Suggestion

Common name: Tokummia
Species: Tokummia katalepsis
Time: Cambrian
Diet: Omnivore
Temperament: Passive

Wild: Tokkumia katalepsis is a fascinating creature that can be found within most bodies of water within the ARK. A small scavenger, it devours anything that falls to the floor of the body of water its in. Occasionally, it may attack and eat smaller prey, but it ignores other animals for the most part. With its shell, it doesn't have to worry about predators, though they don't seem to pay much attention to them anyway. Despite their seeming insignificance, Tokummia are an important part of the ecosystems they inhabit, as they clean up any dead creatures that may find their way to the little critter.

Domesticated: At first, I thought Tokkumia wouldn't be more than a mere pet, but I was completely wrong. Tokkumia is surprisingly intelligent, capable of being taught to collect certain items. It can also unlock doors and containers, useful for any would-be thief inhabiting the ARKs. I've even seen a few survivors teach it to refill troughs!

Taming: Tokkumia would be tamed by dropping honey in front of it, and allowing it to consume it. Not very complicated, making them pretty easy to get.

Uses:

-Tokkumia would be capable of picking up items on the floor, including eggs, fertilized eggs, feces, achatina paste, etc. It can be selected in a menu, and the Tokkumia would wander a set area, going to and picking up any of the specific item that is in its range. It can be linked to a storage container, such as a vault, fridge, or storage box and the Tokkumia will bring the item to said storage container. In case the container fills up, it could possibly be linked to multiple containers.

-Tokkumia can lock pick doors and structures only in PVP. This includes containers and other structures, of course.

-Tokkumia can be linked to a container of food to refill troughs when it runs out.

-Tokkumia is a shoulder pet, will give a weight reduction to all items in player's inventory

-Tokkumia is ignored by wild creatures, so if any manage to get into your base, they won't be a threat to it. 

-Tokkumia doesn't have an oxygen stat, so it functions on land and in water. Obviously, it would be able to swim in water, allowing you to farm aquatic eggs.

 

Ark has gone long enough without a creature that can automatically pick up egg, fertilized, eggs, achatina paste, feces, etc so that you can save time farming things. Please consider voting Tokummia if you want Ark to finally have an automatic pick up creature, something that the game definitely needs.
