'''Mostroferrato''' is a town in {{Dragon Quest V}}. It is home to the Briscoletti family and the location where the {{Hero 5}} gets [[Heavenly Bride|married]] during the second generation of the game as well as an important battle in the third generation.

Mostroferrato is a walled-city located on the southern end of the [[Zephyrus]] continent. The wealthy [[Briscoletti]] family resides here, being [[Rodrigo Briscoletti]], his unnamed wife, and their daughters {{Nera}} and {{Debora}}. The town is also home to the Burns family, of whom [[Crispin Burns|Crispin]] has taken a fancy to Nera.

Later on in the third generation, Rodrigo asks the {{Hero 5}} to inspect a large jar in a small shrine north of the town called [[The Pothold]]. It is glowing blood red, meaning that the monster sealed away by Rodrigo's ancestor, Rudolfo, several centuries ago is about to escape. Rodrigo warns the {{Hero 5}} of the danger the monster poses to the world and tells him to stall it at the tower he built just outside of the town, [[La Guardia]], while he assembles a group of soldiers. The monster, [[Bjørn the Behemoose]], is hellbent on revenge and battles the {{Hero 5}}'s {{Party 5}} as a warm up before killing the [[Briscoletti]] family. Upon his death, Bjørn drops the [[Ultimate Key]] and is sucked back into the jar. Regrouping with Rodrigo at his mansion, the man is overjoyed that the threat was eliminated and astonished at how powerful the {{Hero 5}} has become.

The [[Honey buns]] are the present given to the newlyweds the morning after the honeymoon, and are the only [[Knick-knack]] of the town.

*2,000 [[gold]] coins (Available in a chest after the wedding)

*5,000 [[gold]] coins (Available from Mrs. Briscoletti in Generation 3 after defeating [[Bjørn the Behemoose]] if married to Nera or Debora)

The [[Briscoletti]] mansion is one of the places the {{Luminary}} can visit through the [[Echo Chamber]]. Here, the party discovers that all three brides have been turned into copies of Rodrigo while the {{Hero 5}} is out retrieving the wedding veil. Panicking, Rodrigo will plead for the Luminary to slay the monster responsible for the trickery before the groom arrives. The monster is lurking at {{Alltrades Abbey 6}}, and once killed the curse is ended. Afterwards, the {{Luminary}} can play out his own version of the marriage decision with the present cast.
