The Drakulard is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in Dragon Quest VII, they are bipedal dragons of noticeable girth.

Characteristics[edit | edit source]

Girthy grand green dragons with massive claws used for mashing enemies and smashing straight into the ground in order to cause outright earthquakes. Their fiery breath hits a party of adventurers hard, getting increasingly hot as the battle goes on. They even pack strong wind magic, letting loose with the Kaswoosh spell when they feel threatened.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • Despite being named for their obese appearance, the Drakulards and its variants are not the most proportionally portly dragons. This distinction goes to the Jargon and their variants.
  • Their appearance and coloring in their Dragon Quest Monsters 2 sprite is different from other artworks of this monster. This is likely because it was based on an earlier, non-finalised design.
