Chapter 33
Warrior (1)
Monsters can be broadly classified into four categories.
1. Variants.
For example, regular goblins, goblin archers and goblin swordsmen. Theyre all of the same race, but have different classes.
2. Higher species.
The deathfiends Id met in the Land of the Dead belong to this category.
Note that this is a relative term. As long as the monster is one grade higher than the average of the current floor, its a higher species.
3. Rare species.
Monsters that can only be met in certain special places like the rifts, like corpse golems, or monsters that can appear in the general areas but are extremely difficult to find, like mimics, fall in this category.
4. High variants.
Named monsters, with unique memories for each individual, and individual names.
