Template:FFXII Enemies The Vorpal Bunny is a Rank III Mark from Final Fantasy XII. The hunt becomes available after defeating Bergan in Mt. Bur-Omisace. Vorpal Bunny can be found in the Rustling Chapel area of Golmore Jungle.
According to Nera, the petitioner, it only shows itself every seven years, and that its tail is used by viera salve-makers to create a special substance, called "Vision Dust," as a rite of passage. She posted the bill in order for her friend, Alja, to become a full-fledged salve-maker, as Alja herself is not quick enough to catch one because of her lame leg.

Bestiary Entry
Genus: Rank III Mark
Classification: Dreamhare
"Being a Dreamhare possessing a distinctive dark-furred Body and feathered Ears. Its large white Tail contains a unique Oil, used by the viera for Centuries as an Ingredient in potent Unguents and Remedies. It is understandably quite wary of Man, and therefore difficult to Catch. Posted as a Mark by a kind soul hoping to help her Friend become a true Salve-Maker"
Battle
The Vorpal Bunny is a scarce creature, and will prefer to run away rather than fight. Under no circumstances may it run out of the player's sight, or it will go underground and fully recover whatever damage the player had inflicted. After clearing the the lower chapel area of all enemies, the player should cast Protect on every party member. As soon as it appears, one should cast Dispel on it to remove the Faith status.
One strategy is to lob as many Berserks or Bacchus's Wines at it till it goes crazy to force it to stay in one place. This will make its normal attacks do over 400 damage with good armor on, but the damage can be lowered with Protect. Also, a long-enough Quickening chain can kill the Vorpal Bunny instantly.
It is easiest to defeat the Vorpal Bunny enemy without defeating all other enemies in the The Rustling Chapel area. If the player does, Dark Skeleton enemies will spawn over the area. If the player cannot handle attacking the Vorpal Bunny with Dark Skeleton enemies, they can chain 50 of the enemy, and they will stop spawning so the player can focus on the Vorpal Bunny enemy. Alternatively they can leave and re-enter the area, a method which lacks the Exp benefit.

Nera will be waiting at the entrance to Eruyt Village, as not to let anyone from the village know she had gotten help from outsiders. She tells Vaan to follow her from a distance so that they can speak freely at a disclosed location, but they are spotted by Alja.
