The Sprite bulb is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series, 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.
