I am not an artist at all and created the concept art on my phone so don't mind how crappy it looks. After the fall of humanity on earth leaving the planet in ruins, one creature stands above all as the everlasting specimen. The Megaloblatta Evolved over time and grew to fit its corrupted wasteland home, their large outer shell protects the weak body of this creature and hardens when it feels threatened. Due to the harsh environment, the weaker portion of the Megaloblatta have corrupted like its fellow surviving creatures to form an apex scavenger in the wasteland. Abilities: - Passively makes the food/water of nearby survivors decrease slower when inside the wasteland. - At 50% health hardens it's shell and gets a defence upgrade. - Acid Spit which slows enemies hit with it and deals minor overtime damage. - Can shed its shell to reveal wings which allow for the Megaloblatta to temporarily fly. - When it sheds its shell defence is decreased but movement speed / stamina is increased. - Bury itself underground to escape predators. - Does not need a saddle to ride but the saddle should be used. Saddle: The saddle of this creature allows for the shell to be shedded on command to allow the Megaloblatta to fly permanently, once flying the saddle can be activated to stretch and spread out the wings for a steady glide similar to a Rock Drake. Although once the creature lands its saddle automatically closes up and will not open back up for a limited amount of time. The saddle itself allows for the Megaloblatta to store up acid to unleash a larger scale spray attack. Taming: - Find the Megaloblatta within the wasteland. - Stand a tamed predator nearby the creature so it's wings will open up ready to flee. - Sneak up to the creature before it flees and passive feed it Corrupted Nodules. - Repeat process until it is tamed. Mating: The mating process of these creatures needs both parents to have saddles equipped. The shell restricts mating within the species so they need to shed the shell in order to mate, you need to use the saddle to open up the shell and allow for the creature to breed. Concept Art: The purple on the second image is the corrupted section, I know it's hard to understand hahaha.

Latzelia primordialis - The Triple Terror of the Deep
DadeadMan posted a suggestion in Creature submission archive
So we all know and love (hate) the acid spitting, armor destroying millipede Arthropleura, but now prepare for the new idea of a massive centipede, with two mounted turrets of your choice and the ability to lob exploding acid blobs as the rider, the Latzelia primordialis. So the basic idea for this creature submission would be a rather large, lets say around Basilisk sized centipede that resembles a house centipede, just way bigger. Bit like the Rhyniognatha this creature would be scaled up from its real life counter part, they would live in deeper in the red crystal biomes in Aberration around where you would face Reaper Queens. Now for the abilities i have thought for this creature: Maybe a torpor inducing bite ála Arthropleura Wall climbing (duh its Aberration) Spitting exploding acid globules, think Arthropleura but bigger in scale and with a bit of added AoE (maybe uses things like organic polymer or spoiled meat as ammunition? or maybe they could use the many different mushrooms as ammunition for different effects?) Triple seater saddle (sort of) so the saddle would have obviously the rider, which would be mounted towards the head of the creature, than you have a middle segment and the back segment or tail segment which every you prefer. The middle and tail segments would have slots for them in the creatures inventory when saddled, and would allow you to insert any of the Arks many different mountable turret types on them, making the creature a walking, climbing triple turret of terror. Maybe you have two catapults, maybe a minigun and a rocket turret? The choice is yours to make. As for the stats i would say its on the tankier side, with a good amount of weight for carrying all the ammunition needed for the added turrets, not too fast though. Taming could be something similar to the Rhyniognatha, where you´d have to find the males and harvest the pheromones, get the females to impregnate a dino and wait for it to go pop. Lastly i would like to say that i am by no means an artist and i am not asking anyone, but if you feel like it, feel free to post a prototype dossier here, along with any suggestions of your own.

Name: Calvapilosa kroegeri Common name: Calvapilosa Time: Ordovician Temperament: Neutral Diet: Carnivore Calvapilosa lives kn the radioactive rivers of Aberration, this has caused it body to become completely acidic. Neutral in character, it will not consciously attack anything unless threatened, but if an unwary person passes near it they will fall victim to its corrosive acids. When it is hungry, it wraps its prey in its body, dissolving them and absorbing its nutrients, it prefers irradiated meat and despises normal food, this information will serve for its subsequent domestication. Tame: Calvapilosa can only be tamed when it is hungry, this is easy to know since it will extend its four large antennae and begin to look for prey, at this moment you must grab a corpse and submerge it in a radioactive river, you must keep the body there until it turns a characteristic color red, (this process may take longer depending on the size of the corpse but this will also influence the effectiveness), then take it to the slug and it will begin to eat it slowly, its feeding process causes it to lose fluids and if it loses too many, calvapilosa will leave to eat to go to a radioactive river to hydrate, do not let this happen or you will lose taming effectiveness, at this moment you must go to the trail that the slug has left and collect that acid to sprinkle it on its body, you must do this as quickly as possible possible since you will be damaged by coming into direct contact with the acid and there is nothing you can do to avoid it (recommended to bring many medicinal drinks). At 80% taming, calvapilosa will inevitably head to a river, don't worry, this is normal, once in the river, baldhead will release acid which will make the water completely corrosive and there is nothing you can do to avoid this damage, you must stay in the water all the time so that calvapilosa associates you with food and wants to stay with you, at this point I can only recommend a huge amount of potions, a daeodon, tek gun or chitin armor that will better protect you against acid but not for much longer. Tamed: Once calvapilosa has been tamed you will not need any mount, this slug can control its acid at will and you can enter its body if it affects you which in turn produces a corrosive natural armor for you. Skills: - Obviously his slug body allows him to climb any surface. - His acidic body gives him great resistance to bullets. - In addition to the above, it is completely immune to the net projectile which is capable of easily melting. - Any creature that attacks it will take corrosive damage. - Great swimmer, the survivor inside it will not need to come to the surface to breathe, calvapilosa provides it with the necessary oxygen. - The survivor inside is completely immune to radiation regardless of what armor they are wearing. - Calvapilosa hydration bar increases when you enter the water. - Calvapilosa radiation bar increases when you are in a radioactive zone. - If it is irradiated, it will produce acid slime over time, this slime can be used to charge the tek suit or as ammunition in some tek weapons. Attacks: - Frontal bite which releases acid, quickly corrodes any type of armor and does damage to metal structures. - When it is hydrated, it can give off a trail of slime that will slow down any creature or survivor that passes over it, in addition, it is irradiated, this trail of slime will deal damage to any creature. -If it is hydrated and irradiated, it will be able to shoot a powerful jet of acid that will deal damage, slow down and leave a radioactive effect on the target. - Ocular antennae, you can see at great distances as if it were a spyglass. - If you are fully hydrated and irradiated, you can explode your entire body by throwing acid bombs in all directions. - If it is hydrated, it will be able to launch a cord of slime that can drag small creatures or survivors, the most effective way to get rid of this cord is with fire, a torch is recommended.
