Heroes 5 - Haven Creatures: Peasant - The peasants are the basic infantry of the Holy Griffin Empire. Though weak and poorly trained, they are numerous. Peasants are an important source of revenue for their masters. Peasants are amongst the weakest level 1 creatures, if not the weakest, returning to their glory days of Heroes 1 and 2. Their only saving grace is their Taxpayer ability, and their minimal cost, as they falter in all other areas.
