The '''Great keeper''' is a monster in the series.


'''Great keepers''' are bonus dungeon monsters that have appeared in several {{DQSeries}} remakes, before becoming regular enemies with the eleventh game. They are living statues made out of solid gold, but unlike the [[Gold golem (Recurring) |Gold golem]]s they are not hindered by the frailty of the metal.
==Characteristics==
Great keepers are living [[Material family|statues]] made out of solid gold, having the appearance of muscular, bearded men wearing togas, their left fist permanently raised into the air. Their eyes glow with blue light. The golden giants are known for delivering devastating attacks with their enormous fists or stamping the ground violently. True to their Japanese name, great keepers are the heavenly gatekeepers of [[Zenithia]], although in some games, they will even serve as guardians for the lairs of demon lords, as well.
