Creature	Image	Abilities	Notes
Attrebus		Takes about 6 regular hits	Probably encountered as one of the guards in the palace. Unless you're observant, you probably won't even know you're fighting him. Essentially fights as an above-average guard.
Dram		Takes 3-4 hits before running Can cast spells Uses a bow in addition to a sword	Encountered several times, but runs away each time. Close quickly and attack as fast as possible.
Dwarven Robot		Invulnerable to attacks except on its Achilles heel Takes 5-6 regular hits Kills instantly if it hits you	Encountered once at the end of the Dwarven Mines. Must attack the back of its left heel to kill. Its wreckage supplies you with a needed dwarven gear.
Elite Goblin		Takes 4-5 regular hits	Slightly tougher than a regular goblin Not that skilled, but quick. Found only in the goblin caves area. Carries a random treasure (gold, potion, or torch)
Elite Guard		Takes 4-5 regular hits	Slightly more difficult than the regular guard. Fighting several of these at a time can be a pain. Try to isolate and kill one at a time if possible. Carries usually a few pieces of gold or, occasionally, a potion.
Goblin		Takes 3 regular hits	Not that skilled, but quick. Found only in the goblin caves area. Carries a random treasure (gold, potion, or torch)
Goblin King		Invulnerable to Normal Weapons	Slow, but packs quite a punch. Found only in the goblin caves area. Carries a large amount of gold. Requires careful thought in order to kill.

Mad Men / Pirates		Takes 5 regular hits	A number of pirates and madmen are encountered on various places around the island. The attack immediately on sight and within a certain range. The carry a random treasure of gold, potion or a canah feather.
Robot		Takes 4-5 regular hits	Rather difficult monster found only in the dwarven mines and steam pipes area. Assumes the form of a steel ball until you approach.

Skeleton		Takes 2 regular hits	Easy monster found only on the Isle of N'Gasta Carry 5-10 gold pieces or a random potion
Troll		Takes 6-7 regular hits Takes 3-4 hits with strength potion Regenerates after about a minute	Tough monster found only in the Goblin Caves You cannot defend against their hits so attack as quickly as possible Once dead you can torch their bodies to prevent them from regenerating.
Zombie		Takes 10 regular hits Regenerates after 10-20 seconds	Tough monster found only on the Isle of N'Gasta There seems to be no way to kill them, torching their corpse has no effect Is a very slow monster fortunately, so you can easily outrun them They do follow you around for a while before 'forgetting' about you
