Kissers are slug monsters with mottled dark green skin, salmon underbellies, and pink lips that hide blue tongues. In battle, they debilitate adventurers by exhaling out sweet-smelling breath or stunning them with their vile tongues. Starting with Dragon Quest XI, kissers also gained the ability to send out kisses to stun any unfortunate traveler they face and some protective magic to ward themselves and their allies against harmful spells.
A trio of kissers are fought alongside Wyatt in the fourth battle at Allblades Arena. They should be taken out first to prevent them from putting the party to sleep with their Sweet Breath. Boomerangs, Whips, and Ruff's wolf abilities will make quick work of them before focusing on Wyatt himself.
Kisser appears as an A-rank monster of the Nature family during the second part of the Behold the Ultimate Automaton! Battle the Mindini Hunter! event. It will join the party in Chapter 2, Episode 1 of the event quests and it can be fully awakened through repeating the quest at any difficulty. The kisser also stars in its own Battle Road.
