Moldsmal

Moldsmal is a species of monster encountered in the Ruins and Waterfall. Its Hard Mode counterpart is Moldessa, while another version of it, Moldbygg, also appears in Waterfall.
== Profile ==
=== Appearance ===
Moldsmal bears a resemblance to and is described as lime gelatin, specifically lime gelatin mold. While it has no overworld sprite and therefore no confirmed color, one can guess from the mention of lime gelatin that Moldsmal is a light green color. In Waterfall, it is described as having a different color, but the color is unknown. One Moldsmal also appears as pink in the Mt. Ebott tarot card.
=== Personality ===
Moldsmal does not actually say anything in its dialogue; it only makes noises comparable to a slime. In its Check, Moldsmal is described as being "Curvaceously attractive, but [with] no brains." In its flavor text, Moldsmal acts patient and pensive, as it is willing to rest on the floor for a while and is described as ruminating.

== Trivia ==
* Moldsmal's name is likely a combination of mold (as in a gelatin mold, which Moldsmal looks like) and small (referring to Moldsmal's size compared to Moldbygg).
* The Moldsmals in Waterfall being stronger due to their different color may be a reference to several RPG games in which enemies are remade with new colors and enhanced stats.
* Moldsmal is the only monster in the game to appear in three different locations in a single playthrough: Ruins, Waterfall, and New Home.
