The Jotunhel (Pronounced /jotunel/ (click to listen)) is a Tier 4 flying carnivore. The species is not currently available, but was available in the Christmas Gacha during the Winter Event 2020-2021, in the Christmas Store for 15,000 Bells during the Winter Event 2021-2022, in the Christmas Store for 7,000 Gifts during the Winter Event 2022-2023, in the Christmas Shop for 8,000 Candy Canes during the Winter Event 2023-2024, and in the Winter Event 2024-2025, either from the Christmas Shop for 10,800 Candy Canes, or after completing the Yeti's Revenge mission, or as a rare drop from the Yeti Bossfight minigame. It is an Event creature. The trial version is available in the Trial Creatures Shop for 200^♂/2000^♀ Shooms.

Description

“	Jotunhel are mammalian semi-aquatic fliers who rely on a varied diet of fish and land creatures. They are well balanced fliers and swimmers. Their fluff and blubber protects their body from hard hits.	„
	~ In-game Description

Appearance

The Jotunhel is a large flying mammalian-esque creature that resembles a combination of a wyvern and a seal or sea lion. Jotunhel's thick fur is adorned in various patterns of stripes, having stripes on its jaw, neck, thighs, wings, and tail. Jotunhel has a large jaw that is nearly identical in size to the upper section of its head, giving it a robust appearance. Jotunhel has two sets of eyes, both of which are similar in size and stacked diagonally to each-other. Jotunhel's large wings resemble the fins of a leopard seal, with humanoid hands tucked underneath the wings. The hands are used primarily for it to sprint; likely due to its legs being too short to reliably achieve fast speed without being off-balance. It has a long and sleek tail, complete with a shark-like fin near the middle area of the tail. The Jotunhel has webbed digitigrade legs, each with four toes. The Jotunhel's main colors consist of blacks, greys, whites, blue-greys, oranges/browns, and light blues. Its secondary colors consist of reds, black, richer blues, greys and whites.

Males

Males have additional fur, located along their chin and cheeks.

Females

Females have extra whiskers located above their four (4) eyes.

Abilities

Main Article: Creature Abilities

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

• Agile Swimmer is passive ability, similar to legacy's Streamlined, which buffs the player when submerged underwater for more than a second, receiving the following buffs:
  • 100% more stamina regeneration
  • 50% more total stamina
  • 75% more walk speed
  • 75% more sprint speed
  • 15% more oxygen, if the creature is a semi-aquatic; 180% more oxygen otherwise.
  • Additionally, like with legacy Streamlined, a glider semi-aquatic (and an aqua-glider) can abuse of the extra stamina to increase the number of glide flaps it can perform from the water boosted, since until they touch the ground or stop gliding, the boosted stamina amount will remain.
  • Note that since most of these are multipliers, creature incapable of naturally recovering stamina underwater do not get any stamina regeneration boost (as any fraction of 0 is still 0).
• 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 Attack is a passive ability, where a creature offensively inflicts a specific amount of melee bleed status on a creature with every bite (not 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 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.
• 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.
• Dart is an active ability of the special control Jump/Dart/Glide/Flight, similar to ambush in terms of being a temporary speed boost that propels the creature forward, but restricted to water and usually far less stamina-consuming. All creatures capable of jump and with the proper semi-aquatic mobility type can dart when underwater. A creature cannot dart while strafing nor outside water, but a dart will become a jump if the impulse propels the creature outside water.
  • Dart has an associated speed boost and stamina consumption for every creature. If there's not enough stamina, the creature cannot dart.
• Diver is a passive ability that grants a creature the ability to temporarily keep flying underwater for a short period. The exact period is displayed in the information section, in seconds. As a side effect, and probably due to buggy behavior, it sometimes allows the user of this ability to regain stamina underwater, particularly during violent winds.
• Flight is an active ability pertaining to the special control Jump/Dart/Glide/Flight and inherent to all Fliers and legacy mobility type All-Terrain creatures have this ability. However, due to the fact all-terrain got absorbed into Flier, this means that with purely recode terminology, only fliers have the ability. Creatures with flight ability as dominant cannot jump per se (only with jump superseding flight if jump has a certain jump age value), they instead enter flight or glide mode - however some creatures may also present the jump ability replacing the flight one as the dominant at some point in their live stage. Flying and takeoff both take stamina. If there's not enough stamina, the creature cannot fly. A creature with flight can switch between flight and glide and vice-versa without that switch costing stamina.
• Frosty is a passive ability, equivalent to Legacy's Winter Tag, and causes the creature with the tag to receive an +25% stamina regeneration, +25% health regeneration, -25% thirst depletion, and -25% hunger depletion during Winter and Famine seasons.
• Glide is an active ability pertaining to the special control Jump/Dart/Glide/Flight and inherent to all gliders and glider semi-aquatics have this ability as primary. However, due to the fact glider semi-aquatics got absorbed into Semi-Aquatics, the correct recode terminology would be to say that all Gliders and a few Semi-Aquatics and Aquatics have this ability as primary. Flier (and all-terrain) creatures have this ability as well, but the Jump/Dart/Glide/Flight button is not their primary, but the toggle glide button. Creatures with glide ability cannot jump per se, they instead enter flight or glide mode, unless jump supersedes them via some jump age value. If there's not enough stamina, the creature can hardly glide. Depending on some creature factors like tier and glide stamina regeneration, as well as some environmental conditions, a creature can or cannot regain stamina while gliding.
• Grab is an active ability, the recode's equivalent of Legacy's creature "grab a lighter creature", allowing a creature to pick up a lower-tiered creature. Unlike legacy's, it has several pecularities, among them that grabbing is no longer based on weight, but tier. Another peculiarity is that grabbed creatures cannot escape until 5 seconds later. After that, the grabbed creature can struggle by using any button and will release such creature from the grab. The user can ungrab at any moment by pressing the same button used to grab. A creature darting from outside water will grab any creature it finds automatically. Interestingly enough, using this ability may also make a piece of grabbed food drop.
• Water Breath is an active ability using the breath control (C on PC or on Mobile) that is a type of Elemental Breath that inflicts 2 DPS (1% PER HIT). It has a Capacity of 10, a Regen Rate of 2.5, a Range of 220 studs, and has a Critical chance of 10%. It can also inflict the BlurredVision ailment (Probability = 60%, no stacking).

Trivia

• Concept by malarkeii.
  • The Jotunhel was inspired by leopard seals.
  • The name "Jotunhel" may have been inspired by the name Jötunheimr, home to jötnars in Norse mythology, as Jotunhel are giant themselves. It may have also been inspired by Helheim and/or Hel, the frigid realm of the dead and the goddess that presides over it respectively.
• Re-animated by @Mukudori#0053 on the official CoS Discord.
• Jotunhel was the 2^nd creature to be added to the Winter Gacha pool during the Winter Event of 2020-2021.
  • It is confirmed to come back during Winter Events, along with the Boreal Warden, Sleirnok and other Winter Event creatures.
• It is the second "all-terrain" creature to be added, with the first being Nytoltalus.
• Jotunhel is the first creature to receive the Water Breath ability.
• This creature once had a skin coloring bug, a single piece of the left wing will turn a different color (normally black), regardless of the chosen color. This fixes itself once growing to teen or adult.
• Thanks to the colors on its second color palette, many people color the Jotunhel to look like a parrot/macaw even since early Legacy and being amongst the earliest creature-parrot skin trends. As such, some people do not only nickname them as "jot", but as "parrot/macaw" creature, even if nothing of their looks resembles such birds.
• The Jotunhel once borrowed calls from the Aolenus before new calls were added on May 31^st, 2021.
