Game	VIII

Goldirox (Goldman in Dragon Quest VIII) is an recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series and a character in Dragon Quest Builders 2.

Appearance

As the Khrumbul-Dun chapter continues, Goldirox looks like various Golems throughout the series. He starts off as a Stone Golem. When he gets enough copper, he looks like the Mazin. Later he gains a coat of silver. Finally near the end of the chapter, he becomes a Gold golem. In-between his state as a Stone Golem and a Copper Golem, Goldirox assumed an unique appearance, in which his whole body was stone but his head was copper.

Personality

Goldirox is very kind, despite his Golem status, and becomes incredibly fond of Babs, eventually stating that he wishes to marry her, which everyone takes surprisingly seriously. He is very kind to the Builder, allowing them to ride him and tell him where to go and what to do, and helps them find the area where the player finds diamonds.

Dragon Quest Builders 2

Once the most beautiful man in all of Khrumbul-Dun, he was created by the Legendary Builder to be its guardian deity. When Goldirox refused the romantic advances of the Madusa, however, she turned him into a Stone golem and buried him in a cave covered with sand. The Builder finds Goldirox in a cave covered with sand. Whereas Dougie and Digby are terrified, Babs decides to give it the Copper, Silver and Gold it needs to get its power back. It helps open the way and eventually falls in line with the boys getting Babs to dance for them. He starts off as a very weak Stone golem, and can barely stand, but with help, he reaches Gold golem status, and can destroy really hard rocks the player could not break with their current hammer.

After the Madusa falls, Goldirox gets the chance to bring gold back to the mine and save Babs at the cost of his body. He accepts the responsibility and watches Khrumbul-Dun from the Gold Bar, which became infused with his soul.

Abilities

In VIII, Goldman can only do a normal and desperate attack, though he finds more support from the other 2 infamous Golem monsters and the infamous Goodybag monster.

In Builders 2, while Goldirox can't fight when you first meet him, he'll become available to ride roughly halfway into the chapter. He controls like a normal golem with punching walls.

During the Madusa fight, he'll gain golden gauntlets to deflect the Madusa's attacks back at her, allowing the humans to fight back.

Etymology

Goldirox is a play on Goldilocks, the title character of Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
