Veridizus is a half-dragon phantom that lives and often glows in green fluorescence in dark mushroom caves in the nether. His type of phantom is considered an endangered species in the nether due to its lack of productivity. However slaying and drinking the meat from this species of phantom can lead give the predator the ability to put hexes into people. Side effects include a long nosebleed and a headache, but after the side effects have been past, the player can gain greater agility and dark magic like never before. Some have sought Veridizus and his companions for food, but the phantom is crafty enough to set up traps before the predator can reach him.
