The '''Peryton''' is an enemy from ''[[Final Fantasy III]]''. It is found as a regular enemy in [[Doga's Grotto]] and as a treasure chest enemy in the [[Sunken Cave (Final Fantasy III)|Sunken Cave]]. They are relatively dangerous as they can inflict moderate damage to a party member and often attacks with other Perytons. Physical attacks are the way to go, though in the DS version, [[Aeroga]] works extremely well. It's named after the mythological beast with bird and deer factions.
