Nocturnal Monster for Alion Lake: Shadowcreeper
Posted: Sat Jun 12, 2021 5:02 am
Okay, so I'm bringing back an old monster: the Shadowcreeper:
As for the new art, here's a Shadowcreeper slicing a Znake:
It's about time I got another nocturnal monster in there.
Here are the voice clips I did for the Shadowcreeper, as I wanted to try something out with him.:

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/ ... oice_2.mp3 (Used upon killing a monster)
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/ ... oice_3.mp3 (Used upon killing a player)
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/ ... oice_4.mp3 (Used upon being killed)
The voice clips were part of something I've thought about: having a monster fight other monsters. That would make things more interesting, though I don't know what the frack a monster's gonna do with loot. I made him about the size of a Great Frog because, let's face it, you're gonna have to keep monsters as small as I'm making them if you wanna have less issues with positioning monsters in-game.
That being said, here's what I got.:
When?: Nighttime Only
HP: 900
Defense: 54
Power: 275 (does 10x damage to monsters)
EXP: 159 (calculated)
Height: 9.1 feet/2.77 meters
Weight: 550 lbs/249.5 kg
Eliapedia Entry: The Shadowcreeper is a creature created by Moonchyllus to deal with Xantis' forces. Moving in the night, the Shadowcreeper serves as an assassin hidden within the shadows. It's bladed arms can cleanly slice through a Znake, making it very effective in dealing with prototypes. The sharpness of their blades is unmatched by anything but obsidian. When ambushing an opponent, the Shadowcreeper strikes fast, often only needing a single stroke to kill its opponent. When it needs food, a Shadowcreeper may slice a Shellshocker or Gal Roach in half and eat whatever meat they had. It does have a sense of honor, preferring to train with Scorpees and Auroch Beetles instead of killing them. Regardless, the Shadowcreeper is one monster you don't want to stand in the way of.
Now, for their drop pool. Given their stats, I would expect a daytime monster with similar stats and similar pre-Moonchyllus status to have a loot value of around $240-270. Since nocturnal mobs only have eight hours per day out of 24, I'll balance that out by doubling that amount. Here goes.
