And so on you, Ramza, my gaze alights. Now know regret, a traitor's recompense!
Adrammelech
Adrammelech (), also known as Adramelk, is the fourth Lucavi demon that Ramza Beoulve must face in Final Fantasy Tactics. He is associated with the Capricorn auracite.
Profile[]
Appearance[]
Adrammelech is a demi human with a goat's face and dark brown goat horns. He has tanned skin and dark green fur on his head, back, and legs, and his arms are tied to his torso with a green rope.
Story[]
Adrammelech is first mentioned during the events of Limberry Castle by the possessed Messam Elmdore, who remarks Adrammelech to be stuck in a limbo and be unable to assist their goal. However, Folmarv Tengille informs him a suitable candidate has been found for Adrammelech's host.
Adrammelech takes over Dycedarg Beoulve after he is injured during a fight with his brothers Zalbaag and Ramza. He kills Zalbaag and several nearby Order of the Northern Sky guards, and attacks Ramza. Ramza defeats him, and as he dies, Adrammelech expresses regret over assuming a mortal body and complains about Ultima not being present to help him.
Gameplay[]
Adrammelech's job is Ghost of Fury (PS)/Wroth (WotL) in the game. He starts at level 46 with 70 Bravery and Faith, and has roughly 1515 HP and 415 MP. He is immune to all negative statuses except Silence, Blind, and Immobilize. Due to this, Silence-inducing attacks cripple Adrammelech's full power.
Despite representing the sign of Capricorn in the lore, Adrammelech's zodiac sign in this fight is Scorpio.
When Dycedarg transforms into Adrammelech and removes all the knights fighting alongside him on the field, there is a glitch that can be performed in the PS version that involves using a female to charm any of the knights before the sequence takes place. The charmed knight will not be removed because he is considered an "ally" during this effect. Attacking him will removed his charmed status and he'll remain throughout the battle, fighting alongside Adrammelech unless killed or persuaded him to join Ramza's army with an Orator's abilities.
Rendezvous[]
When fought in the thirteenth Rendezvous battle: Nightmares, he is level 99 and carries the same abilities and status immunities as previously.

Etymology[]
Adramelech was a god called Baal Adramelech (Baal means "Lord" and melech means "King" in Hebrew) in Assyrian mythology. It is said that children were sacrificed to him, but Greek accounts saying that child sacrifice via burning them or placing them within a heated bronze statue of the god are not historically verifiable, as no archaeological proof of such a large, bronze statue exists.
Adramelech is considered a demon in Judeo-Christian tradition, being generally depicted with a human torso and head, and the rest of the body of a mule, a peacock, or some combination there of. He was described as "The enemy of God, greater in ambition, guile and mischief than Satan. A fiend more cursed — a deeper hypocrite".
