Jellyfish



Jellyfish are white, floating saucer-shaped organisms with long, thin tentacles that drape into the water they live in. When thrown, they will flash for a short time. During this period, creatures that touch it (including the player) will receive an electric shock. This deals little damage, but will stun the organism and make them convulse for a short time. Jellyfish can also be consumed for one food point.

Trivia

 * Unlike jellyfish in real life, Rain World's Jellyfish produce electricity. Jellyfish may have developed this ability naturally, but it is possible that they were purposed organisms designed to produce electricity by the Ancients for an unknown use.
 * Jellyfish are considered objects, and can deflect objects like spears and rocks when hit. Their status as objects means that they do not have health, and as such cannot die. However, if Jellyfish are taken out of water for too long, they will brown and darken like Leeches. This does not affect their ability to create shocks, however.
 * Occasionally, an organism that touches the Jellyfish's tentacles will get ensnared briefly, until they either escape or receive a light shock. This shock can kill batflies and leeches, which make Jellyfish a potential way to ward off leeches. It's possible the jellyfish's diet consists of leeches, batflies, and/or the tiny organisms that swim in the background.
