Puddle Spore
| ||||||||
|
The Puddle Spore is a mollusk that resides in the scathing lava pools of Magmoor Caverns in Metroid Prime.
Properties
Puddle Spores float on the surface of lava lakes, protected from potential predators by an impenetrable shell. When it does sense danger, a Puddle Spore will attempt to intimidate its opponent by opening its mantle cavity to increase its size. The mantle is vulnerable to weapons fire, however, and a direct hit to its mantle will cause a Puddle Spore to enter a defensive position in which it flips itself over and conceals itself in the magma. Its underside is flat and can be used as a platform to cross lava-filled areas.
A Puddle Spore can also slam its mantle shut, ejecting a harmful spread of projectile energy globules that will damage on contact.
