==Trivia==
*In a 2024 interview in the [[V-jump]] guide book for the HD remake of ''Dragon Quest III'', [[Yuji Horii]] revealed that he created Gadabouts on a whim and that the vocation originally had nothing to do with [[Sage]]s; they were purely meant to give the game more character. Push back from the [[Chunsoft]] staff on the vocation's dubious utility led to him recanting and it was decided to make the goof-offs a shortcut to unlocking to advanced vocation for players who couldn't find the [[words of wisdom]].
