Tri-Lakshana Creatures are an exploration and combat mechanic in Sumeru.
Overview[]
Tri-Lakshana Creatures have three states depending on the element applied to it — Scorched, Normal, and Activated.
Tri-Lakshana Creatures in the Normal state will enter the Scorched state when they come into contact with Pyro, which usually causes them to be unable to carry out their normal functions in some way. Scorched Tri-Lakshana Creatures can be brought back to the Normal state with Dendro.
Tri-Lakshana Creatures will change from the Normal state to the Activated state when they come into contact with Electro, which usually enhances their normal functions in some way; for example, the player will bounce higher when jumping on an Activated Bouncy Mushroom. When activated using Electro, a Tri-Lakshana Creature will release a Truesense Pulse which may display the location of certain hidden things.
In Withering Zones Tri-Lakshana creatures will remain in their scorched state until the zone is cleared.
