The Meer Warrior is a quick, lightly built Meer fighter: only 52–60 hit points, but 186–200 Dexterity and 12–19 damage. It punishes anyone who attacks it from far away. The Meer (a Lord Blackthorn's Revenge race) have good karma and fight only the evil: they attack creatures and players with negative karma and leave good-karma players alone.

Overview

• In-game name: a meer warrior
• Corpse: a meer corpse
• Behavior: it attacks creatures and players with negative karma (evil) on sight, ignores everyone else, and fights in melee.
• Bard skills: it can't be provoked, calmed with Peacemaking or discorded.
• Notoriety: it shows as innocent (blue). Whether attacking it affects your own standing hasn't been checked.
• Rummages corpses: from time to time it takes a random item from a corpse within 2 tiles (*rummages through a corpse and takes an item*). Loot your kills quickly near one.

Abilities

Spear throw

When something more than 7 tiles away damages it for more than 3 points (and doesn't kill it), it throws a spear back. The spear hits 1 second later for 20–30 damage.

Loot

Every meer warrior carries:

• Gold: about 30–75 in total (from its "Meager" loot)

It may also carry:

• A magic weapon, armor piece or shield (up to 2 chances, from about 1% down to 0.2% each)
• A musical instrument (about 0.1% or less)

Carving

There's nothing to carve from its corpse.

Tips

• Archers and mages: fight it from within 7 tiles, or expect a spear back every time you hit.
• Attacking one makes you a criminal (it shows blue), and killing it costs karma: it has +5,000 karma.
• Meer captains nearby heal injured warriors every 10–15 seconds.
• It rummages through corpses, so loot your kills before it reaches them.
