'''Mandrake major''' is a recurring monster in the {{DQSeries}}. Introduced in {{DQ5}}, it is a humanoid dragon armed for combat.
The '''Mandrake major''' is a monster in the series.
 
In the main series, it is usually the weakest of the Mandrake family of monsters, generally being the first monster of its kind players encounter in the games it appears in, with the exception of {{Dragon Quest VII}} where it is stronger than the regular (i.e. non-boss) variant of the [[Mandrake mercenary]].


==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
Mandrake majors are blue-green scaled dragons with spikey orange spines and wide wing webbing. They are humanoid in pose, hunched and ready for battle, though their limbs are short enough to make them look better suited for quadrupedal movement, and have great wicked wings and a long neck and whipping tail. They are equipped with a shining sword and shield, as well as wearing armor and a helm that fits their rigid reptilian heads.  
Mandrake majors are blue-green scaled bipedal dragons with a large pair of wings on their backs, long tails, and spines running down their backs. They have a pair of curved black horns on their heads and their spines and wing membranes are orange. The mandrakes wield a curved sword and round shield in battle, and wear metal breastplates and helmets, along with metal bands on their wrists and ankles. Mandrake majors can be formidable foes, armed with stunning attack strength and knowledge of enemy encumbering spells such as '''[[Kasap]]''' and '''[[Oomph]]''' to boost their attack to even higher heights.

==Trivia==
*[[Mandrake mangler]] (''IX'')
* The mandrake major's original name and Japanese name {{translation|リザードマン|Rizādoman,|Lizardman}} is a common name for reptilian humanoids, especially those that appear in fantasy works. In the tabletop game ''[[Wikipedia:Dungeons & Dragons|Dungeons & Dragons]]'', lizardfolk are a race of primitive reptilian humanoids that are fiercely territorial and lurk in swamps and jungles. They are thought to be distantly related to kobolds and dragons.
