{{Monster Infobox |title=Jörmun |image=[[File:Jörmun artwork.png]] |caption= |kanji=ムンババ |romanji=Munbaba |old=None |firstappear={{DQ11}} }} '''Jörmun''' is a specific member of the [[Jowler]] family that has grow accustomed to life in the frozen north. ==Appearances== ==={{DQ11}}=== Ages before the events of the game, the ice witch [[Krystalinda]] was trapped in a magic book for her crimes and stripped of her powers, which were sealed away inside Jörmun. Sometime before the first act of the game, [[Jasper]] discovers the book contaning [[Krystalinda]] and bargains with her to set a trap for the {{Hero 11}} and his allies. After being freed from the book, [[Krystalinda]] uses what remains of her power to freeze the people of [[Sniflheim]]; seal [[Queen Frysabel]] in the book; and impersonate her to trick the {{Party 11}} into defeating Jörmun. The {{Party 11}} encounters [[Hendrik]] fighting Jörmun in the depths of the Hekswood. Assuming the {{Hero 11}} is an ally of [[Hendrik]], Jörmun attacks the {{Hero 11}}'s {{Party 11}} but is slain. Jörmun's death breaks the seal on [[Krystalinda]]'s magic before the {{Party 11}} confronts her at [[Sniflheim]]. During the third act of the game, Jörmun is revived by the resurrection of [[Calasmos|the Dark One]] and begins rampaging through the north under his influence. While rebuilding [[Cobblestone]], the {{Hero 11}} searches for Jörmun with the intention of making it the [[Cobblestone|town]]'s mascot. The {{Hero 11}} weakens Jörmun in battle and purifies it with a [[Zap]] spell, causing it to be reborn as Holy Jörmun. Refreshed, Holy Jörmun comes to reside in [[Cobblestone]] as a watchful guardian. {{DQ11Enemy |name=Jörmun |kanji= ムンババ |romanji= |bestiaryNumber=#175 |family={{Beast}} |description=A hulking great creature who haunts the [[Hekswood]] with his horrifying howls of 'Jööööööööör!', with which he freezes foes before battering them. |sprite=[[File:Jörmun XI sprite.png]] |hp=820 |mp=999 |attack=141 |defense=150 |agility=79 |exp=2,400 |gold=290 |spells=None |skills=Acts twice per turn.<br>Back kick.

The snake was an adversary of the god Thor, and the two would kill one another during the Ragnarok. *The {{MFamilies}}'s Japanese name, Munbaba, is a combination of the Babylonian monster ''Hunbaba'' and the species' recurring ''Mu'' syllable. ==Similar species== *[[Fouler jowler]] *[[Jowler]] *[[Prowler jowler]] ==Gallery== <center><gallery> File:Jormun XI polygon.jpg|{{XI}} polygon model. </gallery></center> [[Category:Norse mythology]] [[Category:Dragon Quest XI enemies]]
