Flee

Flee is a common command given in some Final Fantasy games that instructs either the entire party to run from a random encounter or a particular party member to run from that fight.

Flee makes its appearance in Final Fantasy XI in the form of a thief job ability. This is available to all thieves starting at level 25 and can be used once every 5 minutes. Once activated, it will drastically increase the rate of speed a character can run. The player will increase in speed to about the same rate a chocobo can run in the game, but only for about 30 seconds. The run speed of Flee is just slightly faster than Chocobo Mazurka.
