Colors might change since I kind of want a silver/grey/yellowish creature instead, but I like the egg πŸ˜‹ I'm not sure why it turned blue. I will update it if I decide to color it differently~

Any ideas on colors? I might even embellish things a little more.

Also, any help with description writing would be appreciated. I'm no good with those >_< (also, I'm stuck between Shirudo vs Forctis for the names)

Here's what I got so far:
Egg:
- The second layer of the egg (that kind of looks like petals) "bloom" when the creature is ready to hatch.
- the second layer is a protective shield that shelters the first layer (blue-ish) thing.

Creature
- The 'shields' that the Shirudo wears is nearly indestructible/protects them from physical injury.
- Still vulnerable to extreme cold/heat
- Is a digger; diet is rocks/gemstones. Doesn't like meat or veggies.

I'm kind of on a creature suggesting spree, sorry! ;A;

Egg Description:
When Shirudo eggs are laid, they are buried deep under the ground to secure themselves from predators. This is, in fact, the only vulnerable stage of the species.

As the small creature develops inside and becomes ready to hatch, the egg will gradually rise towards the surface of the ground where they lie. They then begin to undergo a process similar to that of seeds and plants as they begin to emerge from their shell.

Creature Description:
Shirudo are commonly known as the "survivors". Unlike many other creatures, Shirudo are naturally indestructible. This provides complete protection against other creatures from the minute they are hatched. They can neither perish from extreme temperatures, nor from a lack of nutrition. Being excellent adapters, they are able to thrive in almost any condition. Although their preferred diet is composed of rocks and gemstones.

The SAR has questioned the material that their "armour" is composed of, however no Arkian has been able to capture and examine one the species due to their extremely shy and elusive nature.

[I'm lagging really bad right now so I'll have to organize the thingy later]

@iceiceice IT IS AMAZING! I love it so much! I really like the second coloured version. Is there a third stage too? Cause in the picture I can spot something that looks like an arrow pointing at a third stage xD .

@leonx
I don't mind. πŸ˜ƒ Please go ahead 😊
@ida92
Yaay~! I like blue, but the colors seem too similar to the Rok and Illumilux. Also, wanted something silver, but I somehow made everything blue. I might tweek the 2nd colored one because I like the silver/yellow, but not sure what the 'blue' part should be.

There was suppose to be a third stage, but it didn't fit and I didn't like it XD (It's the same, just different poses)

@iceiceice I would like to see a third stage anyway, but I still like this creature even with just 2 stages. ^^

Alright ^^ From what is listed so far:

Egg Description:
When Shirudo eggs are laid, they are buried deep under the ground to secure themselves from predators. This is, in fact, the only vulnerable stage of the species.

As the small creature develops inside and becomes ready to hatch, the egg will gradually rise towards the surface of the ground where they lie. They then begin to undergo a process similar to that of seeds and plants as they begin to emerge from their shell.

You can change any part of it if you'd like ^^ Tried to make it a bit different then Saurogapi Eggs 😊

@leonx
Thank you for writing πŸ˜ƒ some of the things are a little different that I thought o-o (I wasn't sure how to explain them πŸ˜‹)

I like the description (it emerging from the ground and its personalityπŸ˜ƒ 😈 )

They are originally vulnerable to disease and extreme heat/cold, but I like them being indestructable too. Muhahaha (:<

Thank you; I will credit you 😊

@iceiceice
No problem ^^ And yeah, I was going to make it the petals sort of "revealing" but thought it might be too similar to the Saurogapi πŸ˜‹

And thanks ^^ Also thought it said it was immune to disease and heat/cold, didn't see that part xD But glad it worked out 😊

If you'd like to, you can change the parts you find necessary 😊 And thanks! 😊

I really like the second colouring.. This creature is overall really good and I would want one! I think it should have an insect-y name, so how about that "Forctis" name.

Really amazing job,

@iceiceice It's beautiful, one of the best I've seen. However, the head ornament looks a bit too big for my taste and kinda makes it look silly, but that's the only issue I have. Good luck with your suggestion! πŸ˜ƒ

@bunnyshadow
sorry, I just saw this.

Thank you!

Yeah, I suppose it can seem big O_O With a narrow neck like that, the head might snap o______________o

I based the design on the Alien creature from the movie Alien cause I thought it looked interesting πŸ˜ƒ
