Template:Sideicon

Alraune King is a plant/mandragora-type boss in Final Fantasy XII fought in the Sochen Cave Palace as a member of the Mandragoras, and later as a regular enemy in the Feywood, where the player can rarely steal the Cross Scale from it. It is also fought in the Zodiac versions' Trial Mode Stage 26 alongside eight regular Alraunes, and in Stage 27 with the other boss mandragoras where the Pheasant Netsuke can be stolen from it.

Etymology

Alraune is the German word for mandrake and is also the title of a German novel published in 1911 about the daughter, named Alraune, of a prostitute that has an overactive sex drive and no concept of love. This is based on legends which state that witches who make love to the mandrake root produce offspring that have no soul or feelings of love.
