The Azrael is an enemy from Final Fantasy III fought in the Ancient Ruins. Like most enemies in the Ancient Ruins, it splits into two when attacked with a weapon that is not a Dark Sword or if the monster does not get inflicted with Paralysis. It is therefore recommended to take a couple Ancient Swords that can be bought in the ruins along to fight these enemies. They are not overly difficult unless the player forces them to split too much.
