*tumbles and crashes through the ceiling* Hello yet again ARK community, this time I have a frog. after a funny bit of zci shenanigans, i present Metoposaurus glomerofaucium, the spore shooting salamander! Dossier: Notes Metopo can be found having any of the 3 possible spore types, identified by what colour it glows. Metopo has a 1 person saddle which shields the rider from all spore effects Metopo has a turret mode in which it buries itself into the ground and periodically shoots out spores of the last type that it had Taming To tame a wild Metopo, it is recommended that you eat the mushroom type that negates whatever shroom type the wild one has. This is because to tame it you will have to walk up to it and feed it while it is charging up a spore shot, so that in case of a blunder you dont get hit with the full force of a spore cloud. Once you feed it enough, the metoposaurus will be tamed. Its preferred foods are, in order: Superior Kibble Raw Mutton Raw Prime Meat Raw Prime FIsh Meat Raw Meat Raw Fish Meat Abilities Land: Lclick: Standard bite Rclick: Aoe spore cloud R click Hold: Brings up crosshairs, targetted spore cannon. 5 second cooldown between shots. Spacebar: Bury/Stop burying. Ctrl: Toggle spore type Water Lclick: Standard bite Rclick: Tail slap X: Toggle swim/walk Ctrl: Toggle spore type Spore Types: Hallucinogenic: Wild: Drains oxygen and stamina, messes with vision Allied: Acts as short range cloak for duration of effect Freezing: Wild: Slows creatures, eventually freezes for 5 seconds/causes severe hypothermia in players Allied: Acts as a mini heal, boosts health regen for 15 seconds Radioactive: Wild: Afflicts non-rad immune creatures with severe radiation Allied: Acts as a short term mushroom brew that lasts for 30 seconds Other art: metopos are naturally lazy and will not go after anything unless they are attacked or touched dont be fooled by their normally carefree attitude though, an agitated metopo can and will do eveerything in its power to end you (also pro tip: the colours that flash on the back patterns of a metopo are a good indicator of what spore types they have charged up, so be prepared with mushrooms when approaching one) apparently rock drakes can get high too? Supplementary links: the real creature: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metoposaurus Aaaaand that's all folks! Good luck with the competition!

Introducing the Caldwellia philyrina, a giant snail of epic proportions that will revolutionize the way you play Ark Survival Evolved. This colossal creature boasts an enormous shell that serves as both a mobile home and armored transport for players, offering unparalleled protection and mobility. Imagine having a nearly unstoppable fortress, with the ability to move around the map with ease! Once tamed, players can craft a mount that offers a trapdoor access into the shell, creating a fully enclosed and impenetrable armoured transport. The shell is made of a super-hardened material that is 10 times stronger than metal, making it an excellent defence against even the mightiest of Giga attacks and bleeding damage. But outside of the shell she is very vulnerable, so she can cover inside the shell. Sche is very heavy and this does not cause recoil. The large size of the Caldwellia philyrina also allows for players to craft a 2x2 foundation set inside, turning it into a veritable fortress. Imagine having a fully equipped base with crafting tables, storage chests, and even a bed for respawning, all inside the safety and comfort of the Bourou's shell (if game engine permits). Otherwise, its inventory system acts as a crafting platform and bed, allowing players to respawn back into it. It's the ultimate survival tool, with all the amenities of home at your fingertips. But the Caldwellia philyrina isn't just a "fortress on wheels", it's also a foraging powerhouse. It can forage berries ,hatch, fiber, wood, seeds, black and white perls efficiently, and over time its inventory also increases with polymer, fertelizer, cement and random types of mushrooms. With the Helix Pomatia by your side, you'll never have to worry about running low on resources again. It's like having a portable loot room, and you'll be able to gather resources more efficiently greater safety than ever before. One of the Caldwellia philyrina special traits is its ability to climb nearly any surface, including vertically scaling mountains or cliffs. Its large shell also allows it to trap lots of air, providing the player with a week-long duration of underwater seabed crawling, adding a new style of exploration for players. Imagine being able to explore the depths of the sea without the need for a diving suit, or traversing treacherous mountain ranges with ease. The Helix Pomatia opens up a whole new world of possibilities, and you'll be able to discover hidden locations and secrets that were previously unreachable for many players. But she is very slow!!!! However, her attacks are very weak, so she is not a fighting creature in that sens. But she has a big cannon on her saddle, that's her main weapon for the damage deal. However, they need ammunation that they have to carry with them.The slime she drags behinde her slows down every enemies and after a long time where they walk on there they become stuck. But the most important thing about Aberrations is of course the glow, her feelerscan glow in different beautyfull colors.This makes it perfect to tame a Reaper, as it emits light throgh the feelers and with the cannon on the shell, it does enough damage on the Reaper. You tame them by feeding them mushroom soup!

