Common Name: Platyhystrix
Species: Platyhystrix Statucus
Time: Permian
Diet: Omnivore
Temperament: Skittish

Wild
Platyhystrix, a small and unusual amphibian found in hostile regions, can defend themselves by releasing a colorful smoke puff when startled. The food they consume allows them to have unique abilities that make them dangerous. Worrisome creatures to tame, startled from the simplest of actions at times, be careful not to breathe in the smoke. 

Domesticated
Platyhystrix can be tamed and used by survivors by feeding them narcotics. The amphibians can release toxic fumes to tranquilize creatures, and with explosive gunpowder, they can become organic bombs. A variety of food can create different effects, just some experimentation to create a dangerous and explosive friend.

Platyhystrix is found within a variety of waterways and river systems, while inhabiting the swamp and rainforests of ragnarok. 
 

Taming
    Platyhystrix is a passive-tame, skittish however, so wearing ghillie is necessary to approach sometimes. It wants an assortment of foods, similar to moschops, but instead it wants gunpowder, oil, sap, narcotics, stimulants, biotoxin, ammonite bile, and sand.

 

Abilities & Functions Explained
    

Platyhystrix is a shoulder-pet, with the bog-standard shoulder-pet features. However, when given certain delicious ingredients, you can allow them to commit chemical warfare and break the geneva convention, since Geneva doesn’t exist in ark, don’t worry it’s a suggestion now. But at least the Platyhystrix is immune to the assorted debuffs, except you know exploding itself. 

Gunpowder - Causes a dangerous explosion, your platyhystrix can take damage from this localized detonation, however it can survive typically.

Oil - When it releases this cloud, a fire-arrow or attack causes the cloud to ignite into flame burning anything inside it. 

Sap - It causes anyone inside the cloud to become slowed or stuck with enough time, allowing you to release a few-shots until the debuff is gone.

Narcotics - As average, the narcotics create a sleep-mist, providing torpor to whatever that stands within it. It can cause a decent amount of armor-ignoring torpor, however, it’s small and squishy. 

Stimulants - Opposite of Narcotics, had a creature that was bitten from a rogue Dilophosaurus? You can awaken it instead, with a mist of anti-torpor, you want 100% correct on effectiveness yeah?

Biotoxin - It causes paralysis, stun-locking a target into paralysis, helpless to your attacks where sap allows a target to attack but slowly. 

Ammonite Bile - Pheromone Darts in gaseous form, want everything to hate a particular target? Choose Ammonite Bile, want to have basically the entire forest attempting to kill a singular raptor, this is for you.

Sand - Pocket Sand, a mysterious blinding cloud of sand, how? It’s somehow just able to expel sand-clouds outside itself after munching on sand.
