• Spawns in the same room as Orcish Warlord.
• Casts spells such as Flood, Stonega III, Sleepga, Sleepga II, Bio, Drown, Drain and Ice Spikes.
• His spells have very fast cast, my guess would be close to 50% less casting time. And uses Ancient Magic.
• Has additional effect: Drain more than occasionally for 300 damage or more. Tested 369 on a SAM70 and a MNK70. Shadows strongly suggested.
• Resistant to Silence and Dispel, but Magic Finale has a high success rate.
• Also resistant to Paralyze II but susceptible to Slow II.
• Uses normal ghost TP moves including AoE curse.

• Solo with NIN/DNC.

Historical Background

In the English language and culture, a bugaboo was a word used to refer to anything imaginary and frightening, which usually caused needless fear or fright or something used to frighten children. The Bugaboo was not an actual entity from folklore. Bugaboo (and Boogeyman) derive from the same word, bug/bugge, which is Anglo-Saxon for "terror", "ghost", or "devil".
