Licker
The Licker is a medium health, medium damage hollow with a short but nasty two-move kit. Lick Grab is a tongue snatch dealing medium damage, documented as dodgeable only - no parry or block is listed - so it functions like a grab and demands a sidestep every time the tongue comes out.
Acidic Explosion is the crowd move: parryable, blockable and dodgeable with medium damage and medium posture damage, and on its first use it spawns 3 Dragonfly hollows into the fight. That summon is the Licker's real trick - what starts as a duel becomes a four-on-one unless you clear the swarm or burn the Licker down fast.
Its confirmed drop is the Monster Iris hollow part. The community source does not document where Lickers spawn; the cross-referenced Dragonfly card simply confirms the Licker as one of the three ways Dragonflies enter the world, alongside field spawn objects and the Giant Dragonfly boss.

Community notes (Discord)
Community note (starboard, 206 stars): Dragonflies summoned by the Licker persist after the Licker dies - killing the summoner does not despawn them - and NPC anti-gank behavior means they attack one at a time, which makes chasing them in missions tedious. Pending verification.

FAQ
Can I block the Licker's grab?
No - Lick Grab is only documented as dodgeable. Sidestep the tongue; blocking will not save you.
Why did Dragonflies suddenly appear mid-fight?
The Licker's first Acidic Explosion spawns 3 Dragonfly hollows. Clear them quickly or focus the Licker down before the swarm overwhelms you.
