Concept by Tweee, JimmyYeet123 and friends, art by the amazing RiskyBiscuits!

I introduce the Nothosaurus lucidus! 

This marine reptile can be found in the oceans and beaches in the center in packs from 2 to 5 individual with their razor sharp teeth and high mobility paired in a pack is a dangerous sight. Nothosaurus can be found laying on the surface on their backs or hunting for any fish that swims near. 

The nothosaurus has a dull color and pattern but when the nothosaurus warms up in the sun this will change in a deep black with beautiful bioluminescent patterns! After a day the warmth will decrease and when not warmed up your nothosaurus won’t have as much stamina and strength but the only thing you have to do is place it in the hot sun of the arks to charge them up and not let them go in snowy biomes as the snow might be too much.

The nothosaurus has a sack on his throat that it uses to scoop up fish to save for later and when tamed can be used as a fishing basket! The nothosaurus does have another trick up it’s sleeve as when using the heat of its body it can make the water in his sack boiling hot! This makes your notho a mobile cooking pot and you can cook your food in here aswell as craft!

If your not feeling crafty the boiling water can also be used as a weapon. Choose between the settings and shoot a beam, rapid fire or when on land a mist cloud that will blind creatures.

SPECIAL ITEM: The nothosaurus also has a new item, a glow dye that can be applied to armor.

Notho

Buffs/effects and abilities 

Nothosaurus has a pack buff 

Speed of a sarco on land

breaching the surface of the water will briefly propel you forward with a fast pace and will give you a 5 second speed boost but this does drain lots of stamina

the boiling water can be used to penetrate armor

when Nothos are in packs (in groups of 4+) , they will have a pack roar that gives a fear debuff to sea creatures that confuses them and makes them easier to kill in a group, allowing them to handle the ocean caves of the arks! it when in packs, also doesnt dismount you when attacked by a jellyfish

Boiling mist: on land notho will spit out a piping hot mist that will blind foes.

Boiling beam: this beam will do a chain of damage and will give you the new status effect, SCALDED this will nullify armor of creatures and survivors by 50%

Boiling shots: these will work like rapid fire and can be used to stack up a lesser scalding nullifying armor by 5% every shot.

(I know the font is different)

[Possible other abilities] 


The nothosaurus has a strong tail with rather strong fibers on them. When brushes against solid rock static electricity will gather up with the tail puffing up to deal shocking blows to your enemies! This effect will rapidly give your opponents shocks in a span of 60 seconds. 

Shocksurge this effect lasts a minute and will deal a chain of shocks to a opponent slowing them down.


Nothosaurus will glow red when a alpha is near and yellow when a max level is near.

Increased pearl gathering

Taming: 

To tame a notho you need to kill it’s pack whereafter it will go passive drop a pearl this can either be a black pearl or silca pearl.
Nothosaurus will pick it up to do a pearl check if it doesn’t like it it will drop it and you wil have to wait. 
If it does like it it will start playing this is the time to go up to it to feed it tuso tentacles!
Rinse and repeat

In the inventory a exclusive item can be made this item is BIO DYE this will be made by mixing bio spit and your dye of choice 

This will give your creatures or armor  a nice glow that looks great and shines in the dark! 
Because of the spit mixed with water in its boiling sack you are perfectly able to shoot underwater as the substance is thicker than water itself 

I hope you like this creature! It will be both good on land and in water giving you great pve choices and making the oceans a bit more interesting with this creatures menacing deep sea appearance!
