'''Petrarch''' is a minor antagonist in {{DQM3}}, ruling over the Middle Echelon of the [[Circle of Caprice]] with an iron fist.
==Appearances==
==={{DQM3}}===
Petrarch is one of [[Aamon]]'s minions, tasked with keeping the [[stone golem]]s of the Lower and Middle Echelons enslaved to mine the [[penteractic crystal]]s. From his lair in the [[House of Shifting Sands]], Petrarch achieves his master's ambition by trapping the stone golems in an intricate curse: once one succumbs to exhaustion and breaks apart, it is instantly reassembled and sent back to work for perpetual labor.

{{Psaro C}} and [[Rose]] are asked by [[Pierre]], the only one of his kind to retain any sentience, to kill Petrarch and free the golems from their unending slavery. Once confronted and dealt with, Petrarch's curse fades and the stone golems collapse into rubble, finally free from their toil. Later on, when confronting Aamon in [[Aamon's Sanctum|his sanctum]] in the Upper Echelon of the Circle of Caprice, the wicked one reveals that the stone golems were in fact [[Elves and Faeries|elves]] he had cursed when he destroyed their kingdom of [[El Zetta]] long ago, delighting in the fact that the heroes had unwittingly driven Rose's people closer to extinction. 

==Trivia==
*Petrarch's curse recalls [[The Time Being]] trapping the people of [[El Ciclo]] in a perpetual time loop with the use of the [[Sands of Time]].
