Ahriman (Tactics A2)

The Ahriman is a class of monster in Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift. Winged, cycloptic entities, their single eye can inflict a multitude of debuffs on target units, most of them relying on making eye contact with their targets.

Simply facing units away from or even sideways to the Ahriman will make them immune to their gaze. In addition, Ahrimans also retain their signature move, Roulette. They are Flying units and cannot move in water. Ahrimans should not be confused with the smaller Floating Eye species.
