Ghoul enemy line

The Ghoul, Fiendish Ghoul, and Cannibal Ghoul are species of monsters found in Golden Sun and Golden Sun: The Lost Age. These monsters, resembling monstrous humans wearing broken shackles, are palette swaps of each other and have differing levels of power and defense.

Ghoul
A Ghoul is a light green member with brown pants and purple boots. Ghoul has 99 HP, 93 Attack, 20 Defense, 16 Agility, and 1 Luck. It is most resistant to Mercury Psynergy and has decreasing resistance values to Jupiter, then Venus, and lastly Mars, to which it is extremely susceptible.

Ghouls can attack physically and use the Monster skill Cannibal Fang, which damages a single party member, while restoring Ghoul's HP by the same amount.

Felling a Ghoul yields 34 EXP, 42 coins, and sometimes an Antidote. In Golden Sun, Ghouls are battled in Bilibin Cave; in The Lost Age, they are fought on Air's Rock and in Alhafran Cave.

Fiendish Ghoul
The Fiendish Ghouls are dark purple members with light purple pants and green boots. Only two exist in Golden Sun; both appear on the third floor of Crossbone Isle alongside a Lich. Fiendish Ghoul has 609 HP, 199 Attack, 45 Defense, 69 Agility, and 3 Luck. Some of its statuses are lower than Cannibal Ghoul's because, through the secret route to Crossbone Isle by the Tolbi-bound Ship, it is possible to fight the Fiendish Ghoul before its lesser counterpart. It is most resistant to Mercury Psynergy and has decreasing resistance values to Jupiter, then Venus, and lastly Mars, to which it is extremely susceptible.

Fiendish Ghoul retains its predecessor's attacks options, but also gains the monster skill Bacteria Rush, for enhanced damage to a single target, with the possibility of slapping them with Poison.

Felling a Fiendish Ghoul yields 87 EXP, 109 coins, and sometimes an Antidote. Like most of the earlier sub-bosses on Crossbone Isle, Fiendish Ghouls can be beaten easily by abusing Summons.

Cannibal Ghoul
A Cannibal Ghoul is a dark red member with purple pants and green boots. Cannibal Ghoul has 249 HP, 274 Attack, 82 Defense, 80 Agility, and 4 Luck. It is most resistant to Mercury Psynergy and has decreasing resistance values to Jupiter, then Venus, and lastly Mars, to which it is extremely susceptible.

Cannibal Ghouls has the same attack options as Ghoul, but can also use Ally Search to summon a new Cannibal Ghoul to join the fray.

Felling a Cannibal Ghoul yields 194 EXP, 160 coins, and sometimes an Antidote. In Golden Sun, they are battled in Suhalla Gate; in The Lost Age they are located in the optional Treasure Isle dungeon.
