The Sootbonce, also known as the Gloom slugger, is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, first appearing in Dragon Quest V. It is an unusual, alien-like monster that forms a duo with the Smogbonnet.
Characteristics[edit | edit source]
Sootbonces are squat bipedal demons whose most notable feature is the pair of stalk-like protrusions growing from their shoulders that have an extra eye each. They have round, darker grey heads that give the monster their name, a tiny pair of blue eyes, and a fang-filled mouth that they use in vicious biting attacks. The sootbonce almost always appears alongside the smogbonnet, which has a similar coloration to them. They have the ability to call for backup from more of their kind or nearby smogbonnets to assist them in battle.
