Bovimastyxes are tame monsters that
look somewhat like small dinosaurs, leading to them often being called
dinos. They are the natural source of hides for making leather
ranging armor, and as such as considered a skill resource; I discuss
them in detail in their own
topic in that section.
These creatures are among the few
non-aggressive monsters in Daemonheim. Killing them is possible, so
I have put their combat stats here for completeness, but fighting these
critters is pointless. You do not need to kill them, and if its
hides youre after, you will get 2-4 by hunting them, while at
most one (and often none) if you hack them with your weapon.
These docile creatures have only
a weak melee attack and no confirmed resistances, though their hides
would, I assume, make them at least moderately strong against magic.
