Appearance
The Grysallmog is a large hexapedal creature, having four main legs as well as two smaller appendages located underneath its head. It has six eyes, three on each side of its head. Its body is covered in many leaves that resemble carrot tops, most notably spanning from behind its neck all the way down to its 'tail', which wholly consists of the leaves. Underneath its leaves, the Grysallmog bears a scaly body and an underside coated with thick tufts of fur. All of its limbs, including its two arms, end in scaly, clawed appendages. Its legs bear an orange, root-like 'frill' that can also be seen covering most of the creature's face. The Grysallmog also has a prominent frilled nose resembling that of a star-nosed mole. Its default colours consist of dull yellow-orange, earthy browns, shades of muted green, and a pop of bright orange.
Males
Males have a large frilled nose at the front of their heads.
Females

] ability list:- Ambush is a recode-only ability, inheritor of the Ambush control in Legacy, and thus shares some similarities to it. Ambush can be toggled by pressing (not holding) the correct active ability key (which may vary between creatures). It will automatically deactivate after a set period of time, after stamina runs out, or after halting movement, whichever happens first. Like legacy ambush, recode Ambush ability allows a temporary speed boost according to an ambush multiplier inherent to the species (e.g. x 1.5 or x 1.25), usually granting a faster Sprint (except when the multiplier is x1.0 or lower). It will not be stopped by entering or leaving water once initiated; but at a higher stamina cost and a possible decrease in turn speed, directly making a creature unable to turn while ambushing. Similar to legacy, a creature can know if ambush is toggled not only from the the evident speed boost while moving, but because when pressing the activation button, the camera FOV zooms out a tiny bit. Ambush can be used while sprinting. However, unlike Legacy ambush, pressing the appropriate key again will not stack max time and stamina consumption, and can be initiated underwater by creatures with the appropriate mobility type (however, it still keeps the Legacy characteristic of keeping creatures not adapted to water from initiating ambush underwater). Additionally, Ambushing disrupts strafing.
- 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.
- 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 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.
- Burrower is an active ability that allows the creature to place up to 4 (or a specific creature limit) burrows anywhere on the map, and use other burrows from other creatures. Burrow entrances are two-way, so the exit can be accessed inside the burrow. If a creature places more entrances than the maximum allowed, the oldest burrow and exit will be replaced. A creature cannot place a burrow entrance inside its own burrow or inside someone else's burrow. Sometimes some creatures can place on certain areas one-way entries, which can lead to making a burrow prison. There is a 3 second cooldown between entering and exiting burrows, not including entering after its initial placement.
- 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.
- Day/Night Time Status are an environmental status effect that confers a +5% damage, +25% stamina regen, -10% growth time, +15% health regen; and -5% damage, -25% stamina regen, -15% health regen; respectively, to photovores and photocarnivores.
- Injury Attack is an ability that offensively deals injury status when biting. A negative value means that it heals an amount of such status upon biting.
- Jump is an active ability pertaining to the special control Jump/Dart/Glide/Flight and inheritor of the Early Legacy Release jump ability (an ability which never made it past Legacy's Early Release), by pressing space allows a creature to project a parabolic trajectory jump on land, thanks to recode's realistic gravity, and based on the creature's inertia at the time of the jump. However, creatures can turn during jumping, and sometimes running at the same time of the trajectory allows for a limited trajectory correction. If a semi-aquatic (or all-terrain/flier with semi-aquatic characteristics) creature with Jump starts swimming and tries to jump, they will Dart instead. Not all creatures have this ability, even if their mobility type is compatible.
- Jump has an associated speed boost, stamina consumption (and below that threshold a creature will be unable to jump), and age limit for every creature. Beyond that age limit, a creature will be unable to jump - that field is commonly used for creatures which will develop Glide or Flight on a later growth stage. In fact, if on our infoboxes only appears a jump age stat, that means that the creature has actually jump 0 (no jump) and on the stage that jump supersedes Glide or Flight, it is equivalent as to being unable to jump nor flight nor glide.
- Poison Attack/Melee Venom is a passive ability that makes a creature venomous by melee - that is, biting another creature will cause the victim to receive Poison Status, as much as the attacker has labeled on their stats and affected by modifiers such as some plushies or resistances. Stacks with itself. A negative value means that it heals an amount of such status upon biting.
- Thorn Trap is an active ability which allows a creature to drop a trap of thorny plant growth. When a creature triggers a trap, it disappears, and they receive six stacks of Bleed/Bleed Status (affected by bleed defense) and two stacks of FREEZE, temporarily immobilizing the target's actions. It has a 35-second cooldown. Multiple thorn traps can be placed and remain by the same creature. If more than 3 thorn traps are placed at one time, the oldest one will despawn.

Trivia
- Concept by Stood_04 in the Creatures of Sonaria Discord.
- Inspired by carrots.
- According to Stood, "it's face and limbs are like the root, and the stem and leaves are "pulled" back around the body and tail- I like to call it a mole cricket, but it's more like mole + grasshopper".
- "Early on this creature had a more cutesy grub-slug version with a beetle-like horn that sprouted into a tree branch".
- Modeled by MidnightAJC8308.
- Animated by KaidaLynch.
- The Grysallmog is the second creature to gain an animation where it sinks into the ground with only a small part of it's body visible. The first creature to do this was the Kavouradis.
