The Ultima Beast

From Final Fantasy XIV Online Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This prototype primal countermeasure was created as part of the Ultima Project. A bioweapon of flesh and blood brought to life via chimerical science, it boasts remarkable vigor and advanced arcane abilities. By merging its traits with those of Ultima Warrior, an early bipedal prototype, the Allagans went on to conceive Proto Ultima.

Lore

Building upon lessons learned during the development of the Ultima Warrior, the Allagans next endeavored to create a bio-weapon. Using the behemoth as the creature's base, they blended other suitable creatures into its composition through chimerical processes, creating a weapon that boasted unrivaled vitality. Its design also employed a mechanism that could temporarily increase its overall power through an injection of alchemical mixtures. In terms of pure destructive capability, the Ultima Beast was equaled only by a handful of other creations during the empire's reign. Yet like other chimeric creatures, it suffered from an unstable temperament, and ensuring that its wrath did not turn upon friend instead of foe was an ever-present challenge.
