Restless armours are simple blue [[Material family|suits of armour]] armed with a {{Sword}} and [[Shield]]. They are the souls of swordsmen who have returned to the mortal realm by possessing suits of armour to continue fighting, though some spin-offs ignore this established notion and have fun alluding to what could really be inside the plates of steel.
Restless armours are simple bluish-grey [[Material family|suits of armour]] armed with a [[Sword Weapon Family|sword]] and [[shield]]. They are the souls of swordsmen who have returned to the mortal realm by possessing suits of armour to continue fighting, though some spin-offs ignore this established notion and have fun alluding to what could really be inside the plates of steel. In some games, they are even considered [[Undead family|undead]] due to being possessed by restless souls.


Typically a physical powerhouse, Restless armours will strike with their swords and occasionally deliver critical blows, regularly depicted as a full-force swing after the Restless armour's upper body winds back at the waist. While usually without magical abilities, they can often call [[Healslime]]s into the battle to undo any damage they took.

Restless armours have been shown to speak with a degree of nobility to their words, as one might expect of a knight. Their speech also tends to be interrupted by sudden 'clank!'s, possibly from their visors falling down or maybe simply due to their being nothing but clattering armor.

Revision as of 16:48, 19 May 2024

For the cursed suit of armour from Dragon Quest V, see Restless armour (Equipment).

The Restless armour is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in Dragon Quest III, it is an empty suit of armour that has taken on a life of its own.

Characteristics

Restless armours are simple bluish-grey suits of armour armed with a sword and shield. They are the souls of swordsmen who have returned to the mortal realm by possessing suits of armour to continue fighting, though some spin-offs ignore this established notion and have fun alluding to what could really be inside the plates of steel. In some games, they are even considered undead due to being possessed by restless souls.

Typically a physical powerhouse, restless armours will strike with their swords and occasionally deliver critical blows, regularly depicted as a full-force swing after the restless armour's upper body winds back at the waist. While usually without magical abilities, they can often call Healslimes into the battle to undo any damage taken.

Restless armours have been shown to speak with a degree of nobility to their words, as one might expect of a knight. Their speech also tends to be interrupted by sudden 'clank!'s, possibly from their visors falling down or maybe simply due to their being nothing but clattering armour.

Dragon Quest X

Restless armours began appearing from Version 2 of the game onward, being first encountered in the False Renshinda and can also be recruited by Item Masters. As always, they are able to land desperate attacks and can call for back up from Healslimes, as well as gaining the ability to perform Armour Harmer. Starting with Version 2.2, restless armours gained a rarefied version in the form of the Schwarzchuld.

Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime

Restless armours first appear and can only be found in the game's final area, the Flying Clawtress. They can use their shields to block frontal attacks, though being struck once from behind will cause them to drop it and lose their defensive prowess. A Restless armour defeated outside of a tank battle will always drop a Steel broadsword if a lucky bag isn't produced.
