This is a list of characters in Dragon Quest VII.

Party members[]

The occupation title is listed in parentheses after the character's name. [For monster companions, the occupation title is the species.]

  • Hero (Fisherman's son) (主人公(アルス) 〔漁師の息子〕): A boy living in the fishing village of Pilchard Bay, on the island of Estard. Son of Pollock the fisherman, and Pearl. Unlike most people, he is able to read the writing on the crest of the Water Spirit which is tattooed on his arm. In the official illustrations, he has a small lizard sitting on his hand. Akira Toriyama has stated that the lizard is a symbol of his kindness; in the game this scene appears only briefly during the opening movie. The hero's stats grow in a balanced fashion, but he has high strength and attack power, and learns several healing spells. In the manga and screenshots, the hero's default name is Auster.
  • Maribel (Daughter of the Mayor) (マリベル 〔網元の娘〕): A childhood friend of the hero, she is the daughter of Mayor Mayde, the Mayor of PIlchard Bay. She is curious and self-absorbed, so she sneaks into her father's boat. She also insists on accompanying the hero and Kiefer to the ruins. While she has a fiery personality, she eventually is disturbed by the terrible things that happen in the party's presence. She leaves the party when her father grows ill, although she rejoins after the island is sealed. Her speed and MP are high, but her HP and attack power are low. She cannot use most low-level weapons, but gains magician-type spells early in the game.
  • Kiefer (Prince of Estard) (キーファ・グラン 〔城の王子〕): He is the hero's best friend. He is adventurous and suggests to the hero that they should explore the ruins (without telling his father, King Donald). He is curious about the mysterious stone fragment they find there. After learning its secret, he eventually falls in love with the dancer Lala, and decides to leave the party to live with her in the past. He can equip many types of arms and armour, and has high HP and attack power, but he has no MP and cannot cast spells.
  • Ruff / Gabo (Wolf boy) (ガボ 〔オオカミ少年〕): A White wolf transformed into a human by the magic of Hackrobat. He joins the party after the Hackrobat is defeated. He hopes that Hackrobat can restore his wolf form in the present world, but the spell fails, and he gains only the ability to speak human language. He has a strong sense of compassion and justice, and makes many optimistic comments. He is presented as a male version of San from Princess Mononoke. He speaks like Son Goku from Dragon Ball. He has low MP, but his other stats are high. He has a unique technique to summon other wolves to aid him in battle. He cannot effectively use most forms of weaponry, since they are too large for him (he is still the size of a wolf cub). They will actually reduce his attack power.
  • Sir Mervyn / Melvin (Legendary Hero) (メルビン 〔伝説の英雄〕): He is an ancient Legendary Hero, in the service of the Almighty. During the battle between the Almighty and Orgodemir, he was turned to stone by the Almighty, for safekeeping. Several hundred years later, the statue was named the Sizzling Stone by Pike. He joins the party after being revived by the hero, in order to gain vengeance against the Orgodemir. After the defeat of Orgodemir in the past, and the apparent revival of the Almighty, he works at the Cathedral of Light, but is banished by "the Almighty", and flees to the Beacon, where he seeks the hero's help to unseal Estard and the Spirits. He is presented as being old-fashioned, although he is open with the hero, and is presented as liking young women. His abilities are well-balanced between HP, MP, and attack power; but his speed is the lowest of the party members. As a Legendary Hero, he gains lightning magic.
  • Aishe / Aira (Roamer dancer) (アイラ 〔ユバールの踊り手〕) : She is a dancer and warrior of the Roamers, a tribe of nomads. (They were called Yubara in the original Japanese.) She joins the party to search for the descendant of the legendary Torban Player. It is implied that she is descended from Lala and Kiefer. She decides to join the Guard of the royal family of Estard, seeing them as the family she always wanted. Her abilities are balanced similarly to the protagonist's; she has high attack power and Defense Power. When she joins the party, she has mastered the Dancer class, and reached level three in the Warrior class. (However, she seems to have forgotten her transfer skills from the Dancer class.)

Major Characters[]

  • The Almighty: At one time, he fought the Devil, Orgodemir, but according to legend, he was defeated in the struggle. In fact, he is in the hidden dungeon, reached by a Mysterious Tablet; if he is defeated in at most 20 turns, he will give the party a reward. Also, he will move to the Haven. During the battle, he says that he built the temple to ensure the future survival of humans.
  • Spirits: The four spirits which serve the Almighty. The Fire Spirit lives in Burnmont, the Earth Spirit sleeps in the desert of Al-Balad, the Wind Spirit is in the Sanctum of the Cirrus, and the Water Spirit is in the Rainbow Bay. These places are sealed by Orgodemir, and the spirits help to unseal them, and reveal Orgodemir's true form. Their power can be summoned with the Amulet. All four spirits appear at once in the second hidden dungeon.
  • Sharkeye (シャークアイ): Leader of the pirates of the Sea Dragon. Like the hero, he has part of the crest of the Water Spirit inscribed on his arm. At one time, he was the commander of the navy of the Kingdom of Buccanham. Later, after a great battle with Orgodemir's forces, his ship was sealed in a cave south of the desert. But when the desert is unsealed in the present, he is freed and escapes. When he meets the hero, the seal on his arm moves to the hero's arm, completing the image there.
  • Anaïs (アニエス): Wife of Sharkeye. It is rumored that she is the princess of some far-off country, whose name is unknown. She was with her husband on his pirate ship, but stayed at Buccanham Palace at the request of its king. When the heroes visit Buccanham, she is ill, and is sleeping in her bedroom. She is pregnant, and the King of the Sea states that her child will be important in the future. Therefore, the King grants her the Power of the Mermaid, allowing her to live until her child is needed.
  • King of the Sea (海底王): The King who lives on the ocean floor. He has mystical powers. In the past, he has the form of an old man, while in the present he wears a shell hat from Estard, and lives on the seabed to the south of that island.

  • Mayor Mayde (アミット): Father of Maribel. He is the mayor (head fisherman in the original Japanese) of Pilchard Bay, and lives in a large mansion. When he contracts an illness, Maribel leaves the party to help him.