ESSEXELLA ASHERAE THE RADIOACTIVE TERROR APPEARANCE: Very similar to the Vampire Squids known in our world, the great differential of the squids that inhabit the aberration is in the fact that they float, and do not live in the water, besides of course, like the Gremlins, they have a rule: No Feed an Essexella Asherae radiation! WILD: Wild Essexella Asherae are normally peaceful, and live floating in the higher parts of the aberration. They feed on small insects they find, such as light beetles, but they have a problem: they are addicted to Reaper pheromones. They are unable to resist when a player uses a pheromone or when they encounter Reapers. The problem is: Reapers are in the radioactive part of the aberration, and the radiation has a powerful effect on the Ark's Essexella Asherae: It causes them to mutate, and transform into a giant creature, which is part of humanity's greatest nightmares : Cthulhu. In their Cthulhu form, the Essexella Asherae are slightly larger than the Reapers, and with overwhelming power, they are able to kill everything in their path, until they manage to satiate their uncontrollable appetite for pheromones. The entire body would look something like this: DOMESTICATED: Essexella Asherae have the same ability as other aberration animals: they can produce their own light, and, because they are small, they can cling to the players' shoulder, to protect them from threats that use darkness as a form of attack. Its charge meter is also used in its Cthulhu form, being the meter of the amount of blows that Essexella Asherae is able to deliver before returning to its normal form. DOMESTICATION: The taming of an Essexella Asherae is divided into 3 parts: attraction, combat and control. To tame an Essexella Asherae, the player needs to attract it to radiation, and have at least one powerful radiation-resistant creature. To do this, the player must consume pheromones from Reapers to attract their attention. Once it has their attention, the player must move to the radioactive part of the map, where a bar will then appear over Essexella Asherae's head. This bar counts the amount of radiation Essexella Asherae has accumulated, and when full, Essexella Asherae assumes its Cthulhu form, transforming into the most ferocious and devastating beast of all aberration. In Cthulhu form, Essexella Asherae completely loses control, and starts attacking everything around it, including the player. A full bar appears above her head, and it shrinks over time, indicating the amount of time left for her to return to her normal form. Another extremely important detail: in this form, the Essexella Asherae are only affected by creatures resistant to radiation. Otherwise, the creature doesn't deal damage to Essexella Asherae, and still takes passive radiation damage. At that moment, the player must mount the creature resistant to radiation (we indicate a Reaper), and start a fight with Essexella Asherae to enter the second part of the dome. Essexella Asherae will focus on the player while the pheromone effect is active, otherwise it will attack everything around it. Wild Reapers will spawn and engage in combat. The player needs to be very careful, because if Essexella Asherae kills a Reaper, the bar over its head fills up again, and its hp regenerates, which makes taming it very difficult. When Essexella Asherae's hp drops, she will grab the creature the player is mounted on, and will be immobile for some time. At this time, the player must dismount the creature and approach the Essexella Asherae's face, and feed it Reaper pheromone. When you do so, Essexella Asherae's hp will restore itself, as well as its time bar, and it will allow the player to ride it, and thus start the third part of taming. Once the player mounts the Essexella Asherae, it lets out a scream that attracts all Reapers around it, and the player must kill all those around it. The player must pay attention to the meter above Essexella Asherae's head, because if it goes to zero, it returns to its original form, and the tame is lost. This meter drops faster if the player uses a special move from Essexella Asherae, otherwise, it drops at the same speed as the battery charge of a normal aberration light animal. Thus, the player must kill all the Reapers around him until the taming meter fills up completely, and Essexella Asherae finally returns to its original, tamed form. It is important to emphasize that taming occurs in the radioactive part of the map, that is, it is important to be equipped to resist radiation. Another important detail: even after being tamed, in Cthulhu form, Essexella Asherae continues to emit radiation. Creatures that are not resistant to radiation and players that are not equipped with resistant armor take passive damage. SKILLS: In normal mode, Essexella Asherae, when in radiation, will passively generate radioactive element in your inventory. This element can be used to transform Essexella Asherae into Cthulhu on any map. 100 radioactive elements are required per transformation. Note: In radioactive areas, a tamed Essexella Asherae has no time limit to maintain its transformation. She can stay in this form for as long as the player