Sprite bulb

Dragon Quest monster Spite bulb

Japanese アラウネ Romaji Araune First appearance Dragon Quest XI Old localization None

The Sprite bulb is a floating, blue plant-based slime. It aids its allies in battle by curing wounds much like the Healslime, only it does so by spreading a peculiar pollen instead of with magic. The friendly foliage can't easily control how the pollen spreads, however, and will accidentally heal adventurers as well.
