Scion that is both horse and woman, wielding utter control over the souls that wander the underworld, in opposition to the Martyr Igeyorhm, scion of light. Though she once served the gods as a guardian, when Ultima announced her rebellion, Shemhazai went to her, whispering of the gods' hidden weaknesses. She then descended upon the land without leave of the gods, and taught men of destruction and evil. For this was she stricken down and bound.
Clan Primer Bio
Shemhazai, the Whisperer is a level two Esper in Final Fantasy XII. She is fought during the main storyline in the lowest reaches of Giruvegan.
Shemhazai's license costs 50 LP, and she requires two Mist Charges to summon.
Profile
The Esper of Soul, Shemhazai represents the zodiac sign of Sagittarius, the Archer. Shemhazai's hands resemble crossbows, she has horse-like qualities and from her power of soul, her color sign is pink. She is also referred to as the Dhanus Ascendant, which is the Sanskrit name of its zodiac sign as used in Jyotish (Hindu) astrology.
Shemhazai is based on a Scion from Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift. She returns in Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings as a Rank III Lightning Melee summon, although she is referred to as being male.
Story
Shemhazai is found in the lowest reaches of Giruvegan, just before the warp point leading to the Occuria, in the Gate of Fire. It can be assumed they sealed her here to protect them. Shemhazai is the third of the five Espers obtained during the main story.
Obtained
After being fought as a boss during the main storyline, her license can be purchased on the License Board for 50 LP.
Unlocked abilities in Zodiac versions
Esper licenses sometimes unlock licenses that could not otherwise be reached. Shemhazai's license will appear on all boards, but once chosen by a character, will disappear from all other boards. In The Zodiac Age version, the player can choose two license boards for each playable character, and activated licenses are activated on both boards if present.
Shemhazai allows access to the following licenses on these boards:
- Archer: Heavy Armor 10, 11, 12 (Dragon Helm, Dragon Mail, Magepower Shishak, Maximillian, Grand Helm, Grand Armor)
- Black Mage: Mirror Mail
- Shikari: Guns 5, 6 (Spica, Antares, Arcturus, Fomalhaut)
- Knight: Potion Lore 2
- Machinist: Hand-bombs 3 (Caldera, Volcano)
- Monk: Potion Lore 3
- Red Battlemage: White Magick 7 (Esuna, Cleanse)
- Bushi: Shield Block
- White Mage: +230 HP
Battle
Shemhazai requires two Mist Charges to summon.
Abilities
- Devour Soul
A non-elemental attack. Its damage is calculated just like the item Knot of Rust:
- Shemhazai's Current HP / (Random number 1â10)
- Its damage cap is 9999.
In the Zodiac releases, its damage depends on the maximum HP. In the original release, it is her current HP, and thus does more damage when she's at Max HP. To improve damage, the player can cast the spell Bubble on her.
- Soul Purge
A non-elemental attack, and Shemhazai's ultimate attack. Shemhazai walks to the top of a cliff under the moonlight. She charges her guns, jumps off the cliff, shooting the enemies in range with pure soul energy. She lands near the enemies, and the soul energy that struck the enemies charges up into multiple explosions. Damage is calculated just like the item Dark Matter:
- (Sum of all Knot of Rust damage + Sum of all Devour Soul damage) / 3
Its damage cap is 60,000, making it the second most powerful single attack in Final Fantasy XII, only bested by Zeromus's Big Bang, and one of the only attacks that breaks the damage limit. Once used, the damage is set back down to 0, and has to be built up again. Unlike most other Esper attacks, Soul Purge is unaffected by Reverse.
