Final Fantasy VI PlayStation Bestiary entry

The Illuyankas, also called Ceritops, is an enemy in Final Fantasy VI. Like most enemies in Yeti's Cave, it frequently inflicts the Imp status using its special attack, Friendmaker. It only has 100 MP and dies when it drops to 0, so a single Rasp will kill it. It may drop a White Cape, a useful relic for the cave as it immunizes the wearer to the imp status.
