There are numerous monsters all over the world of Sword Art Online. The vast majority of monsters belong to a certain Family of monsters. A family of monsters will generally possess similar traits and skills. In addition, monsters from within a family will generally share certain behaviors, weaknesses and drops.

Each family also has a Type, which generally describes a broad class of monster. Thus, the Skeleton is of the Undead type. Monsters of one type may possess certain advantages or disadvantages when interacting with monsters of another type.

Certain rare and notorious monsters also inhabit the world of SOA, and, if defeated, may reward the adventurer with rare and exclusive items in many cases.
