Cursed Verse is a recurring ability in the Dragon Quest series. Its effects have differed in each game that it has appeared.
Appearances[edit | edit source]
Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past[edit | edit source]
In the original PS1 version, CurseSong is a hybrid skill learned by reaching rank 5 as a Mage or Troubadour immediately after completing the other. It reduces the defence of one group of enemies for 0 MP, making it similar to Kasap. It is also learned by reaching rank 6 as a Walking corpse.
- In the 3DS version, hybrid skills no longer exist and Cursed Verse is learned normally by reaching rank 5 as a Luminary or rank 1 as a Druid, but as it is an advanced skill, it can only be used as either of those vocations or learned permanently as a Walking corpse.
Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King[edit | edit source]
Cursed Song appears as an enemy-only skill that can be used by Pan pipers and Wailin' weeds. It has a chance to curse the entire party, stunning them for a single turn. The Hero is immune to its effects as he cannot be cursed.
Dragon Quest X [edit | edit source]
Cursed Verse appears once again as an enemy-only skill that can be used by various monsters, including Pan pipers and Wailin' weeds. It attempts to curse any nearby characters.
Dragon Quest Tact[edit | edit source]
Known as the Song of Cursing in this game, it is known naturally by Wailin' weed at level 1 and costs 13 MP to use. It has a range of up to three squares away from it and can occasionally curse a single enemy for four turns. Upgrading the skill increases the rate of success.
