[#1266]

Scenario: As the Snow Falls down over a night of Christmas Cheer

A Naughty creature has invaded To spread some Krampus Fear

A child catches the eyes of this scouting Blight

He turns to tell the Tale

Yet the path was not so simple With that noisy TattleTail

He goes for a bite A toy as easy prey

Yet a bump in the night calls With Mama coming to play


SBA

Location: Some poor kid's house

The night blight is a regular Variant

Both are in separate rooms, yet know of each other's presence.

So Mama Tattletail is likely stronger given that she has previously killed adults (plus she too can one shot the child protag). Mama Tattletail naturally hunts the protag based on how noisy they are, so Invisibility is not that major advantage for the Blight, especially with how noisy they can be.

Mama does lack arms was does make her fight style more awkward, but it seems to work considering she has previously killed adults (something the night Blight only do when they are sleeping)

Being Inorganic also makes Mama less susceptible to the Blight claws and teeth, while it doesn't have the same chance if Mama was to bite down on it.

Overall, i may give it to Mama, as funny as it sounds, she's actually the more experienced killer here and the usage of her hearing as her primary hunting tactic helps her with Night Blight's Invisibility.

I'd argue with how casually the night blights eat toys, including toys similar to tattletail, I think it's fair to say they could pierce Mama the same way they chew on any other toy.

Another thing i'd give the Night blight is that although they are loud, i'd still call them pretty stealthy, especially with them being able to crawl along the walls and ceilings. It's not impossible for them to be quiet either as the one in the fireplace, and I believe the ones hiding in the fridge and closet are mainly silent. It might get into a spot that an armless Mama might struggle to get into like under the bed or on the roof for the Tattletail to pounce.

I'd say it could get the jump on mama first.

"I'd argue with how casually the night blights eat toys, including toys similar to tattletail, I think it's fair to say they could pierce Mama the same way they chew on any other toy."

Mama is not any regular toy, not only is she much bigger than what a night blight is used to muching on, she was also made to be able to play tapes, if anything she's much closer to a small scale animatronic than an outright toy.

"It might get into a spot that an armless Mama might struggle to get into like under the bed or on the roof for the Tattletail to pounce."

That wouldn't help it too much given that Mama can teleport, getting the jump on her could just prompt her to teleport to try an assault again

From what I can tell with Mama Tattletail's teleportation and how quickly she killed a fully grown human, she likely takes this more then the Night Blight.

Late Response! whoops!

Although while its actually somewhat closer than i first assumed making this, i concede and give it to Mama.
