The Narcoleafer


/ˈnɑr.koʊ.liː.fər/


A predator natural to the Twilight Grove, the Narcoleafer resembles a vibrant parrot in form. It's made out of a smattering of plants and tree bark, allowing it to blend in seamlessly with the surrounding flora.

Nacroleafers are dangerous predators because of their solitary nature; they use their colourful appearance to lure their prey. The Nacroleafer emits a hypnotizing and fragrant toxin mimicking a prey's favourite smell. Their docile nature makes it seem like they are vulnerable when caught by surprise, but in reality, they are very resilient creatures; regenerating damaged parts rapidly allows them to fly away from adversaries quick enough.

Nacroleafers reproduce asexually; they split into pieces over a while (usually in a place where pieces can be stored together), and over time, when a Narcoleafer has gathered enough resources -- mostly comprised of other plants, dead animals, and insects -- the resources join together with the Narcoleafer pieces to produce an offspring.

Many an adventureer has fallen prey to a Narcoleafer. Pompous adventureers often underestimate its ability to make creatures vulnerable via its toxin, leading to many deaths that could have been avoided via careful planning.
