Sand Spirit

The Sand Spirit is a floating hostile enemy found in Desert Caves. It can move through walls, and it is able to detect players even when they are not in direct line of sight, making it dangerous in enclosed cave systems where terrain would normally offer cover.

One of its most distinctive traits is that its eyes remain visible at all light levels, including when the body is hidden inside a wall. This makes it easier to tell when one is nearby, even before it emerges into open space. Because it can attack from inside terrain, it is best treated as a threat that can appear before you can reliably see its full body.

• Since the Sand Spirit can travel through walls, staying behind terrain is not reliable protection.
• Its visible eyes can be used as an early warning sign when exploring Desert Caves.
• Open movement and careful positioning are safer than assuming it cannot reach you through solid blocks.
