The Soul of Baramos is a monster that was first introduced in Dragon Quest III. Despite what it's name implies, it is not the soul of Zoma's right-hand demon made manifest but a separate monster with it's an identity all it's own.

Characterisctics

The design of Soul of Baramos is merely a different color scheme of Baramos. However, instead of using a warm color scheme, this monster is portrayed with a cool color scheme. Disposition-wise it is more proactive than Baramos, personally ambushing the Hero instead of relying on minions to do the dirty work.

Draconian difficulty strategy

The initial fight at the Tower of Rubiss isn't that bad. Just make sure to run the full complement of 7 asbestos earrings to neuter Kafrizz and Inferno, keep buffs up and clear out the ashdemon support and he shouldn't be too much of a problem.

His rematch in the bottom of Zoma's Citadel is a different story. Blasto being a possibility as soon as the fight starts combined with 2-3 actions and Thwack throws reliability off the table, as asbestos earrings stacking won't save you now. However, unlike the older versions, he is not immune to Snooze this time around, with zero resistance like the King Hydra. Therefore, the strategy is still the same: have the duplic hat holder outspeed him with Snooze to deny him as many turns as possible. As long as the duplic hat holder isn't Thwacked or ejected by Blasto, the party should have little issue surviving the rest of the boss' moveset, and due to a lack of passive regeneration on the boss, the player shouldn't have much problem simply healing off any damage taken during the turns where the Soul of Baramos isn't asleep.
