The Lamia is an enemy from Crystal Defenders. A medium-ranked enemy, they are very quick on the field and resistant to magick, so the best strategy consists of deploying and upgrading Soldiers and Archers.

Etymology[]

In Greek mythology, Lamia was a beautiful Libyan queen who turned into a child-eating demon. She is often referred to as having the lower half of a snake and sometimes a large mouth (lamia in Greek means "large shark", while laimos means gullet).

Later characteristics attributed to her are similar to that of succubi, in that the lamia seduces men, enticing them to feed on their blood. It is said they reside in towers or secluded areas and have magical abilities.
