Wild Onion is a plant/mandragora-type enemy in Final Fantasy XII found in the Paramina Rift. Wild Onions are docile until attacked and will not become aggressive when others of their kind are attacked around them, unlike some other mandragoras. The player can rarely poach it into a Healing Rod.

Eight of them are also fought in the Zodiac versions' Trial Mode in Stage 25 alongside an Onion Queen.

Etymology

The onion, also known as the bulb onion or common onion, is used as a vegetable and is the most widely cultivated species of the genus Allium.

In a 2020 Famitsu interview with Koichi Ishii and Hiromichi Tanaka about Final Fantasy III, Tanaka stated that he created the term "Onion Knight" after seeing Ishii's character design for the job, likening the shape of its helmet's large, white plume to that of an onion.[1]

Fans had previously speculated that "Onion Knight" refers to the Japanese metaphoric idiom "peeling away one layer at a time and crying all the way" (referring to poverty) or from the slang phrase "to know one's onions" (meaning to be very versatile).


Trivia

  • The Original Japanese Guidebook cites the Wild Onions' MP as being 1750–1762, but subsequent guides list it as 999.
