B-Ranks A Realm Reborn
La Noscea
Middle La Noscea
Skogs Fru
Skogs Fru
100
5,000Lore
The ravening queen of ladybugs, Skogs Fru's natural voracity for pests has taken an unnatural turn.
Not content with emptying the fields of pollen carriers and soil tillers, the adamantine-shelled Skogs Fru has adopted a new diet consisting of chocobos and their riders.
Lower La Noscea
Barbastelle
Barbastelle
Lore
The vampire bat Barbastelle has many epithets, the only remotely flattering one being 'the laird of Blind Iron Mines.'
While cattle mutilations are hardly any one creature's domain, experts are united in the view that the infamous mass draining of the herd at the Red Rooster Stead-the so-called 'Big Gulp'-is the work of Barbastelle.
Western La Noscea
Dark Helmet
Dark Helmet
Lore
A hermit crab of less eremitic bent, Dark Helmet began its love affair with armor when it traded in its snail shell for some nameless Lalafell's helm.
Its salvaging ways abandoned on the sands alongside outgrown and rusted headgear, Dark Helmet lives to acquire larger and finer heaumes-often still occupied by their former owners' grey matter.
Eastern La Noscea
Bloody Mary
Bloody Mary
Lore
Bloody Mary is oft cited as the example of an unstoppable force-Qiqirn gluttony-meeting an immovable object-maternal love. Such characterization would not pass muster beyond the confines of a winesink, however, and is known to provoke dissent even in those establishments.
While Bloody Mary is indeed an apkallu whose eggs suffered Qiqirn predation, nesting hens as a rule do not spear a failed egg thief a score and a half times with their beaks, then proceed to bathe in their victim's blood.
Upper La Noscea
Myradrosh
Myradrosh
Lore
The nectar-eaters of Eorzea are partial to blooms of different hues. Red flowers such as Oschon roselles and raincatchers are the preferred feed of colibri.
Being one such bird, Myradrosh became so fixated on that hue that it now sups from the reddest flower of them all-the still-warm flesh of other birds, beasts, and men.
Outer La Noscea
Vuokho
Vuokho
Lore
A bird feral is a deadly thing, and none more so than the condor Vuokho. Witnesses place him at the Nym Massacre, which consigned some of the finest naturalists of the day to a mean and early grave.
What was not consumed on the spot, the murderous bird seized whole and took to its aery, even as the staunchest among the Maelstrom looked on helplessly, their eyes leaking at the horror.
Black Shroud
Central Shroud
White Joker
White Joker
Lore
White Joker. So called because of many innocents fatally charmed by this squirrel's distinct white coat.
Thanks to predation by other rodents, only the fittest and most vicious of squirrels survive to adulthood.
North Shroud
Phecda
Phecda
Lore
A bear of unusual size from the distant heights of Abalathia's Spine, Phecda's southward migration has not been a happy one for the Black Shroud.
Its uncouth appetite has emptied whole areas of the forest of edibles and game, and no hunter has returned with evidence of a cull or returned at all. Phecda may be distinguished from its more peaceable cousins by the constant slick of blood upon its claws.
East Shroud
Stinging Sophie
Stinging Sophie
Lore
Stinging Sophie. Fattened on the honeybees of Fullflower Comb, this giant hornet inspires both disgust and complacency.
Contrary to what its excess of embonpoint suggests, this grotesquerie is agile enough to evade its would be slayers, and instead give them a deadly stitch with its needle-sharp stinger.
South Shroud
Monarch Ogrefly
Monarch Ogrefly
Lore
Monarch Ogrefly, the dread vilekin of the Lost City of Amdapor. The barrier that seals in its infestations is considered sound...
...yet even the Gods' Quiver could not stop the monstrous Ogreflies from escaping with their deadly taint of mold and burrs.
Thanalan
Central Thanalan
Ovjang
Ovjang
Lore
Central Thanbalkn Ovjang. A mammet of some antiquity, last in possession of a wealthy collector who suffered from a particularly virulent case of buyer's remorse.
He ordered the mammet disassembled and sold off for parts. However, once under the chisel, the mammet came to and attacked the smith, wounding her badly before making its escape.
Western Thanalan
Sewer Syrup
Sewer Syrup
Lore
Born in the full foulness of the effluent passed by Amajina & Sons' Copperbell Mines, the voidsent Sewer Syrup was so named by the less imaginative among even the fume-addled unfortunates that work the recently expanded mine.
Containment attempts by the Stone Torches were foiled by the voidsent's acrid stink. So powerful was the stench that it laid low many of the militiamen, and others still weep blood-tinged tears.
Eastern Thanalan
Gatling
Gatling
Lore
Gatling. A hedgemole of exceptionally bad temper who makes free with the lichyard of the Church of Saint Adama Landama.
He has been thus dubbed for taking up residence in the tomb of Gatling the Alchemical Smith. If the creature has a true name, it remains unknown and of no great interest to local folk.
Southern Thanalan
Albin the Ashen
Albin the Ashen
Lore
When the Hyuran tribe came to Thanalan some eight hundred years ago, Albin the Ashen was at the head of one of the columns.
Then-native Belah'dians rose against the invaders and prevailed, as history records. Albin was but one of many slain in the abortive conquest, yet his mortal coil still roams the land in search of vengeance.
Northern Thanalan
Flame Sergeant Dalvag
Flame Sergeant Dalvag
Lore
Flame Sergeant Dalvag was among the thousands of defenders who met the Garlean invasion force in northern Thanalan soon after the Calamity. His company was ill placed to hold their position, yet given strict orders not to retreat.
Many fell, and suffered much in the falling. Multiple witnesses attest that Dalvag was the last of the company and fought as a man possessed till the end, the names of the dead tumbling in hoarse barks through cracked lips. Scholars theorize that his mortal remains are animated by a thirst for vengeance alone.
Coerthas
Coerthas Central Highlands
Naul
Naul
Lore
The dragons Naul and Svara are best known for their attack on the Steel Vigil, which left the fortress a smoking ruin. Notable casualties include the third son of House Haillenarte...
Mor Dhona
Mor Dhona
Leech King
Leech King
Lore
Leech King of Silvertear Falls, so dubbed by the Sons of Saint Coinach for its enormous size rather than any perceived system of sovereignty.
Those who make mock of its grossness soon repent, for the Leech King is nimble where a meal of blood is concerned.
