and uses the disguise to create a despicable ruse: Pimiko has reached a compromise with "Orochi", agreeing that if the {{MFamilies}} is given sacrifices of young girls at regular intervals then she will not attack the village directly.

When the {{Hero 3}} and {{Party 3}} defeated the Orochi in her [[Orochi's Lair|lair]], she dropped the [[Orochi sword]] from her tail and retreats through a portal to [[Pimiko]]'s Palace in [[Jipang]]. Stepping through the portal, the player sees [[Pimiko]] severely wounded and being tended to by a panicking handmaiden. When it became clear that the Orochi was pretending to be [[Pimiko]], the monster telepathically spoke to the {{Hero 3}} and struck a bargain: keep quiet about her secret and allow her to continue gorging herself on maidens, and she will spare the lives of the {{Party 3}}.

Orochi is hemorrhaging considerably after the first battle and is in no position to threaten anyone: {{Hero 3}} and company battle the beast once more, slaying her and freeing the people of [[Jipang]].

Orochi is on her last legs in the second battle, only able to occasionally spew the intense flames that made her first battle difficult. Players need only apply [[Kabuff]] liberally and [[Sap]] her once to manhandle the {{MFamilies}} with impunity.

Orochi appears as the boss of the 100 Pals Room Gate, its speech and surroundings an allusion to its appearance in {{Dragon Quest III}}. Once [[Terry]] defeats it in battle, it will go on a rampage due to its being upset about losing. Its massive build and weight causes the bit of land [[Terry]] is standing on to start to give way, putting him in danger. Just in time, a mysterious cloaked swordsman (who is actually [[Terry]]'s future self) arrives on the scene and finishes Orochi off, saving [[Terry]]'s life. This entire scene will only occur if [[Terry]] defeats Orochi before clearing the Gate of Reflection.

Orochi returns as a boss battle in the [[Jipang]] scenario.

==={{DQRivals}}===
{{Stub}}

==={{DQWalk}}===
Orochi appeared in Chapter 2 of the {{Dragon Quest III}} event held from March to May 2020, eventually appearing as a powerful {{MFamilies}} in various places.

==={{DQTact}}===
Orochi appears as an A-rank monster of the [[Dragon family]] and can be unlocked by collecting Orochi Marks from the Cave of Trials. She reprises her role in the original ''Dragon Quest III'' event, mistaking [[Mindini]] for a sacrifice and is fought by [[Majellan]] and the party. After her defeat, she spits Mindini farther into [[Manoza]]. She is also fought in [[Armful]]'s Battle Road in Chapters 6 and 7, the former of which she attacks Armful for using a female [[Walking corpse]] as a human maiden and the latter for workout training after getting chubby from eating maidens. She helps get Armful back into [[Baramos]] (and indirectly) [[Zoma]]'s army after she is defeated the first time.

Orochi can participate in [[Estelle]]'s Battle Road as a party member and she also stars in her own Blossom Battle Road, as well.

==Trivia==
*Orochi's sex is confirmed in {{Dragon Quest III}} as female by {{NPC}} dialogue.
*If the {{Hero 3}} does not chase Orochi through the portal upon her initial defeat (instead leaving the cave), she will be standing in the same spot later, forcing the player to battle her again. She does not drop the Orochi sword more than once, though.
*The dreadful beast and the events surrounding [[Jipang]] and the arrival of the {{Hero 3}} are based on the Japanese legend of the [[wikipedia:Yamata no Orochi|Yamata no Orochi]]. Yamato no Orochi is an eight-headed and eight-tailed dragon who demands human sacrifices, and who is slain by the thunder god [[Wikipedia:Susanoo-no-Mikoto|Susanō no Mikoto]]. The Orochi sword is likewise a reference to the [[wikipedia:Kusanagi|Kusanagi]], a sword found within the body of Orochi.

Orochi appears as the boss of the 100 Pals Room Gate, its speech and surroundings an allusion to its appearance in {{Dragon Quest III}}. Once [[Terry]] defeats it in battle, it will go on a rampage due to its being upset about losing. Its massive build and weight causes the bit of land [[Terry]] is standing on to start to give way, putting him in danger. Just in time, a mysterious cloaked swordsman (who is actually [[Terry]]'s future self) arrives on the scene and finishes Orochi off, saving [[Terry]]'s life. This entire scene will only occur if [[Terry]] defeats Orochi before clearing the Gate of Reflection.

Orochi returns as a boss battle in the [[Jipang]] scenario.

==={{DQRivals}}===
{{Stub}}

==={{DQWalk}}===
Orochi appeared in Chapter 2 of the {{Dragon Quest III}} event held from March to May 2020, eventually appearing as a powerful {{MFamilies}} in various places.

==={{DQTact}}===
Orochi appears as an A-rank monster of the [[Dragon family]] and can be unlocked by collecting Orochi Marks from the Cave of Trials. She reprises her role in the original ''Dragon Quest III'' event, mistaking [[Mindini]] for a sacrifice and is fought by [[Majellan]] and the party. After her defeat, she spits Mindini farther into [[Manoza]]. She is also fought in [[Armful]]'s Battle Road in Chapters 6 and 7, the former of which she attacks Armful for using a female [[Walking corpse]] as a human maiden and the latter for workout training after getting chubby from eating maidens. She helps get Armful back into [[Baramos]] (and indirectly) [[Zoma]]'s army after she is defeated the first time.

Orochi can participate in [[Estelle]]'s Battle Road as a party member and she also stars in her own Blossom Battle Road, as well.

==Trivia==
*Orochi's sex is confirmed in {{Dragon Quest III}} as female by {{NPC}} dialogue.
*If the {{Hero 3}} does not chase Orochi through the portal upon her initial defeat (instead leaving the cave), she will be standing in the same spot later, forcing the player to battle her again. She does not drop the Orochi sword more than once, though.
*The dreadful beast and the events surrounding [[Jipang]] and the arrival of the {{Hero 3}} are based on the Japanese legend of the [[wikipedia:Yamata no Orochi|Yamata no Orochi]]. Yamato no Orochi is an eight-headed and eight-tailed dragon who demands human sacrifices, and who is slain by the thunder god [[Wikipedia:Susanoo-no-Mikoto|Susanō no Mikoto]]. The Orochi sword is likewise a reference to the [[wikipedia:Kusanagi|Kusanagi]], a sword found within the body of Orochi.
