Ice Flan is an enemy in Final Fantasy Type-0.
Stats
Battle
Ice Flan absorb ice and resist physical attacks. Like all flan, they lunge at their opponents and there is a Killsight chance when dodging a lunging Ice Flan, and then hitting them right after.
Strategy
Because flan resist physical damage, only the strongest cadets, Cinque and Jack, are likely to do any decent damage with normal attacks. Magic (outside of ice magic) works well and will likely kill the flan in one hit. Approaching them and enticing them to lunge and then dodging to trigger the Killsight chance is also a quick way to deal with them.
Etymology
The word Flan refers to an open pastry or sponge cake containing a sweet or savory filling. A typical flan of this sort is round, with shortcrust pastry, usually coated with sweet syrup. It is similar to a custard tart or a South African melktert.
