Eggbug



Eggbugs are small, passive creatures that can be hunted and killed for the colorful eggs on their backs. Eggbugs, as with most creatures in Rain World, are predominately black, with colourful highlights. They can come in blue, pale green and lime.

Behaviour
Eggbugs are extremely shy and skittish, usually staying as far away from other creatures as possible, especially slugcat. They can evade thrown spears very effectively, and this coupled with their speed can make them a challenge to catch. When speared, their eggs will pop off their body, and can then be eaten for one pip of food each. Eggbugs usually drop 6 - 7 eggs upon death. Whole eggbugs, as well as the eggs, can be eaten by the Hunter (red slugcat), while the eggs themselves can be eaten by the Survivor (white) and the Monk (yellow) once the creature is killed.
