Ithuno

The Ithuno is a Rare Game enemy in the game Final Fantasy XII. It can be found in the Barheim Passage. It is known among players as the source of the strongest weapon during the early hours of gameplay, the Deathbringer sword.

Bestiary Entry
Derivation: Mimeo

''Mimeo with an extremely hard carapace, several times more durable than that of the typical specimen. This strain, as yet unrecorded in the Camp annals, is hunted in the Barheim Passage.''

Requirement
Ithuno has a 20% chance of spawning for every entry into the area. As per this video (screenshot).

Upon entering Special Op Sector 5, Ithuno will be in a treasure chest near the end of the area, behind a big rock on the train tracks (also near one of the Surianders and after the Adamantitan). If a chest appears there, one will know it is Ithuno if the bottom section of it is purple and the chest itself is silver (most other chests in the area are green). The precise location can be confusing but the rock mentioned is circled in dark blue in the following image and the side its on has a bright dot (zoomed-out view).

Deathbringer can be stolen from it, one of the best weapons. It's possible to get more than one if the player keeps spawning Ithuno.
