Bestiary entry from the Clan Primer:
Bestiary Observations
“Being named for its prominence in the upper echelons of pumpkin head society.
These creatures know of learning, and all are dedicated to the pursuit of some form of knowledge. For those who show the most success, there is a reward: a star-shaped lantern.
In recent years, their intellect has advanced by leaps and bounds, causing some natural philosophers to fear a coming clash with our civilization in the days to come.”

* In order to make the Pumpkin Star and the other Mandragoras appear in the Ice Field of Clearsight you must defeat all the enemies in the Ice Field of Clearsight first, then travel to the Redolent Glade area, and finally, return to the Ice Field of Clearsight. All five of the Mandragoras will spawn. Just exit back to the Redolent Glade and back into the Ice Field of Clearsight again to make them respawn subsequent times.
