Template:Infobox:Fauna Flora The Mesmer is a life form belonging to the fauna category. It can be found in deep water and large caves.
Appearance
The Mesmer is a small but colorful fish with three design patterns; its six large skin flaps are bluish-green with black stripes and are surrounded by a thin translucent blue film.
Its main body is a shimmery purple-blue in color, speckled with purple dots, and ends in a glowing greenish-blue structure that splits into two. Its jagged mouth is of a pinkish color and is surrounded by violet skin. Its eyes features horizontal rectangular pupils and yellow sclerae.
When attacking, the Mesmer's "lips" opens up, revealing its soft, slimy body and four pink stalks topped with sharp teeth. These stalks surround its toothless true mouth.
Behavior
It is able to attract the player, via hypnosis, toward itself. If the Mesmer succeeds in attracting and drawing the player in, it will attack them, removing 30 health, and then flee.
The Mesmer will often home in on either the Seamoth or Cyclops and attach itself to their fronts if a player is inside. This does not do any damage, however.
The Mesmer can also draw in other fauna, including another of its kind. If two Mesmers attack each other, they will start spinning quickly around each other and rapidly descending, until they crash into the sea floor. If this happens, one Mesmer will never release the other, so it is assumed that both will starve and die.
Data Bank Entry
Small carnivorous lifeform with a unique hunting mechanism that allows it to catch prey twice its size.
The mesmer waits until a larger carnivore approaches before opening its outer wings. Predators become transfixed by the shimmering pattern, at which point the mesmer opens the jawlike recess in its protective shell and attempts to eat its victim alive, or incapacitate it long enough to escape.
