Aphrodite II, the over-sized Aberrant Plant, found in Darkmoor’s Graveyard, wants only one thing from Wizards, food. Whether that food is a Pet Snack or the Wizards themselves, it probably doesn’t care.
Wizards can access this unique Boss by using a Stone Skeleton Key in the Graveyard, and may duel against four of Aphrodite’s Tendrils, varying in school from Life, Death, and Myth.
Oh yeah? Do I look like a gardening plant to you, punk? If I can move and I can talk, who’s to say I can’t do anything I want? Feed me, Wizard! Cause if you feed me, Wizard, I can grow up big and strong! You know I don’t come from no Fetid Lagoon! I’m from past the stars and beyond the moon. Feed me. Feed me. Feeeeeed me!
Aphrodite II
Aphrodite II’s dialogue quotes from Audrey II’s song in the 1986 film “Little Shop of Horrors”, “Mean Green Mother from Outer Space.”
Audrey II is the main antagonist in every version of Little Shop Of Horrors [1960 film, 1982 Off-Broadway production, 1986 film, 2003 Broadway production, and a 2019 Off-Broadway revival]. The plant requires human blood to survive. The plant’s origin is from outer space.
Audrey II was bought by Seymour (Rick Moranis in the 1986 film) from an old Chinese man by the name of Chang, a florist that sold other exotic plants, for just “a dolla’ ninety-five!” At first, Seymour just thought of Audrey II as a sort of Venus Flytrap, yet all the different types of food and care he gave it didn’t work and caused it to grow weaker. Eventually, Audrey II grew larger into a hideous beast that gained the ability to talk and soon began to beg Seymour for more food, upgrading from blood to human meat as well.
