Introduced as a monster found around the end of the game in places such as [[Talon Tower]] and [[Nadiria]]. They have a large amount of {{HP}}, can deliver strong physical attacks, and cast [[Kaswoosh]] on the player's {{Party 5}}. The amount of [[gold]] they drop is usually worth the risk of fighting them, though.

Appearing as a normal enemy properly in the main series for the first time since ''V'', they are encountered near the end of the main game and can be summoned by [[Jasper]] in his Unbound form as a mockery of his [[Hendrik|former friend]]. Later in the postgame, they are brainwashed by the [[Calasmos|Dark One]] after his revival, but otherwise act the same as in the main game.
