Dossier Transcript Common name: Giant Sloth Lemur Species: Archaeoindris kakopios
Time: Holocene Diet: Herbivore
Temperament: Territorial
Wild
You’d be forgiven for mistaking Archaeoindris kakopios for a species of bear or even a giant ground sloth, but fascinatingly, it is actually a giant lemur- unfortunately, their habit of pelting rocks at passersby has thus far kept me from studying them closer for long, though their “songs” are loud enough to be heard for quite aways, and may well keep you from walking into the faceful of rocks they throw at visitors.
Domesticated
Archaeoindris share close family bonds that cannot be broken in the traditional taming manner, nor are they such psychopaths that they’ll go along with the killers of their family group like a Dinopithecus- the only method that seems to have ground to stand on is kidnapping an infant while the Parents and sibling aren’t aware- this tends to require some significant stealth prowess. Once this kidnapped infant is raised, though, it will become a handy tool in many survivors' arsenals. Among Archaeoindris’ specialities are its superb hearing and “singing”- a tamed Archaeoindris can be coaxed to listen out for creatures and will attempt to communicate some of what it hears to the rider. The “song” however is more of a double edged sword- capable of warding off some creatures on the smaller side, but possibly drawing in larger predators should they hear it, so it’s always handy to check what might be listening before trying to scare away a pack of ravagers or the like. Additionally, the throwing skills of the Archaeoindris may come in handy should survivors want to bludgeon things into submission, and its climbing capabilities are not the worst i’ve seen.
Additional Info
Attacks/movement options
Primary: basic attack Secondary: Aim/throw rock Tertiary: Song Quaternary: Listen Climbs using the same system as a ferox
Taming
Enter the Archaeoindris territory with Ghillie on, and distract them with another tamed creature or some other source of noise while you go for the infant. Alternatively you can murder the whole family other than the desired infant but that seems less fun
