Sluggerslaught

Sluggerslaught is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series.

Characteristics[]

The sluggerslaught are creepy crawling critters that jive and dive through deep caves, colored a radical red that hints at their hot hopping dances moves. They get foes into the groove by flexing and gyrating with their stupendous Sultry Dance, heal comrades with their miraculous Hustle Dance, Cheer them on to raise their Tension by 2, and if interrupted from their flouncing, they use Follow Suit to mimic an enemy's ability, hitting right back with the same attack.
