Efreet

From Aselia, the Tales wiki

Efreet (イフリート, Ifuriito^?) is the Summon Spirit of Fire, also representing one of the four cardinal elements of the Tales games. Efreet has appeared in several games of the series through spell summons and cameo appearances. Efreet is either opposed by Celsius, the Summon Spirit of Ice, or Undine, the Summon Spirit of Water, depending on the game's elemental system.

[edit] Appearances

Efreet is the Summon Spirit of Fire. Initially appearing as a wispy flame creature, Efreet has evolve to more of a crimson giant without legs.

[edit] Tales of Phantasia

Efreet appears as a ghost-like creature made entirely of flame. He is one of the first four Spirits that the party must face before they can meet Maxwell, the Spirit of Matter. A gruff creature, he tests the party and is pleased with the results.

Efreet requires the Garnet Ring to forge a pact, granting Claus F. Lester with the power to summon him in battle. When summoned, Efreet rains multiple fireballs down on the enemy.

[edit] Tales of Destiny

Efreet can be summoned through the consumable item "Efreet". Appearing as a muscular man, he arrives in a sea of flames before dashing from one side of the screen to the other, fist outstretched.

Efreet also has an appearance in the Playstation 2 Remake, where the Gentleman wearing the Klarth hat, the Gentlewakame (ジェントルワカメ, Gentlewakame^?), will summon Efreet when his Break Gauge reaches 100% in an attack called 「自負ニート」. Appearing as a sickly version of his Phantasia appearance, he releases some fireballs.

[edit] Tales of Eternia

Efreet represents one of the Greater Craymels and one of the Primary Craymels of Inferia. The Fire Craymel governs the use of all fire element spells. Efreet's home is the Efreet Gorge. Proud and haughty, he looks down on humans and considers his duties as a Greater Craymel to be more important than humans. Disgusted by Efreet's unwillingness to help, Undine forces him into the Craymel Cage, where the three Primary Craymels together summon Rem. Much like how Undine helps the party combat the intense heat of his domain, he in turn protects the party from Mt. Celsius's bitter cold. His appearance summons Celsius, who attacks out of fear and insanity.

Efreet can be summoned through the skill "Efreet", where he causes a massive explosion of fire which damages all enemies.

[edit] Tales of Destiny 2

Efreet is a cameo appearance in the Hi Ougi arte Flam Brave (フランブレイブ, Flam Brave^?). Efreet slashes all enemies with two streams of fire before firing a massive burst down the center.

[edit] Tales of Symphonia

Efreet, the Ruler of Hellfire, appears as a large, powerful entity and one of the Sylvaranti Summon Spirits. Residing in the Triet Ruins, he is the Summon Spirit of Fire. Once summoned through Summon: Fire (降霊召符・火, Koureishoufu: Hi^?), Efreet rams his hand into the ground to cause an explosion, similar to the Explosion spell, while raising the physical attack of the party.

[edit] Tales of Legendia

Efreet appears as a glowing ball of light only Grune can see, joining her after the party defeats the Dark Will Raynard. He then rests in Grune's urn as a seed, at which point Grune plants it in the Waterways.

At the end of the game, Efreet is born from this seed as one of the Summon Spirits bequeathed onto the world. Given his nature in other games, he is probably associated with the game's Fire element.

[edit] Tales of the Abyss

Efreet goes by two names in this game, one of which is the name Ifrit, a viable alternative, and the other, Efreet. Ifrit is mentioned in one of the texts of the library in Daath, with the name used to represent the third day of the week, Ifritday, within the world of Auldrant, as well as the fifth and eight months, Ifrit Decan and Ifrit Redecan. The spear "Efreet", however, uses his original name and names him the aggregate sentience of the Fifth Fonon, the Fonon of Fire.

[edit] Tales of Vesperia

After the Entelexeia Phaeroh dies at Phaeroh's Craig, the party uses his apatheia and turns him into a Spirit through the process of spirit conversion. Estelle names him Efreet, which means the Blazing One. Phaeroh's mistrust of humans is tempered as Efreet by his newfound sense of wonder for the world. Efreet is as hotheaded as his element, but he sounds more alive than Phaeroh did.

In the PS3 port, Efreet makes an appearance in Estelle's mystic arte Ultimate Elements. Efreet opens the arte by burning all of his enemies in an inferno.

[edit] Tales of Phantasia: Narikiri Dungeon

Efreet is the Spirit of Fire and one of the twelve Spirits which must be fought during the Ordeal of Spirits. He is found on the final level of the Cave of Flame and is the boss of that dungeon. Upon defeat, he teaches Mel and Dio the heart of fire: fighting spirit (とうこん, toukon^?).^[1]

[edit] Tales of the World: Summoner's Lineage

Fulein F. Lester can summon Efreet as a unit.

[edit] Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World

Though Efreet doesn't appear in the game, his home in the Triet Ruins is where the Centurion of Fire's, Ignis's, core is found. In reference to his position as the Summon Spirit of Fire, his name is attached to monster grimoires which teach fire elemental artes: Efreet's Hammer, which teaches Eruption, Efreet's Help, which teaches Sharpness, Efreet's Anger, which teaches Meteor Storm.^[2]
