The '''Hero of Dragon Quest VIII''' was a low-ranking royal guardsmen in Trodain Castle. He was one of the small band who survived Dhoulmagus' deadly attack, along with his current traveling companions [[Trode]], [[Medea]] and [[Munchie]], the faithful mouse who lives in the Hero's bag.

The Hero is a versatile character, as equally proficient in armed combat as he is in using healing spells and support magic. His preferred weapons are swords, spears and boomerangs.

==Appearance and Personality==

Like all ''Dragon Quest'' [[Hero|heroes]], the Hero is perpetually silent throughout the game. He is half-[[human]] and half-[[Dragovian]]. His father is Eltrio, an [[Argonian]] prince who is the elder brother of the Argonian king of the kingdom of [[Argonia]], [[Clavius]]. His mother is [[Xia]], a Dragovian girl.

In contrast to heroes of other games, this Hero dresses very casually, a consequence of his lowborn upbringing as opposed to being royalty or some kind of chosen one. He also does not appear to wear any kind of armour (irrespective of whatever he may actually have equipped). His red bandana has become one of his iconic features. ''Dragon Quest VIII'' has a character's in-game appearance change based on their weapon and shield, a first for the series.

==Munchie==

The Hero carries around his pet, Munchie, wherever he goes. A highly intelligent, mouse-sized, monster-like animal, Munchie is capable of entering small spaces and exploring areas the party would otherwise have no access to. Munchie rides in a pocket of the Hero's coat most of the time.
