This is def interesting

This is true but at the same time we have a lot of creatures that mirror each other, might as well have another transforming creature

Same!

remember tho it transforms into a fully fledged rideable creature.

Hello all! This is only my 2nd attempt to come up with a creature for this so take it easy on me I hope you enjoy! This is the Vulpikala, and was heavily inspired by the Vulpes Qiuzhudingi, which is an extinct Arctic Fox believed to be the ancestor of todays modern fox breeds. Of course my creation is not an arctic fox but after generations in the toxic areas of Aberration, It has adapted some extremely unique abilities and traits in order to survive and thrive. NOTE: This is a Hybrid shoulder pet and mountable tame! How? Well Continue and you will see Vulpes qiuzhudingi Paleozoic Period Omnivore Curious / Defensive WILD The Vulpikara spent a great deal of their existance in blistering cold conditions, but upon traveling to this toxic zone, their everyday lifestyles have changed. They spend most of their days as a cute and innocent "fennic" like creature, and love to sit in trees where they playfully observe others. They have been known to "fetch" goodies for those they admire and in some cases become attached to them. They are mainly herbivores eating the fruits of the trees, but when provoked will not pass up a kill. When the Vulpikala feels the need to protect itself, it draws forth the radiation it has stored in its body to undergo a massive transformation, Going from cute and cuddly to LARGE and Formidable! If you are among those that have provoked this creatures transformation, be ready for a true test of speed and power. The true rival of the Vulpikala has always been known to be the Rock Drake. When it senses one of these creatures nearby, it starts to release a trailing glow as it moves signifying that the Vulpikala is warning its master and preparing for battle. Little is known as to why they dislike the Drakes so much, but it is believed this is due to their young being hunted and slaughtered by the drakes for many years. The size of the Vulpikala in full form dominates that of the Thylacoleo. DOMESTICATED Those who have become imprinted on by a Vulpikara have told tales of both true companionship and mystical experiences. The Vulpikara have been changed by the radiation of this abberant zone in a way like no other creature. When they or their partner are in danger, they waste little time leaping into battle from their shoulder and transforming into their full size in a flash that leaves those that see it in awe. This transformation startles all attackers as if they have been paralyzed for a brief time, allowing the Vulpikala and rider enough time to escape or fight. The Vulpikala can be ridden in this stage without a saddle, and is said to have the speed of a lightning bolt when it leaps out of danger, bouncing between cliffs and trees. If the Vulpikala finds itself in a battle it cannot win, it lets out a screech that disorients its opponent, and it releases all of its radiation to the surrounding area causing the Vulpikala to revert to its original form, but giving its master the time to escape as the cloud slows all creatures briefly, and pacifies smaller creatures. Vulpikala have been known to be an explorers best companion in the deepest zones of Aberration. Not only does it give you a get out of jail free tactic when it leaps into battle to save its master, but its ability to leap from cliff to cliff in a flash scaling even the most vertical of cliffs makes it a must have to escape any situation in the deepest depths. It is also an Ideal companion for stealing dino eggs from nests in the blink of an eye. The Vulpikala may transform to protect its master without being told to do so, but it is also known that some masters have forced this transformation at their will using a gas like substance only found in this area. TAMING In order to make one of these adorable creatures your companion, one must first create a bond with the Vulpikala. Once you locate one, approach it with ease as you do not want to both provoke it or scare it away. The Vulpikala will then decide if you are interesting enough to approach as they are extremely curious but prideful creatures. If it approaches you without incident, you then give it a "Toxic Substance" to empower the Vulpikala, then you have started the "Battle Bond" taming method. Once transformed the creature will protect you at all costs but its transformation has 2 side effects. First off it will cause all visible creatures to go into a frenzy, making them attack you without reason. Second, the Vulpikala also starts to build a frenzy meter as you battle along side it. With every kill the Vulpikala gets closer and closer to bonding with you fully but it also gains frenzy. Once frenzied its eyes glow red and it lets out a screech like no other that stuns all creatures around including yourself and attacks without mercy. If you are not lucky enough to get away in time, you may be its next victim. After the frenzy it reverts back to its cute former self and the process continues. Once tamed, the Vulpikala's "Battle Bond" with you is much like an imprint from baby to parent, but forged by the battle itself. The quality of this buff is determined by your skill as a tamer. NOTE: You cannot approach a wild Vulpikala with a tamed creature to start the taming process, and you cannot use a tamed creature to help you battle bond to it. The Vulpikala, as stated previously, is a prideful creature and will only bond with those fearless enough to fight at its side as one. SHOULDER FORM ABILITIES When on the ground, you can whistle the Vulpikala to attack any creature of its size. It has even been know to leap into the air and pull Icthyornis and Dimorphodon strait out of the sky. It has also been known that if it is wandering around on its own it can dig up and find valuable resources for its master. When shouldered, the Vulpikala soothes the master's mind allowing for any buffs applied to itself and allied mounts to last longer. Also reduces stamina consumption. FULL FORM ATTACKS Left Click - Bite attack that hits twice. Once for the initial bite, and once for ripping away flesh. Right click - A claw based slashing attack that damages and bleeds everything in a cone in front of you. C - Used to consume any "Toxic Substance" it is holding and let out a screech that buffs its speed and stamina regen for itself and all allies in the area. (While under these affects, the Vulpikala emits a light in the area due to the radiation consumed. Works like a glow pet.) CTRL - Cosmetic Howl CONCLUSION In my opinion the Vulpikala would be a perfect addition to Aberration as they are swift, can scale cliffs and dangerous areas with ease but in a unique way, and can protect their master with their many defensive traits and offensive traits. Plus the ability to steal the eggs of its only rival is pretty cool in itself I would love to hear your opinions below that could help me shape this creature even more! But remember, all things about this creature are subject to be changed by Wild Card. All art credits go to Blue Willow AI art bot.

