'''Slime knights''' are dwarfed humanoids that sit astride green {{Slime}}s, a variety yet to be faced alone. The small knights are armed with swords and shields, their shields bearing the likeness of a slime. When performing a [[Critical Hit]], the knight will pummel foes with their slippery steeds.

The monster duo can be far more formidable than one might initially believe, Slime knights being capable of performing strong attacks and even have a limited knowledge of healing magic. They can also be very enduring, boasting decent defenses and surprisingly pervasive elemental resilience. According to the Monster Library entry in {{Joker}}, it is actually the [[Slime]] that is giving the orders for the duo. In more recent games such as {{X}} and {{XI}} which show monsters on the field, the [[Slime]] and the knight have been seen walking next to each other. It is unknown if the [[Lime slime]] is related to the Slime knight.

Starting from the ''Definitive Edition'', if a Slime knight is sparkling, its slime [[Horse and monster riding|mount]] can be ridden after defeating it in battle, though compared to most ride-able monsters where the original rider disappears after being defeated in battle, the rider of the Slime knight does not disappear. When ridden, the [[Hero (Dragon Quest XI)|Luminary]] holds the Slime knight's sword and shield while hopping along the ground. The Luminary can use the sword to defeat some monsters along the path. The original rider can be also seen holding onto its slime steed while the Luminary moves about.
