Monsters

There are several different types of monsters you'll encounter in Quest for Glory, and all of them would be more than happy to make a snack out of you if you aren't prepared when you meet them.  Wolfgang Abenteuer, the guild master in Spielburg, can tell you a bit about these guys.

Name	Difficulty (1-10)	Description	Loot	EGA Image	VGA Image
Brigand	3	A grunt with a spear and shield.  Their band has been terrorizing the valley, and they don't want a Hero interfering.	5-24 silver
Cheetaur	7	Half man, half panther.  Watch out for those teeth.	1-10 Cheetaur Claws
Goblin	2	Easy when they're alone, but in their camp they'll attack you in groups.	0-35 silver
Kobold Magic User	6	The only monster on this list who doesn't bring you into the combat screen (EGA version) when fighting.  The controls are the same, though.  And beware--he's immune to magic.	Large Brass Key
Mantray	5	A flying stingray--don't ask how that works.	None
Ogre	5	The guard of the Kobold's cave is very difficult early in the game.  Build up your skills before attempting to cut him down.	1 gold, 43 silver
Saurus	1	The easiest monster to kill, but don't underestimate them when you're first starting out.	None
Saurus Rex	8	A saurus on steroids.  They can easily outrun the Hero, and don't have anything worth taking.  I tend to avoid them for economic reasons.	None
Toro	10	The minotaur guard is tough, even for a fighter with maxed stats.  Fortunately there are ways to kill him without entering combat.	50 silver
Troll	9	Trolls only come out at night.  They're tough fighters, but the payoff is well worth the battle.	20-49 silver, 1 Troll Beard
