Parsnik (/ˈpɑːrsnɪk/) is a monster the protagonist encounters in Undertale, appearing throughout the Ruins only on Hard Mode. It is a stronger variation of Vegetoid, with snakes on its head.

Profile

Appearance

Parsnik looks slightly different from its normal counterpart. Its figure is now somewhat skinnier, and its face is different too: its mouth has a more snake-like look, while two white pupils can be seen within its eyes. On top of its head, it has wiggling snakes.
