==Slimes==
==Slimes==
Slimes are very basic monsters. They move slowly around the maze, and will kill Gil if he touches one without his sword drawn or their spells (for the red, blue, dark green, and dark yellow variants) hit him. Gil can kill any slime instantly if he crosses paths with one while his sword ''is'' drawn; however, it's still dangerous to cross a slime while it's moving towards you. Slimes are fairly predictable in that they will wobble just before they move.

==Dragons==
==Dragons==
When Druaga split the Blue Crystal Rod into three, Quox, a dragon who was inhabiting the tower, was split into three as well. Dragons are very difficult to slay without special items. Along with Ropers, the player can pass into a dragon without dying although if your sword ''is'' drawn, they can finish you off just like knights and ropers can. Additionally, they can breathe fire that will normally kill Gil unless the player obtains the Blue Necklace.

==Ropers==
==Ropers==
Along with dragons, ropers can't kill you if you don't draw your sword. However, they ''will'' also zap your energy down to 1 (except in FC version where they deal normal damage), making it impossible to fight them or any knights and dragons. If your sword ''is'' drawn, they can finish you off just like knights and dragons can.  By defeating a roper, Gil can regain some energy, however Gil must be holding Dragon Slayer or a stronger sword in order to defeat them (in arcade version only, in Famicom Gil can defeat them with any sword).

''Famicom version note: There are two more types of ropers, named '''All-Green Roper''' and '''All-Red Roper'''. Other than color, they are the same as other ropers.''
