The Muud Suud, also called Steroidite and Sterdite, is an enemy in Final Fantasy VI. It appears in the final dungeon in a specific room, the one south of the prison room where Ultima Buster lies. Movers also appear in this area.
Stats[]
Battle[]
On its first and third turns Muud Suud uses a normal attack or a stronger attack called Bodyslam; on its second and fourth turns, it has a 33% chance of using Snowstorm, Gigavolt, or Freezing Dust. On its fifth turn, it has a 33% chance of using Northern Cross.
The player can steal Thunder Shields from it, which can be turned into Genji Shields at the Coliseum. This is the easiest way to amass Genji Shields in the game.
Strategy[]
Holy-elemental attacks, such as the Holy Lance, Excalibur, and the Holy spell, are effective against it.
Coliseum setup[]
A good strategy is to use Mog equipped with the Holy Lance, Snow Scarf, and Safety Bit, along with a shield/helmet that will raise his Defense to 255, and then keep him in the back row.

Etymology[]
Muud Suud's older name is a combination of "Steroid" and "ite". A steroid is an organic compound with four rings arranged in a specific molecular configuration. Examples include the dietary lipid cholesterol, the sex hormones estradiol and testosterone:10–19 and the anti-inflammatory drug dexamethasone. "-ite" is a suffix for a chemical name of a molecule with one less oxygen atom than an "-ate" molecule.
