Kaliya
Kaliya
“A product of both mechanical and biological ingenuity, the solid steel aberration Kaliya was developed in the Aetherochemical Research Facility in Azys Lla to combat the dragon legions of Meracydia. This mechanized hydra could withstand not only attacks from razor - sharp fangs and talons, but also the white - hot flames of dragonbreath, and proved invaluable in the campaigns waged on the southern continent. So effective was the creation, the Allagans would eventually place one within Bahamut's metal gaol to guard the great wyrm.
— Encyclopaedia Eorzea Volume I, p. 26

Additional Information
The Kaliya is an early attempt to combine the strength and ferocity of a chimera with the durability and ease of control offered by a fully-automated machine. The creatures were first used in the Meracydian campaign, then deployed into Dalamud. The hydra-like design was most likely chosen so as to provoke their dragon enemies, one of many such tactics used in Allag’s war against the wyrms.
