1.Baby Otus

 

Adventurers might find in their travels, in lifeless areas, a single egg with an unusual glow. Taking it carries great risk, although one will never suspect it. From the  egg emerges a small and feeble creature. This bird cannot stop biting everything it sees. Its curiosity is unmatched only by its ferocity when eating - anything smaller than itself is surely a victim.   

 

Targets: dying 

Abilities: damage

 

VE: 300

Attack: 10

Defense: 0

Initiative: 1

 

Needed for upgrade: stored heat: 400; won battles: 5; age: 3;

Upgrade costs: AP: 20; VP: 800; sacrificed vitality: 500; EP: 1

 

2. Large Otus

 

Now grown, the large Otus will aid you in your endeavors. It usually lazies around, not doing much. Underestimating it is, however, folly - its attacks are exceptionally fast and silent killers. With sharp talons and a beak with which it usually plucks the eyes of the prey, the large Otus is a terrible opponent.

 

Targets: dying, weak, random

Abilities: damage

 

VE: 600

Attack: 25

Defense: 2

Initiative: 2

 

Needed for upgrade: stored heat: 4000; won battles: 30; age: 12

Upgrade costs: Ap: 40; VP: 1500; sacrificed vitality: 1000; EP: 2

 

3. Huge Otus

 

The numerous battles in which the Otus has been participating have proven to be more than daily routine. Not only it has perfected its skills, using the sharp talons as sharpened knives, but it has also increased in size to unheard dimensions for a bird. Feeding on the opponent's very soul, the huge apparition that covers the sky only by streching its wings is something to be dreaded. Unfortunately, the element of suprise has dissapeared.

 

Targets: any

Abilities:aimed hit

 

VE:1200

Attack: 50

Defense: 3

Initiative: 3

 

 

Needed for upgrade: stored heat: 8000; won battles: 50; age: 17; + mindpower

Upgrade costs: Ap: 50; VP: 2300; sacrificed vitality: 3000; EP: 4

 

4. Decrepit Otus

 

The once powerful Otus has turned into a decrepit bird. It wasn't age that shrunk it, but rather a strange disease. The Otus now prefers to stay alone as much as possible and completely avoids the sunlight. It covers itself with its huge wings and stares into empitness with its head bowed. And yet, it never seems to be alone. Could it be that the otus is not sick, but is guiding the spirits of the underworld onto their path? 

 

Targets: any

Abilities: damage

 

VE:1400

Attack: 45

Defense: 2

Initiative: 1

 

Special influence: increases the initiative and damage of undead creatures (as far as I know, that only means tormented soul)

 

5. Guardian Otus

Not to burst your bubble but the MD creatures are quite unique or at least have something unique about them (the name for the drachorn for example even if it's actually a dragon). So you can start by changing the name for your crit.

I would suggest taking the permanent VE sacrificing reward off of level 2, and also raising and discovering a few more creatures yourself, then coming back and making some changes. Right now it looks like a Dark Archer with auras.

FYI all stats given at the press are based on an algorithm. You don't CURRENTLY set it

I guess there is still much to learn. Well, research, research, research...
