Dirtling

Dirtling, known in Japan as soil dumpling, is an enemy fought in the Path of Five Organs on Erd and the Phunnel Pit on Nova in Magical Starsign.

Profile
Dirtlings are two dustlings conjoined to form a large spherical blob with facial features.

Enemy
Two dirtlings are encountered when a clodling is attacked without having its hit points drained, causing it to perform cell division. Despite having the earth starsign, dirtlings do not possess any spells. They have the physical skill wink, damaging a random member of the party each turn that they are not attacked. If they are attacked and their hit points are not drained, they will perform cell division, splitting into two dustlings.

Bestiary entry
When a clodling breaks apart, it forms dirtlings. Science has long wondered how many more times a dirtling can be divided.
