Description
| “ | Although a herbivore, Zethines is not to be messed with. These large, aggressive creatures possess katana-like claws on each hand that can cut through tree and bone. Unlike ordinary Keratin-based claws, these razors are infused with bone and various other materials to make their claws super sharp and nearly indestructible. | „ |
| ~ In-game Description |
Appearance
The Zethines has a uniquely-shaped body, resembling the dinosaur Deinocheirus, with its large humped back, huge arms and claws, head shape, and overall posture. Zethines is decorated with extravagant extensions of thick spines that become fairly large at the shoulders, back, at the beginning of the tail and toward its end, forming a sort of club. Vibrant yellow-green, black, and shades of blue make up the majority of the body. It has a small head with six small eyes and with scaly plates at the base. The snout of the Zethines is also curved in shape, resembling a beak of certain dinosaurs. Zethines has a very long neck with small appendages running along the side. The Zethines also boasts large top-skull horns to the sides of the head, and two snout horns. Its feathered front arms are very large and beefy, and end in huge hands with 3 fingers and a thumb. Each finger is equipped with a long, curved claw. Its legs are very small in comparison to the arms and end in 4-toed feet. One of the three toes sports a slightly larger sickle claw, similar to Dromaeosaurid dinosaurs.
Males
Males head top horns resemble Ceratopsian dinosaurs, pointing upwards; and present longer snout horns.
Females
Females head top horns resemble bighorn sheep and rams, curling downwards; and have shorter snout horns.
Abilities
Main Article: Creature Abilities
This section is intended to list and describe the abilities of the Zethines. (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.
- 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 (Gore) or Gore Charge is an specific type of Charge that inflicts Bleed Status and Deep Wounds on the victim.
- Defensive Bleed is a passive ability, where a creature defensively inflicts a specific amount of melee bleed status on an attacker upon getting bitten.
- 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.
- 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.
