About

The Lamprey is a fish-type creature native to the Aberration DLC. It is known for latching onto players and creatures, applying debuffs while attached, a mechanic admins should account for when tuning difficulty or designing custom scenarios on Aberration maps.

To spawn or target this creature via console, use the entity ID Lamprey_Character_C. This ID is also what you reference in server configuration entries, kill commands, or spawn overrides. The name tag Lamprey can be used with commands that accept tag-based targeting.

Because the Lamprey is tied to the Aberration DLC, it will only appear naturally on maps that include Aberration content. Admins running cross-map configurations should confirm DLC content is active before expecting it to spawn.
