Characteristics

Trickstars are anthropomorphic sea stars with an orange and white color scheme and green stripes on its arms. Unlike their weaker Scarfish cousins, the trickstars have chosen to focus on supporting their allies, being able to heal their allies with Multiheal. They can also send entire parties into a state of confusion with their befuddling dance. In later appearances, the sea stars have dedicated themselves to dancing, being able to perform Hustle Dance to heal their fellow monsters instead of casting magic. According to their bestiary entry in X, the trickstar is a rising star in the dance world that puts its life on the line in order to dance.
