Zilant

Zilant is a family of enemies in Final Fantasy XI. Zilant are a very rare type of dark-aligned dragon, none of which can be verified as an independent life form native to our dimension. Although not possessed of any body parts worth taking away, zilant will rarely bestow their killers with some powerful and sought after items, best known of which are the Zilant Ring and the rare body armor Fulad-zereh.
