- "As its name suggests, a powerful foe. Reduces HP to 1 with Fallen One, or attacks with S. Cross, then vanishes with Melt. Just hope 2 don't appear at once."

The Fiend Dragon, also known as Doom Drgn, is an enemy in Final Fantasy VI. It is one of the most dangerous enemies in Kefka's Tower, mainly because it counterattacks with Heartless Angel frequently, which is unblockable and reduces the HP of the entire party to 1. If this happens, it can mean an instant Game Over if no one in the party is immune to or absorbs Fire, because it can use Southern Cross to attack the entire party for Fire-elemental damage. The Fiend Dragon also uses Northern Cross to freeze characters (although its own Southern Cross can remove the status), and Dissolve to give itself the Vanish status. They can sometimes appear in groups of two, making them all the more dangerous. They only appear in a single hallway near the end of the tower before the party confronts Demon, as well as in a small "U-Turn" shaped cave area taken only by the 1st Party that links a laboratory and exterior area. Thus, since it's not unlikely the player will wander through both areas without a random encounter, the player may quite easily miss it.
Betting a Rename Card in the Dragon's Neck Coliseum starts a battle with a Fiend Dragon for a pair of Miracle Shoes. The player can also Steal useful Guard Bracelets from them. Though the Guard Bracelet is not as useful as the aforementioned Miracle Shoes, it can be bet in the Coliseum to win a Hero's Ring, a relatively rare Relic that acquiring in quantities otherwise requires a lot of time and gil invested at the Auction.
