They only do what their creator tells them to do. If you have a Sanctuary built for a particular god, you might be able to use that god's monster as a defense of the city. Cyclops This one-eyed brute is the apple of Zeus' eye. Kraken Poseidon counts the Kraken, a horrible sea creature, among his favorite things. Cerberus This three-headed hound of the Underworld is Hades favorite pet. Medusa This snake-haired woman, who is frequently a minion of Demeter, turns all who look at her into stone. Hydra This multi-headed creature likes to bite and sting. When he's not pursuing his own interests, he works for Athena. Caldonian Boar This monsterous boar likes to impale people with his tusks. Artemis is his master when he isn't attacking something of his own free will. Scylla Another in a long list of multi-headed creatures, Scylla obeys Apollo when she isn't pursuing her own agenda. Dragon The fire-breathing Dragon is one of Ares' favorite instruments of war. When Ares doesn't have anything for the Dragon to do, the Dragon finds his own trouble. Talos Hephaestus made Talos from bronze. Though he owes his existence to Hephaestus and obeys him, Talos still has a mind of his own. Hector A great Trojan warrior, Hector frequently can be found in the service of Aphrodite. Ever an independent spirit, he also follows his own battle plan. Minotaur Half-man, half-bull, but all trouble, this beats often does Hermes' bidding. Maenad When whipped into a frenzy, this mad-woman tears people apart with her bare hands. She is a card-carrying member of the cult of Dionysus, but she can also act alone. -- Added in "Poseidon" Expansion Pack -- Sphinx Known for her difficult riddles, th Sphinx is part woman and part lion - a deadly combination to be sure. When she isn't wreaking havoc of her own volition, she follows Hera's orders. Chimera With Typhon as a father and Echidna as her mother, Chimera's pedigree is impeccable. Her sense of destruction is also well-refined. She's more than willing to attack on her own, but also does Atlas' bidding. Echidna The mother of monsters (Sphinx, Chimera, Cerberus, and Hydra), Echidna has the face of a nymph but the body of a serpent. Headstrong, Echidna reports to no one; she always acts on her own. Harpies This foursome of fearsome sisters is bent on destruction. No one would dare order the Harpies around, not even a god. =========================================================================== When Monsters Attack =========================================================================== Sorry to disappoint you, but this is not another FOX special. When a creature runs wild in your city and is destroying it, you must seek the help of a "Hero". To do so, you will need to build a Hero's Hall for that Hero. Once you do that, your city must meet the requirements for that Hero. They can be found by right-clicking on the Hall. [See note below.] Here is a list of the Heros you can use during the game, along with their requirements for their Halls. Hercules One of Zeus' sons, Hercules' feats of strength are well known throughout Greece. If you have a problem with Berberus or Hydra, Hercules is your man.
