A caper tiger is a monster who appears in Dragon Quest VII.
Characteristics[]
As a member of a family that includes the weartiger, a caper tiger is yet another creature in a cat costume. three traits make it more dangerous than its close cousin, the shabby cat: first, its basic attacks are stronger than those of a shabby cat; second, it knows Heal, and may use it when attacked; third, it can sizzle with fire breath. Fortunately, the caper tiger does not blow sand into its attackers' eyes, though its persistence in healing can make for rather drawn-out fights.

Etymology[]
This beast's name is a pun that intertwines a caper (nonsensical or illicit stunt) with a paper tiger, a political euphemism for something that might seem a threat, but is genuinely harmless.
