Necromancer (Final Fantasy VI)

The Necromancer is an enemy in Final Fantasy VI. It can be fought at the Phoenix Cave. It is dangerous as its special attack, Zombie Stick, turns party members into Zombies, and it uses the attack every other turn. If damaged by anything other than a physical attack, it has a chance to counter with Gravity or Graviga on the attacker. It is most dangerous when alone, when it has a chance to use Death, Flare, or Banish every turn, the latter capable of instantly killing the entire party. For this reason it should be defeated first. Fira spells and Holy-elemental weapons work best.
