Lich (Summon)
From Final Fantasy Wiki
Lich (リッチ, Ricchi) is a recurring summoning in the Final Fantasy series, based on the enemy of the same name.
[edit] Appearances
[edit] Final Fantasy Tactics
Lich, mistranslated as Rich in the original English release, is one of the Summon spells of Final Fantasy Tactics. It appears as an undead mage and spits out a blast of evil lightning as it flies overhead. This attack is especially effective against Lucavi demons as it can even do 999 damage to Ultima. This is due to the fact that Lich's attack works by dealing half of a monster's maximum health in damage, and bosses such as Ultima have well over the 1998 health required to reach to the damage cap.
It costs 40 MP to summon, has a speed of 12, and needs 600 JP to learn.
In the original PlayStation version, when summoned, the summoner will sometimes mutter, "Death song, death door, death river awaiting! Rich!". This was removed from the PSP port, The War of the Lions.
[edit] Dissidia Final Fantasy
Lich appears as one of the summons in Dissidia, represented by a colored version of his Final Fantasy art. When summoned, it casts Doom on the opponent's Brave Points; after twenty seconds, the opponent's Brave Points are reduced to zero. Lich can be obtained as a Stage Bonus on the Shade Impulse I storyline.
