Fun Facts:
1) The Roaming Naiads are water spirits living in Uladon Bog which are feared by locals. In Greek mythology, Naiads are nymphs inhabiting small body of waters such as springs, creeks, fountains and brooks. They are thought to be graceful beings skilled in singing and dancing.

2) Clan Shalo is known for their prowess in battles when they are in their turf, the Ulei River. Why not? They can all walk through waters with ease due to the "waterwalking" ability of their Feather Boots. Too bad, these boots are one of the rare and invaluable equipment that can't be steal from their bearers.

3) Clan Shalo probably got its name from "shallows." The fact that they made their base in the shallow waters of Ulei River greatly supported this idea.

4) The Doned Faction is a branch of "Clan Doned" which fame is ascending fast among the clans in Ivalice. This ragtag group of fighters hailed in Ambervale is probably founded and named after the brother of Marche, the kid Doned. Although, he is not yet qualified to participate in battles, but his skill in setting traps and ambushes on his brother's way before proved his undeniable talent in strategy.

All clans and monster groups are arranged alphabetically for easy browsing and quick search.
