The '''Gadabout''' (遊び人, ''Asobinin'') is a recurring vocation in the {{DQSeries}}. Design wise, Gadabouts are split between dressing as clowns for men and bunny girls for women, a point of difference between this party-going profession and the more obscure [[Jester]].

The {{translation|'''Gadabout'''|遊び人|Asobinin|Playboy}} is a recurring vocation in the {{DQSeries}}. Design-wise, Gadabouts are split between dressing as clowns for men and bunny girls for women, a point of difference between this party-going profession and the more obscure [[Jester]].


==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
Gadabouts march to the beat of their own drum, often ignoring any commands from the player for their own buffoonery that can have positive or negative impacts on the party. The number of possible antics increases with their level or rank, depending on the game, with more extreme actions becoming available. Quite literally a ''joke'' character, the Gadabout has poor growth in nearly every attribute, save for their incredible luck in ''III'' and a small style boost in ''VI'' and ''VII''.

The female Gadabout's design was censored for the HD2D remake of ''Dragon Quest III'' by placing a thicker line of fabric across the top of her leotard to partially obscure her cleavage and by extending the bottom portion of the leotard over her tushie to mask her mesh pants.
The female Gadabout's design in ''Dragon Quest III'' and ''Dragon Quest of the Stars'' wears a blue bunny suit. while the male counterpart wears a pink and purple clown outfit. In Dragon Quest X, both wear the clown outfit.
