The '''man o' war''' is a recurring monster in the {{DQSeries}}. Introduced in {{Dragon Quest II}}, it is a seagoing monster capable of inducing paralysis.

==Characteristics==

In terms of appearance, man o' wars are pale pallid versions of [[~~Healslime~~]]s. Their floats are often a dull, grayish color while their tentacles sport a dark blue-green shade. In some games, the float is colored sky blue and their tentacles are a darker shade of blue.

Despite this similarity, ~~Man~~ o' wars have no healing abilities. They are [[Aquatic family|aquatic]] monsters well-versed in the use of paralysis-inducing abilities, with a swarm of ~~Man~~ o' wars being as potentially dangerous as instant-death inducing monsters. They are often capable of calling for backup from more of their kind. In games where Paralysis is not a status ailment such as ''II'' and ''Heroes'', they are capable of putting enemies to sleep instead. Depending on the game, they may be considered part of the [[~~Slime~~ family]].

==Trivia==

*The ~~Man~~ o' war's English name is based on the [[Wikipedia:Portuguese man o' war|Portuguese man o' war]], a hydrozoan found in the Atlantic and Indian ocean known for its venomous nematocysts which can deliver a sting powerful enough to kill fish and severe pain and occasionally death to humans. Despite its superficial appearance to a jellyfish, the two are not related.

Despite its superficial appearance to a jellyfish, the two are not related.

* A monster extremely similar to the man o' war appears in {{DQ7|short}}, the [[sting slime]]. The difference between the two is that the sting slime dwells on land, while the man o' war prefers to live in seas and oceans.
