'''Bloomingdale''' is a port town in {{Dragon Quest IX}}.

It is located to the southwest of [[Dourbridge]]. It is the location where the {{Hero 9}} acquires a [[ship]].

==Synopsis==
{{spoiler|start}}
Bloomingdale can be reached as soon as the player reaches [[Slurry Quay]]. After arriving in town, the {{Hero 9}} learns that there is an unused ship in the harbor. On [[Stella]]'s advice, the {{Hero 9}} goes to look at the ship and learns that it is owned by [[List of characters in Dragon Quest IX#Marion Bloome|Marion Bloome]]. Going to speak with Ms. Bloome, the {{Hero 9}} learns that Marion's parents died some time ago and that she has been very generous ever since. However, while talking to Marion, she becomes very irate and throws the Hero 9}} out.  

The {{Hero 9}} goes to Marion's former nurse and gets some advice about what to do. A former toy maker still lives in town and claims that Marion always used to speak to him even when she would not speak to others. He made a very special doll that looked like Marion. However, when the Hero returns to the mansion with him, they find a ransom note for Marion who has been taken to [[The Bad Cave]].  

The {{Hero 9}} then sees the ghost of Marion, which leads him/her to a secret graveyard behind the house. Here, the {{Hero 9}} learns that Marion was very sick as a child. Someone brought a [[Fygg]] to her hoping that it would heal her.  Marion tried to give half of the Fygg to her doll, which then came to life as [[List of characters in Dragon Quest IX#Marionette|Marionette]]. Marion died shortly afterward and Marionette buried her with her parents in the secret graveyard. Marionette then took over the role of Marion to the townspeople.  

The {{Hero 9}} must go to [[The Bad Cave]] in order to rescue Marionette and receive the ship.
