🛡️ Athenian Warrior
A spear-and-shield hoplite who fights at arm's length.

Fights on a guard cycle: he closes the distance, brings the shield up, strafes around you for a few seconds, and only breaks the pose to thrust.
The spear gives him reach — he can hit you from outside where you can hit him, so getting inside his guard means walking through the point first.
The raised shield actually blocks. Keep hitting it and his poise gives out — the guard break has its own sound, and that is your window.
Drops bones, and sometimes his Dory Spear and helmet.

Spawns in: Plains, in ones and twos. And in Athenian Ruins

🔴 Spartan
The same discipline with a sword, hitting harder and covering less.

Trained on the same guard cycle as the Athenian — shield up, circle, commit — but he hits noticeably harder with both swings.
His guard blocks; his attacks don't. The shield stays down through the whole swing, so the moment he commits is the moment he is open.
Shorter reach than the Athenian's spear, which means he has to come to you — and closing is when he is most exposed.
Drops his Xifos sword and helmet.

Spawns in: Savanna and Savanna Plateau, in ones and twos.

🦅 Arpy
A peak-nesting raptor-woman that sleeps on her crag until someone climbs too close, then hunts by falling out of the sky.

She doesn't chase — she stoops. She swings wide, climbs above you, lines the dive up until she is facing you head-on, drops, rakes you with the talons, and pulls up before she hits the ground.
The ones guarding a nest come armoured: tougher, better protected and hitting harder than the ones circling the peaks.
Takes cattle, sheep, pigs, villagers and soldiers unprovoked.
Drops Arpy Feathers.
Some dives end in a snatch: she grabs you in her talons, climbs high into the sky and lets you go.
Armoured harpies snatch more often. A full set of Spartan armour makes you too heavy to lift.

Spawns in: Jagged Peaks, Stony Peaks and Windswept Hills, plus the Arpy Nests

🕊️ Pegasus
The winged horse of the high meadows — it won't let you near it, and it won't let you off once it does.

Wild ones bolt the instant a standing player gets close and don't stop for a long way. Crouch or you will never get within reach of one.
Feed it apples while crouched. Each one it accepts warms it to you and improves the odds; a golden apple wins it over on the spot.
The moment it accepts you it takes off with you aboard and tries to throw you, high above the ground. Get the Athena Bridle onto it while it bucks and it is yours for good — fail, and it drops you and goes wild again. Put a Pegasus Saddle on it to ride it.
Sprinting is a real second gear. On top of that, Wind Surge launches it forward hard enough to become a battering ram: everything it plows through takes the hit and gets thrown aside (press R).
Heal it with food, armour it with horse armour, and open its inventory with your inventory key while riding. It can carry you through Nether and End portals.

Spawns in: Meadow, Grove, Jagged Peaks, Stony Peaks and Windswept Hills — always alone, always high up under open sky. Rare.

🦉 Owl of Athena
A bronze statue that wakes into a companion, and eventually into a second pair of eyes you can fly yourself.

It doesn't spawn anywhere. You find the statue, and you bring it a Bronze Core.
It bonds to whoever wakes it, permanently. Only its owner can command it, and it never lands on its own: empty hand to call it to your arm, again to send it back up.
It defends you on its own initiative, diving on whatever threatens you and breaking off before it chases into someone else's fight.
Athena's Ocular unlocks Athena's Sight: you leave your body standing where it is and fly the owl yourself. Attack to swoop; look at something and mark it so it glows for everyone. It refuses to activate while the owl is fighting or while anything hostile is near you. With the Owl in your arm, activate this power using H, right click for melee attack, left click for glowing targets, and middle mouse button yo use the sonic attack (Sonic Screech upgrade need it)
Sonic Screech gives it a screech that hits at range, staggers what it hits and throws it back.
Aim a spyglass at something far off and click, and the owl goes and kills it while you stay on the ground.
Heal it with bronze ingots.
Sneak + right-click the owl to leave it guarding the spot where you stand. It circles overhead and dives on any hostile that comes near (never creepers). Sneak + right-click again to have it follow you.
Sneak + right-click with the owl on your arm to fold it into a Dormant Owl item. It keeps everything: health, upgrades and name. Use the item to call it back. Fireproof, and only its owner can wake it.

Found in: nowhere naturally. It comes out of an Owl Statue, you can find some in Athenian Ruins

🐂 Minotaur
The bull-headed guardian of the arena beneath the plains — it roars once when it sees you, then closes the distance on its own terms.

Fixed opener: the moment it marks you it stops dead and roars, then charges if you gave it room. That roar is the only free hit you are ever handed.
The charge crosses the arena and sends you flying. Put a wall behind you instead and it rams the stone and knocks itself senseless — that is the punish window the whole fight is built around.
Up close it works a combo: a sweep, usually chained into a heavier second, and sometimes finished with either a shove that clears you off it or an overhead that comes down hard enough to break a raised shield outright.
Its horizontal sweeps can also knock your shield out of your hands.
Drops a Bronze Core and the Athena Bridle.
It hunts soldiers too, so an Athenian patrol near the arena is in for a bad day.

Found in: the Minotaur Arena, deep underground beneath Plains, Sunflower Plains, savannas and Dripstone Caves. One per arena.
