CRAWLS don't deal much damage, but they will Paralyze your Warriors and allow their BONE and R.BONE companions attack with impunity. Focus your attacks on the CRAWL first, possibly adding FIR2 to the mix if there is a R.BONE present. SLOW will severely limit the CRAWL's attacks, though it won't affect its companions.

Crawlers are my personal least favorite enemy in the game, narrowly edging out Mindflayers. Crawlers aren't there to deal much damage—they tend to do only 1 per hit—but they get 8 attacks, and each can Paralyze its target. In other words, if a Crawler attacks you, you're going to end up Paralyzed. They aren't tough to take out, but make sure you do so quickly. And don't hesitate to double- or triple-up attacks on Crawlers, since they will very likely Paralyze one of your attackers before he gets a chance to act.

Crawlers hit hard and cause Poison, and are tougher than you might expect for a World Map Monster. When left alone, they start using Raid and Dischord (one of the few creatures Strago can learn it from). They are vulnerable to Ice.

Of all the feral creatures in Chapter 5, Crawlers are the least interesting. They appear in groups like Frag Leeches, and have some more HP, but lack a nasty attack and have an exploitable weakness against Fire. Fira and Blitz will take out a group of Crawlers rather quickly.
