You've seen 'em, you love to kill 'em, they're... the stock monsters! Those generic baddies seen in nearly EVERY RPG you've ever played. At least a few of them are bound to show up within the game, whether you want them there or not. Let's get started introducing, shall we?
We have...
* [[Blob Monster|Slimes]]: Amorphous, often translucent blobs. Tend to have some type of water resistance if the game uses [[Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors]]. Usually [[The Goomba|the weakest monsters in the game]], but get the upgrade of [[Metal Slime]]. Usually has a lot of [[Underground Monkey

* [[Giant Spider|Spiders]]/Insects: Giant or otherwise, may or may not attack in swarms, often have some type of poison effects available to them.
* [[Combat Tentacles|Tentacled Horrors]]: Giant or otherwise, includes octopi and squids, as well as [[Cosmic Horror|demons with tentacles]].
* [[Our Goblins Are
* [[All Myths Are True|Mythological Beasts]]: Chimeras, basilisks and cockatrices, oh my. These will usually have at least some properties they're 'supposed to have,' i.e., basilisks will have some sort of 'petrification' attack, and chimeras will be [[Biological Mashup|made of various animals]].
** Humanoid: Werewolves, wereboars, werebears, weresharks, whatever floats your boat. These guys are almost human. Almost.
** [[Our Dragons Are Different|Dragons]]: Gotta slay 'em to save the princess, after all. Or maybe they're guarding treasure. Or maybe you [[Breath of Fire|are one.]] [[Blue Dragon|Perhaps your]] [[Mon]] [[Blue Dragon|is one.]] They may or may not be firebreathing, but if they are, they're probably fire resistant, or whatever element they're associated with.
* [[Mecha
* [[The Undead]]: When fighting these, just remember-- [[Revive Kills Zombie
* [[Elemental Embodiment|Elementals]]: Earth! Fire! Wind! Water! (Sadly, [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?|no Heart]].) Will always use an attack that matches their element, and thus can easily be countered with some attack of the opposite element. [[Poor Predictable Rock]]...
* Real Life Animals: [[Attack of the
** Don't forget the [[Goddamned Bats]].
** It's not an RPG without [[Rodent of Unusual Size|giant rats]].
* [[Mooks|Humans:]] Soldiers, ninjas, monks, witches, bandits, pirates, and so on.
* [[Smash Mook]]: Any creature, that is big and tough, but does nothing other than try to smash the hero(es) really hard. Ogres, Trolls, and Giants usually fall into this role.
* [[Golem
* Demons and Devils. These range from [[Eldritch Abomination
* [[Underground Monkey]]: Any of the above specially adapted to a certain environment. Even if it seems they shouldn't be there (we're looking at ''you'', Fire Squid!).
