HE'S BIG, HE'S BAD, AND HE LIKES HIS FISH Hey! Back for another spin here!, came at a surprise seeing this vote but besides all that I decided to bring Arambourgiania back alot of people seemed to like it and I additionally thank you for the support during that round in particular it's such an honor being part of these subs Also sidenote:With the release of Rhyniognatha there might be some issues surrounding the idea of the creature but I'll change as much as possible during the vote, this creature is just here for those who wanted it as I know many did if you have any suggestions or ideas please leave them below While you're Checking this out make sure to check out these other cool subs out: Tylosaurus,Menonomenos,Majungasaurus, Falcarius, and Gigantoraptor Design/location Aram is slightly taller than a rex, it has an upright position unlike Quetz (wish Quetz would've maintained the dossier position tbh) They are mainly found in the Canyon biome of Rag specifically but you can also find them on the beaches in the desert regions Sexual dimorphism included- Males have a kingfisher inspired color palette with a extravagant display of picnofibers while the females have more brownish colors and have less picnofibers ECOLOGY/BEHAVIOR: Aram spawn in little clans of 3 usually one Alpha male and 2 females but it is possible that with enough in one area their might be a whole community of them including a Matriarch (Highest lvl Female Aram) Neutral They primary hunt fish but if the opportunity presents itself they'll eat smaller animals They actively fish in the wild similarly to a stork they'll jolt their necks and lunge after their prey TAMING METHOD: Gain trust from a mother Aram by dropping by and feeding it fish on occasion, then after you can help it build it's nest, the more materials the more it'll incubate, if any predators do make their visit if trust is built enough the female will defend you from said predators, but you need to make sure to make the nest picture perfect, the Mother will make subtle remarks to where the materials should be put,when finished the female will give you approval to be a parent, Be warned though the Alpha male does the occasional fly by to check on any intruders DOMESTICATION: Maneuverability: Galloping is needed in order to take flight, the longer the gallop the faster you'll be during liftoff A Slow gradual Dive bomb, strictly for mobility, catching up to other flyers, not for attacking but can be paired with the spear attack to hit smaller flyers the longer you dive the more damage output your spear move will have Using the dive you can also dive underwater Swimming is included too while they aren't the best at it is possible Can carry multiple smaller tames for transport (weight class troodon and below) in its mouth Can glide over bodies of water and slowly regain stam. Not as good as regaining stamina through normal means but it makes it good for those tough times where you have to stop for stam so often. Speed boosts from incoming waves and waterfalls (Could be handy in Asa when proper water mechanics are implemented) Turning like a dime, It can glide and dive sideways, albeit nowhere near as fast as Desmodus and Griffins but more or so used as a means of escaping and hitting targets Attacks Bite- Fairly weak but fast and easy to use Nab- can be used to grab smaller creatures aswell as chuck them at opponents the higher the weight class the higher the damage Spear bomb-Can Strike targets with an absolutely devastating dive spear attack on either land or in air takes a lot of time to build but it has a fairly good damage output and is effective against saddle armor and player armor for more pinpoint accuracy it has a marker to perfectly pinpoint targets and strike Hip Check- This is more of a passive ability and can be activated if you're flying parallel next to a flier, you can knock them off coarse using your massive wings (a nice addition for keeping your target at a steady pace and preventing them from being too fast to catch) Can Swallow Anything below Phiomia size with low health giving it a health boost! SADDLE: Their saddle is sort of steampunky with a few modern elements (Art coming soon) it includes a pair of goggles that greatly enhances their vision being able to see clearly underwater and being able to pinpoint from greater distances HISTORY: Arambourgiania while very hard to pronounce, is one of the biggest Pterosaurs only being outclassed by Hatzegopteryx and the Quetzal in weight, it was found in 1940 by Camille Arambourg by chance in Jordan (A middle Eastern Country), it's name means In honor of Arambourg, ofcourse referring to Camille, it probably would have had a wingspan of over 7 feet (23 feet) some estimates putting it around 12 feet. It lived in the Late Cretaceous and while it is an incomplete specimen based on other Pterosaurs we'd assume it would have a pretty close lifestyle to Marabou Storks or Shoebills. Sidenotes: I don't want this to be another Quetzal If anything I want it to encourage a Quetzal TLC Quetz will be the heftier sky base and Siege while Aram will be more in the Wyvern class if anything, I'd like it if we can have another big flying tame to It will not have a platform saddle, I want to keep this separate from Quetzal It's glide and dive mechanics are not that fast much slower than a Griffin and can't be used as an attack, they're just a meer boost in maneuverability, the dive will make it slightly faster than average and the glide will keep you from losing stam as fast Cosmetic thing Ig:They actively fish in the wild wait long enough and you'll see it hunting fish
