 Steropes
Steropes was one of the three Cyclopes, a race of Titans who had one eye in the middle of their forehead in Greek mythology.
Due to their father's (Uranus) fear of losing his rule over his sons, the Cyclopes, as well as the other Titans and the Hecatonchires, (monsters with fifty heads and one-hundred arms each) were trapped inside Gaia, their mother.
But he could not escape his fate and Zeus, one of his sons, was able to grow up; being secretly raised by Amaltheia Zeus released Steropes (as well as the others, like Brontes and Arges) when Zeus battled against the Titans.

The ghosts of Brontes, Steropes, and Arges are said to dwell in Mt. Aetna, an active volcano that smokes as a result of their burning forges.

 IGN Boards - Monster Arena is fun till you get to rank B
I like Steropes better than Talos because his normal hits are just as strong but he can also do a desperate attack, which is what he did right away to the liquid metal slime.
I still won because Steropes was able to do a desperate attack on the liquid metal slime and then Skeletoid was able to attack twice a lot of the time and kill off the rest of Morrie's team.
They really have no use outside of the arena, and have so small HP/attack they are useless once their MP is used up.
