Mosswarts are humanoids from the same world as [[Drudge]]s, [[Tumerok]]s and [[Banderling]]s. In Dereth, they live in various swamps and marshes, particularly in the [[Blackmire Swamp]] between the Sho and Aluvian lands. They have also infested many ruins and damp catacombs. They are small, fight with claws, spears, swords and javelins, and are fearless when cornered. Some colonies also have magic-using shamans.<ref name=AC:DMBestiaryMosswarts>2001/11 [[Dark Majesty]] - [[AC:DM_CD_Lore/Bestiary/Derethian_Bestiary#Mosswarts|Bestiary: Mosswarts]]</ref><ref name=SageEncounter>1999/11 [[Release]] - [[Microsoft Zone Archive/Asheron's Lore/The Mosswarts|The Mosswarts]]</ref>

The first thing you'd notice would probably be the smell. Their senses are very keen. Their coloring makes it easy for them to hide among the plants and sneak up on you. Of course, you almost never find one by itself, they always travel in groups. Most Mosswarts are about four feet tall but Chieftains are almost man-sized, with skin more of a foul yellow than a rotting green. They're about twice as tough and strong as the lesser warriors. And they occasionally cast spells like the Shamans.<ref name=SageEncounter/>
