The mud mannequin is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in Dragon Quest II, it is a simple mannequin of dried clay brought to life.
Characteristics
edit
A member of the material family, the mud mannequin is a man-sized manic dancing animated doll, made of cracked clay that's just strong enough to hold the monster together. In games where the monsters have animations, the mud mannequin's joints are detachable and they collapse creepy into heaps of clay at the end of the battle. It has the ability to directly drain magic points straight from party members via the various wacky Weird Dances.

Mud mannequin is one of the four possible starter monsters Psaro can receive at the beginning of the game. Monty will offer it if the player answering "Yes" to the question: “Do you like weird and wonderful monsters?”. This question can be reached by answering "Yes" to “Would you say you prefer lovable monsters to more rugged types?”, then "No" to “And do you like more compact monsters?” or answering "No" to “Would you say you prefer lovable monsters to more rugged types?”, then "Yes" to “Would you prefer a monster with sleek skin to one that's on the furrier side?”.
