Notes:

Located around the western ravine leading to Castle Zvahl.
They seem to favor Body Slam and Heavy Stomp.
Unlike the Dark Kindred, they do not have enhanced magic defense.
Either you *need* Treasure Hunter, or SE nerfed their drops. Killed 106 of them and ended up with 3 T.Shells and 1 O.Piece.
