EtymologyEdit

Ahriman is the Middle Persian name for the Angra Mainyu, the Zoroastrian idea of the devil.

"Allemagne" is the French term for "Germany"; it is a mistranslation of Ahriman which was only used in Final Fantasy VII and fan translations.

TriviaEdit

  • A Ghost Card in Dissidia Final Fantasy is named Ahriman, and bears the Player Icon of the Ahriman from Final Fantasy III. The Ahriman card is a Level 52 Cloud of Darkness that has the Purple Gem and Gnomish Bread to be won through Battlegen. The quote on the card, "None shall be able to stop it! You will never leave this place alive" is paraphrasing of what the Ahriman in Final Fantasy III says to the party before attacking.
