Wandering Vagrant
"I swear I sometimes see hundreds of vagrants up there. What are they looking for?"
– The Survivor
The Wandering Vagrant is one of the game's bosses.
Description
It appears as a larger version of the Jellyfish. However, unlike the jellyfish, the Vagrant's head is occupied by mutiple colorful organs instead of one large brain.

The Vagrant quickly floats towards the player it's targeting. It deals no contact damage, instead attacking by creating six projectiles that quickly fly towards and detonate where the player was standing.

Monster Log
Day 3. While looking through some wreckage of the old ship, I felt a hot sensation on my skin and a brilliant white flash. Over the horizon maybe 5 miles north I saw it, looming over the forest tops.
It must be the size of a house, this thing. A massive variant of the jellyfish seen earlier; this behemoth hovers in the air, searching for something. The gas used to propel this beast bend the trees below it flat. When it spotted its prey, it sent out six bioluminescent orbs, all crashing towards the ground and incinerating the target.
This Vagrant, as I've come to call it, seems to wander amidst the skies, followed by many jellyfish. On the occasion the clouds part, I swear I sometimes see hundreds of vagrants up there. What are they looking for?
Trivia
- Wandering Vagrant are referred to as "Giant Jellies" in the sprite files.
