APPEARANCE: They were small birds, considered the first birds in history, and they lived at the same time as dinosaurs! The males had a small forelock that they moved to attract the attention of the females. WILD: Mirarces are usually found sitting on the horns of the aberration's trikes. The two species get along very well, to the point of trikes defending the Mirarces in case of attack. The coexistence between the species is such that the mirarces only make their nests in the heads of the trikes! Its favorite food is the fish found in the long rivers in the aberration, but the recipes made by players cannot resist either. They are songbirds, and their song has different effects on creatures and players around them. One of the customs of this animal is to vomit up the remains of its prey, much like what owls do today. But your vomit has several different functions. DOMESTICATED: Mirarces are beautiful birds, used as decorations for bases. In addition to their beauty, they can sing all day if the players so choose, and their singing has many positive effects for everyone. Furthermore, their vomit has unique properties, and the main ability is linked to one of the biggest shortcomings of the aberration map: they vomit element dust. SKILLS: Mirarces are not combat birds, nor birds that are useful if they are positioned on the player's shoulder. The great differential of this bird is when it is perched on the base. In addition to the bird, I would like to add a perch to the game, which could serve not only for her, but for the other birds in the ark as well. It could be something very simple, just for the bird to be positioned where the players think it is best, so that its song has a greater effect, in addition to facilitating the collection of its vomit. The mirarce has 4 types of songs, which can be selected by the player in the creature skills menu. The songs consume a large amount of food, and have a range determined by the bird's perch. I thought that the perch could have a marking like the electronic collars, to define the area in which the bird can act, or else, the bird could have a delimitation similar to that of the maewing. The effects of the songs last an average of 15 minutes, unless the bird is perched and singing frequently. The bird's food consumption is higher if it is in this mode. Below is the list of songs: PRODUCTION SONG: This song allows creatures that are producing something (eg achatinas and gachas) and players that want to craft something to have a 100% boost in production skill, such as the focal Chili. In case you play, this effect only lasts as long as he is within the bird's range. GROWTH SONG: This song gives a boost to babies that are in the growth phase. It decreases each cub's food consumption by 33%, in addition to reducing the amount of hp lost in case it is hungry. SONG OF HEALING: Has the same healing effect as an owl or the aberration's healing plant. Creatures and players within range can be passively healed. SONG OF LIGHT: When using this song, the area where the bird is perched will be illuminated, thus removing creatures from the darkness of the aberration. NOTES: Mirarces only sing when perched. Although they can be carried on the shoulder, they do not serve as light protection for exploration in aberration, they only manage to leave the base illuminated, away from the risks of darkness. If the mirarce is set to sing only once, the effects last for 15 minutes. If set to constantly sing, the effects are permanent, but food consumption increases. It consumes 1 unit of meat per second, 1440 units of meat per day (real time). Mirarces are affected by songing each other, i.e. if there are 2 mirarces with song production active next to each other, they will spew more blue pellets with this boost. In addition to its singing, the mirarce has a special vomit. If he is in continuous singing mode, every 5 minutes he spits out a blue owl pellet. It can be used to power gachas, or it can be refined into an element. I believe that here would need a Wild Card calculation of how much dust it spits in this interval, but it would be the same fabrication that a dust gacha has. Also, if a dust gacha consumes this blue pellet, your dust crystal production increases by 125% (this would be the same as the mirarce pellet, gacha crystal plus 25%). This boost only applies to dust production. The other gacha productions gain the same boost if they eat the owl pellet. It is important to note that the Mirarces produce the blue pellet only within the aberration map. Outside of it, they only produce common owl pellets. We are trying to alleviate the lack of elements on the map, since even the boss does not drop elements. DOMESTICATION: Taming a mirarce is impossible. They don't take orders, and are very happy in nature. Just by stealing their eggs, the player will be able to add a mirarce to their collection. The problem is that mirarces make their nests between the horns of aberration trikes, and they will defend the nests with their lives. Another important detail, the trikes when attack a player, they end up breaking the eggs and the nest, and all will be lost. Likewise, if the player kills or tranqs the trike, the nest will be destroyed. Also, if the mirarces see that the player has approached, they will scream, and all the surrounding trikes will attack the player. The only way to get a mirarce egg is to trick the mirarce into believing you are a trike too. To do this, the player will need a Trike Bone Helmet Skin equipped on the head, having consumed a repellent, in addition to the mirarce's favorite food placed in its last hotbar. Wild mirarce have the same feeding system as a moschops. When approaching, the player will see the food requested by the bird. Once the bird has ingested the requested food, a “confidence” bar will appear over it. This bar needs to be filled completely for the mirarce to trust the player. Each time the mirarce is fed, it will place some straw in the player's helmet, as if producing a nest. When the confidence bar is full, the nest will be ready on the player's head, and the mirarce will take the egg from the nest on the trike's head and place it on the player's head. At that moment, the player will be able to access the nest inside his inventory, and collect the egg. The problem is that when you do this, the mirarces will realize that they have been tricked, they will attack the player and summon all the trikes around them to do the same. NOTE: This behavior is only used by females, if the player feeds a male mirarce, he will immediately realize that you are not a trike, and will warn the trikes around him to start an attack.
