~ In-game Description |
Behavior
- Despite what the In-game Description says, Reeox are social animals and live in packs with a maximum of 20 individuals at one time.
- The leader of a Reeox pack is ALWAYS female.
- Each Reeox has its own way of hunting, and no individual is the same.
- Reeox are notorious for running after and hunting the same prey until it's too exhausted to run anymore.
- During courting, females are usually the ones that court the males, not the other way around.
Artist Headcanon
- Reeox pups are born without teeth and cannot hunt for themselves.
Appearance
The Reeox is a quadrupedal canine-like creature. Its default colors consist of black, greys, and blues. It has two pairs of pupil-less purple eyes, slightly tattered long ears, and two pairs of fur-like structures at the cheeks. Its exposed jaws reveal blue gums and sharp white teeth, with the nostrils situated higher up the snout. The exposed fleshy area of its jaws forms a forked structure at its forehead. Big, sharp blue structures protrude from the top and sides of its thick neck. More of these structures can be seen along the sides of its upper back, atop its front limbs, elbows, and long tail. The Reeox has tufts of grey fur on its chest and black spikes protruding from its lower back to the base of the tail, and near the tail tip. Its front limbs are more muscular than the back limbs. Each limb is equipped with sharp white claws: four on the front and three on the back.
Males
Males have no additional features.
Females
Females have spikes protruding below their ankles.
Abilities
Main Article: Creature Abilities
This section is intended to list and describe the abilities of the Reeox. (editor list)
- 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.
- 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.
- Charge (Power) or Power Charge is a specific type of Charge that temporarily increases the user's damage slightly and inflicts Shredded Wings on the victim.
- 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.
- Disease Attack is a passive ability, where a creature inflicts a specific amount of melee Disease 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.
- 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.
- Iron Stomach is a passive ability which allows the user to eat rotten meat without getting negative ailments from it - preventing getting the Sickly Status.
- 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.
- Life Leech is an active ability that allows the user to heal themselves for a certain percentage (%) of damage done to other players while the ability is active.
- 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.
- Serrated Teeth is a passive ability which offensively inflicts Deep Wounds status when biting.
- Wing Shredder is a passive ability that allows a creature to offensively deal Shredded Wings status to a creature they bite, with an amount specific of the user creature.

Trivia
- Designed by CannedBandit (Poky105) on the Creatures of Sonaria Discord.
- For the Reeox's inspiration, the concept creator CannedBandit (Poky105) says "When I made the concept I based it off of a hyena/alien and was heavily inspired by Ark's ravager. When it comes to the markings, i wanted it to resemble tribal body paint in a way. I really didn't have much inspiration besides that."
- Reeox was designed in early beta of Legacy but was scrapped due to the different markings for male and female. According to Poky105, "It would have required 2 separate models to be put in game which, if I remember correctly, was not possible at the time."
- The concept creator of Reeox had planned to make a re-design Reeox into a medium/large neurotoxic, semi-aquatic carnivore but never had the time to do so.
- Modeled by CatboyNathann.
- Redesign concept by dragonwhiteblackblue.
- The redesigned Reeox was inspired by the blue version of the previous design, Ravager from Ark, pit bulls, and stone fish.
- Redesign modeled by ThunderBoo666.
- On January 17th, 2022, the Reeox was deemed scrapped by developers. However, on July 1st, 2024, a redesign was announced and confirmed to be coming to the game.
