Description
| “ | Trutholbyeva, a fiercely aggressive nocturnal herbivore, typically lives alone or in small groups. Emerging from caves at night to feed on bushes, it retreats to dark places during the day. Its back teeth are used for chewing, while front teeth are adapted for ramming into enemies. | „ |
| ~ In-game Description |
Behavior
- Trutholbyeva commonly befriend other species, and are almost entirely docile unless attacked or if another critter eats their food.
- The taste of too much blood drives Trutholbyeva into a frenzied state, which usually ends in a death induced by recklessness.
- Trutholbyeva are highly aggressive at night, and will usually wander anywhere on land.
- Trutholbyeva parents take extreme care of their young, protecting them to the death from any predator.
- Trutholbyeva prefer to travel alone or in medium-sized family groups of up to 7. However during the day, they gather in large caves by the hundreds, and hang on the ceiling, walls, and floor until night returns.
- Trutholbyevas have two heads, however only one head has a brain. The other head works more as an extra limb.
- The front head spikes, often confused as teeth, are used to ram into enemies. This usually causes them to then get stuck in an opponents body, and when this happens they are extremely hard to pull out and cause heavy bleeding to the opponent.
- Trutholbyevas can fly, but it's usually to relocate to new food areas, escaping danger too strong to fight, or to ambush trespassers near their cave.
- Disabled and elderly Trutholbyevas stay in caves and forests, and are cared for by younger generations.
- Photovores are very commonly kept as pets in colonies.
Artist Headcanon
- Trutholbyevas are adapted to eat plants, however can still eat meat due to their ancestors' omnivorous traits it needed to survive in deep sea caves.
- Trutholbyevas can be born with one head due to genetics, although this is rarer than the two headed variant.
- Trutholbyeva who experience the Dazzling Flash on them will go permanently blind.

Abilities
Main Article: Creature Abilities
This section is intended to list and describe the abilities of the Trutholbyeva. (editor list)
- Berserk is a passive ability that activates at below 20% health, which increases stamina regeneration by 100% and decreases bite cooldown by 50%.
- 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.
- 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.
- Charge (Gore) or Gore Charge is an specific type of Charge that inflicts Bleed Status and Deep Wounds 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.
- Defensive Bleed is a passive ability, where a creature defensively inflicts a specific amount of melee bleed status on an attacker upon getting bitten.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Serrated Teeth is a passive ability which offensively inflicts Deep Wounds status when biting.

Trivia
- CatboyNathann created Trutholbyeva to be their developer creature because they like things that aren't what they seem, hence the fact that it is an herbivore despite its carnivorous appearance.
- Trutholbyeva's design is based on the inaccurate reconstructions of Helicoprion (a prehistoric cartilaginous fish that lived during the Permian period), whip scorpions, and lobsters.
- Redesign by TyrantDinosaur889 on the Creatures of Sonaria Discord. Redesigned model released on 11/26/2021.
- Modeled and animated by Nathan. Erythia helped with finalizing animations.
- Trutholbyeva borrows aggro sounds from the Aolenus into friendly sounds; it also borrows Pero's aggro sound with some changes.
- Trutholbyeva has had the most remodels of any Developer Creature, or any creature in general.
- The Trutholbyeva Remodel V2 was scrapped as Nathan did not like the appearance, and Nathan confirmed the Trutholbyeva would get a full anatomy change in V3.
- The first 'remodel' is scrapped but the model itself will be publicly available for use.
- Pre-redesign Trutholbyeva had purple/violet blood. In real life, the change in color is caused by hemerythrin, a respiratory pigment of a purplish/violet color once oxygenated, replacing hemoglobin in several invertebrates.
- The current redesign lacks purple blood and instead has the default red blood.
- Pre-remodel had the third highest bleed (13) at the time, with the Magnarothus having the highest bleed of 20, and Syroudon having the second-highest bleed of 15, and had the highest bleed out of all the herbivores in-game.
- With the remodel, it has been lowered to 6.
- Pre-remodel Trutholbyeva could use its animations to stay still on top of lava without taking damage.
- The remodel is incapable of doing so.
- Trutholbyeva's Developer tag was removed when its remodel got released. Later, on March 2022, its tag got added once again, despite its dev being retired.
- Even so, it could still only be purchased in the Developer Creatures Shop for
300 Robux. - Trutholbyeva permanently lost its developer creature condition and become a Robux Shop creature on October 28, 2022, keeping its price of 300 Robux.
- It took twice as long to incubate an egg in a nest due to its status as a developer creature.
- Even so, it could still only be purchased in the Developer Creatures Shop for
- The remodel is the first confirmed creature to possess two heads, as well as one of the first three creatures that possess more than one head along with Sar'Hingaro/Ahri'Tahmuk and Cavengauu.
- Trutholbyeva had planned an ability known as life leech/body decay, which would “steal x amount of health” from a target and “gain 1.2-2 x health” when applied. It was also stated that health gained should always be higher than damage inflicted.
- Finally the Trutholbyeva gained this ability on the same update it lost its developer creature tag.
- There is a UGC item for this creature, made by TamBrush, called Trutholbyeva Wings, which is purchasable for 120 Robux.
- The Trutholbyeva is one of the only creatures to not move its head when looking at something; the same happens to Kavouradis.
