Blight

Blights are light-based Spirits that commonly appear as gently-floating lanterns. Common blights are powered by fire magic, and resemble Japanese paper lanterns with tendril-like threads hanging from them. The magical flame which remains afloat beneath it contains all its life energy. Those who stand directly below it will see that it is completely hollow inside.

They are attracted to places that produce immense amounts of light, both natural and artificial. This being said, they are most commonly spotted in cities, large towns, Syphon Plains, volcanic biomes, glowing mushroom biomes, and alters and burial sites that are decorated with candles.

Once a favorable light source has been spotted, the Blight will slowly and mindlessly drift towards the light to absorb its wave particles; this is how it feeds. Energy beings make sure to be wary of these Spirits.
