The '''Brownie''' is a monster in the series.
The '''brownie''' is a recurring monster in the ''[[Dragon Quest series|Dragon Quest]]'' series. Introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest V]]'', is a stronger version of the [[hammerhood]], a small, hammer-wielding monster.


==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
Brownies are yellow-skinned palette swaps of hammerhoods, bearing an orange-brown coloring and wielding a dark, grayish blue hammer.
Brownies are miniscule yellow-skinned [[Humanoid family|humanoid]] creatures that wield dark grey hammers much bigger than themselves. They have pint-sized eyes and cover themselves with a shaggy brown fur. Comparatively, brownies aren't too different from [[hammerhood]]s, the two monsters essentially having the same purpose as being mostly incompetent creatures that can occasionally land a critical hit. Brownies tend to have more HP and greater attack power since they have to fulfill this role against players that are no longer troubled by hammerhoods.

Brownies make their first appearance, likely to be encountered around the time the player obtains the wagon and can start recruiting certain monsters. The brownie is one of these possible monsters, though it is nothing spectacular beyond having extremely high HP and attack strength growth.

The player is liable to encounter brownies while traveling between Maella and Ascantha. They are capable of psyching up to 100 in a single turn, though they usually waste this on trying to perform a desperate attack that seems to always fail. A roaming brownie that can be recruited to the player's monster team can also be found north of Peregrin Quay.

Brownies appeared from the beginning of the game. In addition to being able to psyche themselves up to build their tension, they have gained the ability to perform a [[Spinning Beatdown]], which damages any characters in a circular area of effect around itself. Starting with Version 1.1 of the game, it gained a rarefied version in the form of the [[Spiked club]].

The Brownie is a monster in the series.

Characteristics[edit | edit source]

Brownies are miniscule yellow-skinned humanoid creatures that wield dark grey hammers much bigger than themselves. They have pint-sized eyes and cover themselves with a shaggy brown fur. Comparatively, brownies aren't too different from hammerhoods, the two monsters essentially having the same purpose as being mostly incompetent creatures that can occasionally land a critical hit. Brownies tend to have more HP and greater attack power since they have to fulfill this role against players that are no longer troubled by hammerhoods.

Dragon Quest X [edit | edit source]

Brownies appeared from the beginning of the game. In addition to being able to psyche themselves up to build their tension, they have gained the ability to perform a Spinning Beatdown, which damages any characters in a circular area of effect around itself. Starting with Version 1.1 of the game, it gained a rarefied version in the form of the Spiked club.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • Brownies are a part of English and Scottish folklore. They are household spirits, being diminutive little helpers who assist in house maintenance in exchange for small offerings of food. They do not like to be seen, and usually only perform their tasks in the quiet of night.
