Blighter
Picture
Databank entry
Small predator that shares close resemblance to the more common biter, but tends towards a more solitary, less aggressive hunting style.
1Olfactory Stalk
While the red-tipped protrusion on the blighter's head once served as sensory apparatus, it has adapted not to chase but to coax its prey into its path. As prey creatures are attracted to the dancing of the stalk, the blighter can dart forward to catch and consume them.
2Teeth
One row of sharp, piercing teeth is all the blighter needs to tear through its prey.
3Eyes
This creature has found little use for eyes in the deep, dark caverns it inhabits, and its eyeballs are likely sensitive to nothing more than broad fluctuations in local lightsources (eg when a meal is crossing its path).
