Vipers are a type of intelligent, reptilian creature that inhabit the area around the Volcano in Prehistoria.

Strategy

Vipers are not especially quick when walking, but can perform a high-speed rolling attack. The player's first encounter with Vipers is in the Mammoth Graveyard, where four Vipers attack with the Viper Commander. In the Volcano, Vipers are common normal enemies.

2 lone, stray Vipers appear in Gothica, in Ivor Tower Dungeon. Here they give the player 50 Gold Coins.

2 more can be found in the hall of Ebon Keep Castle as a security measure of Tinker Tinderbox. They don't respawn again from the glass after defeating them.

Player Improvement

Vipers have quite a few hit points, but will also reward players with plenty of experience and Talons. It may be best to level up with Vipers in the rooms south of the main lava chamber, where there is more space to maneuver.

Trivia

• There is a friendly Viper in the Volcano Water Pipes before fighting Magmar who will protect and speak when the player attacks them. He will offer to save their game after. According to this Viper, not the whole species was savage before, they were all once peaceful but the desire for power was too strong for them and ended up being controlled by someone.
