Zilart
From Final Fantasy Wiki
The Zilart are a race in Final Fantasy XI. They appear similar to Humes, yet they possess extremely high intelligence and magic potential. They possessed a trait known as the "whisper of the soul," which is most likely telepathy. An offshoot of the Zilart formed without this trait, known as the Kuluu, and were treated as lesser beings by the Zilart. (similar to the Enlightened Ones and the Earthbound from the Super Nintendo Entertainment System RPG Chrono Trigger).

[edit] History
The Zilart's ultimate plan was to open a gateway to the Paradise of the gods, using a massive system called the Gate of the Gods. The Gate was to be powered by the energy of Vana'diel's five Mothercrystals, channelled through giant power conduits to a central point at Delkfutt's Tower. They constructed a grand capitol city named Tu'Lia, which is levitated into the sky by the channeling of the Mothercrystals' power. Tu'Lia was to be the gate, but at the moment of activation, the Kuluu sabotaged the Gate's power source, resulting in a cataclysmic meltdown that wiped out the land (known later as the Meltdown).
