'''Dragon Quest III''' rounds out the original ''[[Dragon Quest]]'' trilogy by casting the player as the son/daughter of the hero Ortega, who... didn't quite finish his grand journey to slay the evil Baramos. So, now that you're [[Dangerous Sixteenth Birthday|sixteen]], everyone expects you to [[Take Up My Sword|pick up where he left off]] and get to villain slaying already! Thankfully, you're not expected to do this ''alone''; the local tavern serves as an excellent adventurer's hub, where you can recruit a number of [[Class and Level System|loyal party members]], including:
 
* [[The Hero|Hero]]: Your main character. A [[Magic Knight]] and all-around fighter with access to powerful attacks and spells. Good thing he ([[Distaff Counterpart|or she]]) is so well-rounded, since class change is impossible for the hero.
Line 16:
DQIII was such an outstanding success in Japan-so much so that people were actually being ''mugged on the street for their copy'', something that just did not happen with video games back then. The insane amount of hype to led to these events wasn't totally unfounded though; While DQII had introduced the concept of multiple-PC parties to most players at the time, it was restrictive to the point that some people complained directly to Enix itself. In response to these out cries, DQIII introduced the job system that would appear in various ''Dragon Quest'' games, allowing you to customize your party to some degree. You could also pick everyone's gender, meaning that if you wanted a team of [[Action Girl|Action Girls]], nothing was stopping you... and female characters got to enjoy a few benefits barred to their male counterparts.

* [[Acquired Situational Narcissism]] - While helping the growing pioneer town, {{spoiler|the Merchant you left there ends up letting the important role they're playing in its growth go to their head and turns it into [[Egopolis]], resulting in a riot and them getting thrown in jail. They get better after thinking things over, and even rejoin your team. [[Can't Catch Up|Though you'll likely not need them]].}}
