- This article is about the creature from Heroes of Might and Magic IV. For other uses, see mermaid.
The mermaid is a second-level creature, connected to the Stronghold in Heroes of Might and Magic IV. It cannot be acquired in-game, only added in the Scenario Editor.
Mermaids have a chance of hypnotizing their opponents, giving them control of their target for one turn. They are also immune to the Charm and Diplomacy skills.OffBck
Comments[]
Mermaids are the most common sea-based creature in Heroes IV, being far more numerous - and far weaker - than the sea monster.
Their Hypnotize ability can be dangerous, so attacking them with spells or ranged creatures is the safest way to deal with them.
Abilities[]
In addition to this creature's normal attack, its Hypnotize ability has a chance of taking control of an enemy opponent for one turn.
