The Minawii is a Tier 1 semi-aquatic omnivore. The species is available in the Omnivores Gacha, the Semi-Aquatic Gacha, and the Toxic Gacha. The trial version is available in the Trial Creatures Shop for 10^♂/100^♀ Shooms.

Description

“	The Minawii is a creature that's shy and timid. They hide in deep oceans where they call cold coral reefs their home. Whenever they see creatures approaching them, they will swim away as fast as possible.	„
	~ In-game Description

Appearance

The Minawii is a small, grub-like hexapedal creature. It has two fuzzy antennae and moss growing on its back, which foster small mushrooms. Its back is relatively armored, covered in a thick, shell-like material. Its tail is thick and ends with a large bulb-like structure, similar to the abdomen of a firefly.

Minawii has no gender dimorphism.

Abilities

Main Article: Creature Abilities

This section is intended to list and describe the abilities of the Minawii. (editor 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.
• Burrower is an active ability that allows the creature to place up to 4 (or an specific creature limit) burrows and burrow entrances 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 that 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.
• 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.
• Defensive Necropoison is a passive ability that makes a creature necro-toxic by melee - that is, being bitten by another creature will cause the attacker to receive Necropoison Status, as much as the bitten creature has labeled on their stats and affected by modifiers such as some plushies or resistances. Does not stack with itself, but gets worse over time unless the creature is actively healing it.
• 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.
• Egg Stealer is an active ability that allows certain creatures to actively interact with the interact buttons with nests in order to eat the eggs from the nest directly, or steal their Eggs as edible food to consume later. Only creatures with this ability can consume such eggs. If a creature has this ability, eggs are also highlighted with an egg icon when scenting.
• Guilt/Defensive Guilt is a passive ability, and equivalent to legacy's Guilt, inflicts an amount of Guilty Status upon bitten.
• 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 parabollic trajectory jump on land, thanks to recode's realistic gravity, and based on the creature's inertia at the time of the jump. 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.
• Latch is an active ability, the recode's equivalent of Legacy's creature "grab a heavier creature", allowing a creature to latch onto a higher-tiered creature. Unlike legacy's, it has several pecularities, among them that latching is no longer based on weight, but tier. Another peculiarity is that creatures that the latcher has latched into cannot escape until 5 seconds later. After that, the grabbed creature can struggle by pressing using any button and will release such creature from the grab. The user can unlatch at any moment by pressing the same button used to latch on the first place.
