Disposition: Aggressive
Diet: Men's spirit energy, Blood
A notably more dangerous sub-species of the Bubble Head Nurse, the Dark Nurses as they have come to be know by some can sometimes be seen with the Bubble Head Nurses but are more likely to be found shambling the abandoned roads of the towns they and their main species inhabit in aprons. (This term is used to refer to a group of dark nurses)
The first noticeable difference between Dark and Bubble Head Nurse is that Dark Nurse intentionally live in groups (as opposed to Bubble heads who more often than no just end up occupying the same territory) and are hypothesized to not be able to live alone. Dark Nurses also seem to be smart then their progenitor species and have something resembling a hierarchy with one being a clear leader and others being subordinates with clear roles within the apron (similarly to a slime kingdom created by a queen slime).
Dark nurse are most often shambling around aimlessly in search of food or a man, should a man be spotted the leader with have him held down by her subordinates and the man will systematically mated by the entire group going down the establishment hierarchy.
One the group has mated theirs entire demeanor changes becoming even more aggressive actively attacking any female that dare get to close to their man even those on the bottom of the ladder will fight tooth and nail for him and all members will display a jealousy and possessiveness rivaling that of a shirohebi.
“Authors field notes”
It seems that despite their rather mindless appearance they are rather similar to humans in that both married and unmarried aprons will actively seek and find other aprons and fight them resembling human conflict over territory.
It appears that the hierarchy within an apron is not fixed one the group obtains a man he becomes the new head of the group there has been infighting observed in several different groups of dark nurse and this is hypothesized that this occurs due to one member attempting to move up the ladder and one can assume that victory means the member has successfully moved up wether the loser is simply moved down a rank or completely knocked to the bottom of the hierarchy is unknown another apparent way to upset balance is for the man to show more favor to one over the other and this seems to make that nurse the new “head” regardless of any fighting.
It has been shown that a Dark nurse can survive a solitary life (ie without a group but if and only if she has a man a solo married Dark nurse is not impossible but extremely uncommon and scholars have observed that these solo nurses will often be joined by a group with or without a husband.
