The humanoids are those monsters that are not quite human enough to be represented by a @ but nonetheless appear much as humans. Most humanoid monsters are capable of wearing armor and wielding weapons as long as they are of an appropriate size to do so

• h, master mind flayer
• H, giant
• H, stone giant
• H, hill giant
• H, fire giant
• H, frost giant
