The encounters in the Citadel of Trials are basically designed to annoy you, though there are fewer encounters that will just kill you than there were in the Ice Cavern. Mindflayers, the exception, are back in greater numbers, but only show up rarely. More often you'll fight large groups of tough Monsters with annoying attacks, like Horned Devils and Rakshasas. You'll also run into some powerful Undead, from Necrotaurs to various Mummies and the occasional Dragon Zombie. Medusas are the easiest encounter you'll find, and even they can turn your characters to Stone if you're unlucky. Keep in mind you can't run from Necrotaurs or Dragon Zombies. You can run from the Clay Golems guarding the Gauntlets, but they can be taken out quite easily with normal attacks.
