Deinotherium is undoubtably one of the strangest of all Mammals we can see in pre history but those downward hooked tusks aren't the only unnatural trick up their metaphorical sleeve. Much like Real life's version of Deinotherium I think Arks Version of this Anger Elephant should be noticeable larger than their hair covered counterpart. Deinotherium's anomalous tusks have confused paleontologists for years but are inferred to be used for digging up tree roots and forming channels to find water hidden under the surface as well as being an utterly terrifying weapon when provoked. Thankfully Ark Additions has made a fully flushed out version of what the DEINO might look like in game, While their version poises a very good foundation for the idea I think they missed out on the DEINO's capability for PVP scenarios. Wild: In the Wild you can find them in groups of 5-10 individuals with 1 alpha male and the rest females, Or you can find a lone male if you are lucky enough. When in groups of this size all of the ARK's inhabitants steer clear as to not provoke them. As they are extremely adept to survive in even the most harsh climate you will be able to find them just about everywhere. If they're heard is disturbed they will form a circle around the youngest and attack anything that approaches with no bias. If you target a Deino alone it will charge damaging everything in its wake. In defense against any creature with a minimum of 500 drag weight Deinotherium can gore their aggressor leaving a fatal bleed that lasts for 10 seconds. When an alpha Deinotherium is killed they will drop a alpha Deinotherium tusk which can be used for boss tributes. Taming: To tame one of these Beasts you must first coax them away from their group using their favorite food Honey. This is no easy task as when you are spotted by another member of their group they will all agro onto you. This taming process is passive but has everything to do with timing and patients. once you have a Deinotherium singled out you can start the taming process by dancing along with them using emotes untill you have enough trust to ride them starting the taming bar. If the Deino deems your dance lame it will kill you without hesitation(just like real life). You will then need to walk them 1000 meters per level giving them sweet veggie cakes along the way. This tame isn't inherently easy but can be done early on if prepared for. Tamed: For to long arks PVP scene has been controlled by the same 5 tames, While the addition of both the Desmodus and the Charcha helped there are few to no options for land based PVP tames other than Gigas and Shadowmanes. This will be a tame that can challenge both land and air with the help of a chain bola balista and spear bolt balista on the Deino's primitive saddle while its Tek Saddle can pack a heavy punch to tames at close and long range. When charged simular to a rhino they will gain a charge effect causing increasing damage to anything in its path including metal structures. Deinotherium can come with a selection of 3 different saddles to choose from. A standard platform saddle much like the one Paracer's have. The second of which hones into the possibilities that platform saddles have always had but has never been utilized to its full potential. Sporting 2 separate balista turrets and a overhand for the rider to seek shelter under from the elements and incoming fire. The last saddle is a tek variant with 2 morter cannons maned by the rider of the DEINO and 2 separate maned turrets accessed within a fully protected pilot bay. Controls: left click - trunk swing right click - Tusk Gore left control + left click - Grab anything under 300 drag weight or structures left control + right click - Throw anything you have picked up or place structure C key - budget fear roar Z key - Dig a channel to find seeds and water and make single use crop plot for farming Things to note: I have been working on this concept for a while now and hoped to post it for the relese of Extinction on ASA but have recently started other concepts that are now in the works so stay tuned if you want to see more Concepts like this one.

Image courtesy of AfricanAquaticConservation.org Background: The Pezosiren Portelli was an early ancestor of the Sirenia line of aquatic mammals (Ancestor of Manatees and Dugong before they became fully aquatic), that lived about 50 million years ago in the Eocene. The Pezosiren Portelli is a dog or pig sized herbivorous creature that lived in shallow waters and coastlines in tropical and warm climates. Many fossils of this creature have been found in Jamaica. Although having 4 legs equipped to walk on land they had many adaptations for aquatic life, like heavy rib bones to help with submerging and an opening on the top of their snouts to resurface and breath easier. Wikipedia for those interested: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pezosiren Hello Everyone! Thanks for taking the time to check this suggestion out! I play Ark as a very casual player and I thought this would be a funny idea for my first creature submission! I've spent a lot of time making this creature as unique as possible, so if you enjoy this guy and want to see his on your local Ragnarok beach sun tanning, consider upvoting! Now meet, The amazing, Pezosiren Portelli! <In-Game> Due to the abundance of Vegetation on Ragnarok, and places to sunbathe, The Pezosiren Portelli has grown to be the size of and adult Hippopotamus. These large