Monster Sanctuary Species / Characters

Return to the main page.

Monsters are creatures of immense power and magic. They were originally found around the Old World, until they were relocated by the Monster Keepers to protect them from conflict.

1. Spectral Wolf

Type: Spirit Beast | Weakness: Earth | Resistance: Wind | Explore Ability: Claws

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/spectral_wolf_journal.png

One of the four Spectral Familiars, who played a role in the creation of the Monster Sanctuary. He is a cunning and aloof creature who is both feared and revered. The Wolf seems to be the player's canonical Spectral Familiar; if you choose another one, the Wolf will go to the character that Familiar would've gone to.

Blow You Away: His secondary element is Wind, which is also his resistance. He can cast Air Sickle and Gale as his standard skills while one of his ultimate skills is Typhoon Cut.
Critical Hit Class: The Spectral Wolf relies on critical hits for some of his abilities. For example, Claws deals additional critical damage, while Ice Spears inflicts Bleed to targets when dealing critical hits. In addition, he can grant Glory to himself and his allies to improve their critical chance while his Hunt ability creates an aura that boosts the party's critical chance.
Gravity Master: One of his ultimate skills is Gravity, a multi-targeting Neutral spell that deals additional damage based on the target's health and defense rating.

When combined with Critical Freeze, a passive ability that applies a guaranteed chill effect on the initial critical hit, and Cooling, another skill that has a 10% chance of applying chill on any attack, along with skills like Ice Storm and Blizzard that can also apply chill, the wolf can generate a substantial combo count through Flash Freeze.

111. Bard

Type: Bird Warrior | Weakness: Earth | Resistance: Wind | Explore Ability: Minnesang

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bard_journal.png

Intelligent monsters with a love of music. According to legend, Bards taught humans the art of music in ancient times, but they withdrew from the world when kings attempted to enslave them. The player is granted entry to the Forgotten World by a Bard, where it beseeches them to help it free the Wanderer from a curse.

Anti-Debuff: Its Light form has the Curse Breaker aura, which removes one debuff from each active party member at the beginning of its turn. Minnesang heals the target and removes harmful stacks as well.
The Bard: Apparently the origin of the archetype, if the Monster Compendium is to be believed. Their music is so beautiful that not even the best human minstrels can compare.
Blow You Away: Like most bird monsters, it seems attuned to this element. In addition to resisting Wind, it's capable of using Feather Storm, the standard physical Wind attack.
Combat Medic: Its signature ability is a healing skill that scales off of Attack, rather than Magic. This allows it to be an effective fighter and healer at the same time.
The Dog Bites Back: The cruel kings who attempted to enslave them quickly learned that "a Bard's voice is a fearsome instrument when enraged," according to the Monster Compendium.
Glass Cannon: An odd example, given it's also a Support Party Member. Though it has extremely useful abilities and a high Attack stat, its Defense and Health are poor, requiring some care if you hope to keep it alive.
Good Old Fisticuffs: Can learn the Beating skill, at odds with its otherwise refined aesthetic.
Magically Inept Fighter: Despite using Magic Music, its actual Magic stat is at rock bottom with a measly score of one. All its attacks are physical, and its Magic Music scales with its Attack stat instead.
Magic Music: Its music is the only way to open the gates to the Forgotten World. In battle, its music can also heal wounds.
Making a Splash: Learns the Water attack Water Surge.
Support Party Member: Its moveset is centered around buffs and healing, and it has several passives that make buffs even better; though it also has the interesting quirk of its healing skills scaling with its Attack stat, allowing it to be an effective Combat Medic as well.
Wandering Minstrel: Bards never stay in one place for long. The greedy kings of the Old World attempted to imprison and enslave them, but the Bards always retaliated violently to this offense.
Weapons-Grade Vocabulary: The Monster Compendium entry states that their songs can inflict physical harm, though their only Magic Music ability in gameplay is a healing spell. It's possible their physical attacks are also powered through their music, as their attacking animation features them playing their lute.
