Archalium/Legacy

: Second Color Palette: 
== Description ==
== Appearance ==
The displays a blend of Eastern dragon characteristics interwoven with elements from various other creatures. Its appearance is adorned with three pairs of avian-like wings. The creature boasts long, elegantly curled antlers and delicate whiskers while shimmering streaks of gold accentuate its torso. A slender, fuzzy tail complements its form, and it moves about gracefully on four dainty legs. Additionally, patches and tufts of fur are scattered around its body, notably at the tail's end, on its chest, and at the juncture where its neck meets the head.
=== Males ===
Males have a single tuft of fur between their shoulder blades, between the first-most pair of wings.
=== Females ===
Females have multiple tufts of fur on their bellies and an extra tuft at the end of their mane.

=== Pros ===
Due to its Cloud Breath ability, the could technically be classified as the first photo-omnivore in the game once it reaches age 66 (when you unlock the Cloud Breath), allowing it to only depend on food to sustain itself and stop dying from hunger (albeit not stopping it entirely if low on health, unlike the Ani). Due to this ability, it could be classified as a fake all-terrain, allowing it to easily live underwater by refilling stamina and thus avoiding drowning (and even allowing the creature to spam the fly button to try to move a bit faster, with caution of course), and even when drowning, its high HP regeneration can allow the creature to survive underwater as well, albeit not nearly as efficiently. The Cloud Breath's ability to give you mud also hides this creature from scent detection, allowing it to remain largely undetected anywhere, especially in places where people don't usually expect a normally-only-flying creature to appear, such as underwater. Additionally, giving you extra stamina does not only stop you from drowning but allows you to stay running and/or flying for far longer.
This breath can also allow you to ignore the effects of bleed without healing it since now bleed damage is raw and not percentile, and this creature has enough HP that using the breath once in a while to restore 1% of current HP is more than enough to heal any damage done and replenish stamina faster. Some breaths can also be resisted this way.
Most breaths also work on the target of the breath, but since this one is an exception, it can be used for confusion, so people try to evade a breath that doesn't cause harm to them.
=== Cons ===
Due to the 's elongated neck, its attack hitbox and damage hitbox are shaped strangely compared to most creatures. While this is not really a con by itself, it makes inexperienced players incapable of hitting efficiently, if at all. The elongated form actually allows several places where most creatures can bite it with impunity and thus make it feel as if this creature is weaker than other Tier 4s, especially since compared with other Tier 4s, it has quite low HP and low weight.
This makes 's juveniles extremely vulnerable since its main strengths are the Cloud Breath and high HP regeneration. Also, due to prejudice, some creatures will target the due to it being a developer creature.
Since Cloud Breath heals a percentage of the current remaining HP, the more hurt the creature is, the less effective it is at healing and countering stats.
Due to its light golden blood, some creatures may just target it to see it bleed and drop a strangely-colored carcass.

== Trivia ==
* Concept by Shegoran from DeviantArt.
** The was "mainly inspired by marble patterns" (quoted by the concept creator).
** It has golden blood. During Naut's leak, it was shown that it was darker than Aereis', an almost brown shade of gold. However, upon release, its blood was temporarily red until it came back to that same shade of gold.
* Modeled and animated by Erythia.
* According to an accidentally posted (and immediately deleted) message which had a list of the creatures releasing in December, the was planned to be released on December 24th 2021, and effectively, it was released at 10 pm EST on 24th December 2021.
