Taurmini (Taur-min-eye)

Went for another Zodiac / Birthstone kind of creature for this May, or Next. (Emerald with Gemini / Taurus, Twin Bulls.)

Habitat:

(Farmlands / Space ??? ) A bit confusing since It is a Zodiac creature after all, but then again, the creature eventually settled on farms in Ancient Ark, and continues to do farm work to this day.

Weight:

465 kg

Height:

1.8 m

Obtained From:

Cave ( Or CSP )

About the Taurmini Eggs:

It has been discovered that the Taurmini egg is from Ancient Ark. The egg appears to be cold to the touch on the dark side and hot on the other, the metal-like material surrounding the egg seeming to be at room temperature. It is one of the most difficult eggs in Ark to hatch, for the white side must stay in the sunlight while the darker side must stay in the moonlight. The two sides should never be in the other's light, for the creature growing within both sides will reject the foreign light, and eventually die without their own specific source of light to be able to hatch.

The Emeralds surrounding the egg gives the creature the ability to absorb their respective lights, and the Emerald in the middle is a measurement for how far the light from the moon or sun should cover either side of the egg. For example, if you put the light side under the sun, and the light tends to reach over into the darker side of the egg, the Emerald will flash every two seconds as a warning until the egg has been adjusted in a proper position. Granted, it is a tedious task to hatch the egg, but well worth it in the end to successfully hatch a new companion.


About the Taurmini Creature:

Although the creature is intertwined with it's twin after hatching, it is still capable of vigorous movements without harming the other. The tail they are bound by is actually quite flexible, allowing both creatures to have some space between the two. They are also able to be in the same light the other takes in as substance, so long as the twin stays by the other twin's side. If their tails were to somehow be unraveled, they would immediately grow weak, and die without the other. If somehow one of the twins falls ill, this is because the creature has not absorbed enough light to take in as energy, and eventually the other would follow. In order to take care of this situation properly, make sure your creature is always out and about 24/7, allowing both to properly feed off natural light.

Upon further research, these creatures were used for farming in the days of Ancient Ark. Their aggressive nature was tamed by hard work, and eventually they became the docile species that they are today. The way to tell if a Taurmini was tame, was the emerald nose ring that it has through its nasal septum. The nose ring, along with it's hooves and horns, is made from pure emerald, and was created solely by the creature itself. It is a symbol of a special bond with it's owner, and allowed only the owner to control and guide the creature through farm work. If anyone besides the owner tried to control the creature, it would immediately revolt and temporarily show its aggressive nature.


Pings for peeps! ❤️

Edit: I JUST REALIZED! One half could be used as "Gemini" while the other creature could be used as "Taurus". Twin creatures that could be in the CSP/Cave? Dunno...

@achimenes
Really love seeing another Zodiac suggestion from you. x3
I feel like 2 bulls in one creature image might be a bit cramped, I mean, sikeree worked, but they are slimmer, 2-legged animals.
It might've been better to go with a 2 headed design in likeness to ahjoon.

But nonetheless, love the suggestion!! 😃
