The '''high roller''' is a recurring monster in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest VIII}}. It is a vicious beast that wears a ferocious mask over its eyes. Its name is a play on the gambling term of the [[Wiktionary:High roller|same name]]. | |||
==Characteristics== | |||
High rollers are enormous purple-skinned [[Beast family|beast]]s with an appearance similar to a great ape with small blue wings on its back, spikes on top of its head, and a small mask that covers its numerous eyes. Like their less powerful cousins, the high rollers will roll their eyes to two different effects. If they roll a one, the high roller will become serious and their complexion changes to a deep scarlet red. They become much more dangerous, having the ability to land desperate attacks and devastate adventurers with their '''Kaboom''' spell. If they roll a six, the beasts will summon a bomboulder to aid them in battle. They are also able to heal themselves and only themselves with their magic. | |||
