In Valheim, players encounter a variety of creatures inspired by Norse mythology and the natural world, each adding unique challenges and flavor to the game's environment.
Deer are passive creatures found in Meadows and Black Forests. They are four-legged, reddish-brown animals that are extremely timid and completely harmless.
Leviathans are passive creatures found in Oceans. They are massive rock-type beings that have a 25% chance of submerging each time their Abyssal barnacles are damaged.
Hares are passive creatures found in the Mistlands. Mistlands hares appear much like real life hares, except for their valuable scaly hide.
Greydwarfs are aggressive creatures found in Black Forests. They are mossy tree-like beings and are twice as strong as their Greyling counterparts.
Skeletons are aggressive creatures found in the Black Forests and the Swamps guarding Burial Chambers and sometimes Ruined towers. They are, as their name suggests, human skeletal remains which have since been resurrected from the dead.
Trolls are aggressive creatures found in Black Forests. They are massive, bumbling humanoids with brutish limbs and wiry blonde hair. They may spawn with a large tree trunk in their hand.
Eikthyr is the first boss. He appears as an abnormally large stag with iron chains wrapped around his electrified red antlers.
Bonemass is the third boss. It appears as a gigantic humanoid mass comprised of toxic ooze, mud and skeletal remains, likely absorbed from nearby tombs situated close to its altar.
Moder is the fourth boss. She appears as a massive frost dragon with black scales, a white fur mane and tattered wings. According to numerous runestones, she is the mother of all Drakes.
