In addition to yourself, the Mazes of Menace are occupied by monsters. You may attack any monster you come across, but beware! they may retaliate. Monsters may be tame, peaceful or hostile. Upon death, monsters may leave useful things, including their corpses. The many species of monsters are also grouped into monster classes, corresponding to their ASCII symbols.

In addition to this list, several online bestiaries also exist^[1].
