Kactus Man

A Kactus Man is a training dummy for Strife!. They are notable for their entirely green color, and often used as joke purposes. They can only be encountered in Training, and have default stats akin to the player. While they do not regularly attack the player, they will randomly roam around the Training Island.
== Types of Kactus Men ==
=== Normal Kactus Man ===
Normal Kactus Men do not have any specialties. They are basic training dummies with 100% HP, 0% stun, and 100% of Movement, Defense and Damage, and cannot regenerate HP.
=== Ultra Kactus Man ===
Ultra Kactus Men have a total of 1,000 HP and are notable by their much brighter color. 
=== Jack'o Kactus Man ===
Jack'o Kactus Men are similar to how Normal Kactus Men behave, with no changes applied. They have a bright and glowing orange color, wears a Jack'o Lantern on their heads, and only appear during Halloween events.
=== Frigid Kactus Man ===
Frigid Kactus Men inhibits similar behaviors from Normal Kactus Men, but with 500 HP instead of the usual 100. They are blue, instead of green. They have first appeared in the winter event of 2023. 
== Other Appearances ==
* Black Magic has several Kactus Men in its game, especially in Sky Islands and Corrupted Sky Islands. They appear as part of the map's scenery, as opposed to being an NPC.
* Black Magic 2 has a dead Kactus Man in Sky Islands.
* In Shards of Genesis, a Kactus Man can be seen in Isles of Current. This Kactus Man can be killed or injured like any other Training Dummy.
== Trivia ==
* Kactus Men originated as a joke by speedydude900, who forgot to remove them when finishing training islands.
* The voicelines for the Kactus Men are taken from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. 
* The Kactus Men makes a cameo in all Black Magic games. Interestingly, all of their appearances in each Black Magic game are in Sky Islands. This could be due to Fenrier and speedydude900 being developers for Black Magic at the time.
* During the Christmas event of 2020, in Forgotten Hill, an alive kactus man can be encountered from its open coffin, in which it roams around aimlessly. Killing it will not cause it to respawn.
* Rarely, Kactus Men can "ragdoll" if enough force is applied to them.
