Gumbo

Description

Gumbos are mischievous crytures, often seen flitting about the forest canopy, snacking on ripe fruit. Their days are filled with antics, teasing other crytures and creating mischief wherever they roam. When a Gumbo first emerges from its Gumpod form, it displays a strong protective instinct, guarding the cluster of younger Gumpillars that once sustained it. This is short-lived, however; as soon as a new Gumpod matures and morphs into a Gumbo, the older one typically ventures off alone, leaving its successor to take over the role of protector for the next generation.

Combat

A Gumbo uses its mobility to skirt the battlefield, peppering its enemies with ranged and blast attacks. It doesn’t mind being in the thick of things, due to its high Health and good defenses, but prefers to stay behind an ally whenever possible. If protecting a family of Gumpillars, they'll do their best to take some extra hits anyway, to keep their younger family members from harm.
