Gadabouts march to the beat of their own drum, often ignoring any commands from the player for their own buffoonery that can have positive or negative impact on the party. The number of possible antics increases with their level or rank, depending on the game, with more extreme actions becoming available. Quite literally a ''joke'' character, the Gadabout is poor in nearly every attribute, save for their incredible luck in ''III'' and a small style boost in ''VI'' and ''VII''.

In ''X'', the gadabout is not as foppish as in past games and players can control their chaos by selecting when to goof off instead of at random. The effects are still unpredictable, however.

Gadabouts were added to the game in the Version 4.3 update. They are the frailest profession in the game as per series tradition, and can make use of {{Sword}}s {{Boomerang}}s, {{Hammer}}s, {{Knives}}, Fisticuffs, Shields, and their personal skillset. Unlike the controlled chaos of the [[Fortune Teller]] vocation, the Gadabout is a genuine gambling class where the player puts their fate in the hands of [[Rubiss]]. Their clown antics can range from mundane jokes to elaborate performances straight out of a gag manga, and are just as likely to affect their allies as they do the enemy. A Gadabout's [[Coup de Grâce]] technique is [[Hocus Pocus]], which has been altered to never hinder the party while still selecting a random effect for enemies.

===きまぐれな action list===
As mentioned above, these translations are not official and are presented purely as a convenience for English-speaking fans. Each action has the character make one of three awful puns when performed, being one of the few times in which the player's avatar speaks in any Dragon Quest game.
