Appearance

The Spike Trap consists of a huge cross-shaped base on the ground having a cross-shaped maw at its center, in which features a smaller real mouth, filled with sharp, rectangular teeth. The center of the base is dull grey in color, and covered with four, spiky, yellowish carapace-like structures.

From each corner of Spike Trap's mouth protrudes a total of six white, red-tipped feelers extending upwards, with two pairs of feelers on one side and a pair of two singular feelers on the other. At the end of each feeler sports a bright yellow colored suction pad that emits a bioluminescent glow.

Behavior

At rest the Spike Trap sits in idly with its tendrils waving in the water, croaking quietly. When a suitably sized animal comes within a certain distance the Spike Trap is capable of lashing out its long tendrils to catch the target before drawing them into the centre to be consumed.

The player can be grabbed but is able to escape by detaching the tendril from their body. It is currently unscannable but if it will be on the future is not confirmed.
