Dhruva

Pure aether cloaked in crystal is how one might describe these stunning creatures commonly found wandering the blood-soaked sands of war. Yet, their beauty belies a deadly secret: the elementals are, in fact, harbingers of impending misfortune.

— Encyclopædia Eorzea vol 2

No one is certain how they came about, but one theory describes dhruvas as a manner of naturally occurring golem ─ crystals that have spontaneously shaped themselves into monstrous forms. They appear and act like living beings, but have no intelligence to speak of. All that is known is that dhruvas are drawn to other creatures in a relentless hunt for aether. Gyr Abanians have learned to loathe and fear them.
