Maggot

Behaviour and Tactics
Two of them are encountered in Forgotten Crossroads above the False Knight's boss arena, after acquiring the Mantis Claw.

Flees from the player, posing no threat. They do not respawn.

It's best to leave the left one alive until the Failed Champion is defeated. If the player loses in the dream fight, they wake up with full health but no SOUL. Using the Dream Nail on the Maggot is a convenient way to re-enter the fight prepared.
