Monsters in Dungeons of Avalon are located on individual floor tiles. There are two types: random encounters, and fixed encounters.
Random encounters
Tile 05 in the map format is a square with a random encounter. It’s visible as
a mark on the dungeon floor if you look carefully. If you defeat the encounter,
the square will be cleared. If you flee, the encounter will remain, and will
re-generate a new random encounter when you leave.
A random encounter’s composition depends on the current dungeon level.

- “Groups” refers to the number of sets of monsters found in a random encounter on this level. It is possible to encounter multiple groups of the same monster type.
- “Number” refers to the number of monsters in each group.
- “Monsters” is the list of monsters which can be found in random encounters on this level.
For example, on DoA1 dungeon level 1, random encounter tiles will always give you a single group of enemies, and it will be either 1 to 3 Gnoms or 1 to 3 Worms. On DoA1 castle level 4, you will encounter 1 to 5 groups of enemies, each group will have 1 to 6 monsters, and the only monsters you will encounter are Green Dragon, Guard, and Hellworm.
fixed encounters
Tile 0a is a fixed monster encounter. The subtype is an index to a list of
fixed encounters. Each encounter has a set number and type of monsters, and can
have between one and three groups. It is unaffected by level.
