All the personality quiz answers are simple yes/no questions that the disembodied voice asks not to think too carefully about. The first question is randomized from one of several different questions, but all lead to one of eight scenarios that act as the final question. We’ll come onto the eight different scenarios in a bit. These personalities aren’t permanent because items and books can change your result if you prefer a different label or your Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake Party Comp.

As for your fellow party members, their personalities are determined during the seed distribution phase of their creation in Patty’s Party Planning Place. You don’t need to worry about what result you get in the quiz to participate in the hunt for the new Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake friendly monsters, as using specific items, key skills, and the Monster Wrangler class, in general, are what affect your ability to catch them.

Now that all that’s been outlined, let’s go back to your own personality test. To simplify this guide, the table below shows all the questions in roughly the order you’ll see in-game. We highly recommend you use your browser’s search functionality (Ctrl-F on PC, Command-F on Mac) and type in the question you want the branching answers. It should be relatively straightforward to keep track, though one question gets asked multiple times, so pay attention to how many times you’ve been asked it. When you reach a scenario, it will be in bold.

Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake scenarios

As mentioned above, there are eight different scenarios that you could face as part of your final question. You’ll unlock one of several different personalities depending on specific actions taken during this time. Here are the details regarding all eight Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake personality quiz scenarios:

Scenario: Village

Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake personality quiz scenarios: the hero stands in a quaint village full of trees and a pond. An old man and his grandson are standing next to the pond.

You begin this scenario in a village where you see an old man walking with his grandson. He tells you he’s forgotten his purse and asks you to retrieve it. You can explore the rest of the town, but there’s nothing really of note except for the house north of the old man. If you take the purse from the dresser, you’ll be caught and accused of stealing before being taken to a nearby priest for questioning.

  • Show-Off – check the dresser to take the purse, then admit you stole it.
  • Slippery Devil – check the dresser to take the purse, deny you stole it, and say the old man asked you to get it.
  • Shrinking Violet – leave the town without getting the purse.

Scenario: Tower

This simple scenario places you at the top of a tower. The people here say that those willing to test their courage should leap from the roof.

  • Socialite – leave the tower without jumping.
  • Daydreamer – jump from the tower.

Scenario: Monster

Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake personality quiz scenarios: A bird-like monster is standing inside a well.

This scenario begins with you transformed into a bird-like demon. To the north is a ladder leading out of the watery cave. As it turns out, this is a town’s well and your appearance causes the majority of the townsfolk to flee. One will stand against you, and you have the option to “Speak” to him.

However, speaking to him will cause him to burst into flames like everyone else in town. The criteria for getting specific personalities is to kill a certain number of people before leaving town. Most are in plain view, though one is actively hiding from you.

  • Paragon – kill two or fewer people before leaving town.
  • Wimp – kill three or more people, including at least one woman or old person, but no children.
  • Egghead – kill three or more people, including children.
  • Spoilt Brat – kill three or more people, but spare the women, old people, and children.
  • Klutz – kill everyone but the man that’s hiding near the inn.

Scenario: Desert

At the start of this scenario, you’ll appear in the middle of a desert. Heading north, you’ll find two men, one of which has collapsed. The fallen man tells his companion, Dickie, to take the last of the water and head to the north, leaving him behind. However, Dickie is unsure of what to do as the hero approaches. Your answers to his questions will lead to your personality.

  • Thug – tell Dickie to follow his companion’s instructions to take the canteen and head north.
  • Daredevil – tell Dickie to leave the canteen with his companion and head north without him.
  • Idealist – tell Dickie to carry his companion to the north.

Scenario: Forest

You have to wonder what mysteries lie beyond that fence. Image via Square Enix

This scenario will either take you a short time or ask you to endure an almost literal Sisyphean task, depending on the outcome you want. You awaken in a forest to find an old man who tells you that the exit is to the west. However, he also asks that if you find a boulder, you push it back to him. The number of times you push the boulder determines your personality.

  • Lazybones – push back zero or one boulder.
  • Show-Off – push back the boulder two to five times in total.
  • Plugger – push back the boulder six to 19 times in total.
  • Drudge – push the boulder 20 to 39 times in total.
  • Tough Cookie – push the boulder 40 or more times in total.

Scenario: Castle

Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake personality quiz: the hero is standing in a corridor near some stairs. The next room has a queen standing in the middle of it.

You start inside a castle. Walking to the left, you’ll overhear the queen plotting to keep some gems to herself and say that the neighboring kingdom doesn’t need them. Heading downstairs, you’ll see the king instruct his soldiers that an invasion is imminent and to initiate a surprise counterattack.

The general questions the intelligence provided by the queen, only for the king to say there’s no reason to doubt her. There is a minister to the right who is wracked with indecision, and your answers to his questions matter.

  • Charmer – talk to the minister and answer him ‘Yes’ twice in a row. (Masculine characters only)
  • Vamp – talk to the minister and answer him ‘Yes’ twice in a row. (Feminine characters only)
  • Wit – talk to the minister and answer his questions either ‘Yes’, ‘No’, ‘Yes’, or ‘No’, ‘Yes’, ‘Yes’.
  • Clown – talk to the minister and either answer his questions ‘Yes’, ‘No’, ‘No’, Yes’, or ‘No’, ‘Yes’, ‘No’, ‘Yes’.
  • Good Egg – talk to the minister and answer him ‘No’ twice in a row.
  • Happy Camper – leave the castle without talking to the minister.

Scenario: Cave

Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake personality quiz: the hero stands alone in a cave holding only a lantern.

You begin this scenario stranded in the middle of a dungeon. The only hint you have to go on are signs on your journey. As you reach the end, you’ll find a few distractions. Your personality is determined by your ability to follow instructions from the signs and what you do when you reach certain points in the cave.

  • Narcissist – ignore the first sign’s directions.
  • Sore Loser – ignore the directions from the second, third, or fourth signs.
  • Scatterbrain – follow the fourth sign, but go for the treasure on your right.
  • Straight Arrow – follow the fourth sign, but push the boulder off the woman on your left.
  • Mule – follow the fourth sign and leave the cave to the north.

Scenario: Dancer

This scenario begins with you in the audience of a theater where a dancer is performing on stage. The patron on the left claims to have asked her to marry him but is nervous that she may not wish to do so anymore. He asks you to ask her. If you do so, you’ll find that his suspicions are correct, and like a coward, she asks you to reject him for her. Your actions in this scenario determine your personality.

  • Free Spirit – leave the theater at any point before giving the man the dancer’s answer.
  • Crybaby – lie to the man that the dancer still wishes to marry him.
  • Lone Wolf – tell the man the truth that the dancer no longer wishes to marry him.
  • Lout – choose to Play Dumb when asked by the man about the dancer’s answer.
