Oblivion - 25 creatures to find and kill

Eviscerate the finest beasts to roam the lands

Words: Leon Hurley, PSM3 UK

Kill… Goblins

Not the sharpest tools in the box, but include warriors with crude armor, shamans and powerful warlords. They have a far-reaching leaping attack which makes fighting them unpredictable.

Kill… Skeletons

Found in the ruins and dungeons where they died. Can be tough to kill, considering them being dead already. They wield swords or bows and Skeleton Champions summon a bony bodyguard.

Kill… Zombies

Basically a big, walking disease, they carry many infections and are formidable enemies. The Dread Zombie in particular regenerates health faster than you can hurt it. You’ll need strong magic.

Kill…Trolls

Surprisingly fast, with lethal hammering fists, these creatures are best fought by climbing something and battering from above. They do have a huge weakness to fire which can be exploited.

Kill… Ghosts

Even the weakest specters are immune to conventional attacks. You’ll need magic or silver weapons to hurt them. And in one mission, the spirit of a victim you vanquish comes back for revenge.

Kill… Minotaurs

Those huge horns mean these guys don’t need weapons. They still carry them, though - usually massive axes or hammers - to complement a headbutt attack. Minotaur Lords are even scarier.

Kill… Liches

Necromancers who’ve transformed themselves into undead creatures, they use a lot of spells and resist many magical attacks. They also summon other undead to fight for them.

Kill… Spriggans

The sexiest trees you’ll meet, Spriggans live mostly in forests and don’t like their habitat being disturbed. They’ll summon bears to help out as they stab you with their fingers - all with a girlish giggle.
