See [[Draft:Monster generation|Monster generation]] for difficulty pools, dungeon population rules, countryside tables and construction variants, and [[Draft:Summoning|Summoning]] for spell, item and creature sources.
Ordinary monster generation selects from a difficulty-dependent range and rejects templates reserved for special construction. Fixed maps, dungeon finales, summoning and historical characters use additional paths. A creature listed at level 0 is not necessarily harmless: the [[Draft:Guardsman|guardsman]] has far more HP and combat strength than many early random opponents.<ref>{{Source|lev.c|280|399}}; {{Source|minit.h|12}}; {{Source|gen1.c|394|431}}.</ref>

Countryside encounters expand a monster's awareness to the width of the encounter map. A missile user can therefore attack from farther away than the ordinary sensing range quoted in its article, although the ranged routine still needs line of sight and its other conditions. Arena opponents also receive expanded awareness.<ref>{{Source|lev.c|47|66}}; {{Source|env.c|63|70}}; {{Source|mon.c|33|42}}.</ref>

Being awake and being hostile are different states. A sleeping creature can awaken without becoming hostile. Special abilities have their own conditions, so peace alone is not proof that every nearby power is harmless; the [[Draft:Automatum minor|automatum minor]] is an example. Look up the actual creature before approaching, provoking or attempting to pacify it.<ref>{{Source|mon.c|12|70}}; {{Source|mspec.c|41|53}}.</ref>

Shared rules are covered in [[Draft:Monster attacks|Monster attacks]], [[Draft:Damage and immunity|Damage and immunity]], [[Draft:Monster behavior|Monster behavior]] and [[Draft:Monster movement|Monster movement]]. Lasting effects and losses have their own pages: [[Draft:Poison|Poison]], [[Draft:Disease|Disease]], [[Draft:Sleep|Sleep]], [[Draft:Fear|Fear]], [[Draft:Blindness|Blindness]], [[Draft:Immobilization|Immobilization]] and [[Draft:Level drain|Level drain]].
For transferring possessions and resolving encounters without killing, see [[Draft:Feeding and gifts|Feeding and gifts]] and [[Draft:Theft|Theft]]. These distinguish accepting an offering from becoming peaceful, and player pickpocketing from monster theft.
Monster '''level''' is a game parameter, not a universal difficulty rating. '''HP''' and combat scores describe the stated form; an arena opponent or historical resident can differ from the ordinary creature. '''Action interval''' is the delay between scheduled monster actions: lower numbers are faster. One such action can execute an entire tactical attack sequence, so it is not necessarily one swing.<ref>{{Source|time.c|47|74}}; {{Source|mmelee.c|24|51}}; {{Source|env.c|8|88}}; {{Source|mon.c|689|750}}.</ref>

Ordinary landed damage still costs at least one HP unless immunity prevents it. Secondary effects such as [[Draft:Cloak of negimmunity|life drain]] are separate from ordinary absorption.

== Monster spellcasting ==
== Monster spellcasting ==
Many creatures use a shared random spell repertoire. Their '''base level''' determines which spells are available; a name such as necromancer does not by itself add a separate summoning or undead-raising power. Individual pages distinguish this repertoire from special attacks such as a frost demon's snowball.<ref>{{Source|mspec.c|135|215}}; {{Source|minit.h|171|175}}.</ref>
Many monsters share a random spell repertoire determined by their base level. See [[Draft:Monster spellcasting#Spell repertoire|Monster spellcasting]] for the complete effect table, probabilities and casting conditions; dedicated attacks and summons remain on individual creature pages.<ref>{{Source|mspec.c|135|215}}.</ref>
 
The ordinary spell routine requires a hostile caster with line of sight. Nearby special actions normally have a 50% check, and some creatures also cast through their ranged action. Sanctuary suppresses either route. The following choices are equally likely within the caster's available range, after the player's resistance check. A level-2 caster has the first nine choices, a level-5 caster the first twelve, and a level-9 caster all sixteen. At level 10, disintegration occupies two choices rather than one.<ref>{{Source|mon.c|12|76}}; {{Source|mon.c|390|417}}; {{Source|mspec.c|135|215}}.</ref>

