Setting the narrative standard for all other ''Dragon Quest'' protagonists to follow, the Hero is silent, only communicating in answers of 'Yes' and 'No'. This was a conscious decision made by series creator [[Yuji Horii]] to help draw the player into the world of Alefgard on a more personal level, rather than viewing the events of the game as an observer.

''Kenshin Dragon Quest'' and some spinoff games depict an alternate design for the Hero with blue eyes and spiky blond hair. He wears a silver coronet with a blue around his forehead similar to his ancestor. Instead of armour, he wears a red tabard emblazoned with a yellow Mark of Erdrick on the front over simple leather armour and a long blue tunic, black trousers, and purple boots.

==={{Kenshin Dragon Quest}}===
The Hero appears as the main playable character in {{KDQ}}, a television game based on the original Dragon Quest title. Much like in the original game, the Hero is a descendant of Erdrick tasked with going on a quest to rescue [[Princess Gwaelin]] and freeing [[Alefgard]] from the clutches of the [[Dragonlord]]. However, unlike the original adventure, [[Rubiss]] appears at the beginning to bestow upon the Hero [[Erdrick's Sword]] in order to help him on his quest.
