The Bone Baron is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in Dragon Quest IV, it is an undead aristocrat that rides atop a deathly blue horse.
An aristocratic lancer atop a rabid steed is one way to describe a Bone Baron. Its coloring has a strong emphasis on blue in most of its appearances. The rider has the stereotypical appearance of a fop, wearing a powdered wig on top of their skulls, a black wide-brimmed hat with a white plume, a long blue coat, white trousers, and red leather boots and gloves. In their right hands, they wield a lance and in their left, a heater shield.
The rider and steed that compose the Bone Baron are both monsters but act as a single unit in battle. The rider performs most of the attacking duties whilst the steed offers it greater mobility.
The bone baron can be in the Vogograd region in Disc 2, the Wind Tower and Wind Maze. There is a rare chance that the bone barons will drop a bone baron heart, allowing the player to become a bone baron by taking it to Alltrades Abbey.
Undead aristocrats who like nothing better than poking holes in proles from atop their rabid steeds. Even in death, they take pride in their high birth, and often throw fancy feasts for their fellow blue-bodied beasts.
