Shadow Creeper

Found only in deep, dark places. Has never been observed to eat or drink anything.

Hunter’s notes

This little creeper is weak and poses no threat, but something about it still unsettles me. The way it moves and the noises it makes are... strange somehow.

The notes unlock after 20 kills.

Nail hits to kill

Its 20 HP over the nail's damage per hit at each upgrade, plain and with Fragile or Unbreakable Strength (×1.5, rounded the game's way).

Where it is, its HP and Geo there 5

HP and Geo are read from each scene’s own HealthManager, so they’re exact for that place. Geo with Fragile Greed follows the game’s rule: each coin size gets 20% more coins, rounded up.
