Plague (Final Fantasy VI)

The Plague is a boss in the Advance version of Final Fantasy VI. It is based on the Plague Horror boss in Final Fantasy IV, which was known as Plague in the original SNES release of that game.

Plague immediately casts Doom on the party at the start of the battle, giving the player less than twenty seconds to defeat it before their party members die one by one. Plague uses Haste on party members to make the Doom timer go faster, and Gaze to inflict Blind, Silence, and Confuse on a party member, and this attack ignores immunity to status ailments. Although Reraise can be used to revive party members after the Doom timers end, Plague then uses physical attacks that may kill anyone who survives, but it does not use Doom more than once. With only 22,000 HP, Plague is weaker than most of the normal enemies the player has faced in Dragons' Den up to this point, and so the player should have no trouble killing it before the Doom counters hit zero.

Defeating Plague rewards the party with Relm's ultimate weapon, the Angel Brush.
