Mud Man

Mud Men are enemies in the Castlevania series. They're generally found in the swamp areas of the games they appear, and are essentially mud animated by magical arts to resemble a humanoid creature.

They usually don't attack directly after spawning, as they exhibit the qualities of a mindless creature. Commonly when one Mud Man is encountered, an infinite number of Mud Men will be summoned to aimlessly walk the swamp.

Mud men are known for the relative ease by which they can be destroyed, but are a deadly threat to anybody unlucky enough to fall into the swamps from which they are born, as they can be conjured from any point and will deal damage when a player comes into contact with them. When struck they sometimes break off a little at a time and the mud may coalesce to form smaller mud-men.
