Adrammelech



Adrammelech, the Wroth is the name of a recurring creature in Ivalice. Appearing as a large winged monster with horns, he has been both a Summon and one of the Lucavi, and is always associated with the sign Capricorn.

Final Fantasy XII
Adrammelech is associated with the element of Lightning, and is an optional Esper in Final Fantasy XII. Despite his dragon-like form, there are several parts in relevance to a goat, most notably his goat-like head and the cloven hooves on his feet. Due to his power over Thunder, his color sign is Yellow. Adrammelech is also referred to as the Makara Ascendant, which is the Sanskrit name of its Zodiac sign as used in Jyotish (Hindu) astrology.

He is fought in the middle of the Zertinan Caverns and summons several undead to aid him during the fight. Once defeated, he can be summoned by the player. Adrammelech's standard special attack is Flash Arc, a powerful thunder-elemental attack, and its ultimate attack is Judgment Bolt, which does thunder-elemental damage to all enemies in range.

Adrammelech's license costs 25 LP, and he requires one Mist Charge to summon.

Abilities
Flash Arc: A Thunder-elemental attack. It is like the standard higher level Thunder spell.

Judgment Bolt: A Thunder-elemental attack, and Adrammelech's ultimate attack. Spiraling upwards, in high-speed flight, Adrammelech suffuses his body with electrical energy. The clouds surrounding Adrammelech darken. He then unleashes bolts of lightning from his body, sundering the ground around the enemy. This is followed by a blast of lightning striking the enemy directly, sending debris flying into the air.

In Final Fantasy XII International Flash Arc's power has been boosted, but Adrammelech casts Cura instead of Curaga. He has gained the Null Vitality augment.

Stats
Adrammelech absorbs Thunder but is weak against Ice, nullifying damage from any other element. Even though Adrammelech is a flying opponent when he is fought as a boss, he is no longer aerial when he is summoned.

Adrammelech, dormant in the Capricorn Zodiac Stone, takes over Dycedarg Beoulve's body after he is wounded during a battle against his younger brothers Ramza and Zalbaag. Adrammelech then immediately kills Zalbaag and several guards from the Order of the Northern Sky. However, Ramza and his group are able to defeat him.
