Pest

The Pest is a small spiky alien that hides under desks, in vents, and behind crates to ambush you, then lunges with an extensible tongue that deals sharp damage and can cause bleeding. One is easy, but a pack of three or more is a real threat, and they are weak to blunt damage. Pests are the middle stage between the Carbuncle and the Peccary, and you can tame them with traps and food to use as helpers or to spin a Pest Wheel for power. Variants include the Electro-Pest, Snow Pest, and Volatile Pest.
