NPCs & Enemies Ouruboros: Snake in Marble Caves.

[TheGuideIsEvil]

Ouroboros is a green snake that eats itself. In game, it resembles a snake that eats itself and travels in an infinity pattern. It has a worm behavior. They spawn in Marble Caves.

Since it's a Greek concept, it belongs here.

It rarely drops Infinity Snake Staff, which spawns the enemy to fight for you.

Issue: it cannot both be eating itself and be travelling towards you at the same time, as to eat itself is to retread ground it's already travelled, and to travel is to not retread ground.

Hmm. Maybe some stats would be cool, like its damage, speed, and more specific details on what the staff does.

That is a great idea!

 

[The Triangle God]

It could fire projectiles around it every time it completes a loop so it can actually damage you.
