Larvae (スペクト, Supekuto, Specter) is an enemy which appears in Suikoden.
These are the weakest and most numerous of the enemies encountered in Neclord's Castle. They should be a player's first target in battle to ensure their irritating little attacks don't whittle down HP as they battle the stronger enemies.
