The fastest creature in {{hommroe}} is the [[Archangel]] with a speed of 18. In the first [[expansion]] {{ab}} and later in {{sod}}, the fastest creature is [[Conflux]]'s [[Phoenix]] with a speed of 21. The slowest creatures with a speed of 3 are [[Dendroid Guard]]s, [[Dwarf|Dwarves]], [[Stone Golem]]s and [[Walking Dead]]. Additionally, the {{ab}} expansion introduced [[Peasant]]s, who have a speed of three. The verbal descriptions are listed in the table on the right. Curiously enough, none of the creatures have a speed value of 20 which would be described as ''super fast''. | The fastest creature in {{hommroe}} is the [[Archangel]] with a speed of 18.

Additionally, [[Brissa]], [[Cyra]] and [[Terek]] have Haste as their hero specialty, which means that they can cast Haste with increased effect, based on their level compared to the level of the target creature stack. [[Loynis]] has Prayer as specialty, which works in a similar way. There is no hero that has Slow as their specialty. | Additionally, [[Brissa]], [[Cyra]] and [[Terek]] have Haste as their hero specialty, which means that they can cast Haste with increased effect, based on their level compared to the level of the target creature stack.

In the best case, the maximum speed bonus from all these modifiers is +16, or +7 in the first round of combat before the spells can be cast. A stack of Phoenixes led by Sir Mullich on their native terrain and with the best magical help available would therefore get a speed of 37. In similarly favourable conditions, the slow Dendroid Guards would get a speed of 19, making them tied with [[Azure Dragon]]s or [[Archangel]]s (which have the same native terrain). | In the best case, the maximum speed bonus from all these modifiers is +16, or +7 in the first round of combat before the spells can be cast.
