Catablepon

Catablepons are monsters that look like green bulls ready to charge found on the third level of the Stronghold of security. They use Weaken to drain strength by up to 15% of their opponent's maximum level. It should be noted that they can attack and cast weaken at the same time. They also seem to have an unusually high drop rate for clue scrolls. In the northwestern most room of the third level, there is an excellent safe spot for using magic, ranging or using a halberd on Catablepons, to the immediate west of the square patch of tendrils by the skeletons.

 * Catablepons are based on a mythical Ethiopian creature called a Catoblepas.
