Adamant :
* Adamantoise (Final Fantasy XI - PC)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. The Adamantoise and other turtle-like monsters are often related to Adamantite, the strongest metal in the game which is used to make the strongest weapons in the game, such as Final Fantasy I's Excalibur. Traditionally the Adamantoise is a mid to high level solitary monster appearing on beaches or in the final dungeon.

## Ahriman

Ahriman :
* Ahriman (Final Fantasy XI - PC)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 name of Angra Mainyu, which was used Final Fantasy X-2 as a superboss. 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. It guarded the Dark Crystal of Earth, and 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.

## 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.

## Antlion

The Antlion bears an oversized arthropodic appearance. Its appearance is clearly based on the larval 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 usually live in deserts. Therefore it is very likely that the antlion will use earth or wind- based attacks.
Unlike other games in the series, Antlion appeared in Final Fantasy VI as a special attack rather than an enemy. It was featured in the dance ability Desert Aria, used by the character Mog. If Antlion was used in the dance, it would inflict instant death to one enemy.
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. It commonly attacks royalty, attacking Edward in FFIV, Krile in Final Fantasy V and Puck in FFIX (In Final Fantasy II, the player first encounters antlions on the way to the Arena, with Prince Gordon of Kashuon in the party). 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:
* Final Fantasy II (Origins) as Antlion and Scissorjaws
* Final Fantasy II (Dawn of Souls) as Antlion and Scissorjaws
* Final Fantasy III as Cafjel and Gorgone
* Final Fantasy IV as Antlion (Boss)

* Final Fantasy XII as Mantis-type Insect: Antlion, Antares, Bide Cutter
* Final Fantasy Tactics Advance as Antlion and Jawbreaker
* Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles as Antlion (Boss)

## Ark

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. As a summon, it is extremely powerful.

## 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 usually makes it a hound/wolf-like monster.
It appears in the games below:
* Final Fantasy III (DS) as Bandersnatch
* Final Fantasy V as Bandersnatch
* Final Fantasy VI as Bandersnatch
* Final Fantasy VII as Bandersnatch
* Final Fantasy IX as Bandersnatch

## 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 originally portrayed as a giant lizard, sometimes cockerel similar to the Cockatrice. But in recent games, the Basilsik assumed a more serpentine form.
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 breathren usually have the power to petrify characters using their stare or their breath.
In Final Fantasy X a special monster could be created called Jormungard 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.
Basilisk has appeared in the following games:
* Final Fantasy (Original) as Iguana, Agama, and Sauria

## Beastmen

The Beastmen are fictional humanoid races from the massively multiplayer online role-playing game Final Fantasy XI. The beastmen are a group of beastial, intelligent beings that seek to rid the world of Vana'diel of the five humanoid and playable races; the Humes, the Galkas, the Elvaan, the Tarutaru, and the Mithra. They are constantly launching attacks on the Human cities, trying to destroy them all. They call humans Smoothskin-born.
The San d'Orian cathedral teaches that they were created by the god Promathia during the Age of Darkness, and that their sole purpose is to destroy the Five Humanoid Races, created by the Goddess Altana. Here are all of the Beastmen types that have been discovered so far.
* Antica (Ant-like humanoids. Their entire species shares one hive mind.)
* Gigas (Barely intelligent giants.)
* Goblins (Diverse, intelligent beastmen.)
* Kindred (Known as "Demons.")
* Lamiae (A form of organic weapon (also known as a chimera), created by alchemists fusing the parts of multiple organisms which appears to have an upper body of a Hume woman and lower body of a venomous serpent. Divided into Lamiae and Merrows (mermaids).)
* Mamool Ja (Lizard-like humanoids. Divided into Mamool Ja fighters and Mamool Ja mages.)
* Moblins (A tribe of non-nomadic Goblins who created and reside in the mining community of Movalpolos.)
* Orcs (Green-skinned, warlike in comparison to other beastmen.)
* Poroggos (Frogs made humanoid by a Tarutaru.)
* Qiqirn (Rat-like humanoids.)
* Quadav (Turtle-like humanoids. They are without the rage of other beastmen, and fight for reasons of defense.)
* Sahagin (Fish-like humanoids, rumoured to be a variety of Mamool Ja.)
* Tonberries (Small beings possessed by murderous hate and rancor.)
* Trolls (Giant beastmen, similar to Gigas. Divided into Troll cannoneers and Troll hoplites.)
* Yagudo (Bird-like humanoids noted for their religious fervor.)

