Field notes
Drawn to anything that glows, including you. It flings sparks of static from its dusty wings.
Where it lives
Glowcap Hollow, in Mycelia. Seen from level 2. Its level depends on where you meet it: at home, how far from the village you are; on the other lands, that land's band, lowest near the harbour side. It is stronger at night. Stronger ones are called Murky Glow Moth (level 15+), Deep Glow Moth (level 40+), Elder Glow Moth (level 80+).

Tough against (takes less): Energy −50%
Its attack: the sparks. It is steady (wind-up 0.7 s, then 2.4 s before the next).
Glow Moths are weak to fire and earth but shrug off energy. Watch for their sparks: step sideways when they glow, and the sparks fly past.
Cleansed, it bursts into clean water and leaves.
