CHARACTER INFO

A wild Slugcat bestowed with the Mark of Communication by Pine Needles Bound in Red whilst accidentally passing through their can… which resulted in them being obsessed with Iterators, Gods, Ancients, and Ascension. They are meek, think highly of themselves and Iterators [being capable of higher thought than other animals], and are stubborn. Since then, they’ve started collecting pearls as they see them as extremely valuable – not just colored pearls! Any pearls! Because pearls contain Iterator data, something otherworldly and interesting and touched by literal Gods. Looks down on Scavengers for hoarding pearls purely because they’re shiny.

GAMEPLAY

Gameplay: Requires 4 food pips to hibernate, able to store two more.
Ability: Camouflage. When laying down in the snow her pristine white fur blends in with the surroundings, making her more difficult to spot by predators. They can still see her from very close up, and it’s very difficult to fool predators during a preexisting chase.
Ability: Charge. Able to charge at enemies in a straight line, dealing damage roughly worth a spear throw. Each time it is used one of her antlers breaks off, until none remain. It takes a few successful cycles to regrow each one.
Ability: Pearl hoarding. When hibernating in a shelter with 2+ pearls stored inside, there is a chance of gaining a buff: gaining a food pip, spawning with a spear/bomb, speeding up antler regrowth, slight movement speed increase, etc. The chance to get a buff, get a better buff, and the slight chance of getting two at once increase the more pearls are in the shelter. The effects last one cycle. Each shelter has a separate pearl count, but you can move the pearls around.
Karma: Stuck at Karma 3. Able to unlock maximum Karma 10 after visiting enough Echoes.
