A gem slime is, as suggested by its name, shaped like a gem, a trait most apparent when viewed from the side since its back tapers to a point away from its front. It also has a tiara-like crown that bends back and appears to be attached to the point of its gem-shaped body. As indicated by its original name, it is gold in color.

Gem slimes are typically the best sources of gold in the games they appear in, netting an adventurer several thousand for defeating one.  


Gem slimes, depending on the game they appear in, act either as metal monsters or gold monsters, paying out high experience as the former and high gold as the latter. They have the typical statistics of a metal monster when acting as one, though they still retain some degree of resistance when acting as a source of gold, though not nearly as much as metal monsters.
The gem slime's distinct design was lent to a pair of pallet swaps when it was added to the main series in ''VII'', being the [[Emperor slime]] and [[Platinum king jewel]].

The gem slime is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in Dragon Quest Monsters, it is a slime in the shape of a brilliant, golden jewel.

Characteristics

A gem slime is, as suggested by its name, shaped like a brilliant-cut diamond a trait most apparent when viewed from the side since its back tapers to a point away from its front. It also has a tiara-like crown that bends back and appears to be attached to the point of its jewel-shaped body. Gem slimes are typically the best sources of gold in the games they appear in, netting an adventurer several thousand for defeating one.

The gem slime's distinct design was lent to a pair of pallet swaps when it was added to the main series in VII, being the Emperor slime and Platinum king jewel.

Description They await adventurers with a graceful grin, then maul them with Magic Burst. Immune to all magic.

These shining slimes were long sought by adventurers, thanks to a tale that told of all they touched turned to gold.

Gem slimes appear as one of the grotto-specific monsters found in the game, specifically appearing in the tomb-like grottoes. They have metal monster-like stats and are capable of casting Magic Burst, though defeating even one will net the player more than 10,000 gold. Adventurers seeking riches can farm gem slimes with Thunder Thrust and Hatchet Man to quickly earn enough money for even the most expensive purchases, such as Chronocrystals, which cost a staggering 50,000 coins each. However, moneymakers should still remain wary of the powerful Magic Burst, as it can take out an unprepared party, especially when multiple Gem Slimes are present in battle.
