Spear Needle (千槍棘兎) is a rabbit-like monster from YGGDRASIL.

Appearance

The Spear Needle closely resembles a gigantic angora rabbit and has white patches of soft fur. Its full height exceeds two meters.

Abilities

The Spear Needle is a level 67 monster and transforms its loose fur into a thicket of thin, sharp needles in combat. If killed like this, the fur doesn’t revert to its original soft state.

Trivia

• Shalltear Bloodfallen finds Spear Needles cute and continued to pet one despite the danger of its fur.
• Players who hunted Spear Needles for their soft fur stealthily had to kill them in a single strike before the fur transformed. Thus, they were typically a much higher level than the monster.
• One Spear Needle was held in a confining choke-hold by CZ2128 Delta.
• In Overlord: The Undead Oh!, Ainz Ooal Gown considered the idea of pairing Hamsuke with a Spear Needle in hopes of breeding her.
• In Mass for the Dead, Shizu was given her own Spear Needle that was summoned from Ashurbanipal to cheer her up after she mistook a mission to collect 'sheep' as actual sheep rather than humans for Demiurge.
• A Spear Needles was stationed in monitoring the Field of Flowers, where Ainz during his visit found it eating a giant carrot that was cultivated by the inhabitants.
• In Overlord Official Comic A La Carte, the Floor Guardians each received an infant Spear Needle personally named by Ainz as pets. The names of these seven fierce beasts are Cuddle Ball, Fluffi-Jiro, Bloody White Poison, Cuddle Ball (The Little Brother), Roly-Poly-Cuteus, Bunny Needle and Spear-Pippi.
