| | The '''Prancing pillar''' is a recurring monster in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series, first appearing in ''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''. It can found in [[El Monumento de Pomposo]] as a forced battle and regularly in the [[World's Tallest Tower]]. | ||
| | |||
==Characteristics== | |||
Massively monstrous powerful [[Material family|pillars]] that ambush adventurers, waving their flaming fiery sconces that they swing to sear opponents with. They also fling fire at foes with '''Frizz''' and their wild weird dances deftly drain the magic straight out of stunned onlookers, leaving parties of adventurers more vulnerable. Their bodies are surprisingly flexible, able to contort in a snakelike fashion and use their malleable bodies to hammer foes. | |||

Prancing pillar's original Japnese name, Entasisman, is a reference to the architectural term "entasis", which is the application of convex curves to the surface of a structure for aesthetic purposes. Its most well-known usage is on the classical pillars of ancient Rome and Greece, which the Prancing pillar is modeled after. | |||
