This page is a work in progress. It has sections which are incomplete or currently under construction. If you have knowledge of this game or subject, you can either help by editing it to improve the page, or discussing it on the talk page.
This page needs to be split into subpages. grouped by level would be best Please add some links to the Table of Contents and split this page to separate pages.
Low-level monsters are a vital part of the game, as basically all new players begin by training their melee skills on such creatures, as they stand a better chance against them than low/medium level monsters. These creatures usually have bad drops, and it is advised that players move onto higher-level creatures for better drops and possibly better experience.
Please note that monsters that appear in several level variants will be all listed at their earliest level.
Chickens are farm animals. They are usually found in pens. Fred the Farmer has a decent sized chicken pen that produces enough chickens for an entire party to hunt. Unlike sheep, you will have to go toe to toe in mortal combat to get their products.

The rat, probably the easiest monster in runescape. They do not deal damage. If you have a kitten or cat, you can have it chase and kill these.

Imps are little red creatures who have the ability to teleport. If they do, don't worry; your character will automatically walk to where they re-appear. You need to kill imps to finish the Imp Catcher quest.

There are 2 types of giant rats: level 3 and level 6. They can be found in all the sewers of RuneScape and dotted quite a bit on the above ground in the free and members' world. They have 4-6 health and are quite easy to kill even for a level 3.
"Lesser, but still pretty big" They can be found in Wizard's Tower (caged), Melzar's Maze, Crandor Island, Temple of Ikov, Taverly Dungeon and The Wilderness (west of the Lava Caves) Aggressive.

The King Black Dragon, also known as the KBD, is one of the strongest dragons in Runescape.
It is all black, with a tail, wings, three heads, with two red eyes on each head as well as red nostrils.
Each head uses different breaths. All three breaths will deal heavy damage. The fire breath will lower your stats, the poison breath will poison you, and the ice breath will freeze you. When you are frozen, you cannot move. The KBD can hit above 40 hp of damage up close and from distances, as the breath is long ranged.
If you have protect from magic on, drank an anti-firebreath potion, and the anti-dragonbreath shield, you will absorb most of the fire attacks.
If you plan to fight it, it is recommended that you ALWAYS bring an anti-dragonbreath shield, VERY good armour, stat restore potions, antiposion potions, super sets, anti-firebreath potions, prayer restore potions, and VERY good food.

This extremely strong monster is west of the Rogues Den, in 52 Wilderness. He can use magic and melee. He can teleport you around his battlefield. Also, he can make you take off your armor and weapon and return it to your inventory. Beware, if you don't have enough room you will drop your armor/weapon on the ground!
Drops
He can drop the Dragon two-handed sword.

The Kalphite Queen is the third strongest monster in Runescape.
Usually you will need a team of people to defeat this powerful insect. In its first form, the Kalphite Queen uses a prayer that nullifies Magic/Range attacks, so concentrate on Melee. After you beat this first form, you must fight it again, except this one is a wasp that nulls Melee (which makes you use range or mage). You can also use Verac's Armor which breaks through prayer. Kill it, and it has a chance of dropping the Dragon Chain (Rumours say 1 in 40)
other notes:
bring 2 ropes, or have friends bring a rope and you bring one
have a very large team
bring good items, but not if they're extremely expensive and you have a chance of being killed
dragonhide works well on her, but not unless its blue or over.

Found in the TzHaar Fight Caves drop nothing the fire cape is gained on defeating him.
"This is going to hurt..."
He will attack with all three types of attacks. Staying at a good distance from him to prevent him from using melee attacks and switching between magic and range protect prayers while ranging or maging him is the best way to defeat the boss. Defeating him will teleport you out of the arena. Beware, he is very powerful and can one-hit all but the very best(90+ hp).
