Polkir

Polkir is an enemy in Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia. This creature feasts on the precious memories of its victims.
==Origins==
This creature appears to be inspired by the Incubus, a creature from the Berserk manga/anime series. The Incubus is a small, cycloptic and tentacled spirit that induces nightmares and then feeds on the fear of its prey. It does this by grabbing the head of its victim with its tentacles and then using them to suck out their energy, just like it does in Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia.
However, since both the Metroid and the Castlevania series have been often compared to each other since the latter started implementing open world based mechanics, it is possible that Polkir's origins are also linked in part to Phantoon, an enemy boss introduced in Super Metroid, and which in turn also seems to be inspired in Berserk's Incubus.
==Description==
A palette swap of Nominon, which even if sharing some similarities, its attack patterns are different enough to require a different approach when fighting them.
Polkirs first float above their enemies and then unleash a powerful, incandescent beam straight down which then is tilted either left or right, depending on their target's last location, causing immense flames to rise along their trail.
They are remarkably weak, however, and a few strikes from most weapons are usually enough to put them down, making fighting them more a matter of precision than of sheer force.
They drop the Fidelis Polkir glyph, which allows Shanoa to summon a Polkir familiar to fight for her.
