The warm waters near flower cove are the perfect place for crata peretina to roam about. With food in abundance & warm sun rays shimmering down, life is luxurious. Almost.
At least for Moochie.
Despite having vulnerable skin, his powerful poison & ability to paralyze others means Moochie is largely unbothered by most predators. The bright colors act as a warning & it seems to be a common trait among crata peretina as a whole. His cerata glowing bright yellow & orange do well in warding off threats.
But it also makes him an easy-to-see target for those who are willing to try hunting him.
Turgeons are his greatest enemy.
Observing from up high the mesa’s canyon cliffs, this elegant vorpalus doesn’t reveal herself to most. But she’s usually the first to notice someone new enter her domain.
Dunestrider has lived here for many years.
She is Ringtail’s favorite mate & is older than him too. But unlike him, Dunstrider isn’t as quick to start a fight & usually watches a potentially threat from afar before confronting it. She’s very protective of the mesa waterhole along with any food she finds there. Her favorites being fruits & eggs of ground-dwelling creatures.
Dunestrider is an experienced mother, having raised both Ringtail & the previous male’s kids. Most having survived to even have kids of their own.
May she live long & her bloodline stretch far.
Between the mountains & the mesa, it’s not uncommon to see a male vorpalus walk through the land with confidence & grace with every step.
Ringtail is his name.
His territory wasn’t always his however. Originally an aging older male reigned there till Ringtail challenged the old timer. The older male was larger & had the weight advantage but Ringtail was faster, had more stamina, & outmaneuvered many of the older male’s attacks. The older male couldn’t hold out the fight for long, reluctantly he surrendered the territory & any females living nearby.
While he doesn’t help raise any of the kids he has with the females, he does have a favorite female living close by in the mesa.
Recently departed from his mother’s care, this cautious exterreri wanders Sonaria with one goal in mind. To find a new home of his own.
Meet Gnasher.
During the night Gnasher travels throughout the biomes in search of an unoccupied territory to call home, using his dark colors to stay hidden. At daybreak he retreats back into caves he’d happens to find while searching. Despite his caution he’s not incompetent, he hunts for himself well & has a liking to the taste of sochuri & xeleviprex.
Gnasher’s recent travels has landed him here in swamp hill. There’s caves to sleep in & trees to climb, he might just make this his new home.
Patrolling a vast territory spanning from mountains to pride rocks, a female glimmer ghartokus dwells.
This is Bramble.
Despite her mutation making her easy to spot, she’s still a skilled hunter. Working around her disadvantage by hunting slower targets & using her size to steal kills from other predators. Hunting herself, she primarily targets gramoss, felikxtrox, lerachu, young lmakosauruodon & occasionally the herds of moemoea & avothius that pass through her territory.
Lately though Bramble has been seen gathering materials into a nest beneath pride rocks. Seems this powerful huntress is soon to be a first time mother.
That begs the question though, who’s the soon-to-be father?
This is a sideblog of my main blog dedicated to Creatures of Sonaria.
My main blog is dedicated to Sky: Children of the Light here @wanderingskychild
I’ve been playing COS for a while & just wanted a place to upload screenshots of some of my favorite creatures & some ocs. Not to mention descriptions on the ways they survive, their relations with others & some headcanons for some species. Observed through the perspective of wildlife photographers.
This blog was largely inspired by Somalian Roger & his Documentary videos on YouTube. So check them out too. Enjoy! 😊👍
The grand journey! :o
saw this huge beautiful parade of boreal wardens n thought i should share
Cave divers be like:
Something so goofy happened when I was playing as my Korathos. (This is kinda long, but there’s a summary at the end).
✨Story time✨
I was chilling at the desert oasis near the water, and I had a nest set up and everything.
I don’t think my adult model loaded when I actually turned into one, but there were a lot of hints that I still was an adult Korathos, like the nest I was sitting on;
so this guy, thinking that I was still a juvenile came in from the water with a semi-aquatic trying to kill me.
(I think they may have been the one that killed my child too)
But they come in and starts to bite me, so naturally, I bite back, and I kill them.
They then come back with a different creature, and I kill them again,
After like a couple of minutes or so (maybe the save slot cooldown time), they come back AGAIN, but with a stronger looking creature
I kill them again, but this time I chased them into the water and get them
at this point there’s 3 carcasses around my nest, and the oasis looks like a kosing zone because there was nobody else really nearby at the time except for a giant ahh korathos surrounded by corpses
And when the fella comes back a forth time they asked me “Why were you fast?”, and I replied that I picked the devious elder (less weight I believe makes you faster), which then came the question “Your not a juvi?”
No, I wasn’t
Bud was dealing with the full creature there
(I guess it probably didn’t help that I was playing a female because the cool back spikes are less prominent on the female korathos models.)
Anyways, we actually left off on a friendly note, said our goodbyes, and I found the whole situation quite entertaining.
