Unique Monsters (Diablo II)
From Diablo Wiki
Unique Monsters are stronger versions of regular monsters. They spawn with additional bonus abilities as well as a group of minion monsters. Minion monsters have the same stats as regular monsters, unless the Unique monster has certain stats it bestows upon its minions (listed below).
Unique Monsters are create randomly with each new game, and appear in random places as well. Their names appear in gold text, and almost all monsters can spawn as a unique.
Some Unique Monsters always appear in the same place each game, and have the same attributes: they are referred to as Super Unique Monsters. Bosses fall under this category.
