The Mad moai is a monster in the series.

Characteristics[edit | edit source]

Mad moais are enormous stone heads that hover above the ground. They try to use their immense size and weight to crush opponents alive. Their solid stone skin makes them hard to hurt and even worse, their ability to fire off blindingly bright flashes of light makes foes easily miss their attacks. The moais are also able to hurl stones at groups of adventurers.
