Glowbes

'Within the blink of an eye, these mysterious beings flashed into existence and began populating the Monster world. While Singing Monsters may be in the dark about their origin (they make no sound, which completely baffles them), they have been enlightened as to their purpose: to help create amazing light displays for the Islands! Glowbes have officially been welcomed into the Monster family, and are here to stay!'

Appearance
A Glowbe resembles a lightbulb with a single eye and two dangling arms. Small sparks orbit the central light inside their bulb.

A Glowbe has a single color, and blinks on and off in a user-programmable pattern. When a Glowbe is "conjured" in a Fuzer, it may be chosen to be red, yellow, or blue. In addition, two Glowbes can be "fuzed" to create a new, secondary color like green, purple, or orange. It's also possible to fuze a primary and secondary color -- for instance, fuzing red with green yields a puce Glowbe; fuzing red with orange yields a reddish-orange Glowbe.

All Glowbes are the same size. For all practical purposes, they are a decoration rather than a Monster. They do not have levels like other Monsters and cannot be "biggified".

Combinations
The following table shows some of the color combinations. Since it appears to be possible to combine any pair of Glowbes, creating finer and finer gradations of color, no table can show all of the possibilities. It doesn't matter which color is on the right side and which is on the left.

Usually, when colors of lights are combined, an additive color scheme results. For example, on a television or computer monitor, red and green combine to give yellow. However, the combinations of Glowbes work on a subtractive color system, as with mixing paints. To predict what color will result from a given combination of Glowbes, you may find it useful to think of each Glowbe as having a white light inside, shining through a transparent colored shell. The colors of the shells from the two "parents" would be mixed and painted onto the shell of the "child".

When you're combining multiple Glowbes, the order of the mixing is important because it affects the final proportions. Blue and yellow combine to give a green: ½ blue and ½ yellow. If this is combined with red, the resulting red-brown color is ½ red, ¼ blue, and ¼ yellow. But if you combine red and yellow to give orange (½ red and ½ yellow) and then combine that with blue, you get indigo-blue from the ½ blue, ¼ red, and ¼ yellow. Red and orange give reddish-orange: ¾ red, ¼ yellow.
