==Story==
==Appearances==
[[Maya]] and [[Meena]] encounter him in Chapter 4 at [[Gupta Gupha]]. He too is mourning the death of Maya and Meena's father, his old teacher, and offers himself up to help their cause, joining the party. He has a much more stronger physical attack than either of them. Oojam first helps the twins locate their father's alchemy laboratory, but doesn't stay long; after a brief confrontation with [[Keeleon]], all hope looks lost, and he offers his life to buy the girls time to escape.
==={{DQ4}}===
Oojam is first encountered by {{Maya}} and [[Meena Mahabala]] in {{DQ4 Chapter 4}} at [[Gupta Gupha]]. He too is mourning the death of Maya and Meena's father, his old teacher, and offers himself up to help their cause, joining the party. He has a much stronger physical attack than either of the two sisters. Oojam is an invaluable asset for the girls, having the ability to pick locked doors. This handy skill allows them to penetrate the walls of [[Palais de Léon]] where their enemy awaits. Unfortunately, he is forced to separate from the girls in the aftermath of a brutal defeat by the hands of [[Marquis de Léon]]. While the three are able to escape their cell with some unexpected help, they are caught by the nearby guards. Oojam single-handedly takes on the guards, buying the girls time to escape. If they revisit the site, Oojam lays on the ground defeated, telling the two to flee and save themselves before seemingly passing away.


Though he was merely injured and rose to fight off some guards as another girl escaped [[Palais de Léon]]. The two flee to [[Vrenor]]'s [[Inn]] to rest and recover.  
In {{DQ4 Chapter 5}}, Oojam is revealed to be alive. While he was injured when fighting off the guards and left for dead, another girl happened to escape Palais de Léon not long afterwards. The two flee to [[Vrenor]]'s [[Inn]] to rest and recover, where Oojam stays for the rest of the game.  


In the NES version, he uses his strength to break open locked doors, but in the North American DS version, he picks the lock instead.

==Trivia==
*The character was given a Hindu name in the [[Plus Alpha]] localization of ''IV'' to underline his connection to the Mahabala sisters. ''Oojam'' is a name originating in the Telugu language of southeastern India that means "Enthusiasm", and expresses his desire to aid the sisters in avenging his teacher.
*In the {{NES}} version, Oojam uses his strength to break open locked doors, but in the [[Nintendo DS]] version he picks the lock instead. Considering his strength stat is only 40 in most versions of the game, this change was likely implemented to avoid inconsistencies with the much stronger party members.
