First appearance	Dragon Quest IX

The Chariot chappie is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, first appearing in Dragon Quest IX. It is a goblin-like monster that attacks by charging on the back of a living wooden chariot.

Characteristics

Chariot chappies are small, pointy-headed humanoid creatures with olive green skin riding atop an animated wooden chariot armed with sharpened stakes. Their chariots have red eyes with yellow irises and they have crudely carved mouths that are wide open. The wagons are fully capable of moving on their own, requiring no animal to draw them. The rider and chariot attack in combination, rushing at adventurers traveling on foot at high speed with their crude lances in an attempt to knock them out of action. In some spinoff games, as well as Dragon Quest X, the chappies are considered part of the Material family due to their chariots.

Description	These crazy carters career into combat, crashing into the competition and occasionally causing them to cramp up. Nihilistic nutjobs, they wander the wilds with their chattering chariot chumbs, laying waste to all who get in their way.

Dragon Quest X

Reappearing from 7.1 onwards, they are now classified as part of the Material family just like in the Monsters series prior to Joker 3 Professional. They attack with Body Slam and cast Kabuff just like their Corrupt Carter comrades.
