Mosskin
Mosskin are enemies in Hollow Knight. They are ancient denizens of Greenpath who were created by Unn from her dream.[1][2] Since Unn hid herself away, the Mosskin's leaves started wilting and they became Infected.[3]
 They can be hard to spot amongst the foliage until you get too close and they suddenly come charging at you. Tread carefully.  |
Behaviour and Tactics
Meanders back and forth until disturbed. Upon seeing the Knight, it runs forward headfirst, dealing contact damage. It ends the charge with a short roll and it cannot charge again for a brief period, giving time for a counterattack.
They move somewhat predictably, but they run very fast and slashing them does not cause them to stop, so be mindful and jump over their attack in time.