lads can be found on, and in the waters around the beachy areas near jungles, relaxing and tanning. Oftentimes they are seen floating belly up in the water sleeping, or sunbathing in groups of 2-4 on the sand. With a lack of any significant predator, these guys simply lack the ability to be mean, making them one of, if not the most friendly creatures you'll ever meet! The Portelli is such an expert of relaxation, that it has mastered the ability to remain perfectly still while snoozing, becoming invisible to the naked eye. They are a good early game water and land support tame. With the Pezosiren Portelli by your side, you and your tames will be much safer when exploring the Ark! <TAMING> Taming this Giant couch potato is a very easy task for any new or experienced survivor. When a Portelli is sunbathing, or floating aimlessly in the water, sneak up to it, and give it belly rubs. This will prompt the Portelli to want a snack. It usually asks for berries, rare mushrooms, or rare flowers. Give them enough snacks, and they'll be your best friend forever! <ABILITIES> ● Conceals your Tames when snoozing When resting near your tames, the Pezosiren Portelli will "hide" your tames from pesky predators, making them significantly harder to be targeted by aggressive dinos. This only works when they are stationary and snoozing, but providing a good area of effect, easily encompassing an early game beach hut. No longer will you come back to your base to see all of your Dodos killed by a pesky Compy, or pack of Raptors. ● Makes Mud Balms to Cloak Tames on the go When the Portelli is given cementing paste and thatch in its inventory, it will begin to convert it into Mud Balms. When thrown at your tames, the smelly nature of the Balm will help hide the creature from wild dinos for a short period of time, making them harder to be detected by predators. This Mud Balm even makes it harder for the Parasaur to detect them, making sneak attacks on enemy tribes all the sneakier. ● Reduces the amount of food tames need to eat When sleeping at your base, it's laziness rubs off on your other tames, making them less hungry than normal. This passive ability reduces the amount of food that your dinos need to consume to be full, saving you all the time it takes for meat runs and berry farming! ● Too Slippery to be grappled underwater The large amount of blubber and fat on the Portelli and their smooth skin, make it very hard for creatures like the Tusoteuthis to latch onto it. ● Can't be Death rolled by Sarcosuchus The Pezosiren Portelli is too fat to be Death rolled. ● Can be ridden without a saddle Saddles ruin their Tan Lines. <Attacks> ● Belly Flop The Portelli can hop forward and smush it's foes with it's massive underside, crushing the dinos caught beneath it. This attack is simmilar to the Maewing's belly flop. ● Log Roll This pile of lard will lie down and log roll for a short distance, trampling anything that lies in its path. ● Flail The Portelli can flail it's stubby limbs around itself underwater and on land, damaging all the creatures around it. This looks similar to a toddler having a temper tantrum. ● Mud Bomb The Portelli can launch a ball of mud at dinos, slowing them for a short while. <Thanks For Reading!> It means a lot to me that you took the time to check out my suggestion, and if you enjoyed it as much as I did, consider giving it an upvote! If you have any feedback feel free to tell me, I would love to hear your thoughts!

The Dracorex is a new Creature to be introduced in Ark Survival Ascended. This Creature is roughly the size of a Utahraptor and has unique skills and abilities unlike anything you’ve seen before, I have decided on the Dracorex as my Creature submission to add some more variety among the Dinos. We have only the 1 Pachycepholosaurid in ark and it’s pretty.. lacklustre, This new Beast and its taming method and abilities are in my opinion some of the Strangest and coolest that there is! Additionally, The Dracorex’s name means “Dragon king” what better nickname for a creature introduced in a fantasy map? Habitat: The Dracorex Can be found Both in and outside The Dragon Trench on Ragnarok, Either inside the trench itself, or around the outer area of the Dragon trench often appearing in pairs or by themselves. Diet: These Beast are Herbivores munching on any berrys and seeds. Temperament: Docile, they’ll chill out with you and won’t attack, unless provoked by attacking them, their friends or by stealing their eggs. Taming method: this is where the fun begins, and where the name, “Dragon king” starts to shine, to tame a Dracorex first you must find and isolate one from any other nearby Dracorex. Then. You must drop a Wyvern egg of any of the 4 Core elements Fire, Lightning, Poison, ice, The Dracorex will then Smash open the egg by ramming into it, Destroying the egg and absorbing the element of the dragon egg through its many horns on its face. The higher level the Egg is your Dracorex smashes the Higher its Taming bar will rise. Taming effectiveness is determined by how much Damage Your Dracorex has sustained, so keep it safe! Depending on what type of eggs you let it smash. and how many of them for example 6 poison Eggs and 2 fire eggs then your Dracorex will gain the “Poison Element” and Become a “Poison Dracorex”. With the powers of a poison Wyvern, it can blast Poison clouds from its horns. With the powers of a fire Wyvern, it basically becomes a living Flamethrower, with the powers of