Rigor Mortex: Difference between revisions

}}

'''Rigor Mortex''' is a superboss in ''[[Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2]]'', the main antagonist of said game and the source of practically all of the conflicts that torment the inhabitants of the island. It was created by a man named Zehlam to become more powerful than even the legendary warrior and ruler of the island, [[Leonyx]]. Zehlam was betrayed, however, by the pure evil Rigor Mortex had absorbed from the island and its inhabitants.

Rigor Mortex is found in the [[Dark World (Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2)|Dark World]] after all the "dark crystals" are broken by the player, in a giant room with stained glass past a room filled with cogs. Once it is encountered, it speaks philosophically to emphasize its evil demeanor and truly shows no mercy in battle.

After its defeat, it will drop the [[Royal rod|Royal Rod]] and players will notice a pillar and skeleton behind it. The pillar is marked with the 'special' family mark; however, it is unknown what it is used for. If players examine the skeleton behind it, it is revealed to be none other then Zehlam himself. He carries a note that reads as follows: 'My name is Zehlam... I was betrayed... by my own hand... Rigor Mortex was a mirror... It reflected our all-too humans desires... I was betrayed by my own hand...'

Rigor Mortex is the most difficult monster to synthesize because of the two monsters needed in order to be created, Leonyx and [[Zenith Dragon]]. However, requiring two [[Captain Crow|Captain Crows]] renders most players (outside of Japan) unable to create it partly because of the lack of players near their location to trade/scout and partly because Captain Crow is a one-time monster. However, if you have two games and two devices, you can duplicate Captain Crow.