wants. Only outside of the radiation will the radioactive element be needed and the transformation time is equivalent to the light charge it has. In Cthulhu mode, Essexella Asherae has 3 abilities: NORMAL ATTACK, which consists of a sequence of punches; LIGHT PUNCH, a punch that deals 4x more damage to creatures that take light damage (Reapers and unknowns etc.), and 2x more damage than a normal attack. A light punch consumes 10% of Essexella Asherae's total light charge. RADIOACTIVE LIGHT CANNON, a blow that combines radiation and light in a powerful shot that comes out of its mouth, causing enormous damage to everything in front of it, with a great range. This blow passes through targets, that is, if it hits a creature, it will pass through it and hit targets behind it up to the limit of its range. This move expends around 50% of Essexella Asherae's total light charge. Note: An Essexella Asherae, when its charge of light is depleted, will only be able to transform back into Cthulhu mode when its charge of energy reaches 100%. An Essexella Asherae has the ability to grab and hold any creature smaller than or equal to a giganotosaurus. The creature is immobile, unable to attack, while Essexella Asherae's energy charge drops 3x faster during this process. In this way, Essexella Asherae becomes the ideal companion for taming other animals, as it gives the player enough time to set a trap around the creature instead of luring it into one, as well as making it an excellent creature. for pvp, as it can make it impossible for an opponent to move.

Original Species (Indosuchus Raptorius) not my drawing Dossier Species: Indosuchus Diablovenator Time: Late Cretaceous Diet: Carnivore Temperament: Aggressive (especially to Nameless) Wild: I have noticed that much of the prehistoric wildlife in these caverns are pretty aberrant compared to the prehistoric wildlife I encountered on the island and desert with them most notably glowing in the dark but one dino stands out from the rest, Indosuchus Diablovenator, for one I did not encounter it on the previous space stations and secondly it seems more derived than the other prehistoric creatures with numerous adaptations for dwelling in these caverns. Firstly Indosuchus is capable of swimming on the surface of molten element allowing it to escape many dangerous situations as other creatures can't dwell in molten element without getting hurt, secondly, Indosuchus has a corrosive breath that burns the skin of anything that comes into contact with the breath. Most creatures run away from Indosuchus when they come face to face with its breath but Nameless aren't one of them, in order to deter them Indosuchus will go out of its way to consume charge light emitting creatures and certain bioluminescent plant seeds & fruits to turn its corrosive breath into a glowing corrosive breath capable of blinding adversaries who have the misfortune of being in its way. Domesticated: Indosuchus Diablovenator is an incredibly popular creature for survivors to tame due to its ability to traverse the deepest parts of the caverns and its anti-nameless breath. One should note that taming Indosuchus can prove to be a bit difficult as it seems only Nameless venom will pacify them into being tamed. On its anti-nameless breath certain survivors have trained Indosuchus to fire its breath in multiple ways, the two most common ways are 1. A slow moving "breath ball" similar to how a Basilisk spits its venom and 2. A rapid-fire method where Indosuchus fires multiple diminutive but fast moving breath balls at targets, the fire-rate specifically is similar to the very advanced element rifles the group of survivors I'm with mainly use. Technical Stuff: Basic Rundown of what it can do/is. ⦁ A Medium Sized Theropod that's been upscaled a bit to the size of Ark's Baryonyx. ⦁ It is capable of swimming on the surface of molten element and is immune to radiation, emphasis on the surface of molten element. ⦁ It has a breath attack where it spews a corrosive gas like a flamethrower that deals damage and that's kind it. ⦁ If it kills a charge light-emitting creature or consumes a Plant Species Z seed or fruit it's breath attack gets the ability to blind enemies (similar to how Plant Z Fruit flashbang stuff) after a while of using the breath attack on them. However, after a few minutes or so the buff will go away. When buffed the breath attacks will do extra damage to Nameless and Reapers ⦁ Once tamed you can use the breath (buffed or not) in multiple different modes not just the flamethrower-like mode. ⦁ The first new firing mode similar to the Basilisk's spit in that it fires a ball of corrosive gas, it will instantly flashbang enemies if buffed however the ball is slow moving. ⦁ The Second Mode is similar in fire rate to a Tek Rifle, unlike the first mode if buffed the breath attacks will not instantly flashbang enemies instead you need to do several shots to the head of your enemies in order to blind them. ⦁ If you use too much of the charge breath will buffed you will get out of the buff early regardless of mode so don't just spam. ⦁ In order to tame it you must knock it unconscious the usual style then feed it Nameless Venom.

