==~~Dragon Quest VIII~~==

==Story==

Trode is a good monarch, consumed with the well-being of his kingdom and especially of [[Princess Medea|his daughter]], but shows little concern for anything else. After being cursed with a hideous, toad-like from, Trode travels via a wagon hitched to his now turned horse daughter (a fact that he often is upset by). After the defeat of Dhoulmagus, Trode is almost heartbroken by the fact that his and Medea's curse still lingers. However, once the demon [[Rhapthorne]] is finally defeated, the two are restored to normal. In the epilogue, King Trode decides to disrupt the arranged marriage of his daughter to [[Prince Charmles]] of [[Argonia]], and is hinted to be quite pleased with the romantic nature between Medea and the ~~hero~~. In the special ending, he ~~becomes~~ the Hero's father-in-law after the revelation of the ~~hero~~ being revealed to be of noble birth.

In the special ending, he can become the Hero's father-in-law after the revelation of the Hero being revealed to be of noble birth.

He and Yangus have a recurring routine in which Trode will often appear out of nowhere during a scene, scaring the ex-thief witless.

Contrary to his physical appearance, Trode is shown to be quite stealthy and he can even hold his own in combat, being able to fend off an armed guard in the ending with nothing more than a stick. He and Yangus have a recurring routine in which Trode will often appear out of nowhere during a scene, scaring the ex-thief witless.

Throughout the story, Trode offers wisdom and insight for the party as they travel the world, on the [[Battle Records]] menu. He also refurbishes an [[~~Krak~~ Pot~~|alchemy pot~~]] he managed to recover from Castle Trodain, as it is an important and invaluable item for crafting new items and weapons.
