Description[]

The red Trap Claw[1][2] (aka Red Scissorbeak[3]) lurks inside walls. Initially, only its beak/mandible is visible, protruding from the wall, opening and closing. Its body has spines down its length, and a yellow orb/eye in the center. It has two large, curved mandibles. Its tail is almost as long as the rest of it.

When Trace gets level with it, it launches itself out making a screeching noise. It only moves horizontally, and continues until it reaches another wall, embedding itself into it. If Trace remains on its level, it will continue constantly attacking back and forth.

Some Trap Claws are completely obscured by foreground scenery. They can be detected by a faint intermittent rumbling/crunching noise they emit while stationary. It can be attacked from above or below while embedded in the wall by shooting at the protruding part.

Corrupted Form[]

When corrupted, Trap Claws leave a trail of blocks behind. The red Trap Claw leaves a line of Red Bubbleblock.
