Silver damage Edit
Creatures vulnerable to silver are called silver-hating creatures. The following creatures are silver-hating:[1]
- all V vampires
- shades
- all proper & major demons (i.e. excluding riders, mail daemons, djinn and sandestins)
- all i minor demons, except tengu
- all lycanthropes
When one of these creatures is struck by a silver item, it will suffer an extra d20 damage.[2][3] Unlike other damage bonuses, this extra damage will not be doubled by artifacts such as Grayswandir or Werebane.
