I'm not too sure about Borderlands 1 and 2 Eridians/Loot Midgets being in the Sandbox section, seems more like that belongs in the RPG/FPS sections.

We should probably remove the "Gold Golem" entries from Dragon Quest, as they miss two of the three criteria — they relatively common to find, and they don't flee from battles or otherwise escape. They're just worth a ton of gold. That's not enough to make it fit into the trope category.

• All the above references have Symphony of the Night's Flea Man to thank for being only found in one room, difficult to hit and simply refusing to drop its "rare" item.

Removed this ... what the heck? Flea Men are found in dozens of rooms, are impossible to miss, and continually charge at you. One of their drops is found sitting around loose in Olrox's Quarters; the other is not only worthless but also dropped at a much higher rate by another monster.