Embolotherium is a very large estimated to be about 8feet tall species in the clade Brontotheriidae and was the largest of its group Brontotheriidae is a family of extinct mammals belonging to the order Perissodactyla, the order that includes horses, rhinoceroses, and tapirs. Superficially, they looked rather like rhinos, although they were actually more closely related to horses; Equidae and Brontotheriidae make up the suborder Hippomorpha it lived in North American and was found in deposits of the Oligocene Epoch (36.6 to 23.7 million years ago). In the Wild embolotherium would be a absolute units standing nearly as tall as a mammoth with the bulk to back up its monsturus size I would have it probably spawn in groups of 2 to 3 as they would be quite tanky and will defend eachother and will be hard to bring down They are quite friendly for their size as they have not many predators but when threatened they will charge what ever did it with and flatten it with their sheer mass and bulk and will hunt them down Tameing To tame such a beast you will need a huge stockpile of rockets as their hide is insanely thick and would resist most projects infused with toxins. It is just like a rockgolem standard knockout tame as it is pretty much a bigger wooly rhino but with less fur and and one strange shaped hore instead of a long sharp horn but you must be careful as the higher it's torp is the more rage it will have which buffs its speed and attack When tamed When tamed embolotherium is a power house able to go head on vs most of the apex carnivorous of the arks but will bearly scrape by most of the fights and will lose about 50% of the time it has a good amount of.speed for its size hits hard and can take a lots of punishment. It can also start a charge and when at max charge it can damage structures up to metal as its bulk and mass are so great it can do nice damage to structures. Abilities When charging embolotherium does something different it charges up a stun like a shadowmane/or trike as it gets faster the longer you run the longer the stun will last up to a maximum so that it doesn't become to op it also would have a buck ability by kicking behind it as to knock back and dangers that have got past its main weapon it can also when charging damage thatch wood Stine and metal structures it does more damage the longer the charge goes. Embolotherium also can be topped up to boost its damage and speed at the cost of its torpor it also gets a pack buff if their is more than 2 near by thx to everyone that votes

Taming the Megalonyx unveils its extraordinary ability to bend the earth around it perfect for defending your base and protecting dinos that are being tamed and is able to regrow nature itself especially for those looking to regrowth trees and other plants Species: Megalonyx jeffersonii Time Period: Pliocene Wild: Megalonyx led a solitary existence, commonly known as the giant ground sloth, was a prehistoric mammal that lived during the Pleistocene epoch ,Megalonyx is believed to have been a solitary animal that spent much of its time in trees, using its strong arms and sharp claws for climbing and reaching foliage. However, it was also capable of moving on the ground and may have dug burrows for shelter. Domesticated: Taming the Megalonyx unveils its extraordinary earth bending capabilities, with its sharp claws and raw strength is capable of vibrating the ground creating seismic phenomena which allows it to bend the earth itself , URE soldiers from Diana's crew were the first to find this dino managed to equip it with anti gravional scrapped tek saddle which does not require element, but can be powered by batteries and element ore, boosting Megalonyx earth bending powers, they also equip him with a short Cowl cape, making it the only creature that looks good on one. Abilities: Druid mode: The Megalonyx can regrowth trees , plants around him perfect for areas that have been deforested , it can increase the production of crops placed by players. Trainer| Megalonyx can increase the rate of growth of babies around it, not only that but it can also train newborns allowing you to imprint faster ( like training on managarm ) drop shield bush: the Megalonyx is able to regrowth fibers from the ground to create a shield bubble type bush that covers the Megalonyx and other dinos around him, creating a miniature shell that stops incoming bombardment perfect against poison type wyverns , tek , rhyniognatha and other meelee type dinos, it can also be used to protect dinos being tamed so they don't take damage from wild creatures. path finder With its earth bending abilities the Megalonix can create rampsand bridges out of stone/mud allowing survivors to cross rivers and oceans to reach solitary islands Tree of protection: Megalonyx can regrowth a special type of tree that buff nearby structures , turrets, etc receive an extra amount of HP under its protection , increase the HP of a structure/turret for a certain amount of time, dinos under its protection receive a small bubble shield that reduces incoming damage, this tree can be climbed like a redwood tree Burrow - Megalonix is able to burrow underground allow it get get to different areas even high ground by traveling underground ( Able to burrow like A rollrat being tamed or a basilik, but is able to come out underground on a different area like the enforcer) Sundering The Megalonyx can use all remaining stamina to slam the ground creating a directional line barrier that shakes the earth launching enemy dinos away from its path caught on its path ( short distance like a jump) slowing them and stunning them for a brief amount of time. Rough ex: Stone Stele: The Megalonyx is able to create a seismic reaction under him with its claws creating a pillar under him lifting the Megalonyx , giving it a higher position advantage against land dinos, the pillar leaves a pulsating debuff that slows stunts any dino around it for a short period of time. shield wall: When on this mode, the Megalonyx creates a stone wall around him, allowing it to creature a distance between him and enemies allowing it disrupt enemy lines Mortar mode : When on this mode the Megalonyx launches a large mud boulder thick enough that slows and petrifies enemies after a period of time making them unable to take damage but are immobile for a short period of time

Dossier: Gigantoscorpio Willsi Time: Visean age of the Carboniferous Diet: Carnivore Temperament: Aggressive Wild "Gigantoscorpio Willsi is a very intelligent and patient hunter. It buries itself under the surface sticking its tail above lying in wait for an unfortunate victim large enough to sense. That unfortunate soul will be pierced by its tail and injected with a very deadly venom that causes complete paralysis, even the biggest and meanest hunters succumb to the toxin." Domesticated "Taming Gigantoscorpio Willsi is a very delicate and careful process, I mentioned previously that it lies in wait for something large enough to sense. I myself have stood above this beast and it didn't attack. Seen as how large they are, they must take a large amount of food to stay sustained. I managed to lure a Diplodocus over to it and before I could get out of the way it attacked, nearly hitting me! Not long after, the Diplodocus collapsed, but Gigantoscorpio Willsi didn't reveal itself straight away. I noticed its head pop up briefly, it must have been looking for predators. It later dug itself out and began feasting upon the paralyzed Diplodocus. I've only seen a handful of these domesticated but from what I've heard, their toxin can be extracted and synthesized into a more potent narcotic that can be used to make darts, some tribes have even gone so far as to use the creature to tranquilize others. Asides from its powerful sedative, its just as stealthy when domesticated as it is wild being able to bury its rider with it. Its outer shell seems to cause it to have a resistance to gunfire and has even been known to defend its rider with its large pincers. Being so large, its tail has alot of range and can be used to pluck gliders out of the sky!" Gameplay: Wild Gigantoscorpio Willsi is a large creature (around the size of a Diplo/Rex) but is extremely shy, it will not come out of its buried form unless there is a paralyzed creature nearby. Before it emerges, it will check to see if any predators or humans are nearby (players can wear Ghillie). Whilst in its buried form, it has its tail revealed in a mound so you can see it slightly. Gigantoscorpio Willsi will only ever attack creatures larger than an Allosaurus like this. Taming Taming Gigantoscorpio Willsi is complicated, players must first lure it out by getting a creature paralyzed in the area either by wild or tamed creatures. Anything smaller than an Allosaurus wont suffice, including babies. Once it has paralyzed something and shows its head, there must be no carnivorous or humans (not wearing ghillie) in the area, otherwise it won't emerge to feed. The creature that has been paralyzed must have bio toxin on it, this causes Gigantoscorpio Willsi to begin losing torpidity. Depending on the level/taming multiplier, it may require more than one creature with bio toxin. After it has passed out from the bio toxin, players can feed it any form of meat. It particularly likes spoiled meat, Kibble is also extremely good! Domesticated After it has finally been tamed, a saddle can be equipped and it can be ridden! The saddle has the player situated on its head, Gigantoscorpio Willsi has some very interesting uses: It has passive resistance to gunfire, including turrets. Holding C/RAS can protect its rider by blocking line of sight from the front with its massive