The '''silhouette'''  is a recurring monster in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest III}}.

It was originally colored blue-green in its debut but changed to red with its reappearance in the sixth game, and remained that way until {{XI}} where it returned to being blue-green.

==Characteristics==
The malefic moans of the murdered given form, which float into battle like a fiery shadow, doing the deadly [[Death Dance]] that has a chance to slay all enemies where they stand. A force to be feared, these {{MFamilies}}s are astoundingly resistant to all manner of elements and ailments in each appearance. In later games in the series, the spectres gained the ability to breathe out ice-cold breath from their maws and even pure darkness as part of their offensive repertoire.
