Template:Class 2 Fauna The Blighter is an aggressive life form and subspecies of the Biter that can be found around the Blood Kelp Caves and Blood Kelp Zone.

Much like its relative, the Blighter is very territorial and will attack the player when nearby.

Appearance

The Blighter closely resembles a Biter, with a few differences which, in general, give it a far more menacing appearance:

• Its eyes have dark brown sclera and pinkish white pupils, giving off a "zombified" look.
• Its body is brown on the dorsal side with a pale white underbelly.
• On its front, a short lure emitting a dull red bioluminescent glow is featured.

Behavior

The Blighter is the complete opposite of the its relative, being a slower, less aggressive and more of a solitary hunter. It slowly patrols its vicinity and often emits ghastly screeches and hisses.

However, the Blighter is still very territorial and will attack if the player gets too close, taking 7% of their health with each bite.
