The Frogface is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in Dragon Quest VIII, it is a frog monster with a demonic face on its back.
Characteristics
At first glance, Frogfaces are just magenta-colored frogs with two horns poking up from behind their heads. However, once attacked, they will turn around and reveal the yellow-eyed, blue-tongued face on their backs. If attacked again, they will turn back around to being primarily frogs.
As they first appear, Frogfaces pose no true threat. They can only execute a weak attack or runaway while acting as frogs. It is when the back-situated face is shown that the monster becomes dangerous: its basic attack becomes much stronger and it gains the ability to cast spells and use breath attacks.

Frogfaces appear primarily in the Alexandria region, notably within the Tower of Alexandria. Because of the threat they can pose to low-leveled characters, especially after being provoked into showing their second faces, it is wise to try and defeat them in a single blow by either using strong abilities or psyching up to bolster attacks that normally wouldn't cut it.
