File:Trode.jpg Trode is a character in Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King and Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker.

Dragon Quest VIII

Trode is a good monarch, consumed with the well-being of his kingdom and especially of his daughter, but shows little concern for anything else. After being cursed with a hideous, toad like from, Trode travels via a wagon hitched to his now turned horse daugther (a fact that he often is upset by). Throughout the story, Trode offers wisdom and insight for the party as they travel the world in search of Dhoulmagus, and later Rhapthorne. He is responsible for crafting the alchemy pot, an important item for crafting new items and weapons. After the defeat of Dhoulmagus, Trode is almost heartbroken by the fact that his and Medea's curse still lingers. However, once the demon Rhapthorne is finally defeated, the two are restored to normal. In the epilogoue, King Trode decides to disrupt the arranged marriage of his daugther to Prince Charmles of Argonia, and is hinted to be quite pleased with the romantic nature between Medea and the hero. In the special ending, he becomes the Hero's father-in-law after the revelation of the hero being revealed to be of noble birth.

He and Yangus have a recurring routine in which Trode will often appear out of nowhere during a scene, scaring the ex-thief witless.
