The Badboon is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, first appearing in Dragon Quest II. The large brown-furred primate and its cousins are among the earliest examples of the Beast family of monsters.
Characteristics[edit | edit source]
Badboons are based on mandrills, Old World monkeys that are native to western Africa in the real world. They are large, brown bulky primates with colourful faces and posteriors. Bulkier than real life mandrills, their stature resembles orangutans and gorillas. The primates made a reappearance in the series in IX after a 22 year absence.
