'''Black pepper''' is a quest-related item in {{DQ3}}.  It is required before the {{Hero 3}} can obtain a [[ship]] from the king of [[Portoga]].  

==Appearances==
==={{DQ3HD}}===
Black Pepper is first heard of when the {{Hero 3}} and [[Party (Dragon Quest III)|Party]] visits the city of [[Portoga]]. The [[Portogus Rex]] of that land is the proud owner of a fleet of ships, but will only allow the Hero to use one of his ships if the Hero can bring him some of the rare and highly desired spice from the east. Giving the {{Hero 3}} a [[Royal Missive]] to gain passage from [[Nordy the Dwarf|his friend]] through the [[Nordy's Grotto]] mountains, the King of Portoga tasks the Hero with this quest, though he doubts it shall be completed. Soon, the Hero arrives in the town of [[Baharata]], where the spice is grown and sold.  However, the only shop that sells the pepper is closed due to the kidnapping of the shopkeeper's daughter, [[Tanaya]]. When speaking with the distressed shopkeeper and his daughter's boyfriend, [[Gopal Gupta]], her boyfriend rashly rushes off to [[Kidnapper's Cave]] and is also captured. The hero must defeat [[Robbin' 'Ood]] and his [[Robbin' huddle (Dragon Quest III)|henchmen]] once more to save the young lovers and earn a chance to buy the spice. However, as a kind gesture, Gopal gives the hero the Black Pepper for free once he inherits the shop. 

*In the {{GBC}} and {{SFC}} remakes, more Black Pepper can be received upon further visits to Baharata, despite the lack of purpose for the spice.