pincers. Left Click/RT is its basic attack, Left click/RT can be held up for a charge attack that causes both broken bones and bleed! Right Click/LT is its tails attack, this can be used to great lengths with knocking other creatures out (increasing melee damage also increases the torpidity damage). Holding Right Click/LT allows it to thrust its tail in the sky piercing flyers/gliders and dragging them down. Pressing CTRL/RB will cause it to bury allowing you to still use its tail. Pressing C/RAS whilst buried will pop its head up. Holding C/RAS cannot protect the rider. Weapons can be equipped while ridden. It is immune to the Paralysis Toxin it produces. Breeding Breeding Gigantoscorpio Willsi is also tricky and delicate, both the male and female must be buried to begin mating. When the egg is laid, it is stuck where the female was until it hatches. Stats Gigantoscorpio Willsi is slow when it comes to movement but is quick with its attacks, it deals significant damage with its left click attack but deals piercing (goes through armor) damage with its tail, albeit weaker than the left click. It is somewhat tanky and can be used as a turret sponge because of the resistance to gunfire.

I Introduce the Labyrinthodontia, it will be a super amphibian made for Aberration. Common Name: Labyrinthodontia. Species: Labyrinthodontia Megalis. Time: Late Paleozoic Diet: Carnivorous/Piscivorous. Temperament: Aggressive. Concepts: (To Know about Labyrinthodontia) The core unique ability for Labyrinthodontia will be a useful sticky slime ability, with its slime it can use it to shoot it at opponents or lay it on the ground working similarly to a bear trap to immobilize things for a little period of time. (I was thinking either 20 or 30 seconds for the time duration) if you have tools you can break free from it faster or help break out other things faster too. Its sticky slime can also allow it to use to climb and scale surfaces when in its sticky mode. The slime grants it an ecological bonus to stay resistant to gas, basilisk poison, reaper acid and radiation. I was thinking too that since it’s an amphibian it will have a multiple stage lifecycle, and they have to breed in water too, the stages consist of a tadpole at juvenile and half tadpole and half adult for adolescent and then adult. And I thought it would be fun if they were sexually dimorphic like shadowmanes. Taming: the taming I wanted to make interesting. So basically you need to get a pheromone gland from a female Labyrinthodontia and use it to make them passive on you, and I decided to make the feeding options flexible, once in the passive state you can approach them and feed them Quality fish baskets, Large Fertilized Eggs, or a Reaper baby for an instant tame Maybe (if they decide to add that) the gland effects last for 5 mins and also you get two from each one you harvest one from. To tell if they’re ready to be fed again their fins on their heads will perk but if not hungry yet they’ll stay in default position. Tamed: Congrats when taming this things. I was thinking it would have a multi-seated saddle for good transport. The slime should make for good exploring and good offense. The reaper buff should make it formidable, and also being an apex predator should help you big time with having a good strong creature on your side. also was thinking it would be cool if it got a buff when consuming reaper pheromones of a nice buff. Dossier: wild- It’s no longer a surprise to see a regular creature taken to an extreme, at least not for me, it’s just sort of the norm now. These super amphibians love and inhabit the rivers, lakes, swamps and the bioluminescent biome. They stand at the top of the food chain and don’t have a nice temperament! I’ve seen them use a slime to hunt and immortalize their prey and to keep themselves safe. Unfortunately it’s hard to observe these buggers because they always want to snack on something. Domesticated- I was not wrong with calling them super amphibians! What’s even more crazy are those brave enough to tame them. Taming is interesting Labyrinthodontia glands apparently sooth their temperament and allow for approaching. They have a nack for large fertilized eggs, quality fish baskets and especially reaper spawn those help them to tame in an instant! These creatures have an interesting and useful sticky slime they use like I observed them using in the wild. They can use this slime to immobilize things to shooting things with it or pouring it on the ground like a trap, it also grants them protection from gas, basilisk poison, reaper acid and radiation. They also gain a significant buff when they consume reaper pheromones too. so that all for this creature I hope you guys like it, it was a ton of fun making this creature have a good day fellow Survivors. Also my apologies if the it isn’t that super good.

