Petitioner's Location: Jahara

• Saw bill posted for the hunting of the Catoblepas (Rank VI). The petitioner is War-chief Supinelu in the Lull of the Land in Jahara.
• Hunt accepted. The Catoblepas is War-chief Supinelu's sworn enemy. It is to be found in Zertinan Caverns.

[edit] Bestiary Entry

Genus: Rank VI Mark
Classification: Behemoth

"A Tyrant among Behemoths, possessed of evil, red Eyes. Such who face it are consumed with fear upon meeting its Glare, their bodies becoming as Stone with their Terror. A Garif who fought the Catoblepas long ago and lived to tell of his Failure posted a Bill for this Mark."

[edit] Battle

Catoblepas can be found at the secret pathway from the Save Crystal in Zertinan Caverns. Before approaching Catoblepas, buff everyone, including War-chief Supinelu. As usual, Dispel Catoblepas's positive status and start attacking him. War-Chief Supinelu should be casting Magicks, but he can dish out a few physical attacks occasionally. Mind you, War-Chief's physical attacks are quite low, so don't expect him to be a powerhouse. Catoblepas's attacks are similar to Behemoth-kind enemies, only harder and faster - of the 3,000 - 3,500 damage type. His powerful blows can easily bring down one of your guys if they're not high leveled enough, so Bubble is a must to ensure survival. Also try blinding him to ease up the battle. When his health hits critical, finish him quick since he'll chain his attacks often.

Rewards:

• 3,200 gil
• Volcano
