Lore
- This Warden is a caring individual, nurturing the progression of life on each World. Zohutek sets paths for individuals to follow, leading them to others of their kind. In such a harsh world, partnership is difficult, and raising the next generation is even more of a challenge. Zohutek keeps a close eye on the possible extinction of any species.
Appearance
The Ardor Warden is an ursine creature that has a large build with thick forearms, a small head with bear-like features, and a long tail with drooping patches of fur that are divided by two bands. Its posture resembles that of a binturong, which is also known as a bearcat. It has a pair of long, deer-like antlers that drop to its shoulders with a glowing petal-like circular object attached to each end of the horns. It has a large flower-like structure on its back and armor plates situated in several places along its body, one of which floats above the head. Each armor plate has a repeated symbol resembling a crescent moon or a lopsided heart turned up with a dot above it. The Ardor Warden has eight toes on each of its front paws and seven on its back paws.
Males
Males have extra fur on their chests.
Females
Females have additional tufts of fur on both sides of the base of their tails.
Abilities
Main Article: Creature Abilities
This section is intended to list and describe the abilities of the Ardor Warden. (editor list)
- Agile Swimmer is a passive ability that causes the player to receive the following buffs when submerged underwater for more than a second:
- 100% more stamina regeneration
- 50% more total stamina
- 75% more walk speed
- 75% more sprint speed
- A % increase in oxygen (oxygen increase percentage is based off the amount of oxygen the creature originally has)
Additionally, a glider semi-aquatic (and an aqua-glider) can abuse the extra stamina to increase the number of glide flaps it can perform from the water boosted. Until they touch the ground or stop gliding, the boosted stamina amount will remain.
- Ambush is a recode-only ability that allows a temporary speed boost according to an ambush multiplier inherent to the species. It can be toggled by pressing the correct active ability key, which may vary between creatures. It automatically deactivates after either a set period of time, when stamina runs out, or after halting movement, whichever happens first. Ambush can be used while sprinting. Activating the ability while another instance of the ability is active will not stack max time and stamina consumption. Additionally, Ambushing disrupts strafing.
- Berserk is a passive ability that activates at below 20% health. It increases stamina regeneration by 100% and decreases bite cooldown by 50%.
- Bleed Attack is a passive ability, where the user inflicts a specific amount of bleed status on a creature with every bite, excluding with breath/ranged abilities or reflecting abilities. A negative value means that it heals an amount of such status upon biting.
- Bleed Block/Block Bleed is a percentage based passive ability that grants the user resistance to getting bleed status from melee attacks at minimum. If an attacker deals 5 bleed per hit and the receiver has 60% Block Bleed, then the receiver gets only 2 of that 5 bleed. This ability is gained gradually as the creature ages. If a creature's Block Bleed is 100%, then they are immune to Bleed inflicted by melee direct attacks once fully grown. If a creature's Block Bleed is negative, it may indicate an extra vulnerability to the status effect.
- Burn Block/Block Burn is a passive ability that grants the user resistance to getting burn status from melee attacks. It is percentage based. For example, if an attacker deals 5 burn per hit and the receiver has 60% block burn, then the receiver gets only 2 of that 5 burn.
- If a creature's block burn is 100%, then they are immune to Burn inflicted by melee direct attacks once fully grown. This ability is gained gradually as the creature ages. A negative value may indicate that the creature is vulnerable to burn effects.
- Block Necropoison is a resistance against the Necropoison Status that reduces the amount of status absorbed and damage dealt by it when accumulating this status.
- 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.
- Breath Damage Resistance is a passive ability that decreases the percentage of damage received by the user from breath abilities. A 100% breath resistance means full immunity from the damage dealt from breaths, but not for the status effects they afflict, which remain unaffected.
- Charge (Gore) or Gore Charge is an specific type of Charge that inflicts Bleed Status and Deep Wounds on the victim.
- Damage Link is an active ability that can affect up to three creatures at once within a 60 stud radius centered on the user. When any one of the linked creatures is damaged/healed by an unlinked creature, the other linked creatures take 80% of the damage/heal taken by the initially hit creature. The links last for 20 seconds, but can be broken if the linked creatures put 90 studs or greater between them. This ability has a 45 second cooldown after use.
- First Strike is a passive ability that grants the user increased damage while they are above 75% health. The damage increase is depends on the creature and is reflected in its stat menu.
- Warden's Rage is an active toggleable ability that grants the user an increase in damage capabilities according to how much HP they are missing with a status effect called Warden's Rage. This ability only appears once the creature has reached adult age, and like invisibility, it can be deactivated at any time but has a 30 seconds cooldown between activation triggers. If the ability is disabled mid-combat, the status effect will remain until next reactivation.
- During Warden's rage:
- Stamina Regeneration gets doubled.
- Passive health regeneration is disabled.
- Attack damage is multiplied by
(7.5 x WardenStrength) + 1(whereWardenStrengthgoes from 0 at 100% HP to 1 at 50% HP and below. This means that in the range of 100% it deals base damage, while steadily increasing until it hits its peak of 8.5x damage, and stays at that 8.5x peak from 50% to 0%. Take note that the wardens' damage increase can be low when attacked with low damage attacks. Be aware of low tiers with low damage but with high status effects.
- During Warden's rage:
- Warden's Resistance is a passive ability that prevents ailments from being taken below 50% health.
- Wing Shredder is a passive ability that allows the user to offensively deal the Shredded Wings status to a creature they bite..
