Appearances

Dragon Quest X

Making its debut in Version 7.0, the Dragon Magician its a magic-oriented vocation that establishes a contract with a powerful dragon, in order to borrow its powers, using a Dragon Magician Stone as a medium to stave off any possible negative effects the sudden surge of draconic power may cause.

Dragon Magicians can equip Heavy wands, Scythes, Bows, one-handed Wands, and light Shields, and can learn several Earth-based spells, like Rubblerouser or the new Kadogan, as well as the Dragon skill tree (ドラゴン) of abilities.

Like other Masterclass vocations, as opposed to previous vocations, Dragon Magicians don't have any Coup de Grâce (or Special moves), they can instead reach a new state called Pep Power (ゾーン技 Zone Waza, from Dragon Quest XI). During this state, stats will increase according to the vocation and the Hero will be able to use Pep Skills once, with the Pep status lasting until the battle is either won or lost; Dragon Magicians learn the spell Puff! as their Pep Power.

Unlock Conditions

• The Vocations of Mage and Armamentalist must be at Level 100
• Having completed both the Mage and Armamentalist Questlines.
• Having completed all of the Skill Master Quests

In Astoltia, Dragon Magicians began a few hundred years ago, when a young Mage, Lange was bullied by her fellow magic classmen for her lack of talent. One day, they threw in a gorge her beloved pendant, a keepsake of her parents, which ended up hooked on the jagged rocky wall of the pit; Lange spent the next days trying her best to retrive the pendant with her magic. Umbeknownst to her, a dragon named Baguis, was watching her from not too far; while initially greatly irritated by her fumbling around and costant failures, Baguis eventually ended up respecting her steadiness and willfulness.

Eventually, Lange was able to lift the pendant in the air, but, just as it was within reach, her concentration slipped, and the pendant began to fall into the void; instincively trying to reach it, Lange herself fell into the gorge. Baguis immediately wanted to rescue her, but his body was too big to do so directly, so he asked the local mages to do so, who misunderstood and thought Baguis wanted Lange as a sacrifice, leading to the dragon earning a bad reputation. To cure Lange, Baguis shared some of his blood, and the two of them became fast friends; Lange, her power now increased and her aging process slowed down by the dragon blood, then became the first Dragon Magician.

Unfortunately, the other mage classmates, jealous of Lange's sudden improvement, took her hostage, and forced Baguis to relinquish more blood for themselves. However, unlike Lange, they all reacted poorly to the blood, and transformed into shadowy dragon monsters; what's worse, in their frenzy they began to feed on each other, until one individual absorbed so much dragon blood that evolved into a terrifingly powerful monster, Void Dragon King Griedel, who razed to the ground the whole mage's village, before Lange and Baguis managed to seal him deep underground. In the following centuries Lange. alongside Baguis, researched a way to safely create new Dragon Magicians, and began to recruit other mages willing to learn her newly discovered way to perform magic, in order to create a contingency force against Griedel when he would inevitably resurrect himself. Unfortunately, the final battle against Griedel costed Lange her life in order to ensure Baguis survival, but she left the world glad to having met the dragon, and leaving the duty to train new Dragon Magicians to her students Aspa and Ruin.
