Franchise context: The write-up below is from the parent franchise article (anime, book series, or IP) rather than the card game itself. A dedicated CCG profile has not been written yet.
The Hero is the protagonist of Dragon Quest V. He starts the story as a child, the son of Pankraz, who suffers through various tragedies before growing up, getting married, and having children. Unlike previous Dragon Quest protagonists, he is not a Legendary Hero; instead, he is a monster tamer, a mechanic added due to the popularity of the character Healie from Dragon Quest IV. He was created by Yuji Horii and designed by Akira Toriyama.
