An ethereal blue flame dances through the air, flickering and pulsing in time to an otherworldly rhythm.

The Will-o-the-Wisp is a magically animated little ball of flames. It moves erratically and will ignite flammable terrain it passes over but it cannot directly set another creature on fire. Its high defence can make it annoying to kill with weapons but it is generally not threatening.

Will-o-the-wisps will not burn scrolls on the ground unless the scroll is on flammable terrain.

Will o wisp

Will-o-the-Wisp.

Tactics[]

  • Because it is purely animated by magic, it is instantly killed by negation.
  • Because of its low health, it is easily killed with a staff of lightning or poison
  • Because it cannot cast spells, it can be safely ignored from a distance (depending on circumstances).
