Here´s a couple of my ideas for cave desgined creatures:
Desmodus Celeridente (Desmodus is a genus of vampire bat,Celeridente translates to ´´Swift fang``)
https://preview.redd.it/tpw2q6msar841.png?width=540&format=png&auto=webp&s=6f0d5cbee2ed8b49681c919af08b3dc15a35e515
´´Desmodus Celeridente inhabits the occult ceilings and dark hallways of the aberrant ark,adapted to other means of travel rather then flying,the Celeridente can glide,swoop,dive,climb,walk and swim its way towards unespecting prey,usually medium to large sized herbivores and lampreys (a delicacy it enjoys)
While normally only agressive to herbivores,the Celeridente can rapidly dive into higher tiers of prey if they are injured,sick or sleeping. Sleep with a eye open fellow survivors!
Tamed:
The Desmodus can be a unvaluable tame to both war and peaceful tribes due to it´s high moblity,endurance and combat proweness,especialy when paired with another creature that can cause open wounds and bleeding``
Habitat: The celeridente inhabits the ceilings of the fertile zone (rare) and the bioluminecent zone (uncommon),but can be ocasionally be seen diving into the ground,climbing or swimming to get it´s prey
Behavior: It attacks small and tiny creatures mostly,but may attack medium and large sized creatures if the creature is bleeding or at low health
Stats:
•Base health: 400 (slightly more then a argy)
•Base Stamina: 500 (100 more then a argy)
•Base oxygen: 220 (slightly more then a thyla)
•Base food: 1500
•Base Weight: 280
•Base damage: 70 (slightly less then a megalosaurus)
•Movement speed: 100%
•Torpidity: 780 (slightly more then a megalosaurus)
•Drag weight: 300
Can be immobilized by: Chain bola,Large bear trap and Plant Y
Can be grabbed by: Megalosaurus and Tuseotheis
Traits:
•Nocturnal: Desmodus eyes glow red while at nightime (all times at aberration) and it´s attack and movement speed are increased by 10%
•Bloodsucker: Desmodus bite heals and feeds him for 10% of the damage dealt,20% if the target is bleeding or at low health,addionally the Desmodus can eat leech blood and receives 50 hunger and 100 health for doing so
•Heat vision: The rider of the Desmodus can see Bleeding and Low health creatures with a heat signature (like a tek railgun)
•Climbing: Celeridente can climb both walls and ceilings like a megalania,and hang upside down from them,but slightly faster
•Gliding: Celeridente can glide similar to a griffin/snow owl/rock drake,albeit slower
•Diving: Celeridente can dive while gliding,similar to a griffin or snow owl,albeit slower
•Swooping: Cleridente can swoop while diving,by looking up while diving it will gain altitude and lose some of its speed
•Jumping: the Desmodus can jump as high as a Deinoychus,and is immune to fall damage
•Swimming: Celeridente can swim slightly quicker then a beaver and can dive in water
•Walking/Running: The Celeridente can walk and run like a raptor,albeit slightly slower
Main attacks (use the main attack button):
•Bite (Ground/water/latched): The Desmodus bites it´s target for 100% base damage
Stamina cost: 10
•Dive bomb (Diving): The Desmodus creates a aoe when it touches the ground,dealing 500% of it´s base damage (doesn´t trigger Bloodsucker)
Stamina cost: 85
•Latch (Swooping or Jumping): The Desmodus clings itself to a wall,ceiling or creature like a deinoychus
Stamina cost: 0
Alt attacks (use the alt attack button):
•De-latch (While latched): The desmodus jumps in the direction it´s facing as it delatches
Stamina cost: 0
•Echo blast (While not latched): The desmodus emits a deafening screech,stunning adjacent creatures and revealing nearby enemies temporaly like a Parasaur´s sonar
Stun duration: 1 sec
Reveal duration: 6 sec
Stamina cost: 35
Cooldown: 6 sec
Taming:
The Celeridente must be tamed by knock out,it is a carnivore so meat or leech blood must be used
•Preferred food: Leech blood
•Rideable: Yes (with saddle)
•Desmodus Saddle (Unlocked at level 41,crafted at smithy,1 passager that can use weapons):
350 Hide
250 Fiber
40 Metal ingot
25 Blue gem
25 Green gem
•Breedable: Yes (Mammal)
Gestation time: 6 hours
Baby time: 7 hours
