Abaddon
Abaddon (Final Fantasy VIII) (Abaddon Crystal Chronicles) Abaddon (Final Fantasy IX)

Abaddon is an unusual looking enemy that can be found in Final Fantasy. Its designs changes completely from every series.

[edit] Adamantoise

Adamant
Adamantoise (Final Fantasy XI - PC)
Adamantaimai (Final Fantasy VII - PC)

Adamantoise (Final Fantasy VIII - PS)

The Adamantoise resembles a large tortoise. Its shell provides it with a strong defense to its weak body. Its name is a combination of the words adamant, referring to its shell, and the tortoise it resembles. Traditionally the Adamantoise is a mid to high level solitary monster appearing on beaches or in the final dungeon. An exception to this rule is Final Fantasy III where it was the first boss you encountered.

Adamantoise has appeared in the following games:


[edit] Ahriman

Ahriman
Ahriman (Final Fantasy XI - PC)
Fatal Eye (Final Fantasy IV - SNES)

Allemagne (Final Fantasy VII - PC)

The Ahriman traditionally appears as a floating creature with a predominant single eye. The appearance of the monster leads to alternative names such as Evil Eye or FloatEye. The word Ahriman is an alternative form of Angra Mainyu, which does in fact appear in Final Fantasy X-2 as a superboss in its demonic form, the personified principle of darkness. Angra Mainyu was the evil spirit in the dualistic strain of Zoroastrianism. Angra Mainyu is the adversary of Ahura Mazda, the god of good.
Ahriman's first appearance in the Final Fantasy series was as one of the final bosses in Final Fantasy III for the Nintendo where defeating it would help to weaken the final boss. In later games it became more of a standard enemy attacking with its Gaze that would paralyse, blind, or even instantly kill its target depending on its type.
In Final Fantasy IV the Plague was an alternate form of Ahriman that guarded a sacred treasure in the final dungeon and cast a death sentence on your party at the start of the battle, giving you only ten turns to defeat it.
In Final Fantasy X a special monster could be created called One-eye through the Monster Arena, this variation of Ahriman is a special challenge and extremely tough.
In Final Fantasy: Dawn of Souls, the remake of Final Fantasy for the Game Boy Advance, the Ahriman from Final Fantasy III was selected with the other four Black Crystal Guards as optional bosses in one of the new special dungeons added to the game.

Ahriman has appeared in the following games:


[edit] Antica

The Antica are one of the races of Beastmen in Final Fantasy XI. They have transformed the former Galkan capital of Altepa into the central location of their empire, which spreads across the islands of Kuzotz in Vana'diel. Their militaristic society is built upon advanced personnel management abilities. Upon birth, all individuals are given a number, and a job for which they spend the rest of their lives training. Apart from the information needed to perform their duties, the individual is not allowed any other knowledge. An Antica is only allowed to transfer positions to become a gladiator (used for population control).

The Antica have no concept of personal belongings. All equipment is provided by the Empire, and food rations are based solely on the duties performed by the individual. However, due to their lack of emotion, there is not a single Antica who feels discontent towards this system. This can also be seen on the battlefield. No matter the situation, the lack of fluctuation in morale is the Antica's greatest strength.

Another strength lies in the sheer number of Antica soldiers. In addition to their active legions, an enormous surplus of soldiers lies in stasis within the Antica's stronghold. When revived, the size of their army can increase a hundredfold. However, due to their lack of naval technology, only a few of their troops were able to participate in the Great War campaigns carried out on Quon; their presence had little effect on the outcome of the battles. It is widely believed that had the full Antican army participated in the battles on Quon, the allied forces surely would have been defeated.

While the Antica communicate by fricative sounds made within their necks, they are unable to release loud war cries like the other beastmen. This results in an eerie silence on the battlefield that can send chills down the spine of even the bravest warrior.

