Cupuere/Legacy

== Description ==
=== Behavior ===
* Cupere are herd animals, very rarely straying from their group. However, they are friendly enough that they do not mind a new Cupere joining their herd.
** During summer months, Cupere herds congregate in an unknown location and change their herd members.
* Cupere are born soft and velvety, but as they age they slowly become harder and darken in color, becoming less and less of a target for predators. The oldest known Cupere, while hard as a rock, was tiny.
== Appearance ==
The Cupere is a crêpe version of an amalgamation between a whale, several types of fish, as well as dinocarids-like swimming flaps. As such, the Cupere possess bilateral symmetry, a head and a toothless mouth at the front of their bodies and their hydrodynamic mysticeti body supports 3 pairs of primary swimming flaps, which the Cupere uses to propell itself across the seas though a continuous flipper and vertical motion.
=== Males ===
Males have chocolate antennae extending from above their eyes.
=== Females ===
Females have no additional features.
== Abilities ==
== Gameplay ==
=== Pros ===
Cupere has a huge health pool, and can take tons of hits, even more with the addition of the Sticky Fur ability. Its hitbox is relatively small, and it's quick in the water.
=== Cons ===
Cupere is a healer, and is unable to fight back. Its also an aquatic, and cannot go on land without taking continuous damage and being incredibly slow.
== Carry-able Creatures ==
