Description

The Boreal Warden, a very rare and mysterious creature that is hard to spot in Sonaria. These giants are quite passive, helping neighboring herbivores who seek protection. Legends say that these Boreal Warden's are often referred to as "Qhualhul" by ancient creatures who would worship and respect these wardens during times of harsh winters.
~ In-game Description

Lore

  • This Warden is known to be set in its ways. Self-centered and ignorant, conflicts between Wardens are often instigated by Qhualhul due to their differing values and virtues compared to the other deities.


Appearance

The Boreal Warden is a titanic, quadrupedal creature with a similar but frail build compared to that of the Lmakosauruodon. It does not seem to possess flesh in some areas with bone-like structures for its legs. It appears to have a beak for a mouth, its head resembling an owl. It sports several large head feathers resembling that of Native American war bonnets. It also has a cloak over its back, draping onto its tail. Bioluminescent bulb-like shards resembling Christmas lights are found floating all around its body, mainly at the base of the tail and the sides of the creature, while feathers are found on its face and its back, arranged by size. Lastly, large chunks of ice (sometimes floating) are located on its neck, belly, and back. Its color palette consists of grays, cyans, dark blues, and blue-grays. Floating above its beak is the Boreal Warden's signature feathery Warden mask.

Male

Males have three feathers floating next to each leg.

Female

Females have three feathers floating above their tails.

The floating feathers present with each gender have glowing orbs present on them, the same glowing "bulbs" that are found on the body of the Warden.


Abilities

This section is intended to list and describe the abilities of the Boreal Warden. (editor list)

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.
  • Burn Block/Block Burn is a passive ability that grants the creature resistance to getting burn status from melee attacks at the very least, and every other source at most. It is percentage based, e.g. 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, that is, a creature with 100% burn defense will have some fraction of burn defense while growing, being such fraction bigger as it grows.
  • Frostbite Block/Block Frostbite is a passive ability that grants the creature resistance to getting frostbite status from melee attacks at the very least, and every other source at most. It is percentage based, e.g. if an attacker deals 5 frostbite per hit and the receiver has 60% block frostbite, then the receiver gets only 2 of that 5 frostbite.
  • Injury Block/Block Injury is a passive ability that grants the creature resistance to getting Injury status from melee attacks at the very least, and every other source at most. It is percentage based, e.g. if an attacker deals 5 Injury per hit and the receiver has 60% Injury Block, then the receiver gets only 2 of that 5 Injury.
  • 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 which decreases the percentage of damage received by the user from breath abilities, a 100% breath resistance means full immunity from the damage dealt from elemental breaths, but not for the status effects they afflict, which remain unaffected.
  • Frostbite touch/Defensive Frostbite is an ability that defensively deals frostbite when bitten.
  • Frosty is a passive ability, equivalent to Legacy's Winter Tag, causes the creature with the tag to receive a buff of +25% stamina regeneration, +25% health regeneration, -25% thirst depletion, and -25% hunger depletion during Winter and Famine seasons, and prevents getting hypothermia from blizzards.
  • Warden's Rage, unlike legacy version, is an active toggleable ability that grants the user an increase in damage capabilities according to how much hurt they are, HP-wise, with a status effect called Warden's Rage. This ability only appears once the creature has reached maturity (that is, adult stage, age 67, unless something blocks the model growth like being inside a too small cave), and like invisibility, it can be deactivated anytime but has a 30 seconds cooldown between activation triggers. However if it is disabled mid-combat, while the halo effect will disappear, the status effect will remain until next reactivation and may allow for extra damage stacking in a buggy behavior.
    • During Warden's rage:
      • Stamina Regeneration gets doubled.
      • Passive health regeneration is disabled.
      • Attack damage is multiplied by (7.5 x WardenStrength) + 1 (where WardenStrength goes 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.
      • The color of the halo, unlike legacy, is kept the same cyan tone, and no particles occur.
  • Warden's Resistance is a passive ability that prevents ailments from being taken below 50% health.

Trivia

  • Concept by Stood_04.
    • According to Stood, "more or less just inspired by owls, could maybe say giraffes for the build but I honestly just went for a tall bird- it's intended to appear like it has layers of fabric draped over it".
    • Also, "it was originally intended to have two tails".
    • The Boreal Warden was "an unrelated creature design that Stood made in their freetime that they repurposed."
    • Lore-wise, Boreal Warden is also called Qhualhul - Sentinel of hope and Bringer of Winter.
  • Modeled by Erythia.
  • Re-animated by @Mukudori#0053 on the official CoS Discord.
  • Developers and Testers gave subtle hints about its name on the Creatures of Sonaria Discord server prior to release.
    • People called (and still do) this creature "Toe" because the first leaked image was of its toes.
  • Confirmed to return every year in its corresponding event, along with all other Winter Event creatures.
    • The Boreal Warden was only available for 40-44 hours after its first release and a week after its second release.
  • There are several bugged spots on the Boreal Warden which will always revert to default colors when played in-game. Be careful when using appearance change tokens or buying special palettes for this creature, as the colors may not turn out how you want them to. This has been an issue since its release.
  • The Boreal Warden is currently the biggest creature in game.