Introducing Gorgonops, ARK’s Dagger-toothed Bloodhound Common Name: Gorgonops Species: Gorgonops secutor Time: Late Permian Diet: Carnivore Temperament: Aggressive Wild: “Gorgnops secutor has the most developed sense of smell I’ve witnessed among the local wildlife. It’s a hunter in every sense of the word: once it memorizes the scent of its next prey, it will seek it out anywhere, no matter how far it runs. Gorgonops prefers to take its time to bring down its target, since it’s no fast runner. Furthermore, its sturdy physique allows it to resist venom and toxins that would knock out or even kill any other creature of the same size. That means Gorgonops doesn’t have to worry about snake bites, bug stings, poison gas and such! Good thing it’s not so ravenous to devour anything it smells!” Domesticated: “I’ve met some ingenious survivors who specialized in training their Gorgonops as bloodhounds. This beast’s smelling is so masterly, it can be taught to recognize the scent of just about anything. Wild herbivores, tamed creatures, enemy survivors, you name it! It can even learn to detect hidden traps or treasures! Moreover, tracking creatures such as Parasaurus are able to detect threats from greater distances, with a tamed Gorgonops’ help. But that’s not all: thanks to its durability, survivors can use Gorgonops to carry knocked out creatures on a special transport sledge.” Introduction: Greetings, survivors! I introduce to you the stalker of scent; the Gorgonops! The foundational ideas and selling points for this therapsid include: Role as a tracker and taming assistant Taming method involving kidnapping Ability to find max-level creatures Immunity to torpor and toxins Enhances the tracking abilities of other creatures Can drag unconscious creatures to safer locations for taming The Gorgonops has repeatedly appeared in votes and makes it to the Top 10 consistently, but hasn’t made it through. As one of ARK’s scrapped creatures and one of the few from the mainstream to have not made it into the game, this concept for Ragnarok will give it time to shine. Wild: Gorgonops most often patrol the arid zones of Ragnarok. Their incredible sense of smell allows them to detect creatures in a wide range around them. Not being very fast, they tend to go after specifically slower prey, which includes survivors. They’re patient, and will track down their targets until an opportunity presents itself. You’ll usually find Gorgonops in mated pairs, since they guard something valuable. Taming Process: To protect their offspring from the dangers of the ARK, Gorgonops will build their dens in more secure and healthy areas. In these dens, they will store food and raise their pups isolated from the outside world. Survivors can enter these dens and kidnap the pups for themselves. However, parents have increased aggression towards anything within the vicinity of their dens, gaining a parental buff. The owners of the den will need to be dealt with in whatever way a survivor desires, and ensure that they can collect the pups in relative safety. From there, survivors will need to tend to the young beast’s needs until they are satisfied and reach adulthood. Tamed: Congratulations! You’ve successfully tamed a Gorgonops! With such a fierce predator and expert tracker in your hands, its utility will be immeasurable. Actions: Primary Attack (, , ): A basic bite attack. This ignores armor. Secondary Attack (, , ): The Gorgonops raises its nose to the air and takes in a scent. A reticle will appear, allowing for aim. Creatures sniffed out by a Gorgonops will be permanently tracked until they sniff out a different target. The current target will have their level and stats revealed like HLNA. Learning the scent of a specific animal will allow the Gorgonops to passively identify others of that species in the future. They can also identify the smells of objects like traps and explorer notes. Roar (Click C, , ): A strictly cosmetic roar. Jump (Press Space, , ): A basic jump. Cannot jump with the Gorgonops Sled Saddle. Passive Abilities: Autoalert: Like a Parasaur, the Gorgonops can detect specific threats. Because of its sense of smell, it can better pinpoint specific species. However, it needs to have been exposed to the scent before in order to properly warn their masters. Immunities: Gorgonops are immune to the effects of torpor, poisons, and radiation. Gorgonops Den: In their inventory, survivors can craft a den like