Odd beetle

Odd beetle is a boss in Magical Starsign, fought at the Couscous Ruins on Puffoon.

Profile
The odd beetle is a very large insect with many sharp legs, mandibles, and eyes. It has a brown body with a red pattern, and four wings protruding from its back.

Boss
Despite having light affinity, the odd beetle does not possess any spells. It has the physical skill binding sickle, which attacks a random member of the party. Using sleeping cocoon, it can remove a party member from the battle. While it has its cocoon, it can use the skill riot cocoon to deal damage to all party members. It can also perform cocoon bust, which does the same while returning the party member it originally took to the battle. In order to boost its power, it can also use fighting dance.

English
What manner of insect is this? A mutation? Or is it perhaps the result of some experiment?

Japanese
しょうたいふめいの大きな虫. とつぜんへんいか　何かのじっけんの　さんぶつなのか……？

A large unidentifiable insect. Is it the product of mutation, or maybe some other experiment...?

Magical Starsign
The odd beetle was first mentioned by Brie Pourri after the party fought her at Couscous Ruins, to which she said it was created by Kale at the behest of King Suspiro, and that it fed off gummies for power. After Knucklestorm caught up with the party in the ruins' final chamber, he cautioned them that the odd beetle was approaching their location. When it arrived and began attacking the group, Knucklestorm's daughter, Pourri, arrived to defend them. As she turned away from the large monster, it locked its fore-legs onto her Space Police saucer, locking her in place. After Knucklestorm instructed the protagonist to press the release button on the device, Pourri was freed, but was simultaneously struck by the beetle's legs.

At this point, the large creature turned away from Knucklestorm and Pourri, engaging the party in battle directly. Upon defeating it, the party was immediately alerted to Pourri, although she had already died in her father's arms. When Mokka informed Knucklestorm of this after detecting that her heart had stopped, he began to rant about his loss in despair, recollecting about his initial opposition to Pourri joining the Space Police. Following this, the odd beetle's corpse began to flash brightly, eventually revealing itself as the wind millennium gummy. When exposed, the gummy's energy ultimately resurrected Pourri, much to the joy and confusion of her father. The party then took possession of the item.
