A '''treasure chest''' is a recurring element in the {{DQSeries}} as well as most role-playing games.  It appears in various locations throughout the games and often contains an item or [[gold]] which the player receives upon opening the chest.  Beginning in {{DQ3}} some chests are traps which contain enemies such as a [[Cannibox]], [[Mimic]] and [[Pandora's box]].  To counter this, the spell [[Peep]], was created to determine whether a chest had treasure or an enemy due to it's glow.

Later installments added pots, cupboards, drawers, etc. with a similar function. Generally, treasure chests are used to distribute items throughout the locations in each game.  The [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] ports of {{DQ}} and {{DQ2}} had most chests respawning even if they had key items provided they weren't with the characters' possessions.  ''III'' and up had them remaining permanently empty.
