General Data[]
Concept art of Booma and Gigobooma Origin
Characteristics[]
Gigobooma Origin are inexplicably linked to the Ragolian Gigobooma species that existed hundreds of years prior to the events of Phantasy Star Zero. A curious point about them is how they managed to travel across space from Ragol to Coral.
According to their bestiary entry, they are more advanced than their Booma Origin counterparts on an evolutionary level. It is unknown how Gigobooma Origin is linked to Gigobooma in terms of species or evolution although, despite the time period difference, their name could imply that Gigobooma Origin are an earlier form that evolved into Gigobooma.
The typical Gigobooma Origin resembles a pig with its elongated face and hoofed feet. The creature's pelt is light tan with a scruffy outer layer of fuzz that is light purple. On its face are two red eyes on the sides of its head with a long horn set in between them, and two small ears. Gigobooma Origin has a large mouth full of tiny, sharp teeth.
Unlike Gigobooma from the past, Gigobooma Origin is a quadruped that walks on four legs.
Activity Patterns[]
Gigobooma Origin travel in packs across the world and the moon. Although prone to attack hunters with a ram of their horn upon being startled, their range is very small. Until approached, they will mind their own business in their group scavenging for food. They are, however, easy to ward off with any means of weaponry and techniques.
