Artist Headcanon
- Volnoirve are able to control the concentration of heat within their body, often being very hot to the touch but taking care not to burn the ground beneath them.
- Their ashy aura is the result of shedding and burning off excess weight.
- When Volnoirve hibernate during the cold months, their body begins to harden, and fire seeps through the cracks; compare to hardened lava.
- Individuals whose flame appears to be going out are avoided or shunned, they are seen as a bad omen once their fire goes out.
- Consuming large amounts of vegetation will turn them and their fire a yellow-ish hue, although this is only done so if food is scarce.
Appearance
The Volnoirve is a quadruped that has similar features to a nian (Chinese New Year lion) or qilin with the body of a pig/boar, with some neural-spine-sail-like crest covering its back, with its tail imitating part of the spine sail. It has smoke particles coming from its mouth and ash/dust on its back. Its head additionally bears two pairs of long, curved teeth sticking out from the rest of teeth like tusks, and two small pieces of armor plate between its lower and mid eyes. It may also resemble an Aztec lion due to the form in its head.
Males
Males have an additional cartoonish-smoke-like tuft of fur over its eyes.
Females
Females lack the tuft of fur males present.
Abilities
Main Article: Creature Abilities
This section is intended to list and describe the abilities of the Volnoirve. (editor list)
- 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.
