Editing Hero's Mother (Dragon Quest III) (section)

==Appearance and personality==
The mother of the Hero does not have official artwork drawn by [[Akira Toriyama]], but her cameo in the eleventh game's ending gives her a fully rendered and distinct polygon model based on the V-jump magazine illustration seen to the right. She wears a blue dress with a long-sleeved under blouse and a plain white apron, with her purple hair being tied up in a ponytail cast over her left should. Her face is obscured from the player beyond one brief glimpse, and she has blue eyes.

As a young girl, she fell deeply in love with Ortega and cherished their time together. She feared he would not return from his mission to slay the archfiend [[Baramos]], and shows great emotional and mental strength by proposing that her child will succeed in their father's task when news of his disappearance reaches Aliahan. She resolves to raise their child on her own (with the help of her father-in-law) rather than remarry in light of Ortega's supposed death at the [[Great Pit of Giaga]], holding out hope that her husband is still alive somewhere in the world and will return to her one day.

The woman is a very doting mother who is mindful of her child's well-being, insisting that he/she get as much rest as they can while visiting. She carries a perpetually cheery attitude, well-loved by the people of the kingdom as a spot of sunshine where ever she goes. Deep down, however, she harbors strong insecurities about her child venturing forth to save the world and, if the Hero's party speaks to her while the protagonist is dead, she will begin to panic and beg the group to save her little boy/girl.
