The Peahooter is a monster introduced in Dragon Quest VII.
Characteristics
Peahooters are mischievous little blue bothersome goblin monsters floating through the sky, strapped to several pieces of string that's slung around the claws of a trio of spooky brown oblivious owls. They wear a green tunic and a top heavy hat that doesn't aid in the aiming and wielding of their wicked little bows, though they love raining down arrows against enemies from above. They bare a striking resemblance to bodkin archers, although the shots from these incompetent firers are often way off the mark. Their avian entourage of owls are oddly happy to help out whenever their clumsy cargo fall, picking them straight back up with the strangely strong string.
Appearances
