* {{spoiler|[[Alas, Poor Villain]]}}: In ''[[Dragon Quest III]]'', {{spoiler|Dragonlord is implied by some to be the child of the Queen Dragon, a GOOD dragon, who actually created the ball of light to help defeat Zoma and restore peace to Alefgard. Not only did she die in giving birth to him, he was likely to have been corrupted by Zoma in some fashion (Zoma did note to Loto that he would have his revenge).}}
** {{spoiler|Somehow, the Dragonlord had a descendant of his own, as seen in ''[[Dragon Quest II]]'', but outside of living alone in a castle, he's perfectly normal, even hoping that one day he and the heroes can be friends. In that sense, it seems only the Dragonlord himself is corrupted. Unfortunately, that does kind of make it hard for his descendant to show himself without scaring people.}}
*** Many years after ''[[Dragon Quest II]]'', in ''[[Dragon Quest Monsters]] Caravan Heart'', {{spoiler|he is resurrected along with Alefgard. Rubiss put a seal on his castle though. Judging by what the dragon guardian of his castle says, it seems the Dragonlord was probably going to be revived free of his corruption. However, due to the efforts of [[The Chessmaster]] / [[Bonus Boss]] and his interference, he ended up RE-corrupted before he could be revived properly, causing him to go on a blind rage on Kiefer's party, due to their involvement with the orbs of Loto. If they didn't kill them, he would have likely gone berserk on the world. The poor guy cannot get a break...}}
** {{spoiler|Again in Caravan Heart, the ghost of the green dragon guarding Lady Lora also counts. Like the dead in early [[Dragon Quest]] games, he could no longer see or hear, but remained faithful to the Dragonlord in his mission to guard Lady Lora. It's rather tragic to see, especially after you are forced to fight him if you talk to him.}}
* [[American Kirby Is Hardcore]]: The [http://dragon-quest.org/wiki/File:Dw1boxart.jpg American box art] depicts the same scene as the Japanese box- the blue-and-red hero, the Green Dragon, and a castle- but with realistically proportioned characters and a broader color palette.
* [[Artifact of Death]]: The Cursed/Death Necklace and the Cursed Belt. Oddly enough, if you don't equip them, shopkeepers pay good money for them. Considering how early you can acquire them, it's reasonable to repeatedly enter the (low-leveled) dungeon to acquire more belts to sell for lots of cash.
