Mob Description: "Time and again, the residents of Idyllshire have come under attack from a huge, hairy beastkin─imagine if you crossed a Roegadyn with an opo-opo, and had it row a ten-tonze galley for a twelvemoon. I scoured the Sharlayan annals for a record of such a monster, and finally found it─it's a Gigantopithecus, a fierce beast native to the tropical jungles of The Cieldalaes. It was brought here as a youngling by a Sharlayan scholar, who raised it in a specially constructed glasshouse in some vain attempt to research its ecology. But when the exodus came, the callow whelp didn't think of taking his pet with him. Now it falls to the Clan to pick up the pieces." [1]

Genus Description:
This muscular monstrosity is one of Eorzea's few bipedal simians, though it can only be found in the jungles that cover the countless tiny islands that dot the realm's southern seas. While the sasquatch is known for its remarkable strength—an adult is rumored to possess the might of seven full-grown Roegadyn—the creatures are also believed to have highly developed minds, with some even displaying the ability to use simple stone tools to crack open crab or coconut shells.[2]
