A vile interdimensional predator that feeds on the life force of living beings. The few who have seen one and lived recall that it resembles an enormous, spiny moth. Its bizarre lifecycle involves the production of ambrosia, much valued by gods and wizards.

Useful Info

Ghost moths are speedy, invisible monsters with an MP-draining gaze and a stat-draining, strongly poisonous bite. As with an eye of draining, a ghost moth's stare causes you to irresistibly lose 5-17 MP. If you cannot see invisible, you will instead "feel you are being watched by something" (you lose the MP either way). They can be found in the Spider's Nest, Realm of Zot, and spider floors in Ziggurats.

Tips & Tricks

  • If you are invisible, ghost moths can't drain your mana points.
  • Ghost moths are an excellent reason to always have your see invisible intrinsic active. Keep in mind they fly faster than most characters run, so escaping without buffs is not an option. Should you choose to engage, poison resistance and a ring of sustain abilities will come in handy.
