Megafauna: Difference between revisions

All types of megafauna will devour unconscious or dead victims, restoring their health by half of the creature's maximum health, and gibbing or dusting it.

=Types of Megafauna=

==Ash Drake==

[[File:Dragon.png|128px]]

An enormous drake that roams the land, draconic guardians of the Necropolis. Although it's considered one of the easiest megafauna, it is still extremely deadly if you don't avoid its attacks. It's advisable to carry a fire extinguisher when fighting one of these.

===Attacks===

It acts as a melee creature, chasing down and attacking its target while also using a variety of different attacks. As the drake gets damaged, swoop and fire rain attacks become more common. If the drake falls below 50% health, the drake will stop raining fire in favor of swooping more often, and will also start triple swooping, trying to crush its target three times before landing. If it lands on an unconscious target, it will gib them.

The ash drake attacks are as follows:

*It will breathe three lines of fire towards its target in a shotgun pattern, igniting and heavily damaging anything caught in the blast. Temporary lava pools may appear around its target during this attack.

*It will cause some of the ground to turn into lava temporarily, with a fade-in effect on the effected tiles.

*If its health is lower than 50%, it can create a small arena around its target, of which all but one tile will become lava after a short fade-in effect. The safe tile will be marked with a green rune, and the attack is repeated three times before it lands in the middle.

*If its health is lower than 50%, it can fire a large radial burst of fire lines three times in quick succession.

1. A spectral blade[[File:Spectral_blade.png]]that allows its wielder to call ghosts to it, enhancing its damage. The ghosts can be seen and can point, but cannot talk.<br>

2. A lava staff[[File:Storm staff.png]]that allows its wielder to create lava, and a spellbook of sacred flame[[File:Sacred_flame.png]], which allows its user to set themselves on fire and gives nearby people vulnerability to being set on fire.<br>

*The drakeling has two attacks. Fire breath will cause the Drakeling to breathe a short flame that is effective against fauna but worthless off of Lavaland. Wing flap causes a large, powerful gust of air to push stuff away, deal damage to fauna, and break rocks.

4. A bottle of dragon's blood[[File:Bloodvial.gif]]with one of the following effects:

*Transforms the drinker into a skeleton, giving it a few racial bonuses.

*Gives the drinker permanent immunity to lava.

*Gives the drinker a lesser drake transformation spell. Lesser ash drakes have access to all the attacks of an ash drake, but have less health and no burn damage resistance. To swoop, alt-click on a tile or target. '''Remember: If you weren't one prior to becoming a drake, you are not an antagonist!'''

==Colossus==

[[File:Colossus.png|182px]]

A huge, towering being. Slow, but powerful, ancient and extremely deadly. The colossus has a degree of sentience, proving this in speech during its attacks. When shot, the Colossus will display glowing yellow shields, but they are cosmetic and do not in fact reduce the damage it takes.

The Colossus attacks are as follows:

4. At 33% health it gains this attack. It will fire two spirals of death bolts, spinning in opposite directions.

5. When its health is below 50%, it can fire a circle of death bolts in a random pattern.

==={{anchor|Colossus Loot}}Loot===

1. An Anomalous Crystal[[File:Anomaly_crystal.png]]which requires activating using one of the following methods:<br>

*Touch: Use the crystal with an empty hand.<br>

*Bump: Move against the crystal.<br>

*Bullet: Shoot it with bullets (also includes syringe gun syringes).<br>

*Energy: Shoot it with energy shots (includes tasers, energy bolas, somatorays, ions).<br>

Once activated, it will have one of the following effects:

*Theme Warp: Transforms the theme of the room the crystal is in, morphing the floor, tables and chairs and spawning some flora. Possible themes are Lavaland, Winter, Jungle and Abductor.

*Emitter: The crystal shoots a random projectile chosen between fireball, spellblade, x-ray laser, meteorshot or colossus death bolt.

*Refresher: The crystal will 'refresh' a random item in front of it, transforming them into freshly-spawned versions of themselves; it can, for example, refill a gun. Some items are blacklisted, and admin-spawned items cannot be refreshed.

*Possession: The crystal will transfer your mind and body into any harmless animal close to the crystal. If no animals are in range, the crystal will spawn a cockroach. Once inside the animal, you can get out at any time, but it will gib the animal's body. If the animal dies while you're possessing it, you'll die as well.<br>

2. Voice of God[[File:VOG.png]], implantable via surgery. Once implanted, it provides you with a button to Speak '''<span style="color: #7F282A; font-size: 300%;">LIKE THIS</span>'''. When Speaking, there are a number of commands that allow you to force others to take certain actions.

