==Characteristics==
Girthy grand green [[Dragon family|dragons]] with massive claws used for mashing enemies and smashing straight into the ground in order to cause outright earthquakes. Their fiery breath hits a party of adventurers hard, getting increasingly hot as the battle goes on. They even pack strong wind magic, letting loose with the '''Kaswoosh''' spell when they feel threatened.

*Despite being named for their obese appearance, the Drakulards and its variants are not the most proportionally portly dragons. This distinction goes to the [[Jargon]] and their variants.
*Their appearance and coloring in their ''[[Dragon Quest Monsters 2]]'' sprite is different from other artworks of this monster. This is likely because it was based on an earlier, non-finalised design.
