Main seriesEdit

Dragon Quest III remakesEdit

In the Dragon Quest III remakes, genius is a personality that improves agility and wisdom growth, but reduces resilience and luck growth.

The hero cannot become a genius at the start of the game.

Other party members have a chance to be a genius when recruited as any class except warrior or martial artist, depending on their stat bonuses.

Class / gender	Stat bonuses for genius (chance)
	Wisdom bonus highest, 10+ (³⁄₄)
	Wisdom bonus highest, 10+ (⁴⁄₅) Strength bonus highest, ≤10, wisdom bonus second (¹⁄₃)
	Strength bonus highest, ≤10, wisdom bonus second (¹⁄₃) Wisdom bonus highest, 10+ (¹⁄₃)

An existing character becomes a genius permanently by reading the The Eureka Moment book.
