Profile[]
Homo Fios first appears in the Giant Sandworm's Belly as an optional boss blocking a swift path in the hindgut. It will cast Fishy Fadango to maximize its speed, followed by Masukunda immediately as soon as the battle starts. This is mostly luck-based, as there is no way for the party to remove the preemptive speed boosts it casts on itself (the party might have access to Dekunda during this phase of the game so they can remove the speed debuffs afterwards, but they do not have Dekaja, ensuring the enemy will always be at maximum speed). While it is extremely frail and does not appear to hit particularly hard, its tendency to evade hits, when combined with the Giant Sandworm's Belly's 15-minute time limit, can prove to be fatal. If the party attempts to wait out the speed buffs/debuffs, it will cast them instantly on the turn they wear out.
It later appears as a regular enemy in Kriegante Castle. While the Giant Sandworm's Belly's time limit is not present, Homo Fios still retains the same moves as always, making them still annoying to deal with.
