  DESCRIPTION   

The Sundew is a lithe Slugcat, covered with bright red hairs. Each of these hairs secretes a glob of sticky glue at the very end, which smells very slightly sweet. These globs of glue lure and trap Batflies. This sticky glue also allows her to hang from horizontal poles and swing from them (a bit like a Grapplebug, but upside-down). Her tail is malleable, and can be stretched to a length much longer than normal if needed. Using this trick, she can trap much larger prey in her tail temporarily, such as lizards. Of course, if she does not dispatch the prey before it breaks out-- the prey will likely snap back at her.

  PERSONALITY   

Most of the time, The Sundew is a cheerful, goofy Slugcat, always looking for some adventure to be had. She loves finding places that it seems no one else has discovered, and uses her glue to stick rocks to walls to signify that she found it first. Of course, this mood only lasts as she is full and satisfied; when hungry, she becomes an entirely different beast. Highly attentive and anxious, she will lash out at almost any moving thing-- even someone she would normally consider a friend. Therefore, she mainly keeps to herself, to keep other Slugcats safe.

  HISTORY   

The Sundew has no interesting backstory; she was born into a lineage of Slugcats that had come into a mutualistic relationship with Pole Plants. She left her stationary colony, as she felt trapped by their set ways. She currently resides in the wreckage of Method Over Madness, as in her mind, it is the closest thing to where she was born to a new and mysterious place. In this wreckage, she has met The Sporespiller many times. However, due to his lackluster parkouring abilities, she feels she has a much better means of getting around the place than he.
