Dzilijūra creature concept



Dzilijūra: (Sea light Leviathan)

(Name): Dzilijūra (mixture of two words, roughly translates to 'Water Light')

(Other titles): Sea Light, Water Light, Rainbow Sea Dragon, (Kool Aid Monster)

(Pronunciation): Duh-zill-e-jur-awh

Carnivore (Leviathan class)

(Attitude): surprisingly passive until provoked

(Would be found): in the Deep Grand Reef or Inactive lava zone. They'll be found deep down where it's very dark, and are often found near heat vents

(Additional description): Dzilijūras are large colourful predators, these life forms patrol their biome/territory mouth agape to swallow passing prey that darts into their mouth. While their body might be bright and bioluminescent, the insides of their mouths are not giving the illusion that it might be an escape for prey, quite literally tricking the prey to swimming directly into its waiting mouth. They don't harm the player until they go very close to their mouth or attack them. Their diet is any small fish that can fit in their mouth, due to lacking a strong jaw they can't exactly chew and have to make sure they don't swallow something too big.

(Size): They are an average whopping 28.8 ft (8.78 meters) in length from snout to the tip of the flows. Their 'wings' are always the same length of their body, the only exceptions to this is birth defects, or being attacked and loosing a piece of their 'wing' They may be long, but are only about 3.1ft in height. This means they can't swallow the player. Juveniles start out at maybe 1.2 long and only 2 inches in height.

(Attack power):

Bite- (40%) (an additional 5% for each time the player is shaken around, since sometimes they'll shake the player and other times not) Swat- 10% (a swing from one of their 'wings' will definitely knock some air out of the player)



(This particular Dzilijūra is named Kool Aid, and unlike her fellow Dzilijūras she lives closer to the surface in the Dunes biome and is smaller than the normal Dzilijūra, she can be told apart from the red tip on her head flow. Ether way Kool Aid is attempting to hunt Peepers but they're a little quick for her. The player in a Seamoth accompanies, its adviced to turn off the headlights around Dzilijūras, which makes it easier for you to see them and harder for them to see you)