The damage figures are raw rolls or amounts, not promised HP loss after protection. Lightning and cold use a ball if the caster is immune to that element or farther than two squares away; otherwise they use a bolt. Balls can also affect nearby creatures, including the caster. Bolts that reach the player check deflection rather than an ordinary melee hit roll.<ref>{{Source|mspec.c|135|215}}; {{Source|effect1.c|245|433}}; {{Source|aux1.c|498|513}}.</ref>
 
Slow, poison and sleep counts normally decrease at game-minute updates, with extra checks during some longer advances. Disease and similar recovery counts normally decrease every ten game minutes indoors; countryside hourly advances also run these checks. A status count is therefore not one player command. Existing haste prevents this slow spell; it is not removed by the attempt.<ref>{{Source|time.c|19|23}}; {{Source|aux2.c|186|255}}; {{Source|aux2.c|340|445}}; {{Source|aux3.c|11|47}}; {{Source|effect2.c|432|448}}; {{Source|effect3.c|215|224}}; {{Source|effect3.c|770|811}}.</ref>
 
Item-magic removal skips ordinary weapons, armor and shields, food, launchers and several inert objects; cursed eligible objects resist it, and artifacts have an additional two-thirds resistance chance. Item destruction can affect equipped objects as well as other carried property. Disintegration removes a cloak or armor before checking bare-body damage; elemental immunity does not preserve that equipment. The level-drain spell directly reduces levels and HP, which differs from the separately checked life-drain attacks of some undead.<ref>{{Source|effect1.c|8|54}}; {{Source|effect1.c|118|156}}; {{Source|effect1.c|647|664}}; {{Source|inv.c|475|503}}; {{Source|effect3.c|323|397}}; {{Source|effect3.c|888|910}}.</ref>


=== Resisting a spell ===
=== Resisting a spell ===
Before choosing its spell, the caster allows a general magic-resistance check. [[Draft:Collegium Magii|College]] or [[Draft:Circle of Sorcerors|Circle]] membership can supply an earlier counterspell attempt when the two guild ranks sum to a positive value. If the counterspell succeeds and current mana is '''strictly greater than the caster's level squared''', that amount of mana is spent and the spell stops. Otherwise the normal resistance check still follows.<ref>{{Source|aux3.c|395|414}}.</ref>
The shared repertoire checks magic resistance before selecting an effect. College or Circle membership can provide an earlier counterspell attempt, with a strict mana requirement. The [[Draft:Monster spellcasting#Resisting a spell|full resistance formulas]] distinguish this from later damage immunity.<ref>{{Source|aux3.c|395|414}}.</ref>

All random draws in these comparisons are separate. Resistance happens before spell selection, so it can even prevent the caster from choosing recovery.

Monsters are the creatures and embodied characters encountered in Omega, including peaceful residents, hostile opponents and unique quest figures. Their symbol alone is not a reliable identity: several creatures share a character and color, while some change appearance during generation or play.[1]

This index covers the 150 creature templates in Omega 0.90.4, each linked to an independent public draft. Historical identities and generated forms are explained in their corresponding articles; the template count is not a count of distinct species or of every named NPC.[2]

Encounters and behavior

See Monster generation for difficulty pools, dungeon population rules, countryside tables and construction variants, and Summoning for spell, item and creature sources.

Ordinary monster generation selects from a difficulty-dependent range and rejects templates reserved for special construction. Fixed maps, dungeon finales, summoning and historical characters use additional paths. A creature listed at level 0 is not necessarily harmless: the guardsman has far more HP and combat strength than many early random opponents.[3]

Countryside encounters expand a monster's awareness to the width of the encounter map. A missile user can therefore attack from farther away than the ordinary sensing range quoted in its article, although the ranged routine still needs line of sight and its other conditions. Arena opponents also receive expanded awareness.[4]

Being awake and being hostile are different states. A sleeping creature can awaken without becoming hostile. Special abilities have their own conditions, so peace alone is not proof that every nearby power is harmless; the automatum minor is an example. See Monster behavior for awareness, pursuit, retreat and needs, and the actual creature for its specific interactions.[5]

