Blightbulb

BlightBulbs are stationary enemies in My Normal Obsession that can be found in open fields during Blighted Moons. Based on both Peahats from The Legend of Zelda and the Harvesters from analog horror series Vita Carnis, they are large masses of flesh covered in a layer of Blight, making them more so resemble morel mushrooms. Hence the name "BlightBulb", their bulbs are bioluminescent, emitting a pinkish glow when in the dark. If left alone for more than 5 minutes, BlightBulbs will sprout into a more dangerous enemy.
== Behavior (BlightBulbs) ==
BlightBulbs often spend the duration of Blighted Moons sitting still, but can relocate if the player gets too far away from them. They increase the defense and maximum health of nearby enemies, and can wrap tendrils around the player if they get too close, incapacitating them and inflicting them with heavy Venom damage. They can also lift themselves up to spin sharp blades that inflict Gash, but where they start to become problematic is when they are killed, as they will spawn 4-7 random enemies with the Blighted Moon tag, as well as alert all enemies within a massive radius of the player's location. Unless farming Blood Roots, Luminous Membrane, etc., killing BlightBulbs is usually only necessary when they begin sprouting into BlightTraps.
If left alone for too long, they will become BlightTraps, which are much more dangerous.
== Behavior (BlightTraps) ==
As a BlightBulb begins flowering, it begins by growing into a much larger plant resembling a venus fly trap. These types of "plants" are equipped with a single eye, long "arms" that drag across the ground, sharp teeth, and two "legs". They are capable of firing large volleys of noxious seeds, grabbing the player, and erupting shotgun spreads of sharp vines from the ground. If paired with another enemy, they can easily become overwhelming, but they are incredibly weak to Fire and will become docile for a short duration if fed with Blood or Water magic. BlightTraps have mostly the same drops as BlightBulbs, with the exception of Marrowblooms, the Scavenger, and the Stinging Nettle curse.
