Serac

Serac is a Mercury Djinni found in Golden Sun: The Lost Age, and is numerically the eighteenth and final Mercury Djinni found overall which makes it the eleventh found in The Lost Age.

Location
Serac is found in the long series of hallways in the portion of Islet Cave accessibly only with the Teleport Psynergy. It is hiding in an elevated statue and can only be brought down by an accurately positioned Tremor Psynergy usage. Interestingly enough, very rarely, players do not need to battle for this Djinn. However, most times it must be battled.

As an opponent
Serac has 920 HP, 86 PP, 290 Attack, 90 Defense, 257 Agility, and 29 Luck.

It can perform a standard physical attack as well as cast Ice Missile, Freeze Prism, Froth Spiral, and Megacool.

When felled it yields 1093 EXP and 706 coins.

Description
When Set, it increases base HP by 12 and base Attack by 3.

When used, Serac damages the foe with Mercury damage 70 points above the user’s normal attack damage and has the potential to instantly fell the target.

Analysis
Having the ability to instantly down an opponent can be very good. But the chances of it happening are very slim.

Name Origin
A serac is a block or column of ice formed by intersecting crevasses on a glacier. They are often house-sized (if not larger) but are unstable and may topple with little warning, making them dangerous to mountaineers. Even when stabilized by persistent cold weather, they can be an impediment to glacier travel.
