Battle[]

The Behemoth is a powerful enemy to deal with, except in Chapter 5, where it is easy compared to the rest of the enemies the party can fight. It has well-balanced stats and absorbs Lightning-elemental attacks. Inflicting DEF Down as well as hard-hitting physical attacks and having Lightning-resistant or -absorbing equipment helps with dealing with this enemy.

In Oversoul, the Behemoth will start targeting one character at a time with powerful physical attacks, so using Protect or a Light Curtain will help reduce the damage from those attacks. Behemoths are always found alone.

Creature Creator[]

The Behemoth the player captures is a particular one named Behemoth, who hopes to realize his dream of selling balloons. Throughout his journey he receives help from Bombs, who tell him about different kinds of balloons; machina, who help him dig up air pumps in the Bikanel Desert; and the Hypello, who teach him how to inflate balloons. When released, Behemoth opens his own balloon-selling caravan in the Kilika Woods, but initially scares away other fiends due to his monstrous appearance. When the Kinderguardians approach Behemoth unintimidated and buy balloons from him, the other fiends realize there's nothing to be afraid of and buy balloons from him as well, satisfying Behemoth's dream.

Etymology[]

Behemoth is a beast mentioned in the biblical Book of Job 40:15–24. In addition to mythological creatures, it is likened to dinosaurs, especially sauropods, as well as elephants, hippos, rhinos, and bison. Metaphorically, the term behemoth denotes "an extremely large or powerful entity".
