Hiii i know i've been dead for many many many months but I opened up limited slot commissions, for Busts/Sticker packs, 0/5 slots currently! Add me direct on discord at zeljko, where I'm more likely to respond to and see messages,
She's been in the works for thirty minutes at most [at the time of posting], so she probably won't stay like this exactly. She's still a work in progress, lol
Redid my Prospector ref, also shifted my slugcat anatomy along the way [might redo Andrew's with this new development?]
Still has his kid that I gave him for some reason, but we're not gonna talk about that much. Anyway, here's me talking about it [under cut as of writing because I don't know how long this will be]:
This is just gonna be some elaboration on the bullet points in the ref itself.
- Slugpups generally have a track record of being attracted to shiny things [this is often seen in game with how they act with pearls]. Rain world doesn't necessarily have any rocks or things of the like to interact with, but there are pearls, which I feel Prospector would collect and keep on him for their different colors and shiny properties without even thinking about what's possibly encoded on them.
One thing leads to another, and Dot gets caught with a pearl of Prospec's and ever since then has been around him, much to Prospector's displeasure at first.
- Because of the nature of the beast that is Rain World's environment, it's often uncertain how much food a slugcat will have access to at any given point. Because of this, Prospector will have Dot eat first whenever it's unclear if there's enough food for the both of them, and will begin eating at the same time as Dottie when there's an obvious abundance of food. Prospec will NEVER begin eating before Dot does.
- Dot is a young Scuppy. Bigger than most others of her age, but still quite small and young. He cannot eat lizard meat very well because of this, and so Prospector will have to gather blue fruit [which are actually bug pupas], batflies, noodlefly offspring, popcorn plants, etc. for Dot to eat. His own diet consists mostly of protein rich lizard meats, but Dottie's own diet is much more diverse and lighter than his.
Also, some smaller things about Prospector, some covered in ref, some not:
- His head is incredibly hard, and is much like a lizard's in regards to its invincibility against normal spears and explosive spears [electric spears will not pierce it, but the electric shock will stun him for roughly five seconds, maybe longer]
- He's ever so slightly magnetic. Some rubble will stick to his body very loosely, which can be good for temporarily holding onto things that can be thrown as distractions, and spears can be stuck to his body to be held as well, although it doesn't have much use beyond those.
- Scugs can swallow things to store them, typically one item. Due to his size, though, Prospector can swallow and store up to four items in his stomach.
- Prospector has the throwing strength of Gourmand [three times the average slugcat strength], and can body slam lizards too. Throwing things at full strength has a fifteen second cooldown, and during this time, items are thrown at average strength.
- Despite having a hard head that is impervious to spear injuries, he still has a hard helmet that helps to protect against them as well. It isn't shown, but typically he will have Dottie wearing it since their head isn't as naturally well protected as his own.
