For the monster class in Dragon Quest VII, see Prism peacock (Vocation).

The Prism Peacock is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in the Dragon Quest Monsters series, it is a quadrupedal bird of various colors.

Characteristics

The prism peacock is a technicolor terror of miscellaneous avian features on a slightly humanoid body. Its exact capabilities vary between games, but it is always a fleet-footed enemy that attacks with intensely hot flames. Interestingly, the original design for the monster showed it as a true quadruped with shoulder parallel to its hips: this depiction has been ditched for the modern, man-like posture that shows it with a distinct separation between its upper and lower limbs.
