The '''Lickspittle''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest IV}}.
It is a small brown goblin-like creature.
==Characteristics==
Lickspittles have the appearance of small humanoid creatures with tan skin and a tougher brown hide covering most of their torsos and the tops of their heads. Their eyes are constantly seen shut and they have huge pointy ears and long tongues sticking out of their open mouths. The Lickspittles have wiry limbs and make fast scratching attacks with their sharp claws. Despite their weak appearance, they are capable of calling upon other {{MFamilies}}s to help them overwhelm novice adventurers.