✨Summary✨
Guy comes in thinking my Korathos was still a child (easy to beat)
They die 3 times before learning that it was in fact NOT a child, but a devious elder, and devious it was indeed as they did not expect me to be that fast.
My attempt at a Kendyll from Creatures of Sonaria!
This is Little Shit the Norskogg, everyone say hello
Did a silly
I saw that Flix might be getting redesigned and decided to do my rendition of what I'd want in a redesign! More under the cut ✦
Traits list (some are on the ref but I'll expand on them here):
I changed the palette quite a bit. I like the original black and gold, but it didn't give me space vibes, so I wanted the highlights to vary more in hue. That might be a controversial move, but I like it.
Keeping with the colour change, the blood and fire breath would probably be pink here.
The eyes are on the side of the head. This is inspired by seagulls, and sort of by their herbivory, although I would make Flix an omnivore (if not a carnivore) if I could. There aren't enough omnivores in CoS and I think it would be a better fit for Flix than herbivory.
They walk on their wings and feet like a pterosaur, just because it looks cool. Plus it makes them look a bit less like a different font of bird.
Their wings look more bat-like here. Ideally, they wouldn't; I'm just not good at replicating the canon wings. I wanted to emulate comet moth wings (because comet, like space) but I don't think I pulled it off. I could settle for feathered wings in a Flix redesign, but I have beef with feathered wings in spec evo because they're so unlikely to occur since they're such a derived structure. But CoS is already so unbelievably unrealistic that it's not even spec evo anymore, so whatever lol
The hindlegs are syndactyl, so they can perch! Their toes are also webbed, so they can actually swim! And maybe paddle around on the surface like ducks (wait that's cute... I might animate that).
They have claws on their wings. These would help with perching and perhaps climbing (like if they needed to climb a cliff instead of flying or something; maybe for stealth.
The back wings are attached to the hindleg. That's the case in the canon design too, but I bring it up here for clarity and also to add that I (and I assume the original designer) based this on microraptor's hind-wings. Microraptor beloved <333
I couldn't add them here as they'd obscure stuff even more, but I think there would be a couple more comet-shaped shards down the back. They would be floating particles, like the orbs that they keep adding to new creatures.
I gave them little star spots to make the black areas look like a night sky!
You can't see it due to the hind wings covering it, but the tail has the same gradient as the little danglies on the wings.
I just realised this version makes them look a bit like the Flickaflie, which people seem to already mix up with this guy anyway, so uh, oops. I think they're different enough.
If you have any thoughts to add to this, leave a comment! I'd love to discuss and I'm fine with criticism of this design. I might make a second rendition if I become unsatisfied enough with this. :3
I'm a bit worried about the CoS redesign polls...
They're going to be redesigning two of my favourite creatures (Flixlit and Nymphasuchus), as well as some others, and at least one of the poll options for each would make me hate them
Like I would cry for ages if they made Nymphasuchus a tank because I love how it looks like a crocodile-ferret. Nymph is perfect, he doesn't need a redesign :( I hope that when they do redesign it, they keep its cute toes. I love Nymph
And Flixlit is my main (by far; it's my favourite creature in the whole game) so any redesign that changes it would be a loss in my book. Thankfully the poll currently looks like this
So I doubt it will change much in the redesign. I just don't want the other options because spiky Flixlit would look dumb tbh
Still, I'm slightly worried bc sometimes the redesigns suck. I despise the Pero redesign SO much. They made a fine creature so ugly. They made my sweetie look like a demon. And everyone was mad about Kendyll's bad initial redesign (tbh I didn't mind that one and I actually think the new redesign looks out of place compared to the other creatures) so yeah.
I know this isn't remotely what I normally post, but I need to ramble about this because I'm anxious now. Here's hoping they don't mess up with the Flix & Nymph redesigns.
Hi probably like nobody here plays CoS but anyways i drew cool snake that released yesterday👍👍
(Reblogs highly appreciated!!)
𝙸𝚗𝚝𝚛𝚘𝚍𝚞𝚌𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 𝙿𝚘𝚜𝚝!
I'm Cin. This is my Creatures of Sonaria side blog!
Here I'll be posting anything related to the game; fan art, summaries of game updates (for those who don't have Discord), reviews, tips, and so on. I don't have a posting schedule but I want to try to post once per week -- we'll see if I manage to do that.
My main (and currently only) CoS OC is a Flixlit named Comet! She doesn't have a ref yet but I'll update this post with it once I do!
I tag all of my posts to make my page easier to browse. Art is tagged as #cin draws (same tag as my main account).
Some information, or I guess trivia, about me: I'm Australian, and I love speculative evolution, so I like to think of CoS through a spec-evo lens. Besides this, I'm also interested in Psych (the TV show), Will Wood (the musician), and my non-CoS OCs.
Links to other socials and stuff are under the cut!
