	~~They're old-school: starting in [[White Dwarf]]'s first [[Fiend Factory]] run, and entering the [[Fiend Folio]]. [[Paizo]] ported them into [[Pathfinder]].~~

	They resemble thin camels with 5ft long elephant-like trunks and covered in pale electric-blue fur, and their sole diet is magical energy, which they siphon up through their trunk-tips. In battle, they attempt to go after the most powerful magical item they can sense first, seeking above all else to touch it with their trunk so they can sap its energies. Casting spells at them is risky, because if they can intercept the spell with their trunk, they absorb it too. They can also drain "standing" magical effects like illusions or curses as well. What makes them even more annoying than rust monsters is that, whilst they can suck the magic out of magic weapons if they hit them first, they can't be hurt by non-enchanted weapons.

The only reason they don't get [[Kender]]-like levels of hatred is because this lore is about one obscure monster and tucked away in an equally obscure [[splatbook]], instead of being in the setting corebook.

			Pathfinder gets particularly annoying with their Disenchanters by making them out as these harmless big lovable lugs who are actually fully intelligent and Good aligned, and going on about how if your party gets mad at having their precious magic items destroyed and kills them, then they're a bunch of evil bastards. The only reason they don't get [[Kender]]-like levels of hatred is because this lore is about one obscure monster and tucked away in an equally obscure [[splatbook]], instead of being in the setting corebook.

			==Publication History==
			Disenchanters first appeared in [[Advanced Dungeons & Dragons]] 1st edition in [[Fiend Factory]] ([[White Dwarf]] #6), and from there the [[Fiend Folio]]. They were updated to 2nd edition in the Monstrous Compendium Appendix Annual Volume 3.

			In the AD&D [[Forgotten Realms]], Disenchanters appeared in the [[splatbook]] "Pages from the Mages" with a full bestiary writeup, but were also stated to exist in the Realms in several other splats, including Volo's Guide to All Things Magical, The City of Raven's Bluff, and the Forgotten Realms Campaign set.

			They were updated to [[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition]] in the 3e update of the [[Fiend Folio]].

			Their [[Pathfinder]] 1e debut was in Misfit Monsters Redeemed, and they were subsequently ported to the Pathfinder Bestiary 3.
