Leg Eater

Leg Eaters are small man-eating plant enemies that appear in Final Fantasy II. They are encountered in several grassland areas. Leg Eaters consist of a green head that is attached to a pink vine. They appear to have a few dull yellow leaves growing from them. Leg Eaters have a vicious-looking face. In the original Famicom release, Leg Eaters are depicted as blue and purple. In the PlayStation Portable remake, Leg Eaters have a different pose than in earlier remakes. Leg Eaters are one of the weakest enemies in Final Fantasy II, as they can usually be defeated from one hit.

Leg Eaters are found in the surrounding areas of Altair, Paloom, and Poft, in Fynn (prior to defeating Gottos), in Bafsk Cave (floors B1 and 1F), Kashuan, Kashuan Keep (1F), and Arcane Labyrinth.

In the Final Fantasy Origins remake, these enemies are known as Stranglers. In the unreleased North American Nintendo Entertainment System prototype, their name is formatted LegEater.
