Nocturne
After a few days of not playing I picked it up again with the intention of killing the white rider. Took me a few tries. >_>
Attempt 1: Used the three demons which repelled/nulled his 100% instant death skill. They were the only ones I had that could do that and there was no way I could get to a cathedral to fuse new demons/buy old ones with the resistance. They were Kurama, Feng Huang(sp?), and Arahabiki.
After realizing arahabiki could easily stone the two minions he summons over and over again I did that. Fight dragged on for a while. Arahabiki and Feng Huang died quickly. I was able to stave off death for a few turns getting him to a critical state. 
He then killed me with a double bullshit attack. <_<
Attempt 2: Same approach died before turn 4. Realizing arahabiki’s weakness to fire is a deadly thing.
Attempt 3: Plan was to dimiss arahabiki after stoning the two imbeciles. This worked till i got double bullshited again, but it happened sooner.
Attempt 4: I realize he doesn’t seem to know Dekunda. o_O or maybe he won’t use it unless I lower too many of his stats? Anyway I decide war cry is an excellent technique to try and employ.
Attempt 5: i decide to try and bypass all this bullshit and bum rush him. >_> ended in failure.
Attempt 6: I realize he ALWAYS casts dekaja when I use even ONE buff. This allows me to eat up one of his turns. Thus he only has one turn to hurt me. I also realise that I need at least 3 surviving members to survive and spread out the damage from one of his attacks.
Attempt 7: Things go sour in the begining when my defense is lowered rather drastically. I still manage to follow everything through. Fight drags on for a while and I had several close calls. Got verrrryyyyyyyy close at the end when my turn waster nearly ran out of MP to cast the buffs. I managed to kill him though.
and then I finished off his stoned buddies.
I then quit for the day, because that was enough for one day. D:
Hopefully the other three optional assholes won’t be this bad. >_>
