The '''Monarchic mark''' is a recurring accessory in the {{DQSeries}}. It gives a boost to the wearer's {{Defence}} and spellcasting attributes.

==Characteristics==
The Monarchic mark is a golden badge in the shape of an [[Wikipedia:Escutcheon|escutcheon]] featuring a coat of arms quartered blue and white. On the upper left, there is a golden downward-pointing sword and on the upper right, there is a golden trident-shaped cross that has been featured on many religious designs throughout the series.

The Monarchic mark was added to the game in Version 1.2, but it was eventually renamed to the [[Sovereign seal]] as its effects differed strongly from its previous appearance.
