] ability list:- Bleed Block/Block Bleed is a passive ability that grants the creature resistance to getting bleed status from melee attacks at the very least, and every other source at most. Recode's equivalent of bleed defense; it is percentage based, e.g. if an attacker deals 5 bleed per hit and the receiver has 60% bleed defense, then the receiver gets only 2 of that 5 bleed.
- If a creature's Block Bleed is 100%, then they are immune to Bleed inflicted by melee direct attacks once fully grown. This ability is gained gradually as the creature ages, that is, a creature with 100% Block Bleed will have some fraction of bleed defense while growing, being such fraction bigger as it grows.
- A negative value in-game may indicate an extra vulnerability to the status effect this ability is supposed to protect from.
- Block Disease/Disease Block is a passive ability that blocks a percentage oncoming disease status. Like all status resistances, it scales with age; a creature only reaches its maximum resistance at age 100. If a creature has a Block Disease of 100%, it is immune at age 100, and a negative value indicates that a creature receives additional disease at that percentage.
- Block Poison/Poison Block is a passive ability that grants resistance to poison status once they reach max age (100). Like many other block defenses, it works by blocking a percentage of the ailment received. If a creature's Poison Block is 100%, then they are immune to those stats (and will be healed instantly if they are somehow applied) once they reach age 100.
- Climber is a passive ability that allows a creature to walk on walls along with ceilings and some uncollidable terrain if climbing on the right angle. To detach from a wall or ceiling, press Space on PC. On Mobile, press the dedicated Detach button, or, if the creature has Jump, press the jump button.
- Defensive Corrosion/Corrosive Body is an ability that defensively deals Corrosion Status when bitten. Stacks with itself.
- Defensive Disease is a passive ability, where a creature defensively inflicts a specific amount of melee Disease status on an attacker upon getting bitten.
- Defensive Poison/Melee Toxin is a passive ability that makes a creature toxic by melee - that is, being bitten by another creature will cause the attacker to receive Poison Status, as much as the bitten creature has labeled on their stats and affected by modifiers such as some plushies or resistances. Stacks with itself.
- Iron Stomach is a passive ability which allows the user to eat rotten meat without getting negative ailments from it - preventing getting the Sickly Status.
- Poison Area/Area Poison is an active ability which upon activation inflicts 5 stacks (15 seconds) of the Poison Status to all nearby creatures within 100 studs with a 90 second cooldown.
- Self-Destruct is an active ability that can only be used at 25% health or less. When activated, all creatures in a 100 stud radius will be dealt 30% of their total health (before weight multipliers), 10 burn, and knockback. Base damage values will be modified based on the weights of the creatures involved. Using Self-Destruct does not immediately kill the user, instead leaving them at 2.5% of their total health, but can kill opponents. It has a cooldown of 300 seconds (5 minutes).
- Totem is an active ability which allows the adult creature to drop a "lamp" totem that looks like radioactive green mud, which stays for 2 minutes. It will affect any user in range with a lingering effect of stacking 1 extra Of the Status Effect (f.ex. poison... mentioned in detail on the advanced section) per second, wherever they are, until are out of range. These totems can be destroyed if hit enough times.
- Toxic Trail is a passive ability activated only while the creature is below a customized % health value, leaving behind a trail made up of segments lasting 5 seconds. Stepping on the trail causes 3% damage per second and 3 poison per second.
- Toxic Trap is an active ability inheritor of legacy's Toxic Pile. This ability creates a toxic mud pile that stays for a time and will slowly poison anyone who touches it (excluding the ability user).
