Mandragora (Final Fantasy IX)

The Mandragora is an enemy from Final Fantasy IX. It can be found on the Alexandria Plateau, Bentini Heights, the forest near the Mist Continent's Chocobo Forest on King Ed Plains, and Edgecry Coast on the Mist Continent. It is the first monster Quina can learn Limit Glove from.

Its Chestnut attack deals damage equivalent to its maximum HP - current HP to a single target, which can be dangerous when the party is at lower levels. Shriek simply inflicts Silence.

Its weakness against Fire can be exploited for more damage.
