The Fringes
EN Udumbara
Spawn Theory
Kill 100 Leshy East End and 100 Diakka Dimwold
Lore
Ah, the elusive Udumbara. Patient. Silent. Deadly. This massive man-eating plant is rarely seen until it bursts forth from the ground to feed.
So difficult is this mark to find, it takes its name from a tree of legend whose flowers are said to bloom only once every three thousand years.
One theory has it that Udumbara senses the silent screams of nearby vegetation, their unheard cacophony
The Peaks
EN Bone Crawler
Spawn Theory
Use the Chocobo Porter in The Peaks. Bone Crawler can spawn halfway through the ride.
Lore
When trade with the East was at its most prosperous, they used to hire mercenary companies to clear the routes o' monstrous predators. Seems the buggers were too good at their job, though, an' managed to wipe out an entire species.
A sort o' huge, fang-mouthed scalekin, it was, an' it's been thought extinct for decades...until one o' them attacked a merchant caravan just the other day.
The bloke what lent the caravan his chocobos tells me that there weren't naught left of his birds-no feathers, no tackle, no skulls. Ever since, they've taken to callin' this thing the “Bone Crawler.”
The Lochs
EN Salt and Light
Spawn Theory
Discard 50 items. A stack of 50 items will count as 1 item. Multiple people can contribute to the total of discarded items.
Lore
According to the records of the Resistance, a clan of goblins once came barreling in from the west, and smashed through an imperial checkpoint.
The Empires forces soon gave chase, and cornered the beastmen on the shores of Loch Seld. The goblins were slain to a man, but not before one of them hurled a strange device into the loch's waters.
The surface of the loch was seen to bulge upwards, forming into a watery giant which proceeded to decimate the Garlean soldiers before suddenly draining away once more. Honestly, folks should be more careful with what they choose to throw away...

The Ruby Sea
EN Okina
Spawn Theory
Kill 100 Yumemi and 100 Naked Yumemi.
Lore
Have you heard tales of Okina, the giant striped ray? Drunken pirates insist that the wavekin devours whales, but this is an embellishment-otherwise known as an outright lie. Okina eats only krill.
The tiny shrimp gather to feed on the husks of shellfish, and when the seas teem with their numbers, that is when Okina appears, riding on the spring tide.
But though the great ray does not prey on whales, its cavernous mouth can swallow careless hunters whole. Be sure not to slip in the ebb and flow of the shallows.
Yanxia
EN Gamma
Spawn Theory
Summon the Toy Alexander minion and walk/fly over spawn points during night-morning (17:00 - 08:00 Eorzea Time). Assuming its random timer is up, Gamma will spawn on top of you at its chosen location.
Lore
Ah, this one. The information on a rogue imperial prototype warmachina did not come cheaply or easily.
Ahem. “Codename: Gamma. This model was designed to be an automated improvement over the piloted armored weapon, allowing it to operate without loss of function in near darkness. The results were unsatisfactory and the project was supposedly scrapped.
During testing, Gamma was commanded to attack a compact craft capable of considerable maneuverability. Now, whenever it detects said craft, the weapon engages in indiscriminate hostility.” Sounds positively cheery, doesn't it.

EN Orghana
Spawn Theory
Assuming its random timer is up, Orghana will spawn if any person that was in the zone flys over it's spawn points after the fate "Not Just A Tribute" FATE at x12,y14 gets completed with a silver rating or higher, regardless if it was a fail.
Lore
The Xaela of these lands have a custom wherein we carve the histories of our greatest heroes and warriors into stone reliefs.
The chuluu of the hero Orghana is an embodiment of his life's journey. So much so, that the stone itself wanders the steppes, seeking to emulate the story carved upon its surface.
Orghana, a son of the Himaa, was said to have had a twin sister. And one of our most famous tales concerns the vengeance he wrought upon his sibling's killers...