Juvenile time: 1 day and 3 hours
Adolescent time: 1 day and 10 hours
Total: 3 days and 2 hours
Breeding interval: 16 hours
Imprinting food: Leech blood
•Utility:
War mount: high base damage,mobilty and the abilitie for the passanger to carry weapons make the Desmodus a excellent Guerrilla war mount with hit n run tatics
Hunter: High damage,moiblity,tracking and stunning can make the desmodus a swift and deadly hunter
Pack hunter: While it doesn´t gain any pack bonuses,a pair of desmodus coupled with a few ravagers can prove very useful for killing stuff
Egg stealer: It´s mobility and the ability to use a whip while mounted can provide useful for egg-stealing (he isn´t immune to radiation tho)
Is it op? (A brief analysis)
Comparison with other creatures that share it´s niche:
Damage:
Celeridente: 70 base damage,plus the ability to dive for 500% damage or latch in large creatures to hit weak spots and to create most types of ambushes
Megalosaurus: 75 base damage,plus the ability to grab medium creatures and a bleed
Griffin: 27 base damage,plus the ability to grab small creatures,dive bomb for 300% damage and dive swipe for 1000-1500% damage
Deinoychus: 30 base damage,plus the ability to pounce on small creatures,pack and alpha boosts,a bleed and the ability to latch on large creatures to hit weak spots
Reaper: 75 base damage,plus the ability to slow creautes,ground fliers,borrow ambushes
Basilisk: 55 base damage (bite),plus a long-range poison aoe that deals 120 base damage and induces torpor and the ability to borrow underground for ambushes
Rock drake: 60 base damage,plus the ability to do invisibility,glide and climbing ambushes and acess to a Tek saddle
My conclusion: If utilizing it´s dive bomb with effectively the Celeridente may surprass other creatures in terms of raw damage,but it lacks range,torpor,grab,borrrow ambushes and slows/bleeds the other creatures have
Tank:
Celeridente: 400 base health,plus saddle and the ability to restore some health and hunger with bites or by feeeding leech blood
Megalossaurus: 1025 base health,plus saddle
Reaper king: 45000 base health,plus incredible resistence while not in charge light but can´t receive mate boost
Griffin: 950 base health but can´t receive mate boost
Deinoychus: 200 base health,plus pack and alpha boost and saddle
Basilisk: 2750 base health plus saddle
Rock drake: 1950 base health plus saddle and tek saddle can eat nameless venom for quick health
My conclusion: The celeridente is outclassed by large margin by most creatures in the list,except maybe the deinoychus
Mobility:
Celeridente: Climbs walls and ceiling faster then a megalania,swims faster then a beaver,glides and dives slower then other gliders and walks a bit slower then a raptor
Megalossaurus: Faster then the Celeridente while walking
Reaper king: Faster then the Celeridente while walking and jumping
Griffin: Flies,dives and glides a lot faster then the celeridente
Deinoychus: Walks and jumps a bit faster then the celeridente,climbs slower then the celeridente
Basilisks: Walks faster then the celeridente and can burrow
Rock drake: Walks,Jumps,Glides,Climbs and Dives faster then the celeridente
My conclusion: while a good jack of all trades,the celeridente is still slower in some aspect then the other creatures (except swimming) and lacks burrowing
Utility:
Celeridente: Can harvest a lot of leech blood and rider can use weapons ,can track low health and bleeding creatures
Megalossaurus: Grab and aberrant version is immune to radiation
Reaper king: Slows and burrows,immune to radiation
Griffin: Two riders that can carry weapons
Deinoychus: Rider can use weapons
Basilisks: Burrows and torpor
Rock drake: Rider can use weapons,tracks reapers and is immune to radiation
My conclusion: The celeridente can go par on par with most creatures in utility,but lacks carry weight and radiation immunity
Edit: Added drag weight and means that it can be immobilized/grabbed,slightly increased stun duration and doubled it´s cooldown,slightly increased base health and weight,more in depth breeding
Im brazilian sorry for the bad english
