Bellring Games have named four things you fight. The game's own quest text names about a dozen more. A database read out of the game files carries 44, with no description attached to any of them. Those are three different kinds of evidence and this page keeps them apart, because a roster that mixes them reads as though somebody has seen all 44.
Not one enemy but the game's boss category, and the only enemy subject the developers have discussed at length. They said defeating Mist Lords on Cataclysm difficulty is the most common route to top-tier gear, which inherently requires strong PvE capability. Two of them are named individually in the quest text.

A two-phase boss added for the Steam Next Fest playtest, and the only enemy in the game with a published origin story — a failed forbidden experiment to summon a deity, carried out in Hallowgrove. The quest text calls the version you fight the Einherjar Cursed Moonwane.

The best-documented enemy in the game and the only one with concept art published alongside it — a slender build, a serpentine lower body and human-like facial features, in the developers' own words. She appears while the Soul Harvest ritual runs, disrupts it, and has to be killed to finish it.

The only enemy ever named in a patch note. The launch-day known-issues notice listed impassable areas in his encounter, which is the whole of what the developers have said about him. The quest Soul of the Wolfrunner sends you to kill him in Chaos mode.

Named in full by the quest Mist Lord's Power, which asks you to kill "the Mist Lord Otto, the Flesheater". That quest opens a line of its own, so he is a story target rather than a wandering spawn. Nothing first-party mentions him.

A kill objective in the quest Evil Purge, paired with investigating the Ancestor Tower. The name is all there is — no location within the map, no behaviour, no drops.

The quest Housecleaning asks you to kill some number of them, and the number is one of the sixteen that arrives as an unresolved format token rather than a figure. So even the quantity is unknown.

Two separate quests name them, one for the ordinary version and one for an Elite Greataxe Berserker, which is the clearest evidence in the quest text that the game builds elite variants of ordinary enemies rather than treating the two as unrelated.

The quest Retrieving the Gyldenblood asks for some number of them, the count again left as a format token. Nothing else names them.

This site separates what Bellring Games said from what somebody extracted, because the two are not equally checkable. On enemies that gap is wider than anywhere else on the game.
First-party. Four subjects, total. Mist Lords as a category, the Cursed Moonwane, the Soulgnawer, and one line about General Harald’s encounter being buggy. That is everything the developers have published about what you fight, across ten posts and two months. One of the four — the Soulgnawer — has a description and a concept sheet. The other three have a name and a sentence.
The game’s own text. The quest table names roughly a dozen more, because killing things is what several quests ask for. This is better evidence than it sounds: those strings came out of the game rather than out of somebody’s memory, and sixteen of them still carry the game’s unresolved format tokens where a number belongs, which is a thing a person writing up a fight would not reproduce. It is also thin — a name in an objective tells you nothing about how the fight goes.
Extracted data. A third-party database lists 44 named creatures with defence, block rate, chase speed, moveset counts and sight ranges attached. We enumerated that list from the page’s own links on 7 August 2026. What it does not carry is a description or a portrait of a single one of them, which turns out to matter more than it sounds — see below.
Every one of those 44 entries has real figures behind it. None of them has a picture. The icons are shared: the Blackplume Priest, Eeryl, the Foul Hound, the Lamplighter and the Clawslave are all served the same image file, and a hound and a priest cannot share a portrait, so that file is a placeholder standing in for unrelated creatures.
The consequence is specific rather than academic. You can look up exactly how fast something chases you and how many attacks it has, and you cannot find out whether it is the thing you just fought. That is the entire reason the creature players call the bird lady has no name after two weeks and a hundred searches: the data has numbers without faces, and the clips have faces without names.
Nine of the 128 quest objectives ask you to kill something specific, and they are the closest thing to an official enemy list that exists. Read as a group they say three useful things.
Elite variants are a real category, not a difficulty label. The quest text names both a Greataxe Berserker and an Elite Greataxe Berserker as separate targets, in separate quests. The Elite Captain is named the same way.
Chaos mode is where the named enemies live. The Elite Captain, the Underlords, General Harald and the Einherjar Cursed Moonwane are all specified in Chaos mode. Nothing is named as a kill target on Normal except the Greataxe Berserkers and Otto.
Even the counts are missing. “Kill N Underlord(s)” is how that objective actually reads — the number never made it out of the game files, and the same is true across sixteen objectives. Anyone who prints a figure there chose it. The full table, and what else it does not tell you, is on the quest list.
The 44 extracted names are worth having even without descriptions, because they tell you the shape of the game’s cast: Corroded soldiers, archers, guards and priests in several elite grades; Lizardfolk in three; Berserkers; Strawers and a Strawer Chief; Soulreaver acolytes and servitors; a Fungus Matron; a Tyrannical Executioner. It is a roster built out of families with elite variants, which matches what the quest text shows.
Two cautions on using any of it. The extraction is ahead of what has shipped in places — a value in the files is not automatically a fact about the game people are playing today, which is the same warning that applies to every number on this site. And enemy figures scale with the raid tier you queue into, so a single defence number is a number for one difficulty rather than for the creature.
No enemy on this page has a published drop table, a published moveset, or a published location more precise than the map it appears on. The one thing that would change that is the same thing that would settle the bird lady: somebody playing the game, with the name plate visible, writing down what they saw. Anything you can check beats anything anyone can extract, and the contact page reaches us.
Nobody can answer that from a first-party source. A database that appears to have been read out of the game files carries 44 named creatures, which is the largest count anyone has published. Bellring Games have named four things in total, so the honest answer is that 44 is the number somebody could extract rather than the number that exists.
The developers use Mist Lord as the category and have named two — General Harald and, from the quest text, Otto the Flesheater. The Cursed Moonwane was added as a two-phase boss for the playtest. Third-party lists add Sálmar, the Cursed Moonwane as a Hallowgrove encounter. There is no official boss roster.
Mist Lords on Cataclysm difficulty. The developers said so directly in the community AMA, adding that it inherently requires strong PvE capability. Holy weapons drop from map bosses specifically, with each boss carrying its own unique one.
No. Across all ten official posts the developers have named four enemies and described one of them in any detail. Every roster you can find, including the one on this page, is assembled from quest strings and extracted data rather than from anything Bellring Games published.
Because they are counting different things. One extraction of the game files underlies most of them, and sites then append community-reported entries to it or drop the ones they cannot corroborate. Two lists we compared carried the same 44 names in the same order, with one of them adding a 45th it labelled unconfirmed.
