Baby Sheegoth: Difference between revisions

'''Baby Sheegoths''' are the infant form of [[Phendrana Drifts|Phendrana's]] primary predator, the [[Sheegoth]]. They attack by ramming, firing bursts of ultracold gas, or breathing damaging frigid breath. Sheegoths' bodies are resistant to attacks, but their dorsal area is vulnerable. If [[Samus Aran|Samus]] can break through the icy shell protecting their backs, she can quickly defeat Baby Sheegoths. Like other ice based creatures, Baby Sheegoths are especially susceptible to the [[Plasma Beam]].

When Samus attempts to acquire the [[Wave Beam]] in the [[Chapel of the Elders]], she is attacked by a group of four Baby Sheegoth. After they are defeated an adult Sheegoth attacks. Once Samus defeats [[Thardus]], Baby Sheegoth become less common as the adults move into more areas.

Baby Sheegoths resemble {{wp|reptile}}s (especially {{wp|Diapsid}}s) and are well adapted to the cold. They rely on ramming attacks and, at a distance, the creatures resort to burst projectiles. Their main weakness is their sensitive dorsal area, only exposed when their icy shell is broken. They are usually met in small {{wp|Pack hunter|packs}} of two or three, and become solitary as adults.
