Cloth of Darkness is a recurring trait/skill in the Dragon Quest series.
Appearances[]
Dragon Quest III[]
Making its debut, it is present on Zoma during the final battle against him, increasing his defence against attacks and making his spells and abilities more deadly. It must be removed with the Sphere of Light in order to make him more vulnerable.
Dragon Quest II HD-2D Remake[]
Only appearing in the game's HD-2D Remake, it is used by Malwrath at the start of his battle and can only be removed by Erdrick's supreme sword, but otherwise acts the same as in XI and III.
Dragon Quest X[]
Now a skill, it is used by Anlucia the Maluminary, her master, Tegram, Gullray Beast, Gosnell, Evil God Yafagil, Jagonuba's final forme, and Agent Yona to increase the damage of their attacks and spells, reducing damage they may take, and increasing their resistance to status aliments. It can be removed with Anlucia's Luminary’s Light skill, though they will eventually reapply it to themselves until the battle against them is won or lost.
Dragon Quest XI[]
Acting the same as in III, it is used by Calasmos at the start of his battle, though it can be removed with the Super Sword of Light when it’s used as an item in battle.
Dragon Quest: Monster Battle Road Series[]
Reappearing from Battle Road onwards, it is once again worn by Zoma and raises his HP to 12,500, but can be reduced to 7,000 if the player uses the Sphere of Light card.
Dragon Quest Heroes[]
Once again present on Zoma, the player can either dispel it with the Sphere of Light given to them by Gragwort or leave it be, though the latter option would make the battle more harder.
Dragon Quest Heroes II[]
Known as Cover of Darkness, it is applied to all monsters in Accordia from the Cup of Kings, rendering them immune to damage from any attack and spell, even Coups de Grâce. It can only be dispelled with the Heart of Brightness, which is found in the Tomb of the Sun after defeating the Tombinators.
Dragon Quest Monsters: Super Light[]
Appearing as a trait for Zoma, Maldragora, and Mystvearn, it allows them to resist any status conditions for 3 turns of a whole battle.
