The '''hero''' of [[Dragon Quest V]] starts off as a young boy who is journeying with his father [[Papas]] on a boat. As the hero and [[Papas]] are getting of the boat the hero meets [[Flora]] who he will meet later in the game.  When they arrive in the town of Santa Rosa the hero also meets [[Sancho]] and [[Bianca]] whom he later befriends.  While [[Papas]] takes care of his own business the hero goes off to have adventures of his own and befriends [[Bianca]] and the sabrecat [[Borongo]].  After [[Papas]] finishes his business he and the hero leave for [[Reinhart]] castle where [[Papas]] and the hero are in charge of keeping an eye on the young prince [[Henry]] but when [[Henry]] is abducted [[Papas]] rushes off to the cave where he was taken and the hero follows soon after.  In the cave you meet up with [[Papas]] and find [[Henry]] but are ambushed by monsters.  [[Papas]] stays behind to let the hero and [[Henry]] escape and when you reach then end of the cave you run into the demon [[Gema]] who easily defeats your party.  [[Papas]] catches up to you and then gives his life to save the hero and [[Henry]] but not before telling you about your past and how he was once king but left on a journey to find your mother after she was kidnapped by monsters.  Afterwards you are sent to a slave camp for ten years.  When ten years pass you are now grown up and manage to finally escape along with [[Henry]] and another woman.

The '''Hero''' is the main character of ''[[Dragon Quest V]]''. Like all protagonists in the [[Dragon Quest (series)|''Dragon Quest'' series]], the player provides him with a name of his choosing.


Later on in the game you meet [[Bianca]] again in a mountain village while looking for two rings for Ludman's daughter, Flora's, marraige so you can get the [[Zenithian Shield]]. She accompanies you back to the town of [[Salabona]] where Ludman asks that you choose to marry either [[Flora]] or [[Bianca]]. Whoever you choose will marry you and travel together with you. When you reach your kingdom of [[Granvania]] you will discover that your wife is pregnant and she will stay in the castle to rest. After returning from the cave of trials you find out that your wife is giving birth and soon after she has a baby boy and girl. After a night of celebrating yoru wife is kidnapped in the middle of the night by a monster. While trying to rescue her you learn that she has the blood of the legendary hero in her and you are defeated and turned to stone for several years until your kids come and break the spell on you. When you arrive at the great temple later in the game you discover that your wife who has also been turned to stone is there and is finally rescued from the clutches of evil. With the family reunited its up to you to defeat the evil of the world.
Unlike a majority of ''Dragon Quest'' games, which focus on the chosen one destined to strike down evil, ''Dragon Quest V'' tells the story of the prophet who guides and aids this chosen one, making for a unique experience. The player also has the choice of having the Hero marry (and later have children with) either [[Bianca]] or [[Flora]], or, in the [[DS]] remake, [[Deborah]]. Because of this setup, the game follows the Hero over a period of 20 years, another unique element. The hero is a very versatile fighter. He can equip swords, boomerangs, whips, staffs, and flails. He also is very good in magic, although his spells mainly revolve aroung healing magic. He can learn Heal, Antidote, Infernos, Healmore, X-Ray, Outside, Infermore, Robmagic, Healall, Infermost, and Chance, a spell that has random effect ranging from nothing to shooting stars leaving every enemy and party member with one HP. He can equip the best equipment in the game, the metal king sword, helm, armour, and shield.

The Hero is the main character of Dragon Quest V. Like all protagonists in the Dragon Quest series, the player provides him with a name of his choosing.

Unlike a majority of Dragon Quest games, which focus on the chosen one destined to strike down evil, Dragon Quest V tells the story of the prophet who guides and aids this chosen one, making for a unique experience. The player also has the choice of having the Hero marry (and later have children with) either Bianca or Flora, or, in the DS remake, Deborah. Because of this setup, the game follows the Hero over a period of 20 years, another unique element. The hero is a very versatile fighter. He can equip swords, boomerangs, whips, staffs, and flails. He also is very good in magic, although his spells mainly revolve aroung healing magic. He can learn Heal, Antidote, Infernos, Healmore, X-Ray, Outside, Infermore, Robmagic, Healall, Infermost, and Chance, a spell that has random effect ranging from nothing to shooting stars leaving every enemy and party member with one HP. He can equip the best equipment in the game, the metal king sword, helm, armour, and shield.
