From the very first time you run into Tempters, you are going to despise them -- and that's too bad since they're one of the only enemies in the Old Sorceress' Mansion; you'll be seeing a whole lot of them. Now, what makes them so annoying? On almost every one of their turns, they'll use Soul Absorb to steal some of your HP; and unlike enemies you've encountered so far that steal your HP, these guys mean business. They'll steal 200-300HP with each go! Casting Force is the easiest way to deal damage on Tempters, but you'll probably have to follow it up with a physical attack to take one down due to their HP being, annoyingly, just higher than what Force will probably hit them for.
