Death Warden

The Death Warden, also known as the Allo Ver, is an enemy in Final Fantasy VI. It attacks as a monster-in-a-box in the Cave on the Veldt.

Battle
It casts Death quite frequently, and its special attack Dead End is also an Instant Death attack, so it is helpful to bring along Gau and have him use the Lich or any other undead Rage, thus making him immune to Death. The Lich Rage works best because it can use Fira as its secondary attack, to which Death Warden is weak. However, as with all undead enemies, the Death Warden can be defeated instantly be using a Phoenix Down on it. It drops the Tiger Fangs when defeated, the strongest weapon available for Sabin short of his Advance-exclusive Godhand.

Rage
Notably, though the Death Warden has a Rage, it does not appear on the Veldt due to a programming error, so Gau cannot learn the Rage without the use of cheating devices. This error was corrected in the Advance version, however the only compatible formation to appear on the Veldt is the one in the Soul Shrine, the one in the Cave on the Veldt is not a valid formation to activate this Rage to appear on the Veldt.
