Talk:Lich

I think all Liches could be on a same page, as they share most of their properties with themselves. I'd love to read about tactics against liches as well. Progo 10:25, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Huh?

A lich:

   * does not breathe.
   * has a head, a couple of arms, and a torso.
   * can regenerate hit points.
   * is poisonous to eat.
   * is undead.
   * always starts as hostile.
   * can pick up magical items.
   * has infravision.
   * never leaves a corpse. 

How can both be true?— Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.181.14.252 (talk • contribs)