## Behemoth

Behemoth :
* Behemoth (Final Fantasy XI - PC)Behemoth (Final Fantasy XI - PC)
* Behemoth (Final Fantasy VII - PC)Behemoth (Final Fantasy VII - PC)
* Behemoth (Final Fantasy X/X-2 - PS2)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, ruminant 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. Behemoth often counterattacks with meteorological spells, examples include the counterattack Storm in Final Fantasy IV and Meteor in Final Fantasy V, Final Fantasy VIII and Final Fantasy X.
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. (This may be becaue it is a creature of dreams) 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. Only the Behemoth King bears similarity to the previos games' depictions.
Behemoth has appeared in the following games:
* Final Fantasy II (Origins) as Behemoth (Boss) and King Behemoth (Boss)

Beholder has appeared in the following games:
* Final Fantasy as Eye and Phantom
* Final Fantasy Origins/Dawn of Souls as Evil Eye and Death Eye
* Final Fantasy Mystic Quest as Gather and Beholder

## Byblos

The Byblos 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 30 years, hence his name. A palette swap of Biblos is later introduced in the Cleft Of The Dimensions taking the form of Apanda, one of Exdeath's minions, who had been sealed in the Interdimensional Rift for a thousand years. 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 final floor of the Deep Dungeon in Tactics.

See also: Byblos

## 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:

* Final Fantasy IV as Face Bat, Bloody Bat, and Evil Head

## Bomb

Bomb :
* Bomb (Final Fantasy XI - PC)Bomb (Final Fantasy XI - PC)
* Bomb (Final Fantasy II - NES) Bomb (Final Fantasy III - NES) Bomb (Final Fantasy IV - SNES) Bomb (Final Fantasy V - SNES) Bomb (Final Fantasy VI - SNES) 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; after the party deals enough damage, it explodes and unleashes three gray Bombs and three Bombs against the party. 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. In Final Fantasy X a special monster could be created called Bomb King through the Monster Arena. This variation of Bomb does grow every time hit like others of its kind, but his counterattacks also get stronger. When he gets the fourth strike, he does not explode, but continues to live and casts Ultima as a counterattack. 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 (since it reacts to magic attacks). In the other games it is assumed to be just another strain of monster.
Bomb has appeared in the following games:

## Cactuar

Cactuar :

* Cactuar (Final Fantasy VIII - PS)
* Cactrot (Final Fantasy VI - SNES)
* Cactuar (Final Fantasy VII - PC) |
The Cactuar are a race of creatures that physically resemble cacti. The name Cactuar is actually the accepted western localization of the original Japanese Sabotender. 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 gil 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. Note that it can run away 10% of the time, just like a normal Cactuar! 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. Final Fantasy XI cactuar are quite dangerous to single players, who often have less than 1,000 hit points total. However the 1,000 points of damage is split between any other party members in the area of effect, including pets. In Final Fantasy XII, Cactoids are a low level group of (generally) non-aggressive monsters, young Cactoids are called Cactites.

## Cockatrice

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. Obtaining the key item "Feather of the Flock" allows you to communicate with the cockatrice. Oddly, they all speak in a very heavy cockney British terminology, much like the denizens of Old Archades. It was rumored that some Cockatrices were used in the ancient experiments that created chimeras along with humans (aka humes, probably). Well, the game does count the Cockatrices and Chimeras as the same specie which can be chained, and they look a lot similar...and their faces resemble Humes...

* Final Fantasy (Original) as Coctrice and Perilisk
* Final Fantasy (Origins) as Cockatrice and Pyrolisk

In Final Fantasy VII Death Machines are Shinra-built weapons used to secure various areas. They are not nearly as powerful as their predecessors.

In Final Fantasy IV it guarded the final Dark Crystal and attacked the party as they attempted to leave the crystal chamber, slowly approaching until it was close enough to use Crush on them, which just kills the character.
In Final Fantasy VII it guarded the exit of the Temple of the Ancients. It is famous for its incredibly high magical defense, with only physical attacks, limit breaks and non-elemental magic doing significant damage to it.
In Final Fantasy XII two Demon Walls function as traps to guard the tomb of the Dynast-King Raithwall, whom they were modeled after. Each wall slowly chases the party down a long bridge.
