Revision as of 23:55, 12 December 2018

The Orochi is a many headed monster found in Enix's Dragon Quest III. The dreadful beast and the events surrounding Jipang and the arrival of Erdrick are based on the Japanese legend of the Yamata no Orochi.

Characteristics

The design of Orochi is the one of an enormous reptilian being which is covered in green scales and has five heads instead of one. At the top of each head there are grey purplish colored crests that go from the front of the head to the base of the neck. In each limb there are four fingers that end up in white, sharp claws. It has red eyes.

Story

In Dragon Quest III, the Orochi masquerades as the queen of the village of Jipang, demanding the sacrifice of young girls. When Erdrick defeated the Orochi in her lair, she dropped the Orochi sword, before retreating through a portal to Pimiko's Palace in Jipang. When it became clear that the Orochi was pretending to be Pimiko, Erdrick again fought the Orochi, slaying her and freeing the people of Jipang.

Orochi appears as the boss of the 100 Pals Room Gate, its speech and surroundings an allusion to its appearance in Dragon Quest III. Once Terry defeats it in battle, it will go on a rampage due to its being upset about losing. Its massive build and weight causes the bit of land Terry is standing on to start to give way, putting him in danger. Just in time, a mysterious cloaked swordsman (who is actually Terry's future self) arrives on the scene and finishes Orochi off, saving Terry's life. This entire scene will only occur if Terry defeats Orochi before clearing the Gate of Reflection.

Orochi can be bred through two ways. The first way (which is recommended) is breeding either a GreatDrak or an Andreal with a MedusaEye. The second way is breeding any dragon with a monster of the Boss family, with the dragon being the pedigree. Alternatively, Orochi can be stolen from a foreign master, although it will only appear at the highest level ranges. Orochi is required to breed both Xenlon and Baramos.
