Aamon embodies the worst stereotypes of his kind, using Psaro's faith in monsterkind to avoid suspicion and trigger the events that would lead to the final battle of ''Dragon Quest IV''. His original hope was that Psaro and the [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|Hero]]'s party would destroy each other in their battle, enabling him to ascend to Psaro's position as master of all monsters. He is killed in Nadiria in the original version of the game, but the PSX remake (and subsequent ports) expand his role to that of the game's true villain. Having cultivated the [[Secret of Evolution]] unbeknownst to Psaro, he takes control of the Diabolic Hall.
