'''Meena Mahabala''' is a playable character in {{Dragon Quest IV}}, and a major {{NPC}} in {{Dragon Quest X}}.
'''Meena''' is a playable character in {{Dragon Quest IV}} and one of the [[Chosen Ones]].


[[Maya Mahabala]] is her older sister, though characters frequently mistake Meena to be the older sibling due to her relative maturity and seriousness. She is a fortune teller and a priestess on a quest to avenge her father with her sister. She becomes the first of the {{Hero 4}}'s companions after reading their fortune and realizes it is her destiny to help them defeat the [[Psaro the Manslayer|Evil One]].

She joined her sister as one of the playable characters in {{DQH2}} and is one of the original leader characters in {{DQRivals}}.
She has made cameo appearances in several games in the series, including as a special guest in {{Dragon Quest IX}}, and as a fortune teller and quest giver in {{Dragon Quest X}}. Meena joined her sister as one of the playable characters in {{Dragon Quest Heroes II}}, is one of the original leader characters in {{DQRivals}}, and is a special Hero character in {{DQTact}}.


==Appearance and Personality==
==Appearance and Personality==
Meena is nearly the spitting image of {{Maya}}, her older sister. She dresses much more conservatively compared to her sister, though they wear identical headpieces. Meena carries a crystal ball with her everywhere, which she uses to tell fortunes. While she and her sister both have long purple hair, Meena does not have bangs/fringe.
Meena is nearly the spitting image of [[Maya]], her older sister. She dresses much more conservatively compared to her sister, though they wear identical silver headpieces, earrings, and chokers. Meena wears a saffron-coloured skirt that reaches down to her ankles covered by an orange [[Wikipedia:Sari|sari]]-like garment that leaves her right arm exposed, along with a pair of sandals. Around her waist, she wears a silver belt and a longer silver chain that goes over her skirt, both with dangling green jewels. Meena carries a crystal ball with her everywhere, which she uses to tell fortunes. While she and her sister both have long purple hair, Meena does not have bangs/fringe. In ''Dragon Quest Heroes II'', the sleeve on her garment is detached, leaving both of her shoulders exposed. She wears a silver armband with a blue jewel at the top of her sleeve and there are floral and leaf patterns embroidered on her clothing. She also wears a white chemise underneath her skirt.


Meena is an extremely reserved and quiet person, and very rational. This disposition leads her to often scold her sister for her poor judgement regarding their [[Gold|money]], and her general laid-back demeanor. But, despite these stern traits, she is still a very kind person at heart, looking out for her sister when the two set out to avenge their [[Mahabala|father]]'s murder, and charging only a minuscule amount of gold for her fortune-telling services. During her travels with the rest of the [[Chosen Ones]], Meena will occasionally have cryptic visions of the near future.

{{DQ4 Chapter 4}} begins with {{Maya}} and Meena performing at the town, [[Laissez Fayre]], which is populated almost entirely by entertainers and tourists. They use their job as a cover and the town as a base to investigate the murder of their father [[Mahabala] ], a prominent alchemist. Though they suspect his apprentice, [[Balzack]], killed him in order to steal the [[Secret of Evolution]], they have nothing to back up their claims, and keep them to themselves for the time being.

After following the trail through several towns across the entire country, they finally confronted the murderer at his [[Palais de Léon|castle]]. Unfortunately, despite their best efforts, his true [[Marquis de Léon|King]] arrives to soundly defeat them in battle and throws them into the dungeon. Luckily, the only other occupant points them to a secret exit, and after they escape, they flee directly to [[Endor]].

In {{DQ4 Chapter 5}}, Meena is attempting to continue her fortune-telling business, but {{Maya}} blows all the [[gold]] they'd earned on their journey at the [[Casino]], leaving them fairly stranded in the city. Luckily, the {{Hero 4}} has been told to seek out his destined allies, and locates {{Maya}} and Meena in short order. When Meena reads his fortune, she realizes that he is the prophesied {{Hero 4}} and immediately joins the {{Party 4}}.

The two are briefly separated in [[Con Cave]] and are approached by demonic doppelgangers of The {{Hero 4}} (while The {{Hero 4}} also battled doppelgangers of the sisters). When coming across the real {{Hero 4}}, Meena is more trusting while {{Maya}} quizzed him/her. Afterwards, they regroup and find the [[Symbol of faith]].

A while later in {{DQ4 Chapter 5}}, the {{Party 4}} confronts [[Balzack]], at Castle [[Zamoksva]]. He has used an imperfect version of the Secret of Evolution to become [[Balzack|Baalzack]], but the {{Party 4}} is still able to kill him, avenging the death of the sisters' [[Mahabala|father]] at long last.

Meena's abilities in battle are styled after the [[Priest]] vocation in {{Dragon Quest III}}, possessing approximately half of the pastor's spells. She has sole access to the [[Woosh]] series of spells which give her more reliable offensive utility than Kiryl's [[Whack]] spells, but she is only able to heal one character at a time whereas the former will learn [[Multiheal]]. Relying on Meena to revive deceased allies is a gamble as she only learns [[Zing]], but in dire circumstances she is an asset with the party-restoring [[Kerplunk]]--this spell alone can completely turn the tide of battle and snatch victory from the jaws of defeat at the cost of her own life. Meena is also the only chosen one to learn the vital [[Insulatle]] spell, making her a crucial ally against the [[Estark|Lord of the Underworld]] and other enemies that rely on [[Breath attack|breath attacks]].

As a spell caster, Meena possesses low {{Resilience}} and {{HP}}, but high {{Wisdom}}, {{Luck}}, and {{MP}}. She also enjoys a higher-than-average {{Strength}} when compared to the other magical characters until her sister's strength rises suddenlt at higher levels. Meena has access to some powerful equipment such as the [[Falcon knife earrings]] and [[Liquid metal sword]], but she will be quickly surpassed in physical combat by Ragnar and Alena unless [[Seed of Strength|seeds]] are applied to boost her might.

*There are a pair of unnamed sisters in {{Dragon Quest VII}} that are a reference to Meena and her sister Maya during the party's first visit to [[Greenthumb Gardens]]. The younger sister is said to spend all of her time with her crystal ball and reading tarot cards, while the older one spends all of their hard-earned money at casinos and is on the lookout for a handsome suitor. Ironically, the younger one is dressed like a dancer, while the older sister is dressed more modestly.
