Drackies are essentially bats, albeit goofy ones. They have large wings, antennae, two round feet, a long and thin tail, round eyes, and a fanged mouth that always seems to be smiling.

They do not look very smart or strong, though, much like [[Slime]]s, they are capable of becoming powerful creatures. Regardless, they are typically one of the weakest enemies in the games they appear in, usually a step or two above the aforementioned Slime in terms of strength. They are speedy, however, and can be difficult to hit with normal attacks.

Drackies again reprise their role as being one of the weakest monsters fought out in the field. The first monsters the player has to fight are Drackies, the group in particular harassing the caravan that would soon be under the control of [[Kiefer]].

The Slime takes a backseat as the player's first monster, the Dracky being one of the choices alongside the [[Platypunk]] and [[Mischievous Mole]]. They are rank F members of the Demon family and are essentially the weakest monster in that family, though they are fast and level up very quickly. Drackies can be scouted on Infant Isle, either inside the cave on the island or when traveling about outside during night.