[edit] Antlion

Antlion
Antlion (Final Fantasy XI - PC)

The Antlion bears an oversized arthropodic appearance. Its appearance is clearly based on the Myrmeleontidae of the same name, but its name is in fact a variant of a legendary creature better known as Myrmecoleo. The antlion adult usually reaches lengths of 4 cm, while their Final Fantasy counterparts are much larger.
Antlions in Final Fantasy will usually attack from underground using Earth or Wind attacks. Because of this fact it is most likely that they'll be found in deserts popping out of sand traps.
In Final Fantasy IV and IX the Antlion is known to be a tame and placid beast, however in both instances it breaks character and attacks your party, indicating something bad is happening to the world. Both times it first attacks a character of royal blood, Edward in FFIV and Puck in FFIX. This may suggest that the Antlion's aggression is a specialised response to the presence of royal blood rather than an abnormal behaviour initiated by the change in the world (after all, the Cleyrans in FFIX have no royalty, and as such would have no opportunity to observe this phenomenon. This would result in their presumption that the Antlion is consisently docile). In Final Fantasy XII, Antlion is one of the marks that the player can hunt for the bounty on its head.

Antlion has appeared in the following games:


[edit] Ark

Ark Eidolon (Final Fantasy IX - PS)
Ark (Final Fantasy IX - PS)

The Ark is a hybrid of an airship and a dragon that has the ability to transform into a mecha-like form. It is first encountered in Final Fantasy IX as a boss battle while the party is briefly working for Kuja, but can later be acquired as an eidolon by having Hades, The Legendary Synthesist, fuse two pumice pieces together or by defeating Ozma found in the Chocobo Air Garden. As a summon, it is extremely powerful.

[edit] Bandersnatch

Bandersnatch is a wolf, lion and bear hybrid monster encountered in the worlds of Final Fantasy. The creature first appeared in the poem Jabberwocky by Lewis Carroll but it was officially described in The Hunting of the Snark. The Final Fantasy description is somewhat different from Lewis Carroll's interpretation. It appears in the games below:

[edit] Basilisk

The Basilisk is based on a creature of ancient Greek and European mythology that was said to be able to kill with a simple glance. It was portrayed as a giant lizard, snake, or sometimes cockerel similar to the Cockatrice.
In Final Fantasy, the Basilisk traditionally appears as a horned lizard with large chameleon-like eyes. However it sometimes appears more serpentlike, particularly in later titles. The Basilisk and its breatheren usually have the power to petrify characters using their stare or their breath.
In Final Fantasy X a special monster could be created called Jormungand through the Monster Arena, this variation of Basilisk is a special challenge and extremely tough.
In Final Fantasy X-2 a variation of the Basilisk called Chac was one of the super bosses faced in the Via Infinito in Bevelle.

[edit] Behemoth

Behemoth
Behemoth (Final Fantasy XI - PC)
Behemoth (Final Fantasy VII - PC)

Behemoth (Final Fantasy X/X-2 - PS2)

The Behemoth is named after a Biblical creature from the Book of Job. In many of the Final Fantasy games, the Behemoth is a large, purple beast that uses its horns and magic to kill its opponents. It first appeared as a boss in Final Fantasy II's Coliseum, and has been a series staple ever since. Behemoths are estimated to be ten to twelve feet tall when standing. When attacking, it normally dashes on all fours, but when returning to an idle state it will usually stand upright.

The Behemoth is typically a high-level monster that appears in the final areas of games. In battle, it rarely attacks of its own volition, but will counterattack any hit with a powerful horn rush and thunder magic attacks. A more powerful version of the Behemoth named King Behemoth is a major enemy in the latter stages of many Final Fantasy games, especially if Behemoth was seen mid-way through the game. King Behemoths enjoy large stat advantages over normal Behemoths, and are often characterized by their large size (25ft when standing) and grey color. In Final Fantasy X, it uses devastating Meteor magic as a final counterstroke when killed.

The Behemoths in Final Fantasy IV counterattack magic with a non-elemental spell called Storm which hits all party members and has the same effect (lowering HP to the single digits) and a similar animation to the black magic spell Weak.

