The '''Pirates' Den''' is a location in the [[Overworld (Dragon Quest III)|Overworld]] of {{Dragon Quest III}}.

It is home to a band of pirates who are only present at night, spending the day pillaging. The house sits on the South American continent near what would be Argentina in the real world.  The Den is the location of the [[Red Orb]].

==Appearances==
==={{DQ3}}===
The pirate's den is a simple log house decorated with armaments, with two imposing skulls fixed at the front door as warning to trespassers. There is a garden pond in the center of the building, along with barracks for the mariners to rest in. The pirates warmly receive the {{Hero 3}} and company, hearing of their mission to slay the archfiend [[Baramos]] during their raids. The pirates also claim that they only steal from those who are scoundrels and deserve it.

The captain of the pirates is a woman who asks the {{Hero 3}} if they think it's funny that a slip of a girl such as herself is the ruthless boss of a bunch of sea dogs. If the {{Hero 3}} answers 'Yes', she laughs and remarks that the brassy attitude is akin to her own. She also mentions the location of [[Lozamii]] , before asking if the {{Hero 3}} is really up to saving the whole world. If the {{Hero 3}} answers 'Yes', the captain states that they will fail, but if they actually manage to pull it off then she'll congratulate them herself when they return.

The [[red orb]] is hidden in a secret basement outside the house, which is underneath a boulder as seen in [[Reeve]]. A pirate in the house mentions a [[red orb]] but can't remember where he saw it, meaning first-time players may need to use the [[Echo Flute]] to learn of the orb's location at the Den.

====Remake changes====
If speaking to The Captain with the female Hero after defeating [[Baramos]], she will invite you to drink with her and share her backstory. After the first round of drinks, if you say you'd like to live a life like hers, the {{Hero 3}}'s personality will change to [[Amazon]]. If you say that you'll rely on your good looks instead, the hero's personality will change to [[Vamp]]. The hero's personality will remain unchanged if you answer No to the Captain's questions.

====Treasures====
*[[Leg warmers]]
*[[Mini medal]] (2)
*[[Seed of strength]] (2)
*[[Skull ring]]
*[[T'n'T ticket]] ({{SFC}} and {{GBC}})

====Nearby {{MFamilies}}s====
*[[Belisha beakon]]
*[[Heedoo voodoo]]
*[[Infernal armour]]
*[[Seaslime]]
*[[Smackanape]] (Called by [[Heedoo voodoo]])
*[[Walking corpse]]

==={{DQ3HD}}===
The den remains mostly unchanged in the transition to HD, though it is now directly on the coast and the hidden basement entrance is now beneath a state of a pirate captain that glows red at night to tip off players.

With the [[Amazon]] personality being retired, the drinking session with the Captain will turn the player into a [[Bodybuilder]] if agreeing to live a life like her. Additionally she will also drink with the male Hero.

==Trivia==
*If the [[Mod Rod]] is used to transform into a monster, the pirates will balk at how stupid the beast is to wander into a den of buccaneers itching for a scrap.
