Dragon Quest Wiki

Drackolyte is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series.

Characteristics[]

An evolution of the staple dracky, these lepidopteran creatures in crimson have only begun to study magic. They are not much stronger than a typical dracky, but their spells can frustrate underprepared adventurers if they themselves do not run low on MP first. Depending on the title, they may rank a bit below or a bit above a drackyma.