In Final Fantasy Mystic Quest, rather than being one of the most powerful monsters, Behemoth is the oppnent in the game's introductory battle. In Final Fantasy VI, the Intangir is an invisible variation of Behemoth that cannot be attacked physically. When attacked with magic it uses a powerful counterattack before casting Sleep on itself again. (Yes, Sleep. Supposedly, it's a creature of dreams, hence the name.) Also in the same game, Sr. Behemoth is a boss in the World of Ruin that will continue to fight in zombie form after its defeat. In Final Fantasy VIII the boss Catoplebas is a variation of Behemoth who helps seal your parties powers in Ultimecia Castle. It will counter attack with lightning-based attacks and Meteor much like other Behemoths. In Final Fantasy X a special monster could be created called Catoblepas through the Monster Arena. This variation of Behemoth is a special challenge and extremely tough. In Final Fantasy II: Soul of Rebirth, a secondary story for Final Fantasy II Dawn of Souls on the Game Boy Advance, A palette swap of Behemoth is used for the Ultima Weapon which guards the Ultima Scroll. In Final Fantasy XII Behemoths are a class of monsters. generally similar previous incarnations except that they are bipedal and more humanoid looking.

[edit] Biblos/Byblos

Biblos (Final Fantasy V - SNES)

The Biblos is a large demonic-looking monster with two protruding horns on its head. It first appeared in the Ancient Library in Final Fantasy V where it had been sealed in a book for centuries. A palette swap of Biblos is later introduced in the N-Zone taking the form of Apprehender, one of X-Death's minions. In Final Fantasy Tactics Byblos appears as a secret character who will join the player's party if it can survive the battle at "END". The Apanda demons also use the same palette as Byblos.

Biblos has appeared in the following games:

[edit] Blood Bat

Bats in Final Fantasy can usually be found in caves and attack with a variety of HP draining skills and spells, sometimes even able to drain it with normal attacks. Even with their high agility and draining abilities however, they are still a weak low-class enemy. In Final Fantasy IV all three types of bat would be found in large numbers, and often alongside a vampire.

Blood Bat has appeared in the following games:


[edit] Bomb

Bomb (Final Fantasy VII - PC) Bomb (Final Fantasy X/X-2 - PS2) Bomb (Final Fantasy Tactics - PS) Bomb (Final Fantasy Tactics Advance - GBA) Bomb (Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles - GCN)

The Bomb and its counterparts the Grenade and Balloon are relative to the weaponry of the same names, bomb, grenade, etc. Their trademark skill is a self-destruct attack that can potentially cause extraordinary damage. After the Final Fantasy series moved to a 3D engine, the Bomb picked up a new habit of growing and becoming more powerful each time it is attacked until finally exploding, making it even deadlier than before.

In Final Fantasy IV, Bomb was a secret summon for Rydia. There also exists a dummied sprite nicknamed K. Higuchi after one of the game's battle programmers, Katsuhisa Higuchi, identical in appearance to the regular Bomb seen in the hidden Developers Room as an Easter Egg. This enemy speaks to the party rather than attacking. In Final Fantasy IV the Mom Bomb (in the English version) is a boss that consists of several bombs fused together. In Final Fantasy V, Byurobolos is a Bomb-like enemy that appears as a boss. In this battle, the Byurobolos fully revive each other when defeated and eventually all explode at the same time. In Final Fantasy X a special monster could be created called Bomb King through the Monster Arena. This variation of Bomb is especially tough. In Final Fantasy XII, Bombs react to magic instead of physical attacks, the Bomb King also returns as a boss. A Bomb is also the icon used for the berserk status in Final Fantasy XII. The first time the origin of the Bomb is given is also in FFXII, where it is described as a creature created specifically to fight wizards. In the other games it is assumed to be just another strain of monster.

Bomb has appeared in the following games:

The Cactuar is well known for its characteristic "1,000 Needles" attack, able to bypass an opponents defense stat and always deal 1,000 points of damage. Cactuars are usually worth a substantial amount of currency or experience points, but their high evasion stat and tendency to flee make them difficult prey.

