'''Ruin''' is a recurring monster in the ''[[Dragon Quest series]]''. Introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest VIII]]'', it is the crumbling remnants of a castle, reanimated and taking the shape of a monster with a large right arm.

==Characteristics==

Ruin is composed of the many broken segments taken from a fortress of some kind, notably towers, pillars, and walls. These pieces are crudely held together, some staying aloft from the body, to take the shape of a bulky upper-body with a head and a right arm. A left arm appears to be present but is incomplete.

Think of a Ruin as a [[Magmalice]] on a grand scale, just without the fire magic.

Massive and powerful, but also slow, Ruin acted as a boss in its first appearance and maintains the power of that position in its later appearance in the series.
