Aquatic family

File:DQIII Merking.png

A Merking, one of the more emblematic aquatic monsters

Aquatic family (Japanese Kanji: 水 Hiragana: みず Romanji: Mizu Water) are monsters Dragon Quest series that are based on water-dwelling animals, or are water-related. Due to lack of a significant number of members in certain titles, the members are split among the other families or are put into the nature family.

It should be noted that aquatic monsters are not restricted to bodies of water; several species will attempt to make a meal of travelers on dry land.
