Diet: The Rhaphorhynchus is a carnivorous creature
Intro:
In the skies above the diverse and Element-infested landscapes of ARK Extinction, the Rhaphorhynchus gracefully soars with unmatched speeds, a remarkable and nimble aerial glider that fills the role of a flying messenger and scout. With its distinctive appearance and unique gliding abilities, it stands out even among the exotic creatures that inhabit this post-apocalyptic world.
Appearance:
The Rhaphorhynchus is a moderately sized gliding reptile, typically reaching a wingspan of around 6 to 8 feet. Its body is compact, designed for aerial agility, with long wings and a slender tail. The wings are equipped with elongated fingers that support a membrane, enabling it to glide effortlessly. Its beak is lined with sharp teeth, indicating its carnivorous nature, and its agile legs are equipped with curved talons. The creature's size has been adjusted to allow survivors to ride it, making it an ideal companion in the challenging environments of ARK Extinction.
Habitat and Behavior:
This aerial glider is often found high above the diverse landscapes of ARK Extinction, utilizing the air currents to conserve energy during long flights. It is a solitary creature, usually encountered alone or in pairs. Rhaphorhynchus is known for its keen senses and remarkable agility in the air. Altough the ramphorhynchus has unmatched speed and agility its one of the weakest in combat it feasts on small creatures and likes to avoid confrontation but will fight if provoked.
Abilities:
1. **Aerial Glide:** Rhaphorhynchus is an exceptional glider, capable of riding air currents in the Element-infested wastelands of Extinction. This ability allows it to cover vast distances efficiently while conserving energy. Additionally, its improved wing design enables it to reach higher altitudes, giving it the advantage of acquiring an even better vantage point to navigate the challenging terrain.
2. **Dive Attack:** When threatened or hunting, Rhaphorhynchus can perform swift dive attacks. It uses its sharp beak and talons to strike at prey or deter potential threats. Survivors who encounter this creature should beware its aerial assault, adapted to the challenging environment.
3. **Sonic Scream:** Rhaphorhynchus has developed a unique defense mechanism to survive in the Element-infested wastelands. When threatened, it can emit a powerful sonic scream, disorienting and stunning nearby Element-infused creatures. This ability serves as a last resort to deter attackers in Extinction's harsh landscape.
4. **High-Altitude Observer:** Rhaphorhynchus can send out a unique "ping" or echo from its location, a form of aerial echolocation. This allows it to detect movement and pinpoint threats or valuable resources within its field of perception. The information is relayed to the rider or nearby tribe members, providing valuable insights for survival in the ever-changing, Element-infested world. This ability also allows it to stay aloft with ease.
5. **Versatile Climbing:** Rhaphorhynchus possesses the ability to climb and access high ground from virtually anywhere in ARK Extinction's diverse biomes, whether it's cliffs, trees, or even the ground itself. This exceptional climbing skill enhances its survival in the wild, where terrain is as unpredictable as the Element itself.
6. **Wind Current Manipulation:** Rhaphorhynchus has the unique ability to sense nearby air currents and manipulate them to its advantage. This sensory adaptation allows it to stay aloft for extended periods without expending much energy. Survivors who ride this creature can utilize this ability to identify and harness favorable wind currents for longer glides in Extinction's challenging conditions. Rhaphorhynchus can also use its wind current manipulation to maintain altitude and extend its glide duration, making it faster than any other flyer in Extinction.
7. Elemental Zephyr: Rhaphorhynchus taps into the Element-infused air currents unique to ARK Extinction. However, this ability comes with a trade-off. Initiating the Elemental Zephyr requires the creature to channel energy, which takes time to charge up. During this charging phase, the Rhaphorhynchus becomes more vulnerable to attacks and cannot perform other actions. Once activated, the Elemental Zephyr grants the Rhaphorhynchus an extraordinary burst of speed and agility, allowing it to maneuver through the most challenging aerial obstacles with grace and precision. This ability allows the creature to move in any direction, granting unparalleled control over its flight path.
Furthermore, while the Elemental Zephyr is active, all nearby Rhaphorhynchus companions can utilize the wind tunnel it generates. This tunnel remains open for approximately 30 seconds before the entrance closes, enabling other Rhaphorhynchus creatures to access it.
This wind tunnel can be used in any direction up down left right so you can use it to get up high or as a trap for other rhaps to either get far away from you or to lose its hight
However, it’s important to note that maintaining the Elemental Zephyr consumes a significant amount of stamina. Therefore, survivors should use it strategically. The duration of sustained flight with the Elemental Zephyr ability is limited, lasting approximately 2 minutes before the Rhaphorhynchus needs to rest and recharge.

Taming:
Taming the Rhaphorhynchus remains a challenging task due to its aerial prowess and solitary nature. Survivors interested in befriending this creature must utilize their own gliding equipment, such as a wingsuit or glider suit, to approach it in the skies within ARK Extinction's distinct biomes.
To gain its trust, survivors should offer it a selection of prime meat or fish, dropped from their aerial position. Patience is crucial, as it may take several offerings before the Rhaphorhynchus becomes accepting of the survivor's presence.
Once the creature decides to ally with a survivor, it can be ridden as an agile glider. Its ability to soar through the air currents, manipulate them to its advantage, and climb with ease to high ground provides survivors with a significant advantage in traversing the expansive and treacherous landscapes of ARK Extinction.
**Spawn Biome:** The Rhaphorhynchus can be found in all biomes of ARK Extinction except for the wasteland, where the harsh conditions make it an unsuitable habitat.
