The '''Ra's Mirror''',  formerly localized as the ''Mirror of Ra'' or ''Lar's Mirror'', is a recurring item in the {{DQSeries}}. It is typically used to reveal a character's true form and advances the story.

|DQ2=A mirror in which the true form of things is reflected.<ref>[[Cell phone]] Version.</ref>

The mirror is hidden in a swamp east of [[Moonbrooke]], and its location is hinted by the ghost of the king of [[Moonbrooke]]. It can be found by searching the swamp tile where 4 bridges are visible on the screen. It is one of only 3 items to be found by searching on the world map ([[Yggdrasil leaf]], [[Sunken Treasure]]).

The mirror is used to reveal the true form of the [[Princess of Moonbrooke]]. At the beginning of the game, she is transformed into a dog by a curse from [[Hargon]]. Using the mirror in front of the dog in [[Hamlin]] breaks the curse on her and she then joins the {{Party 2}}.  The mirror itself cracks afterwards and is no longer in the inventory.

The mirror can found in the [[Manoza Cave]]. Using the mirror at [[Day-night cycle|night]] on the sleeping [[King of Manoza|King]] of [[Manoza]] reveals him to be a [[Boss Troll]]. By defeating him, the {{Hero 3}} and {{Party 3}} receives the [[Mod Rod]].

|DQ4=This legendary looking glass always reflects the truth.<ref name="auto">[[Nintendo DS]] and [[Cell phone]] Version.</ref>

The mirror is simply randomly dropped by [[Float-o-copier]]s and has no relevance to the plot as with the previous two games. Indeed, players can finish the game without ever obtaining it, let alone using it. In this game, it can be used to return [[Float-o-copier]]s to their true forms after they [[Morph]] into a {{Party 4}} member, though this is not required to defeat them (especially as the {{Zenithian sword}} can also undo [[Morph]] when used as an item in battle).

The mirror is found in [[Abovitall Tower]] to the south of the aboreas teleportal, which is itself south of [[Heaven's Above Abbey]]. The mirror is used to reveal the true form of the [[Faux dowager]]. Later, it can be used to force [[Admirer]]s to revert back to their normal forms.

The mirror is found in the [[Moonmirror Tower]] in the the [[Real World]]. It is used against [[Murdaw]] in the [[Upper World]], and to reveal the nature of the curse cast upon the mirror princess in the basement of [[Castle Swanstone]].

|DQ7=Mirror showing truth.<ref>[[Sony PlayStation]] Version.</ref>

The mirror can be found in the [[Cathedral of Blight]] near the end of the game. It is used in battle to change back creatures who use transform to turn into {{Party 7}} members.

The mirror can be found in Chapter 3 ([[Moonbrooke]]), It can use to reveal the true form of the monsters, in a part of the chapter you give the mirror to [[Annessa]], She doesn't give it to you until they get to the Isle of Awakening, The mirror can use in [[Furrowfield]] you can use to the dog and it transform into a Princess.
