Sham hatwitches are piglet-like monsters with brown fur that wear big, wide-brimmed beige hat with jagged brown patterns on it that resembles a growling monster. Their big hats almost completely obscure their small black eyes and tiny tusks. The sham hatwitches have a particular affinity for fire magic and can even breathe out fiery breath from the mouths on their hats, however, they are also cowardly monsters and tend to shy away underneath their hats. Its name is a play on the term "ham sandwich".
Boarish beasts who set out on journeys of personal discovery in order to overcome their cowardice. Though they still hide behind the broad brims of their beloved headwear, they have become far less timid.
Sham hatwitch appears as an E-rank monster of the Beast family as part of the original Dragon Quest X event. It can be recruited from the Sham Hatwitch stage of the Astoltia Ecological Survey at any difficulty, eventually being recruitable in Part 4 of the main storyline from Chapter 2, Episode 1: Guided by the Light. The sham hatwitch can participate in Estelle's Battle Road as a party member.
