References

• Like many things that occur on the Penultimate Fantasy Airship, this monster is a general RPG reference. It references the fact that you can never go far in dungeons and fields in many games of the genre without having a random encounter with an enemy. For example, in the first Final Fantasy, there was even an area (which, thankfully, could be bypassed) that automatically triggered a random battle every time the party took a step!
• The monster image resembles the mascot of Square-Enix's well known Dragon Quest (known often as Dragon Warrior in North America) RPG series - Slimes.
• "They try and hit you, but for some reason just stand about ten feet away and make hitting motions" refers to many RPGs, where the monsters never actually approach you to attack, they just sort of make motions or flash and your characters take damage.
• This monster's fumble message refers to the children's book series A Series of Unfortunate Events. The remark on how the events are too unfortunate to describe is a mention on how the author, Lemony Snicket, repeatedly suggests that a reader should not read the book because of how unfortunate the events are.
• The monster's acronym is a general term for many irritating sights: ISoRE ("Eye Sore").
