Wyrtle is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series.

Introduced in Dragon Quest III, it is a cross between a dragon (also known as a wyrm) and a turtle.

Characteristics

Wyrtles are large blue dragons that crawl on all fours like a turtle. Their most distinctive physical feature is the grey tortoise shell that covers its body, which they are able to withdraw in to defend themselves. Wyrtles have a pair of long curved horns on tops of their heads, fins on either side of their face, and jagged osteoderms running down the length of their body, all coloured a dull orange. The underside skin of their body vary between games, sometimes being coloured white and other times a brighter orange than their osteoderms. In combat, they are capable of utilizing different kinds of breath against unwitting adventurers, including Sweet Breath and Fire Breath.
