Vile Mothers are Demons.
File:Grotesque and Wyrm.jpg
A Grotesque watching over its child
These grotesque creatures are nasty melee fighters, and worse yet, walking birth machines that spawn an endless stream of crawling, ankle-biting Vile Children. The only way to stop the mothers from spawning is to kill them, a task that most adventurers undertake with some relish.

Statistics
- The TC/Rune drops listed are the highest Treasure Class/Rune Group a normal monster of that type can drop.
- TC Champions and Bosses can sometimes drop from the next higher group.
- The max TC/Rune possible may depend on which level a monster spawns in, and can be lower than the maximum. See the item calculators to ascertain precisely what a monster from a given area can drop.

Defenses
- Regen Rate tells what % of a monster's hit points are recovered per second. Standard is 1.2/sec.
- Blocking values are assigned to every monster in the game, but the ability is seldom enabled, so most monsters can not block (Hence the blocking % given on most Diablo II monster pages, including Blizzard's, is inaccurate.) When enabled, blocking tells what % of successful, blockable attacks will not damage the monster. Monsters need not carry a shield to block.
- Drain Effectiveness tells what % of a character's mana and life steal apply to that monster. 100 is all, 0 is none.
- Chill Effectiveness tells what % of a character's cold length applies to the monster. 100 is all, 0 is no freeze/chill at all.
| Type | Defense | Blocking | Regen Rate | Drain Effectiveness | Chill Effectiveness |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flesh Spawner | 90 / 614 / 1278 | -- | 1.2/sec | 100 / 75 / 50 | 50 / 40 / 33 |

Resistances
- Resistances over 99% are listed as immunities and monsters will take no damage from that type of attack.
- Immunities can be "broken" by skills that lower resistance, if the value drops below 99%. See the Resistances page for more details.
