I am Mordruk, just a name that I made up one day when I was bored and it stuck with me. I have
written many other FAQs for gamefaqs for games like Donkey Kong, Darkstone, Soul Reaver: Legacy
of Kain, Sonic Adventure, Blue Stinger, and 2 others for Final Fantasy VIII. If you have any
comments, suggestions, questions, additions, etc about this creature guide please E-mail me at
Mordruk@hotmail.com. Please read my copyright below even if you aren't planning on posting this
guide. Thanks and I hope you find this guide helpful.

2-INTRODUCTION TO GUIDE
=================================================================================================
This is going to be a very long guide since there are many, many monsters in this game but I'm
going to update it every day and not just the weekends unlike my other FAQs on gamefaqs. This
guide will include all the information including it's weaknesses, HP range, AP, a description
which is straight from the game, draw spells, and it's strengths and/or special abilities, and
many other things. Thankyou for reading this.
Special thanks to RPGKING33@aol.com for suggesting using | instead of I for my columns:)

3-KEY
=================================================================================================
Here is how each monster will be setup in a table. This will make it much easier to read. I put
some notes that explain some of the numbers or symbols I put so here are the explanations.
Note 1: 4=absorbs, 3=doesn't work, 2=works well, 1=normal effect, 2+=kills instantly
Note 2: HP rounded to 100s.
Note 3: This magic is based on the monster at level 30+, below level 30 are different magics.
