The Meowgician is a monster in the series.

Characteristics

Meowgicians are anthropomorphic cat mages with light grey fur. They wear orange robes, bronze bells around their necks, and carry gnarled wooden staves that they use to cast simple fire spells. However, the felines are just as likely to waste their turn in battle washing their faces instead of casting magic. In various monster descriptions, the meowgician is said to hide a second tail under its robe and lived for a century prior to learning magic, which are references to the nekomata yokai of Japanese mythology, which is a cat whose tail split into two and took on magical properties after living for 100 years.

Dragon Quest X

Meowgician appeared from the beginning of the game. Once again, their repertoire is limited to casting Frizz in battle. They also have a tendency to waste their turn in battle washing their faces and will flee when threatened. Starting in Version 2.0 of the game, Monster Masters are able to tame meowgicians as a monster companion. In Version 5.0 of the game, Vicious meowgicians can be faced in the Netherworld, where they cast Kafrizz.
