Etymology
Edit
Catoblepas (from the Greek expression καταβλέπω katablépō meaning "to look downwards") is a legendary creature from Ethiopia, described first by Pliny the Elder and later by Claudius Aelianus. It is said to have the body of a buffalo and the head of a wild boar. Its back has scales that protect the beast, and its head is always pointing downwards due to its head being heavy. Its stare or breath could either turn people into stone, or kill them.
Trivia
Edit
- The Final Fantasy IV: The Complete Collection sprite of Catoblepas is the same as the Ice Lizard from the mobile version of Final Fantasy II.
