Editing Mite (section)

==History==
Good ol' [[Ian Livingstone]] introduced The Mite in January 1978 in [[White Dwarf]] #6's first [[Fiend Factory]] - unbeknownst to [[Gary Gygax]], who at the same time was crafting the jermlaine to plague his players in [[Drow trilogy|GenCon XI]] and possibly also [[S4: The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth|Gnome Vale]]. [[Fiend Folio]] joined the two in a throuple with the snyad. The Monstrous Manual in 1993 listed them all as fellow [[gremlin]]s, although the mites (like jermlaine, and implicitly snyads) are explicitly wingless.

The whole [[gremlin]] genus lost favour in 3e, so they didn't get an official writeup. Enter [[Frog God Games|Necromancer Games]] who brought 'em back for the first [[Tome of Horrors]] although as goblinoids, not gremlins.
