Sometimes after touching this purple and blue egg, your hands go numb for a few hours.
These bugs are easy enough to spot, as they glow softly in the dark. Of course, the fact that they're the size of a grown man's arm also helps. Nightcrawlers are one of the largest bugs found in the Silvan forest, and are not commonly seen around the castle. These companions have little interest in human affairs, and prefer to keep to the woods. There, they spend their days fast asleep, tucking themselves under logs or rocks to escape the sun. As the day draws to a close, nightcrawlers awaken and set out in search of food. They have strange appetites, and usually eat fallen leaves or decaying wood. But from time to time, a vicious mood overtakes them and they will turn carnivorous and hunt small birds and fish. Nightcrawlers are always kind enough paralyze their victims before consuming them, though. A single bite immobilizes the future meal instantly so that no pain is felt. This venom is extremely potent, even to humans who are too large to be knocked out. Anyone stung by a nightcrawler will feel numb and drowsy for up to a full day. Luckily, nightcrawlers only bite when preparing to eat, or in cases of extreme danger. It is more typical for one of these companions to run when threatened or curl up in a ball. Their thick armor protects them from most animals.