Arena forms

The arena begins with a fixed sequence of creature types. Later matches can draw random ordinary creatures from the level-0 through level-8 template range, excluding the three dynamic NPC templates and creatures whose attack-damage setting is zero. The latter filter does not guarantee an actual melee sequence: a quail, for example, has a nonzero damage setting but no attacks.[6]

An arena opponent is named, awake and hostile. Compared with its ordinary template, it gains ten HP per base level, twice the hit score and half again the damage setting, rounded down. That damage increase can also strengthen effects such as poison. It is copied directly into the arena, bypassing ordinary starting possessions, and receives the exit-opening item. Its normal death reliably leaves remains. An ordinary infobox therefore does not describe the strengthened arena form; fixed opponents have comparisons in their articles.[7]

Reading creature data

Shared rules are covered in Monster attacks, Damage and immunity, Monster behavior and Monster movement. Lasting effects and losses have their own pages: Poison, Disease, Sleep, Fear, Blindness, Immobilization and Level drain.

For transferring possessions and resolving encounters without killing, see Feeding and gifts and Theft. These distinguish accepting an offering from becoming peaceful, and player pickpocketing from monster theft.

Monster level is a game parameter, not a universal difficulty rating. HP and combat scores describe the stated form; an arena opponent or historical resident can differ from the ordinary creature. Action interval is the delay between scheduled monster actions: lower numbers are faster. One such action can execute an entire tactical attack sequence, so it is not necessarily one swing.[8]

Information Meaning
Hit and defense Scores used by attack checks; defense is not armor absorption
Damage roll Raw damage before the player's applicable immunity or absorption; a rating of 20 normally rolls 0–19
Attack sequence Number and kind of attempted attacks, plus defensive actions; each attack must satisfy its own checks
Immunities Damage/effect types resisted by this creature; these do not automatically describe benefits from eating its remains
Carried items Possessions that can be dropped, distinct from a corpse or alchemical product created after death

Ordinary landed physical damage still costs at least one HP unless immunity prevents it. Secondary effects such as life drain are separate from ordinary absorption. See Monster attacks for incoming attack sequences and powers, Defense and protection for protection, and Melee attacks for player combat actions.[9]

Monster spellcasting

Many monsters share a random spell repertoire determined by their base level. See Monster spellcasting for the complete effect table, probabilities and casting conditions; dedicated attacks and summons remain on individual creature pages.[10]

Resisting a spell

The shared repertoire checks magic resistance before selecting an effect. College or Circle membership can provide an earlier counterspell attempt, with a strict mana requirement. The full resistance formulas distinguish this from later damage immunity.[11]

Remains

Monster remains compares normal death, food and special eating effects, quest evidence and alchemy; the following is an overview.

Possessions and remains are separate rewards. Normal death drops carried items, while an ordinary creature has a 50% chance to leave its corpse or other remains. Named unique forms normally leave remains on normal death. Destruction or disappearance that bypasses normal death need not provide either reward.[12]

Ordinary edible remains, such as bunnyburgers and trunk steak, each add six food-reserve points; one point is consumed by a normal hourly hunger check. Body size and a fancy food name do not increase that nourishment. Do not keep eating after you are full: food reserve above 48 causes vomiting and falls to 12. Eating while travelling on the country map also runs an hourly check, so the meal's nominal nutrition is not always the net change.[13]

Other remains may poison you, produce a special effect, provide little food or be inedible. A creature's own immunities do not automatically become benefits from eating its remains. Check the individual article before eating or taking remains to an alchemist. Likewise, edible prey are not necessarily hungry animals that can be pacified by feeding: living behavior and corpse effects are separate properties.[14]

Creature directory

Entries are grouped by their template level for comparison. HP / interval gives baseline HP and action interval; historical templates use variable values. Ordinary pool eligibility does not imply equal encounter probability or guarantee an appearance in every location. The special-placement rows identify a different generation route, not an additional ordinary pool. The elemental lords and Elemental Master occupy successive Astral Plane levels, with their listed Orbs as fixed possessions.[15]

Some forms need additional explanation: the nymph/satyr and incubus/succubus templates are displayed as n or s after ordinary construction, rather than their source placeholder. Their generated names overlap, while the corpse names distinguish the underlying templates. Historical officeholders and adventurers also receive their actual identity and combat values during construction.[16]
