Behavior Patterns

This object does not exhibit behavior. It appears to be a desiccated biological fragment, possibly a dried scab, a piece of earwax, or dried serous fluid from a healing wound, rather than an insect or arachnid.

Risks & Benefits

No inherent risk. If from a wound, it indicates healing. It is frequently mistaken for a parasite or mite due to its jagged, organic appearance.
