Glutturn when defeated
The Glutturns are Magic Pot-type enemies encountered at random in the Soul Shrine in the GBA and 2014 ports of Final Fantasy VI, sometimes more than once during the same string of battles. The four Glutturns ask the player to use a rare item on them, and if not appeased within a time limit, attack the party with a variety of powerful moves. The party can steal rare and valuable equipment from them, but this means enduring their power for an extended period until the item is obtained.

Battle[]
The green Glutturn asks for an Ether, uses four physical attacks every turn, and ten physical attacks when killed. This can be nullified by summoning Phantom to cast Invisible on the party, or casting Vanish on each party member. A Force Shield can be stolen from it. Due to Phantom, this is arguably the easiest Glutturn to face.
The yellow Glutturn asks for an X-Ether, uses powerful status-inducing magic, including Cloudy Heaven, and Disaster and Diabolic Whistle when killed. It has a Master's Scroll to steal, but the player can win these from Samurai Soul who also appears in the Soul Shrine, so it is advised to give this Glutturn what it wants and avoid the risk, unless the characters have Ribbons.
The blue Glutturn asks for a Hi-Ether, uses Punish twice every turn to instantly kill two party members, and Blaster when killed to potentially wipe out the entire party. Vanish works to make Punish miss, as it is a physical attack. This Glutturn has a Celestriad, but they can be won from the Brachiosaur, so the player may wish to pass up this Glutturn as well, unless the characters have Safety Bits for Blaster and Invisible status for Punish.
The red Glutturn asks for an Elixir, casts Ultima every turn, and Heartless Angel when killed. Celes or Gogo can use Runic to absorb the spell's damage. This Glutturn has a Soul of Thamasa, the only way to acquire more of them. Thus, if the player has Celes or Gogo in their party, it is advised to brave the danger to acquire the relic. This is the most dangerous Glutturn due to Heartless Angel being unblockable while the final attacks of the other Glutturn can be avoided.
Strategy[]
The best strategy to stealing is to equip Locke or Shadow with Thief's Knife and equip Genji Gloves together with Master's Scroll, then use Quick (not absorbed by Runic) so that they can steal many times. The player needs to heal the Glutturn so that they will not accidentally defeat it while they try to steal the rare items.
