Sea Mandrake
The Sea Mandrake is a Pre-Hardmode enemy that spawns in the Ocean biome while the quest "Dye Pursuit: Seaform" is active. It swims around passively in the water and emits a faint amount of light. If the player is near a Sea Mandrake, it will attempt to dart away from them but cannot deal contact damage. When harmed, it will spray particles at them that inflict the Darkness debuff. If it is outside of water, it will move around and shake aimlessly, however if the player is submerged in water, it will flop around aimlessly.
When a Sea Mandrake spawns, it will spawn with a randomly generated color which is indicated by the top portion of its sprite glowing. The color of the light it emits and the particles it fires is based on the color the Sea Mandrake is currently taking on.
