Barkantwensen

A giant floating head drifts through the facility with a blank, wide-eyed stare, three syringes wobbling in his scalp, muttering to himself. He can barely see, but he hears everything: sprinting, dropped items, slamming doors, shouting.

Walk slowly and keep quiet, and you can slip right past him. If he sees you, his face splits into a rotten-toothed grin and he rushes you. Break his line of sight and he gives up. If he catches you, he either eats you on the spot, or wraps his tongue around you, carries you off and drops you somewhere you didn't choose. Sometimes over a pit.

Fighting back

• Any hit makes him flinch and drop whoever he's carrying, so your friends can save you.
• He only takes damage from hits to the back of his head. You'll see him flash red when a hit counts.
• When he dies he gets his last words out, then his head bursts. Three syringes survive: RETA and GHK-Cu syringes you can sell (29 to 60 each).

Details

• Spawns inside the facility, on every moon. At most one per day.
• Fully voiced, with his mouth moving to every line.
• Every player in the lobby needs the mod.

Config

Made by aj, with the real Barkantwensen's blessing.

Changelog

1.0.7

• He shows up more and all day long, from the first morning on: about 1 in every 8 monsters that spawn inside, where he used to fall to about 1 in 18 in big mod packs by the afternoon. Still at most one per day.
• He fits on the small early moons now, even after another monster has spawned.

1.0.4

• He shows up much more often, about as often as a Bracken: roughly 1 in every 11 monsters that spawn inside (it was about 1 in 25), averaged over all moons. Still at most one per day.

1.0.2

• He shows up a bit more often: about 1 in 25 inside spawns (it was about 1 in 40).

1.0.0

• First release: the near-blind floating head that hunts by sound and rushes on sight; eats you or carries you off on his tongue; fully voiced.
• Kill him and his head bursts, leaving his syringes behind as scrap you can sell.
