#star wraith

Last bit of wraith AU for a bit I swear lol

The Star Wraith is a type of Plasma Wraith, which in this AU, was extinct until Shepherd became one. These wraiths are a bright-ish purple, with the basic shape of a Plasm. Though, instead of the thick nubs Plasms have, the Star Wraith has thin, long sides. They are kinda like Shepherd's little hair thing that pokes out from her bandana, but at the ends of both sides are two large and yellow stars. (Think the Undertale save point kind of stars.)

The Star Wraith can be either a lifesaver, and a hindrance when it comes to how it hunts and operates on a daily basis. For starters, Star Wraith don’t technically need to feed like every other Wraith, they gain most of their biomass and energy from strong rays of light, such as the sun. It can also come from Fluorescent lights, and some Gas Wraith Combos can work too. This has led to Fluorescent Wraiths to be a natural prey for these types of Wraiths. Though, the Star Wraith does have some downsides. For example, it needs to keep gaining and storing biomass, as if it runs out, it stops being able to move or hunt, which leaves it as easy prey for other predators. It also has “magic” but it more or less just lets it shoot off weak light rays and float a bit off the ground. 

These types of Wraiths are super immune to Lumiknolls, and often hang around one at night, protecting it while gaining a frick ton of biomass from its light and the moonlight.
