Mesmer

The Mesmer is a life form belonging to the fauna category. It can be found in deep caves.

It is able to attract the player, via hypnosis, toward the Mesmer. If the Mesmer succeeds in attracting the player and drawing the player in, it will attack the player, removing 30 health, and then flee. Its attitude is defensive.

The Mesmer will often home in on either the Seamoth or Cyclops and attach itself to their fronts if a player is inside. This does not do any damage, however.

Appearance
The Mesmer is a small but colorful fish with three design patterns; its six large skin flaps are bluish-green with black stripes and are surrounded by a thin translucent blue film. Its main body is a shimmery purple-blue in color, speckled with purple dots, and ends in a glowing greenish-blue structure that splits into two. Its jagged "mouth" is of a pinkish color and is surrounded by violet skin. Its eyes are black surrounded by a yellow rim. When attacking, the Mesmer's "head" opens up, revealing its soft, slimy body, and four pink stalks topped with vicious teeth, each surrounding its toothless true mouth, snake out quickly and close in tightly on predators, giving this attack the nickname "the kiss of death."
