Yes there is such a game called Dragon Quest 4. The full name is Dragon Quest 4: Chapters of the Chosen, but in the EU, since it was the first DQ game released, they dropped the '4'. The game plays as a series of chapters, each featuring different characters. It's only in the later ones you meet the game's true hero, and the characters become his companions on his quest.