an Ice Wyvern it can Freeze Oppenents with a steam of cold air from its nostrils. And With the powers of a lightning Wyvern can shoot a stream of lighting from its horns. the basic idea of the Dracorex (Dragon king) is that it can basically mimic the powers of the dragons, but in a smaller and more compact body, making this Dino Really useful for base defence and cave Exploration and once tamed, you can let it smash any more Wyvern eggs by enabling “Egg smashing” in the Behaviour section, where it will smash any Wyvern egg in a nearby radius. Upon smashing say, 3 eggs of any element of your choosing it will change the Dracorexs element to match the eggs it has smashed, so your not locked into any 1 element once tamed. in terms of speed, the Dracorex can run roughly as fast as a Smilodon or Raptor, building up speed as it sprints, stamina barely drains as it sprints too, so it can easily go long Distances. Once you’ve reached top speed, you can use the Primary attack button to instantly destroy all obstacles in your path, Trees boulders you name it. The Dracorex is also able to use this Headbutt to deal major damage to Structures, it Can Damage up to metal grade, through it admittedly won’t take too much health out of metal structures. But anything Stone grade or below and your in for a bad (or good) time due to the Dracorex’s status of “Dragon king” it takes Half the amount of damage from All Wyvern/dragon attacks. (Including the Dragon boss) additionaly, when riding the Dracorex all wild Wyverns will ignore you unless provoked. The Dracorex also does Double Damage to all Wyverns, Rex’’s, Gigas and Charcaradontosaurus to solidify its place as “King” And you can ride around on the Dracorex without the need for a saddle. But you can Craft “Dracorex armour” from Wyvern bones. Which can be Harvested from dead wyverns. This Armour is bone Like in Appearance and Reduces all Damage from all creatures and players. but like Player Armour it has Durabilty and will need to be fixed with more dragon bones once Damaged or broken.The Dracorex also comes with “Recoil” effect, Similar to Kentrosaurus, where attacking it from the front will cause the spikes on its face to damage all those who make contact. Baby Dracorex will have the same element as their parents. If you breed a lighting Dracorex and a fire Dracorex, you’ll get a Fire/Lighting Dracorex. Which has both the powers of a Fire and Lighting Dracorex. With you being able to choose which elements you want to use while in the Radial Wheel either while riding the Dracorex or when just opening the Radial wheel when standing next to the Dracorex and looking at it. Please Consider this Herbivorous Powehouse to be added to ARK! We need more strong Herbivores and I think the Dracorex is Perfect for the job

aquatic Rhizodus - Monstrous fish of the shores
Katanaa posted a suggestion in Creature submission archive
Rhizodus was a massive fish from the carboniferous period, the era of large arthropods, it has been proposed rhizodus lunged at land-bound prey much like a modern crocodile. My idea of Rhizodus is for it to be an aquatic creature that can traverse across lands in bursts, and for it to be anti-flier and anti-arthropod (Including stuff like tusoteuthis). Its land crawling ability allows it to reach land based creatures and players, though its not very fast at all, however you can do a lunge out of the water to quickly snatch anything on land or in the sky. When it lunges at a player or creature it will grab them, of which they can be brought back into the water, it can grab creatures that are below-rex sized in terms of land creatures, and fliers it can grab up to Rhyniognatha, but quetzels and wyverns are excluded from this. Other aquatic creatures it can grab as well, plesiosaur size is its max in terms of grabbing. Thrashing is its special attack when it has grabbed something, causing a bone break debuff that increases the amount of damage the creature takes per thrash. (Base thrash does 60, next thrash will do 70, and then 80, etc for example). ============================ Arthropod predator makes it do 2X damage against arthropods and mollusks (tusoteuthis), along with its ability to grab fliers out of the sky makes it pretty well suited to counter against Rhyniognatha. Arthropod predator also has the added bonus of making it immune to resin. Ammonites cannot make creatures aggro onto Rhizodus. ============================= Tanky & high base attack are Rhizodus's strongest points in terms of stats, will health and melee stats higher than a rex, it makes it a dangerous foe to encounter be it the ocean, land or skies even. However it has poor stamina and speed. ============================= Immune to eel and jellyfish stuns, along with tuso grabs. This makes it an effective counter to eels, jellyfish and tusoteuthis along with basiliosaurus, which does make it good for underwater cave exploration. ============================= In terms of abilites thats it, but its saddle comes in handy in one way: Its saddle has various storage containers on it that reduce basilo oil, bio-toxin and prime fish spoil times (on top of other perishable ocean items). This makes it useful when you go gathering resources in the ocean that spoil. ============================= And finally, it's taming method. Its taming requires you to sacrifice Arthropods (or something like tusoteuthis) to it, with either Rhyniognatha or Tuso being the best creatures for taming it.- 3 replies