those found in the wild. This structure can house anything up to the size of an adult Gorgonops and can store food like a trough. Babies will be able to eat from the stored reserves, and will grow at a faster rate while in the den. There is also notable insulation. Treasure Hunting: When idle, Gorgonops have a chance to uncover rare resources, equipment, blueprints that are added to their inventory. The quality of unearthed gear is entirely random. Tracking Buff: Nearby creatures with similar tracking ability such as Parasaurs, Troodons, and Direwolves have their own detection range increased in the presence of a Gorgonops. Sled Saddle: The Gorgonops has a standard Gorgonops Saddle. A more advanced Gorgonops Sled Saddle can be constructed as well. Unconscious creatures can be placed onto the sled and transferred to a different location. Multiple Gorgonops may be required to drag larger creatures. Two for a Rex, three for a Bronto, etc. Having this saddle equipped prevents jumping. The sled saddle can also carry cargo and can have structures placed on it’s surface area, great for sleigh rides in the snow and dessert also able to be used as a carry bus for multiple players if chairs are placed on it, because Gorgo is very quick it’s a faster alternative to platform saddle creatures and diplos. The sled can be used as a battering ram fill the sled up with rocks and switch to battering ram lead the Gorgo up a slope and detach the sled it will proceed to quickly crash down the hill destroying any structures in its path. Parental Buff (Wild Only): In the presence of their own pups, wild Gorgonops receive a buff that increases damage output and damage resistance. Pups raised by survivors don’t develop this behavior. Utility & Scenarios: PvE: Gorgonops provide lots of use when it comes to taming creatures. Their scent being able to identify the levels and stats of creatures makes finding worthy tames far easier. Bringing unconscious creatures to safety as they tame is also incredibly helpful. If you need to return to a particular creature later since you don’t have the resources, you can leave the creature marked and come back once you’re ready. The Gorgonops Den is great for raising babies with the growth buff and food reserves. The den can also act as a temporary base when on the go. Digging up valuable treasure is certainly valuable in itself. Gorgonops may see use in swamps and other areas with lots of venomous insects and beasts. PvP: Gorgonops make for great base defenders. Their autoalert defining specific species is paired well with Parasaurs who identify particular groups of enemies, now at an increased range. In the midst of a fight, their fangs come into good use when ignoring armor of all kinds, allowing them to deal high damage to normally beefy targets. If a target is sent on the run, the Gorgonops can pick up on their scent and hunt them down until they’re caught. Sniffing out traps can ease raiding by helping raid parties avoid disaster. The main thing to note is that the Gorgonops isn’t a great fighter. It operates more as an ambushing assassin that ganks when opportunities present themselves. Directly involving themselves in battle leaves them vulnerable to creatures who fill those bruising roles better. Conclusion: If there is any creature that truly deserves to join the roster of ARK, it is the Gorgonops. Countless entries in previous submissions with a wide variety of ideas show that this creature can work! In the most popular map of ARK history, bringing back a scrapped creature, and a popular one at that, would give players the best gaming experience imaginable. Have fun, survivors!

After almost 2 years of constant breeding, every larger group now has incredibly mutated dinos that are nowhere close to what the game was originally balanced around. This means that dinos like Rhinos or Therizinosaurs deal much more damage and are much harder to kill than they were 1.5 years ago when the game released. Politically, the game is currently very stale, with alliances constant, no big conflicts and many people leaving the main cluster for others clusters or other games for a fresher and more exciting experience. A wipe would easily reset breeding back to its original state and bring these dinos back down to what they were originally, and bring back many players that have left over the last year. edit: im talking (mostly) about the Official PvP network, non-legacy, main cluster)
