Litterjoy

== Description ==
=== Appearance ===
Litterjoys (litt-UR-joy) are arachnid creatures with shells. This creature also has sharp pincers to chop down their meals. But the most talented thing about this creature is with its orange and yellow colored shell, it can hypnotise any other creatures or humans. This hypnosis lasts about 30 seconds (depending on how many flowers it has eaten), and either the confused creature turns to the side of good for that time, or the (more experienced) litterjoys can control it. 
=== Diet ===
Litterjoys mainly feast on flowers, and sometimes even pifgligs. This is one of the reasons pifgligs have a rivalry with the psychic bug trio. Also, the more nutrients per flower equals a longer time that they can hypnotise opponents. Litterjoys eat flowers for two reasons. #1: Flowers taste good to them. #2: It is theorized to give them there hypnotism powers. 
=== Habitat ===
Litterjoys can live in any place with lots of greenery, but they prefer shallow forests. Litterjoys spend most of the day outside getting exercise and finding food, but at night, they stay in hollow tree trunks. Sometimes, if a litterjoy is in a dangerous situation, it will dig down about two feet and then stay there the night. However, this might also lead to trouble. Sometimes they will tunnel into a prasher hole and become a prasher's dinner.
=== Friends/Enemies ===
Litterjoy is in the psychic bug trio, and like all the other members in it's trio, it is on the good side. Both litterjoys and lotterjoys like to spend time outside with spacerins. They make for good companions. Litterjoys are able to undo the effect of hypnosis on friends like spacerins. They are prey to blookan and are avoiding them at all times. Litterjoys sometimes have to dig underground to move away from getting squished under one of a blookan's six feet.
== Lore ==
=== Origin ===
It isn't completely clear how they were created, but Evernary claims to not have made them. It is very possible, like theorized about littergies and littergues, they were created in some strange way by eating a plant. But considering these plants have no power, how could this be? Because they were not directly created by Evernary, they are not completely loyal, although most litterjoys are still loyal to Evernary. Those who are not most form their own group, and they call themselves lotterjoys.
=== Prophecy ===
Many litterjoys will die in the war. They will be beneficial to Evernary's army, but will be vulnerable and taken out easily. The lotterjoys, along with the lottergies and lottergues will cause mass chaos. Many of them will die, however, as both sides will attack them. Two litterjoys, identities unknown, will learn magic and be beneficial as counterintelligence in Evernary's army. One of them will sacrifice themselves, and when they do, t̵͎̼̖̕ö̷̦̤̣́̒̎̿͋d̷̩̹̘̒̎͊̚ ̸̝̫͈̠͐͜ḫ̸̽d̴̛̦̦̖͓͉̄b̷͚̕ ̸̢̛͖͉̪͉̃͝e̸̳̽m̴̥̗̭͆g̷̹͖̫̤̮͌ ̷̤͙̰̪͉͒y̸̳̦͈̓͜a̵̭̐̆s̵͚͙̹̋̾͜ͅ ̸͙͗̓r̷̜͚̓̎̈́n̶̹̑̈́ͅḑ̵̰͛̌̇͝f̶̥̝͉̿̏̌ ̸͚̭̻̞̻̕ĕ̴̡̛͖̩̪̈́̊͝p̸͓̣̻̹̞̊͂̆̎̄f̶̖̟̣̊͜ĺ̷̗ ̸̼̳̰̏b̸͕̮̓̍t̸̩̅̔̒h̵͒̈̓̑͐͜i̸̝͈͌͜ͅ ̴͙̼́̅͘i̶̧͍̱͙̔͌̔ͅq̸̛͙͚͚̇̊̚b̴͉̜̮̀̋n̸̗̻̜͔̓͂̃͘͜͝ ̸͙̰̙̽̎̕r̸͕̤̃̏̐̃̆x̴̧̤̭̐̐̃̀m̸̫͋͛̐l̸̢̔̈́ ̴̨̡͙̪̹̋̕t̶͚̝͉͚̬̄̈́͊ụ̵̜͔̓͐͊̈́d̷̰͙̠̬͗̒̎͐t̶̮̹͉͙̠͛͋͝ ̷͕͓̗͚͌h̵̤͇̱̭̊́p̵̢̼̈́͝͝l̴͓̗̂͋a̷̟͖̔́̒
== Magic ==
Many litterjoys are skilled with arcane magic, a rare skill that many other creatures don't have. All litterjoys are born with the innate ability to hypnotize creatures (and possibly humans, it is unknown,) to some extent, but a few have other magical abilities, most non-elemental in nature. Strangely, litterjoys have nearly complete control over pifgligs without practice, the same is true for [creature unknown.] While they are strong with plant, non-elemental, and arcane magic, they cannot use fire magic.
