The Magmalice is a monster in the series.

Characteristics

Magmalices are elemental monsters made up from volcanic rock, with only the top of its head and its right arm protruding from the ground. It attacks by breathing out fiery breath of varying intensity. When they reappeared in Dragon Quest IX, they also gained the ability to psyche themselves up, smack enemies around with their giant hands, and toss boulders, as well. The monster's name is a play on the words "magma" and "malice". It is the fire equivalent of the firn fiend.
