The Spiny Mine (formerly Pummeler) is a monster from the game Dragon Quest VII. It can be found in the Dungeon of Descent and the Likeness of the Great Evil.
Characteristics
Spiny mines are anthropomorphic versions of flails that float on their own. They also resemble naval mines. Their bodies consist of a round iron ball covered in sharp spikes with a one-eyed face and a mouth with sharp fangs, as well as a long chain with a handle that dangles underneath them. Spiny mines attack by swinging their bodies at enemies and protruding the spikes on their bodies. They are prone to self-destructing without warning, as well.
