Spikesnake

Distortionsnakes are unique monsters, found generally in the underground caves of highly advanced mechanical environments. It is unclear what first created these creatures, however each variety has striking similarities. Every variety of Distortionsnake is composed of 5+ distortion spheres, that seem capable of altering depending on environmental factors, and purpose. Each Distortionsnake is lead by a "head" sphere, in which each "body" sphere is programmed to follow. Destruction of the head, or severe enough damage to the several body spheres leads to the complete shutdown, and self-destruction of the entire Distortionsnake. At this point, there is a total of five known Distortionsnakes, each composed of varying materials, and with vastly different capabilities.

All varieties of Distortionsnakes attack in a rather straightforward pattern of charging the nearest living organism and slamming their dangerous distortion spheres into them. Within each type of Distortionsnake however, lies vastly different capabilities. The Spheresnake possesses 8-10 body segments, each of which is capable of dealing moderate contact damage. What makes this variety most dangerous is it's odd ability to cling to a creature, and deal heavier continuous damage than other Distortionsnakes. Proving to be difficult to escape from once struck, or engaged in melee, damage can quickly accumulate as each segment is capable of dealing contact damage. Additionally, as with all Distortionsnakes, upon spotting a target, the Spheresnake gains the ability to burrow through blocks.

Distortionsnakes are found in CyberSphere planets underground.

Luna's Lab Notes
~ The Spikesnake, as with all Distortionsnakes, is uncapturable due to the monsters coding. Interesting creature though, as segmented monster types are 100% fan-made!

~ This variety of Distortionsnake only has 4 frames in it's spritesheet and a significantly smaller base image than other verities. That said, it doesn't look half bad in game.
