|quote=These creatures attack in groups and cling to the bodies of their prey. A [[spin attack]] is the best way to shake them off. They're light and vulnerable to {{MI|Deku Leaf}} blasts.

The morth becomes physically attached to the target, and the morth's speed becomes 0 feet while attached; it occupies the target's space and moves with it. While attached, the target's attack rolls have {{BL|disadvantage}} against the morth, and the target's speed is halved. Multiple attached morths can further halve the target's speed (reducing it to one quarter, one eighth, and so on), but cannot reduce the target's speed below 5 feet. The attachment ends if the morth is reduced to 0 hit points or is moved from the target's space. Any number of attached morths are removed if the target creature takes an action to remove them.}}
|description=A '''morth''' appears as a black sphere with numerous protruding orange barbs, featuring a single crimson pupil surrounded by a green iris. Its movement is limited to erratic hops.{{a}}'''''Weaponized Offspring.''''' Morths are the newborn offspring of {{C|Mothula}}, comparable to either eggs or larvae. Their primary purpose is to slow down and hamper any and all creatures they come across. They seem to do this to make prey easier for their parent mothula to hunt down, or to prevent predators from giving effective chase. Morths do this even if there is no mothula present, acting entirely on a very basic instinct. Morths are usually only found in the vicinity of mothula. They are typically born in a large {{C|Swarm of Morths|swarms}}. It is exceedingly rare for any of them to actually reach adulthood, but the lucky ones at least grow up to be {{C|Moth}}s.
