The Armored Fleaman is an enemy in the Castlevania series. They are little Flea Men armed with an axe and shield, and protected by armor.
Description[]
An Armored Fleaman is a simple Flea Man clad in heavy armor and equipped with a menacing axe and a shield. After its armor is destroyed, which generally only takes one hit, the Flea Man will continue to hop around until it is also destroyed. This variant of the Flea Man was introduced in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, becoming a somewhat regular enemy in following titles. However, while in Symphony of the Night the remaining Flea Man can be immediately killed with a following attack after its armor has been destroyed, in following titles, it is given a few seconds of invincibility so it can move away from harm's way and still pose a threat of its own to the player.
It should be noted that Armored Fleamen and regular Flea Men are technically not considered to be the same enemies in the games they appear in; an Armored Fleaman may drop an item once its armor is destroyed, and when the resulting Flea Man is destroyed, it may drop yet another item.
Most Armored Fleamen will only hop around, but in Harmony of Dissonance, if Juste Belmont backdashes into a room with such enemy within one screen far away, the Armored Fleaman will walk close in a sneaking fashion until Juste stops or is within attack range.
