This fearsome beast is the Drill Mole, an unusual biomonster that wrecked havoc in the Motavian countryside. Most biomonsters are solely the products of genetic engineering, but this one seems to have resulted from some cybernetic experiments as well. Claws tipped in steel and a mechanical drill device attached to the mole's forehead give it remarkable power. The Drill Mole was one of the deadliest and most brazen of the monsters roaming Motavia. Most of them remain outside the borders of towns, but the Drill Mole is known to have wiped out at least one village entirely. Unfortunately for the monster, Rudo's wife and child were among the victims there. In this scene, Rudo has finally succeeded in tracking the creature back to a treasure filled nest.

Maybe Myew androids had the same mix of cybernetic experiments with some genetic engineering. To me, they look like a cybernetic biomonster (an android version of Nei or Myaw).

Mole enemies also appear in PSIV from memory. Moles also made an appearence in PS0 on the DS but they had a very long nose that looked flower shaped at the end.

I'd say that's possible. There were some cat-woman hybrid biomonsters in PSIII and Mieu certainly has some cat like qualities. The Mieu style androids could be an attempt to replicate or convert those cat-woman hybrids.

I had forgotten the ones in PSIV, so I had to go check and see if they looked anything like this. :lol:

For a moment I was wondering if the Drill Mole inspired something in PSIV as happened Hugh's adventure game. But it turns out the moles aren't very similar, other than being moles. They look smaller and don't have anything on the head or nose.