==Bubblegum==

[[File:Bubblegum.gif|182px]]

===GPS Signal===

"Bloody Signal"

===Statistics===

'''Difficulty:''' Very Hard

'''Speed:''' Slow

===Attacks===

Bubblegum's fight is centered on movement even more so than other megafauna, don't stop moving if you can help it. Bubblegum will attempt to hit a target in melee if it is able to, and will constantly retreat from its target when not attacking. If a target is unconscious and on blood, it is automatically grabbed and devoured. If Bubblegum finds no targets, it'll shoot a line of blood in a random direction, with increasing range as it loses health. When wounded by brute damage, Bubblegum has a chance to spray blood under itself.

The bubblegum attacks are as follows:

*If its target is on blood, it will attempt to grab them through the blood for minor damage. The attack has a short warm-up period before it deals damage.

*It charges three times at the target with a small overshoot, destroying terrain and dealing 30 brute damage to anyone it hits.

*It summons a ring of hallucinations around the target and charges them, hallucinations deal 15 damage if they hit.

*It has a chance to enrage, increasing its speed and making it immune to projectiles temporarily

Once it falls below 50% health, it hallucination rushes or circle rushes instead.

*Hallucination rushes consist of five hallucinations charging at the target in quick succession.

*Circle rushes consist of bubblegum and three hallucinations rushing at the target three times in quick succession.

It also leaves behind the following:<br>

==Legion==

Legion spawns from the necropolis gate in the far north of lavaland. It is the guardian of the Necropolis and emerges when you knock on the doors of the necropolis. Whenever Legion emerges, everything in lavaland will receive a notice via color, audio, and text.

'''Difficulty:''' Easy

'''Speed:''' Very Slow

===Attacks===

The Legion attacks are as follows:<br>

*Ranged: It behaves like a normal legion by retreating and firing legion skulls at the target.

*Charge: It will spin and rush at the target, dealing melee damage when possible.

==={{anchor|Legion Loot}}Loot===

Every time you shatter a skull (when it's too small to split) there's a 10% chance of it dropping a [[File:Necrocrate.png]] [[Shaft_Miner#Necropolis_Chest_Loot|necropolis tendril loot chest]].

Like Lava Staffs, this doubles as a robust melee weapon, with 25 burn damage on hit.

==Blood Drunk Miner==

A miner destined to wander forever, engaged in an endless hunt.

"Resonant Signal"  

===Statistics===

'''Difficulty:''' Easy

'''Speed:''' Slow

===Attacks===

Effectively a highly aggressive miner, the blood-drunk miner has very few attacks but compensates by being highly aggressive.

After any attack, it may transform its cleaving saw:<br>

*Untransformed: Attacks very rapidly for smaller amounts of damage.

*Transformed: Attacks at normal speed for higher damage.

The blood-drunk miner's attacks are as follows:<br>

*It will rapidly dash at its target.

*It will fire its kinetic accelerator.

*It will rapidly attack in melee.

==={{anchor|Blood Drunk Miner Loot}}Loot===

*Open: It will deal a wide range of AOE damage around the user. However, it attacks somewhat slowly in this mode.

*Closed: It will attack a single target extremely quickly, causing a high amount of damage in a short amount of time.

==Hierophant==

[[File:Hierophant1.gif|82px]]

A massive metal club that hangs in the air as though waiting. It spawns in an arena to make you dance to its beat.

===GPS Signal===

"Zealous Signal"

===Statistics===

'''Difficulty:''' Medium

'''Speed:''' Slow

===Attacks===

The Hierophant fights in an arena. If the target is outside of the arena it will create an arena around the target for 10 seconds. It provides enough time for the target to retreat if they wish to do so. Cross Blasts and the AoE burst gain additional range as Hierophant loses health, while Chasers gain additional speed.

The Hierophant's attacks are as follows:<br>

*Blinks to the target after a very brief delay, damaging everything near the start and end points.

*If below 50% health, blinks to the target multiple times, dealing damage as above.

*Creates a chaser that seeks out the target, leaving a trail of blasts. It has a chance to spawn a second, slower chaser the more health it has lost.

*Creates an expanding AoE burst.

===Attacks===

The king goat is inside a 9x9 arena protected by two guards. During stage 1 it is generally a cake walk, the later stages however can prove extremely challenging and downright impossible for less skilled miners.

The three stages of the king goat:

*Stage 1: The king goat is pretty much just a slightly more robust regular goat, the king will proceed to charge at you full force in the hopes of taking you out easily but can be easily defeated by even an unexperienced miner.

*Stage 2: This is where things start heating up. At this stage the king goat will become slightly larger and start doing special attacks which range from summoning guards to come to his aid, to stomping his hooves on the ground causing the arena to shake, and an AOE explosion to appear around him. Most miners do not make it pass this stage but if you do...

*Stage 3: Oh boy you're in for it now. At this stage the king goat will completly heal, grow slightly bigger, and start glowing. It has the exact same attacks as stage 2 but is more aggressive overall. If you can defeat him at stage 3 he will fall over dead on the ground and drop a ladder so you may now leave the arena (but dont forget to grab the loot first!)
