Axebeak (アックスビーク, Akkusubīku?), also known as Axe Beak, is a recurring enemy in the series, appearing first in Final Fantasy IX. They are birds, usually being round, and having a long beak and short wings that end with claws. They are sometimes susceptible to water-elemental damage.
Appearances
Final Fantasy IX
Template:Sideicon
Axe Beaks are relatively weak, Beast-classified enemies encountered on the Mist Continent's Alexandria Plateau, Daines-horse Basin, and Lindblum Plateau. Their Glowing Eyes may put a party member to sleep and they can use Thundara, but due to their low stats the spell doesn't pose much threat. Quina can eat an Axe Beak in order to learn the Blu Mag spell, Limit Glove.
Final Fantasy XI
Template:Sideicon Axebeaks are a member of the family Cockatrice.
