I also like this creature and it was one of the options

Authors Amanit and MUSH1 Hello survivors, I present to you Helicoprion. Jellyfish and eels have always irritated me when traveling underwater. Their electric shocks are just terrible. That is why I want to offer you a helicoprion, which will become a nightmare for electric creatures and, in combination, their king. I also want to offer a new craft, but first things first. Basic information: Common Name: Helicoprion Species: Helicoprion bessonowi Time: Permian Diet: Carnivore Temperament: Aggressive Wild Helicoprion from afar can be confused with megalodon. However, if you swim closer, which you should not do, you will inapplicably notice a huge disk of teeth on the lower jaw. In this case, you need to quickly carry your legs! These terrible predators are able to open any armor like tin cans. Especially dangerous are males who care for females. It is also important to remember about the ability of males to accumulate electricity in spikes, which begin to glow with the accumulation of charge. With this ability, they can perform electric shocks that incapacitate opponents. Domesticated To subdue this sea thunderer, the survivors will have to work hard and risk their lives more than once. First you need to charm the female by defeating several angry males in her presence. Females are weaker and do not have the power of electricity, therefore they are tamed in order to subsequently subdue the male. However, if you overcome all difficulties, you will have an incredible fighting companion. With his power of electricity and a disk of teeth, you can crush any opponents! Saddle: The saddle does not have special properties (except for the new craft, but more on that later), but it will cost quite a lot and be unlocked at high levels. Drops: Raw Fish Raw Prime Fish Fragment of a Dental Spiral A fragment of a dental spiral will be a guaranteed trophy from a helicoprion carcass. It will be used in the crafting of acne and jellyfish repellant. After drinking this decoction, you begin to exude helicoprion pheromones, so jellyfish and eels become shy and run away from you. The effect lasts 15 minutes. Passive Abilities: • Thanks to the dental spiral, the helicoprion is able to break the armor of survivors at twice the speed. This ability also allows him to ignore 50% of the saddle armor of tamed creatures, so be careful with him! • Helicoprions prey on other electrical creatures, so electrophoruses and cnidarians are terrified of them (if jellyfish and fish can be afraid at all), since their electric shocks do not cause any harm to helicoprions. Active abilities: • - a bite blow that quickly breaks through the armor of survivors and ignores 50% of the armor of the saddles of tamed creatures. The base damage from the bite of a male is 70 HP. The base damage from the bite of a female is 45 HP. With a bite, the helicoprion dismantles corpses, receiving such resources as: Hide Raw meat Raw prime meat Keratin Chitin Raw fish Raw Prime Fish Organic polymer Pelt - electric shock. Only males have them. The strength and range of the strike depend on how charged the spikes of the helicoprion are. From 0% to 100%, the energy scale fills in 50 seconds, that is, 2% per second. The higher the charge level, the greater the damage, range and stun time of the enemy. The maximum stun time is 10 seconds. Shock Damage - X3 bite damage at max charge, so base damage will be 210 HP. If the Helicoprion sticks its nose out of the water, the impact will be weaker (2X damage) and the electric wave will be shorter, but it will spread through the targets like a chain, creating an electrical circuit. If a Helicoprion with a fully charged energy bar strikes electricity vertically upwards, there is a small chance that a thunderstorm will start. There are ways to speed up the filling of the energy scale: • One bio toxin fed to Helicoprion gives it 4% energy bar filling. • The energy bar fills up when the Helicoprion is shocked by Electrophoruses and Cnidarians, however, since they run away when the Helicoprion approaches, they must first be chased and “rubbed” against them, causing a discharge. • If a saddle is put on a helicoprion, then out of 200 bio toxins in its inventory it will be possible to make a special elixir, which speeds up the recharge of the energy scale by half for 5 minutes. That is, from 0% to 100% the scale will fill in 25 seconds. Does not affect other energy sources. •[C] - release pheramones. This ability works only for the female and is needed to tame the male. When the pheramones are released, all nearby males begin to follow your female and are neutral towards you. Taming: Helicoprion females are weaker than males and do not have electrical abilities. Their dental spirals are smaller, and therefore bites are weaker. However, they are also afraid of electrophoruses and cnidarians. They have a neutral behavior. Short version of taming: You can tame a female by defeating a male in a duel and taking fragments of his spiral disk. After that, with the help of the female, you arrange a "tournament among males" in which the strongest will win and you can brand the winner. Full version of taming: If you want to get a male, you first have to tame a female. To do this, you need to prepare iron armor and a shield (several sets are better!). Also, items that restore HP will not be superfluous. Then you find a female who is courted by a male (females always spawn with males, only males can spawn separately). In order for the male to perceive you as a rival, you need to take a decoction of a fragment of a dental coil to exude pheromones. In this case, the male will start a duel with you, which will be watched by his female. A male that enters duel mode will deal half damage as usual and will not use electric shock. You need to block his attacks with shield and armor, the higher the level of the male (the level of the male corresponds to the level of the female), the more hits he can make before his spiral disk completely becomes unusable. During the duel, the male will break off his teeth, three of which will fall out in the process, and when he is left without teeth (10-25 blows), he will lose the battle and swim away. If you survive the battle, then you will need to pick up the fallen teeth and make a "necklace of helicoprion teeth", the crafting of which will open in the early levels of the game. After you give this necklace to the female, and she becomes yours. It is important to remember that the female will accept the necklace only if you defeat the male. Once you have tamed a female, you have the option to tame a male. When you find a suitable candidate, you release pheromones and he begins to follow your female. Together you find another male helicoprion and release pheromones again. The males start a duel and the one who first lowers the opponent's HP below 30% wins. The loser swims away and the winner returns to the female. Taming progress is filled at the winner after the end of the battle. The higher the level of the male, the more battles he needs to tame, the level of his rivals also plays a role. The difficulty is to find enough helicoprions, and they will not be very common. I hope you are not confused. Breeding: There is nothing unusual in breeding helicoprions. Approximate base specs: Health: 2200 Stamina: 750 Food: 3000 Weight: 800 Additional Information: Helicoprion can carry: Tusoteuthis Can damage: Thatch Wooden Stone Possible uses of helicoprion: • Excellent vehicle. Helicoprions are fast and strong, they are also not touched by cnidarians and electrophoruses, so you can comfortably travel on them across the ocean expanses. • Battle comrade. Thanks to the ability of helicoprions to bite through armor and electric shock over the area, they are able to compete with even the largest inhabitants of the depths of the island. • Resource collector. It will be convenient to get fish and other seafood on the Helicoprion. • Anti-aircraft gun against flyers. The electric wave of the Helicoprion does not work as well on land as in water, but it is still capable of shooting down unwary fliers flying close to the water. It seems to me that the use of most creatures in the Ark is limited only by the imagination of the survivors, so you can always experiment). Thank you all for your attention!

Interesting idea

I'm rooting for you dude!

Thank you, it's unlikely to win this time, but we will push this creature in the future.
