Behemoth is the mighty magical monster of Vulcan-O Valley, and the guardian to the portal into Fantasia. He keeps the last piece of Magicite. His ability is Charge, which speeds up Behemoth to spin racers out or potentially give them a level 3 crash while they're spinned out. He drives the Behemo-Buggy 99. His theme is a remixed version of the cave theme from Final Fantasy III.
Chocobo GP[]
Ben is a playable character, joining the party in the story after Chapter 3, Episode 1. He works alongside Titan as a construction worker in Monster Village, the two having grown up together as childhood friends. He is depicted as a hothead and quick to anger, though after losing, he calms down. At the end of the game, he continues to work with Titan in hopes of better adjusting his attitude. He joins the party to find his life's calling after some self-reflection with no apparent wish in mind. His Ride is Wild Horn, a tread tank and his ability is Aura where he hops off of his ride and begins running on foot while wreathed in an aura, moving at high speeds while knocking away anyone he collides with. His outfit from Chocobo Tales can also be purchased from the Ticket Shop.
Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo Tales[]
Behemoth render.
Behemoth lives in the caverns of Mt. Magma, and is ensnared under Irma's control by her Black Crystal to act as an obstacle against Chocobo. While under her control, he spoke with terrible grammar, stringing together sentences like "Me am victory" (of which Shirma points out). Once he is free of her influence though, he proves to be quite eloquent and articulate, speaking in a somewhat English accent.
Etymology[]
Behemoth is a beast mentioned in Job 40:15–24. In addition to mythological creatures, it is likened to dinosaurs, especially sauropods, as well as elephants, hippos, rhinos, and bison. Metaphorically, the term behemoth denotes "an extremely large or powerful entity".
