Notes:

• Spawned at North-West Corner of (H-9) in Ru'Aun Gardens with Chapter 7 Elite Training
• Observed having effects of en-thunder, en-blizzard, en-poison, en-blind and en-silence which seems random.
• Absorbs Elemental Magic of the Current Day
• May absorb Thunder damage.
• May have spikes based on current day of the week.
• May start with up to 9 shadows.
• Has about the same strength as a Groundskeeper, but double the accuracy.

• UPDATE, PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING.
• Depops, uncharms or otherwise dismisses pets in use when summoned; death does not result in item loss; XP is not lost upon death while under battle conditions; Eraser (Monster) does NOT aggro upon reraise or magic casting.
• Soloable by summoner/anything: See testimonials below. <Infidelity 11:23, November 18, 2009 (UTC)>

• Soloable by RDM/NIN, melee with Enhancing Sword + Justice Sword or bind/nuke strats.
• Soloable by RDM/BLU with Taco
• Soloable by SCH/RDM, with bind/nuke strats. (pulled to safe place, opened with Manifestation + Sleep II to wipe any possible shadows.)

• Casts Tier II nukes, Absorb spells, and Bio/Pioson.
• Spawned, did not cast spells, triple attacked, had tp regen, and spammed Kartstrahl making it impossible to kite. Spawned as 75BLU/NIN. Possibly has varying jobs.
• Beastmaster pet Flamingo will get uncharmed as soon as pop unable to charm monster in the area again solo as BST not recommended.
• Job changes each pop or each day. All jobs seem to have Double Attack. Witnessed jobs are:
  • Thief (very high/almost 100% Triple Attack)
  • Dark Knight (casts all DRK spells).
  • White Mage (casts all WHM spells).
  • Monk (2-4 attacks each attack round).
  • Bard (casts all songs).

• Was resistant to sleep/bind/blind (even with ES) on lightsday. Had a very fast attack speed. Will need further testing, might have just popped dark based.
• Spawned NM and with evasion skill 310+ still 95%+ accuracy similar to Valley of Sorrows Adamantoise but used all spells mentioned above excluding bard songs. (shell IV, Cure V, Aspir, Bio II etc etc)
• May spawn with MP absortion ability, absorb 11-15mp per hit