In Final Fantasy VII's "Corel prison" desert, there is a rare creature called the Cactuer that bears the same appearance as a regular Cactuar. In Final Fantasy VIII, the Jumbo Cactuar is an optional boss many times larger than a normal Cactuar, characterized by its small moustache. Its "10,000 Needles" attack bypasses defenses, always causing 10,000 points of damage. If defeated, the player is awarded with the Cactuar Guardian Force. In Final Fantasy IX, Cactuar attack from underground and only sometimes emerge to use more deadly attacks. In Final Fantasy X there are many minigames involving Cactuars. A doll of Lulu's is a Cactuar, and a powerful monster called Cactuar King can be created through the Monster Arena. Final Fantasy X-2's Cactuar Nation is the first canonical proof of an organized Cactuar civilization. A Jumbo Cactuar also appears in one of the game's quests.

Cerberus has appeared in the following games:

Other appearances:

Possibly the most popular and recognizable symbol of the Final Fantasy series, a Chocobo (pronounced choh-koh-bo) is a large emu-like ratite of fictional origin first featured in Final Fantasy II. Chocobos have starred in several spin-offs, including Chocobo's Mysterious Dungeon , Chocobo Racing, and the Legend of Mana manga by Shiro Amano.

Cockatrice
Cockatrice (Final Fantasy XI - PC)
Cockatolis (Final Fantasy VII - PC)

The Cockatrice is a legendary creature about the size and shape of a dragon or wyvern, but in appearance resembling a giant rooster, with some lizard-like characteristics. It was supposed to be born from an egg laid by a Cock and incubated by a toad or serpent. A female Cockatrice is, by analogy, sometimes termed a Chickatrice. Its reputed magical abilities include turning people to stone by either looking at them, touching them, or sometimes breathing on them, like a dragon breathing fire. The Cockatrice is very similar (if not identical) to another legendary creature, the Basilisk. Its name may come from a folk etymology for crocodile.
In early Final Fantasy games the Cockatrice looks far more like an eagle than it does a cockerel and attacks from above using petrifying attacks, however in later games it looks far more like the Cockatrice of myth.
A fan-translation of Final Fantasy III gives a Basilisk sprite the name Cocktrice, this may have been because of the similarities between the two beasts. There is, however, a bird-like monster called DiveEagle which fans widely accept as the game's true Cockatrice.
In Final Fantasy IX and Final Fantasy X there is no true Cockatrice, however fans have chosen to see the Trick Sparrow and Condor family of their respective games as their version of the beast. Also in Final Fantasy X a special monster could be created called Pteryx through the Monster Arena, this variation of Condor is a special challenge and extremely tough.

In Final Fantasy XII, Cockatrice are a species of both wild and domesticated birds with the peculiar habit of moving around by rolling their fat bodies up into a ball.

[edit] Death Claw

The Death Claw is one of Final Fantasy's more original creations, it is a demonic beast with four to eight hook-like claws protruding from its body. As its name implies it is not without the ability to kill, or heavily incapacitate the target in a single blow.

In Final Fantasy V the most powerful enemy in the game, Omega, is a large mecha from beyond the stars. It is so powerful the ancient people sealed it in the N-Zone never to be seen again...
In Final Fantasy VI there are two such weapons, the Lethal Weapon which is a large Magitech tank and the Guardian which is The Empire's most powerful Magitech weapon.

He has a reputation for being highly skilled in the use of both sword and whip; without slowing he is able to pluck out a mortal's eyes who would dare to look at him. The Dullahan is an omen of death, and when he stops riding, a mortal dies.
In Final Fantasy Mystic Quest Dullahan is an underling of Pazuzu, and is the cause of the great wind from atop Mt. Gale.
In Final Fantasy IX the monster Armodullahan is part of a trap. If it is able to catch up with your party it will attack but cannot be killed, rather just slowed down giving you a chance to escape.
In another Square-Enix game Vagrant Story, there are four variations of Dullahan, all fought as part of Boss battles.

Dullahan has appeared in the following games:
