Snyads and mites are related dungeon dwellers who specialize in robbing larger adventurers, sometimes cooperating with their different abilities.  Mites are only 2’ tall and use a variety of traps to hamper their victims before pilfering all they can carry.  Snyads, or “pesties,” are 2-1/2′ tall and use their speed and dexterity to grab items and evade retaliation.  (C Bradford Gorby, from AD&D adventure “Mountain Sanctuary” by John Nephew, Dungeon 8, Nov/Dec 1987, featuring a number of encounters from the Fiend Folio)
