The '''Sprite bulb''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in {{Dragon Quest XI}}.

It is a floating, blue plant-based slime. It aids its allies in battle by curing wounds much like the [[Healslime]], only it does so by spreading a peculiar pollen instead of with magic. The friendly foliage can't easily control how the pollen spreads, however, and will accidentally heal adventurers as well.

==Etymology==
*Sprite is a Middle English term for a small elfin being that is very elusive, and is derived from the Latin word ''spiritus''. 
*Araune is a mispronunciation of Alraune, which is the German name for the mythical [[Wikipedia:Mandrake_(mythology)|mandrake plant]].
