Champion Monsters

Champion monsters are easy to identify because they will always have traits displayed under their health bars. Depending on the difficulty they have one, two, or three champion traits on normal, nightmare, and hell difficulties, respectively. These traits are randomly assigned and can be assigned to any normal monster. Champions have enhanced health and reward higher levels of experience. They also guarantee at least two magical items.
