Uoma
 The spirit of a dead ancestor? The brain of a larger creature, allowed to drift free? An egg searching for a safe place to spawn? I have no idea what this is.  |
Uomas are enemies in Hollow Knight. They are small gelatinous creatures whose static-charged outer shells give an electric shock on contact.[1] The Uomas are connected in some way to Monomon the Teacher.[2]
Behaviour and Tactics
Floats passively in place, dealing damage if the Knight comes in contact with it.
Because they move slowly and so many of them are in a small area, they are a good source of SOUL and can easily be hit with the Dream Nail.

Trivia
- The Uoma is one of the few enemies that respawns upon leaving and re-entering the room.
- When killed, the Uoma's small orange core bounces free. It does not damage the Knight, unlike the Ooma's larger, explosive core.
