The Great sabrecat is a recurring monster in the series, and one of the most popular members of the Beast family by far. A combination of characteristics from every major feline family, the species stands out as being easily tamable compared to most other monsters and real-world cats. Having made an excellent first impression with players in 1992, the great sabrecats have become a fixture of spin-off titles ever since.

Great sabrecats can be summoned by ringing Baumren's bell. The sabrecat will then transport the player around the world map at a faster rate than walking, except for Empycchu island. This side quest is found at Chateau Felix.
