Ahriman

Of the four bosses in the World of Darkness, Ahriman is the most notorious—and the most famous in Final Fantasy history. He's a powerful spellcaster with resistances to every Element and access to a lot of powerful Spells. Meteor is his most dangerous attack, and if he starts using it repeatedly (which isn't entirely unlikely) you might lose no matter what you do.

Elemental Vulnerability

Veterans have a ton of HP, and all they do is repeatedly cast Doom. Frankly, they're probably not worth fighting. However, if you do, be ready with Life1 (since they don't deal damage, Life2 is overkill—you can always heal up after battle), and hope they keep resetting Characters' Doom counters before they die.

Veterans (Ahriman to series fans) are Wound-dealers, often using Condemned on the first and second turns. They can also use Dread to inflict Petrify. They may counter Magic with Roulette, making them an effective Monster to learn that Lore from.

Elemental Vulnerability

Ahrimans are spellcasting enemies that like to hit the party over and over with Fira. They're not too hard to kill, and not really that dangerous, but the trouble comes because Imps can summon more of them. Therefore, despite Imps being less of an immediate threat, they should be taken out before the Ahrimans (who lack any summoning ability).
