The '''Seavern''' is a recurring monster in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest IX}}. This ferocious sea serpent is a powerful variant of the [[Abyss diver]]. Its name is a combination of "sea" and "wyvern".

==Characteristics==
Seaverns are powerful [[Aquatic family|aquatic]] monsters that take inspiration from both real-life [[Wikipedia:Plesiosaur|plesiosaur]]s and the mythological [[Wikipedia:Leviathan|Leviathan]]. They are described as kings among sea serpents and are known for destroying any ship they come across. They have dark indigo bodies with blood red undersides, long horns, a tall crest on top of their heads, and a fin on their backs. Their crests and fins are gold-coloured, while the webs on their feet are dark blue. They are among the most powerful monsters of the sea, able to emit bloodcurdling roars from their maws that strike fear into the hearts of adventurers and then calling forth enormous tidal waves to finish them off. It is said that [[seasaur]]s will transform into seaverns after consuming plum stones.
