| '''Dangaard''' is a recurring character and boss in the ''[[Mana (series)|Mana]]'' series. It is part of the eight Benevodons, a group of fearsome & powerful creatures who once laid waste to the world. Dangaard rules over the wind element.
| |
|
| |
| ==Background==
| |
| Since time immemorial, Dangaard roamed the land of [[Fa'Diel]] along with its seven other siblings, causing chaos and destruction on their path. When the [[Mana Goddess]] came upon [[Fa'Diel]], she wielded whe [[Mana Sword]] to the horrible beasts and sealed them into their respective [[Mana Stone|Mana stones]]. Then, she transformed into the [[Mana Tree]] deep inside the [[Sanctuary of Mana (Trials of Mana)|Sanctuary]] where the blade laid on her knotted feet. Meanwhile, the benevodons waited in slumber for aeons until Mana power began to wane as the [[Mana Tree]] started to wither.

| | ==General information== |
| The shift in Mana was further accelerated by evil factions around the world longing to wield the Mana Sword's power. An emissary of the Goddess was sent from the Sanctuary to the human world in hope of finding someone suitable to defeat the enemy and restore the world back in shape.
| | ===Physical appearance=== |
| | | ===Personality=== |
| A Chosen one was selected by [[Faerie (character)|Faerie]] to gather the [[Mana Spirits|elementals]] and wielding the fabled blade against the evil forces who sought to release Mana power contained within each stone to open the portal to the [[Sanctuary of Mana (Trials of Mana)|Sanctuary of Mana]]. Aided by their comrades, their ultimately failed to prevent their enemy to use the sword to break the seals on the Mana Stones, ushering a new era of despair. Faerie pleaded the party to defeat each benevodon before they combine into an indestructible chimera and they started venturing all over Fa'Diel to locate them.
| |
| | |
| Dangaard was spotted flying around [[Laurent]] while exploring [[Gustall]]. The party summoned [[Flammie (Trials of Mana)|Flammie]] and fought the gryphon-like Benevodon in the air while atop the Winged Defender. After a long battle, the creature was slain.
| |
| | |
| [[Dangaard's Ring]] can be found where the destroyed Mana stone once laid. It grants the wearer a reduction of wind-elemental attacks dealt by enemies by half.
| |
| | |
| ===''[[Children of Mana]]''===
| |
| [[File:Illusia Isle benevodons CoM screenshot.png|thumb|256px|Illusia Isle fading along with the Benevodons]]
| |
| The recent Mana Surge turned Dangaard into a [[Malevodon]] by combining it with [[Xan Bie]] to create [[Xangar]]. The phoenix was fought atop the [[Mana Tower]] while atempting to rescue [[Tess]], but was eventually defeated, turning the two benevodons into their original states.
| |
| | |
| Some time after the incident, [[Jinn]] asked the protagonist to ask Dangaard about various topics concerning the world. The hero headed back to where they had fought the Malevodon to meet with the spirit of the wind benevodon and has their questions answered.
| |
| | |
| At the end of the game, the eight benevodons joined forces to seal [[Illusia Isle]] from being found in the mortal realm. It is hinted that the island is was becamed of the Sanctuary of Mana in ''Trials of Mana''.
| |
| | |
| An optional quest only accessible by completing the game makes the protagonist warp deep into the [[Cosmic Rift]] to meet with the eight benevodons for the last time. They gift them the ultimate [[Gem]] called [[Mystic Blessing]].
| |
| | |
| ===''[[Heroes of Mana]]''===
| |
| The Mana stone of wind is the second to last one to be found by [[Roget]] and crew during [[Chapter 16 (Heroes of Mana)|Chapter 16: Requiem in the Winds]]. While [[Minerva]] is still being held hostage by [[Olbex]] and his mens, a strong gust of wind blows in her direction, distracting the nevarlan guard. The Laurentian princess is successfully rescued while Jinn, the wind-elemental appears alongside the Mana stone. He is the one who casted the wind and happily joins the group in their attempt to stop the peddan army.
| |
| | |
| Players can later summon Dangaard by building an [[Altar of Wind]] once for each mission. The benevodon deals 450 damage with the added [[Paralysis (status)|paralysis]] effect to enemies in range.
| |
| | |
| ==Enemy intel==
| |
| *''Note 1: The first 7 benevodons can be fought in any order, resulting in varying levels & stats depending on the order they are defeated.''
| |
| *''Note 2: Statistics from ''Trials of Mana'' remake are under '''Normal''' [[Difficulty level|difficulty]].
