Zalera
Zalera () is the third Lucavi demon whom Ramza Beoulve must fight in Final Fantasy Tactics. He is associated with the Gemini auracite and has possessed Marquis Elmdore of Limberry. Zalera is assisted by two Ultima Demons, Celia and Lettie, who are disguised as human women.
Story[]
Ramza fights Zalera at Limberry Castle after fighting Elmdore once at Riovanes Castle. Ramza must fight his way past Celia and Lettie to gain entry into the castle and face Elmdore who is backed by the two. During the battle, if Celia and Lettie are killed, they will return to their Ultima Demon form. Once the marquis is weakened, he retreats into the undercroft where he transforms into Zalera. Before Ramza can reach the undercroft, he must fight a resurrected Argath to enter.
Gameplay[]
Zalera's job is Angel of Death (PS)/Death Seraph (WotL). He has moves similar to CĂșchulainn, but is more powerful, and calls on several undead units to aid him. Ramza gains the aid of Meliadoul Tengille as a guest during this battle, and once Zalera is defeated, he dies and drops the Gemini Stone.
Zalera is level 44 with 70 Bravery and Faith, and has about 1125 HP and 730 MP. He is immune to negative statuses except Blind and Slow.

Etymology[]
Zalera's name may be an anagram of Azrael. Azrael is an angel in the Abrahamic religions known as the Angel of Death.
In the original version of the game, Zalera's name is mispelled as Zarela in his fight against Ramza at the Limberry Undercroft.
