✔️ [March] Creature Suggestion - Tydes

prairie • 16 February 2022 at 12:26 AM

An incredibly late March Suggestion I made with @pipkitten and @poe!
Hopefully it can be squeezed in for 2022.
This creature is inspired by the "Ides of March"! So not your typical march creature.

The Tydes:
Tydes eggs only hatch when clover is allowed to grow on their surface. When they are first born, they are thought to bring good fortune with their generous spirit. As they mature, they become more self-centred due to a fungal disease infecting the clover that lives mutualistically on the creature that affects their brain. Once the fungus takes effect, Tydes seem to inspire greed in others to the point of aggressive behaviour. They are not looked upon favourably by the citizens of Ark for this reason. Somehow, the creatures go about their lives absorbed in their own greed and do not seem aware of their own bad reputations.

Tydes Eggs:
A roughly textured egg that brings up feelings of greed and aggression in onlookers. The shell is adorned with laurels and appears to have a clover growing on the surface. They are near hatching when the clover splits.

@prairie omg, lovely! This art request for March 2022 has already been sent out, but I'm seeing if I can sneak this creature in. 😉

Thanks for this suggestion! ❤️

@Ian
I'm so happy you like this suggestion!
Lets hear it for sneaking in stuff lol.

This creature isn't the typical March/St.Patricks day creature and would ideally come out on the Ides of March (the 15th) But it could be a cave monthly as well, though with having to squeeze it in I'm not sure if it'd be ready just then.
