Lamia (Final Fantasy IX)

The Lamia is an enemy from Final Fantasy IX, commonly found in the Bell Room in Gizamaluke's Grotto. Unlike its counterparts from the other games, this one has a grotesque appearance. It is an exceptionally tough random encounter because it can power up its attacks and confuse the party.
==Stats==
== Battle ==
The Lamia's Entice ability will confuse male members of the party (also affecting Quina) unless Clear Headed is equipped. Lamia is quick and will usually take a turn immediately after any of the party members acts. It repeatedly casts Might on itself to boost its physical attack power. It will sometimes use Cure on itself after being attacked. Quina can eat a Lamia to learn LV3 Def-less.
=== Strategy ===
It is best to take the Lamia out quickly before it casts Might on itself too many times, as even high-level characters can succumb to a single blow. Equipping Zidane with the Butterfly Sword and using Soul Blade on the Lamia will prevent it from using Cure and Might (but not Entice).