if you look at the submission i made that merged with the original bison it basically is what you stated and a bit more.

well I submitted my own version but wild card merged it with this post. it has way more of a Mythological feel to it. not that this origional one isnt good.

Hadhayosh - The "Flaming" Bison Hello Survivors! This is my first time ever submitting so take it easy on me. I know there are misspellings above Also I know there is another "Bison" Submission but mine is based on one during a diff era and has a twist with a mythological creature. Enjoy! Dossier: (Wild) The Hadhayosh (Ancient Bison) is a land creature primarily found in the hot deserts or open grasslands. Despite their massive size and incredible power, the Hadhayosh behave very much similarly like the modern mundane ox, spending most part of their lifetime wandering around grazing, and primarily sticking close to their pack. But a few of the more rare Hadhayosh have a secret trait that sets them apart from the herd. When Provoked, these "Alpha" pack leaders will enrage, growing in size, sprouting new horns and engulfing themselves and the surrounding area in an intense heat that few can withstand. Furthermore the female Hadhayosh produce a milk that will calm even the most "Hot Headed" of creatures. (Domesticated) (Male) Hadhayosh Make a fearsome companion on the battlefield, although their "hot headed" temperament make them hard to control when they are enraged. Once the rider has fully "Battle Bonded" with his new companion, the Hadhayosh undergo a transformation like no other. A fully bonded Hadhayosh grow in size, gain 4 additional horns and can be fully controlled during their intense rage as their mane catches FIRE! While enraged they have the bravery of a hundred Rock Elementals. This adrenaline rush increases their speed, defense and causes fire damage to those that dare attack them. They also secrete a substance that smells of death, but when used properly allows the drinker to live through death itself. For a short time that is. It is also said that these creatures have special metal armor allowing them to damage even the hardest of structures with their fearsome charged attack. (Males can be ridden with or without a saddle) (Female) The female Bison provide milk that can be used for many different things. To satiate hunger, calm the "Hot Headed" males, and even used in combination with something deathly to sustain life even in the most hopeless situations. (Females do not have a saddle but can be ridden) Taming: (Female) The female of the pack must be lured away from the rest using the males Pheromones which can be obtained from killing the Alpha Pack Leader. Simply apply the Pheromone to yourself and the female will part from the pack and follow you around as long as it lasts. During that time you are free to milk here or tame her passively with thatch. (Male) The male is a lot trickier. Only the Pack Leader male can be tamed. Even though the Hadhayosh are primarily aggressive creatures, and will attack anything that threatens their herd, they have rather bad eyesight. Stealth is the key to taming these creatures. Once within range the Hadhayosh will have cravings that only include stews, (Crafted foods). Once fed, they become over stimulated and burst into a short term rage, transforming their size, appearance and the temperature of the area becomes too hot to handle. This lasts until their next feeding, but only the females milk will calm them to allow for another feeding. Enjoy the creature and of remember that Wild Card can completely change everything about this

Can anyone tell me the font used in most of the creature submissions on the doss?
