{{Monster Infobox |title=Caped caperer |image=[[Image:DQVIII Caped caperer.png|225px|center]] |caption=Art by [[Akira Toriyama]] |kanji=グリゴンダンス |romanji={{tt|Gurigondansu|Grigon dance}} |firstappear={{Dragon Quest VIII}} }} The '''Caped caperer''' is a recurring monster in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest VIII}}. It is a demon that performs dance rituals in the depths of hell. ==Characteristics== Caped caperers are wiry [[Demon family|demon]]s with blue skin with sunken red eyes, large pointed ears, and a tiny pair of horns on their head. They wear dark blue trousers and white shoes, along with a yellow capelet tied around their necks. The devils have a long tail poking out of the back of their pants that they can drop after battle. The caperers hop back and forth on each foot in battle and have mastered a variety of dances intended to encumber adventurers, as well as performing the lively '''Hustle Dance''' to restore the HP of their fellow monsters. ==Appearances== ==={{DQ8}}=== {{DQ8Enemy |name=Caped caperer |kanji=グリゴンダンス |romanji=Gurigondansu |sprite=[[Image:DQVIII PS2 Caped caperer.png]] |hp=216 |mp=0 |exp=199 |gold=31 |attack=148 |defense=159 |agility=134 |bestiaryNumber=#202 |family=[[Demon family|Demon]] |description=These dancers of the netherworld once played a central role in the rituals performed in honor of the [[Rhapthorne|Lord of Darkness]].
