Red Soul (Final Fantasy II)

The Red Soul, also known as the Shrieker, is a boss from Final Fantasy II. It guards Egil's Torch in Kashuan Keep. It later appears in several other areas as a random encounter.
One also appears as the boss of the Arcane Labyrinth's Southern Keep if the player has learned fewer than 7 main story Key Terms.
The Red Soul's sprite design completely changes between the original release the Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls release, but was changed back to resemble its original form in the Final Fantasy 20th Anniversary and iOS versions.
==Stats==
== Battle ==
The Red Soul is a powerful magical foe, and can be a challenge. In the first four rounds of the fight it will blast Fire VIII, Blizzard VIII, Thunder VIII, and Scourge VIII. It absorbs every type of offensive magic except non-elemental ones, such as Drain or Osmose. It also has a high resistance to physical attacks. It does not have nearly enough MP to support its high-powered spells, so after the first four rounds, it will revert to using a physical attack that only does minor damage.
=== Strategy ===
Everyone in the party should be equipped with at least Mythril-tier weapons, or they may struggle piercing the Red Soul's high Defense. A Cure spell of a decent level will provide enough healing for the party to withstand its initial onslaught. With the Ancient Sword found in the Snow Cave, there is a chance to place a Curse on the fiend, drastically reducing its attack power and durability.
