Panagrolaimus kolymaenis is based off of a real life worm that was revived from permafrost recently. The idea is for it to do a similar thing and survive to present day earth.
Kolymaenis is the most useless creature on the entirety of the ark. The whole purpose is for it to be this stupid creature that requires a lot of care and attention, but doesn't provide anything useful in return.
Kolymaenis would require a very specific taming method. You would need to feed it an exquisitely cooked multi-course meal in order to advance taming to the next step. This would require specific recipes in order to tame, as kolymaenis is a picky eater. It cannot eat any raw foods, as it will kill it due to food poisoning (this also includes berries and veggies, as it can hurt its tummy). It also cannot eat spoiled food, nameless venom, or any other specific drop from creatures. It will, however eat every cooking recipe except battle tartare (yes, that includes shadow steak) and random rare resources such as black pearls, element, raw element ore, rocks, giant bee honey, wyvern talons, rock drake feathers, and corruption nodes (which are all exempt from the previous creature drop rule). It will also sometimes ask for artifacts and boss heads. It will eat multiple of these at a time (except artifacts). This process can sometimes result in a stomach ache, which will reduce taming effectiveness and drop the taming bar to zero. Taming can only be completed in a gillie suit. If the worm sees you, then you will lose taming effectiveness, and and the taming bar will reset.
If you or any other creature moves over top of the kolymaenis, it will immediately die and you will not be able to gather any resources. The game will start playing sad music, and you will not be able to stop the music unless you stop the game. It has one of the lowest spawn rates in the game, and is very difficult to find. It will only spawn at the very edge of extinction.
Kolymaenis will always have one health, one weight, one stamina, and 1% melee, no matter how many times you level it up. Kolymaenis is the only creature in the game that allows for movement mutations, and leveling up movement does apply speed to it. There is no purpose to this though, as it will only increase its likelihood of being stepped on. Once tamed, it will require constant maintenance, and if you do not feed it and take it out on walks every time it asks, it will die either of starvation or boredom. If you do not feed it what it wants, you will instantly die with no explanation, and when you respawn all your stuff will be missing and the worm will be gone.
It also adds the worm-shrine, which is only unlocked as an engram after having tamed a kolymaenis. You may worship there to level up the shrine. The more you worship, the more levels it gains. After a certain number of levels, you reach milestones, which effect your stats negatively until you reach the max level, which will revert you to worm form.
Thank you and please vote team worm for nothing to be added to the game!
