Goblin
Fire
Small, cunning creatures that attack in groups. Goblins are individually weak but dangerous in numbers, using ambush tactics and crude weapons to overwhelm unprepared travelers.
Harpy
Lightning
Flying creatures with razor-sharp talons that swoop down to snatch prey. Harpies use their aerial advantage to attack from above and can sing enchanting songs to put adventurers to sleep.

Eye attacks
A towering one-eyed giant that wields massive clubs. The Cyclops is slow but devastatingly powerful. Targeting its single eye can stagger it and create openings for sustained damage.
Griffin
Fire
A majestic beast with the body of a lion and wings of an eagle. Griffins can take flight to escape danger and dive-bomb targets. Setting their wings ablaze forces them to the ground.
Ogre
Ice
A brutish, hulking monster that attacks with wild, powerful swings. Ogres become enraged when they spot female characters, increasing their aggression but also making them more reckless.
Medusa
Severing the tail
A serpentine creature whose gaze can turn adventurers to stone. Medusa slithers through dark ruins, using her petrifying stare and venomous attacks. Striking from behind avoids her deadly gaze.
Minotaur
Ice
A powerful bull-headed beast that charges with devastating force. Minotaurs are relentless attackers found in labyrinthine ruins, using their horns and brute strength to gore anything in their path.
Sphinx
Solving riddles
A mysterious creature that poses riddles to adventurers. The Sphinx rewards correct answers with valuable treasures but punishes failure. It is one of the most enigmatic encounters in the game.
Drake
Ice / Glowing heart
A lesser dragon that breathes fire and commands smaller creatures. Drakes have a glowing weak point on their chest that must be targeted to deal significant damage. They can also possess Pawns.
Draconite
Holy / Glowing heart
