Wingmould

Hunter's Journal


A fly-like construct formed of white shell and a dark liquid interior.



''The bugs of Hallownest believed that their king created this world and everything in it. For what purpose, I wonder? Were his subjects companions, or toys, or children? Such a mind seems unknowable.''

Behaviour and Tactics
They are passive creatures that do not attack, though they do deal damage upon contact. They hover in the air, slowly moving around a very small area. They cannot be killed, but they split apart, revealing a core for a few seconds. While in this state, it does not deal contact damage, nor can it be hit again or used for nail-jumping.

Wingmoulds can be both helpful and hindering for the player. They can and often must be used as pseudo-platforms for nail-jumping or as infinite sources of SOUL, since they cannot be permanently killed but give some SOUL every time they are hit.
