Sign Spike

What is a Sign Spike?
A Sign Spike is an enemy in SRB2-RPG. It resembles a sign from the end of a level in most classic Sonic games. The picture on the sign is black with two red eyes. When it sees a player, it digs into the ground, then re-appears closer. It will then dig towards them even closer, and closer, until it touches them. Then it will engage in battle. Like the end level sign from classic Sonic games, this sign-shaped enemy has a pole on the bottom. On the bottom of that pole is a spike. This spike is its primary means of attack, besides spinning rapidly. Sign Spikes are well-equipped with armor. These enemies are found in several areas, notably Mystical Mountain Forest, which has about 20. Only two are found in Green Grove Forest, and five are found in Green Grove Zone. When defeated, these enemies will spin like a normal sign, then show a thumbs up picture.
