Coerthas Western Highlands


  The great snows which came to the highlands of Coerthas in the wake of the Calamity led to the extinction of countless plants and animals. Before then, the fertile banks of the two rivers which flow through the western highlands were once teeming with life, and the surrounding pastures made for excellent grazing. Alas, as the temperatures dropped and the rivers froze, the vegetation withered and died, as did the livelihoods of Ishgard's farmers and shepherds.

S Rank Kaiser Behemoth

No doubt you've heard of Behemoths, those monstrous beasts that have been a bane on Coerthas ever since the Calamity. Adventurers like you have faced them in battle countless times, and have been meeting with more and more success of late. However, there is one among their number that has always made good its escape, even when gravely wounded by the swords and spells of myriad adventurers. Due to its giant size and superior strength, it has become known as the king of behemoths. They say that this kaiser behemoth, whose body is crisscrossed with the scars of a thousand battles, seeks any opportunity to avenge itself on the adventurers who defeated its brothers. If you value your life, I'd avoid doing anything to arouse its ire.

A Rank Mirka

Once every hundred thousand years or so, a yeti is born with a horn atop its massy head that is imbued with an extraordinary magical power. When the creature reaches maturity, it sends out a clarion call to the rest of the yetis that unites them under the horned one's rule. ... Or so the old wives' tale goes. The problem is, there just might be some truth in it. The Convictors believe they may have sighted such a 'horned one.' The first thing they did was was to name her Mirka–the second, to slap a bounty on her head. The yetis are dangerous enough as it is, but if this beast lives to maturity and brings them together as a single force, they could be nigh on unstoppable.

A Rank Lyuba

There was once a dragonslayer who was out hunting his prey on the frozen lake of Ashpool, when he made a surprising discovery. An enormous animal was frozen solid underneath the ice. Thinking that he could use the deceased creature's meat to lure the dragons into a trap, he lit a bonfire over the lake to melt its body free. A most ill-advise plan indeed... You see, the beast wasn't quite as dead as the knight first thought. Freed from its icy prison, it began to breathe once more, and lashed out at all around it with elemental fury. When the dragonslayer set out to hunt for dragons, I doubt he expected to meet his end at the point of a tusk.

B Rank Alteci

I was born and raised here in the western highlands, so I know firsthand how much the place has changed. As the climate has got colder and colder, creatures that were never native to Coerthas have come down from the mountains to find food The mylodons are one such species. Time was they made their home up in the far reaches of Abalathia's Spine, but ever since their hunting grounds were lost to the Calamity, they've found their way down here. They're fierce carnivores, who see steel-clad knights as nothing more than a packed lunch. Alecti's the worst of the lot–a mad myladon who's been laying waste to the local forces. At the last count, more than a dozen noble lives have been lost to that monster.

B Rank Kreutzet

Have you ever came across an aechaeornis? At first sight you might think they were birds, what with the feathers and all, but they're actually a primitive species of scaleskin, closer to raptors than they are to chocobos. The only thing they definitely share with birds is their brain–that combination of mental weakness and physical strength makes them perfect thralls for the dragons, who use them to launch constant attacks on the Ishgardian forces. The knights are particularly wary of the one they call Kreutzet. He's got such a strength in those thighs of his, even the thickest snowdrift's not enough to slow him down. He races hither and thither across the snowfields, tearing apart any outpost unlucky enough to stand in his way.
