This is the guide to pets and other critters.

What you need to know about critters
Critters are controlled by the game's artificial intelligence, not to be confused with the AI. Some are friend, and some are foe - some are help, some are hindrance.
Critters are divided into six categories:
Pets
Robots
Fauna
A mixture of domesticated and wild animals. Friendly, at least until provoked.
Beasts
The natives of the planet who aren't so happy to see you.
Name | Description | |
---|---|---|
Bat Swarm | A horde of bloodsucking bats looking for their next meal. | |
Bear | A variety of dangerous bears wander the wilderness, typically black or brown. | |
Diyaab | A small pack animal. Although omnivorous, it will hunt meat on occasion. | |
Frog | A large carnivorous frog. The fat thing will gladly devour anything. | |
Hippo | A large water-dwelling creature known for being viciously territorial. | |
Jelly Blob | A parasitic creature that gorges intensely on whatever falls into the dark recesses. | |
Primal Lizard | A hungry, green lizard that roams around and often competes with larger creatures for prey. | |
Primal Render | A terror on two legs that even hunters dread. You'd best run, fast. | |
Panther | A formidable feline of great size and strength. One of the greatest predators. | |
Mimic | This cowardly creature lurks in the guise of common objects. Who knows what it really looks like. | |
Samak | A tough, armoured predator accustomed to hiding and ambushing in desolate terrain. | |
Shantak | A piglike creature with a bright iridiscent mane. Elegant, but predatory. | |
Nightmare Stalker | A monstrosity that can not be seen until it is too late for many, it can rend and tear any unprepared colonist or even a slightly well prepared prospector. Just before it strikes, it mimics the voices of people, the cause behind it is unknown, but perhaps to draw in more... That or it's a sadistic fucking animal. | |
Sargoyle | A large flying creature native to the planet, with leathery wings and a toothy maw. Though blind, this creature uses sonar, making it highly skilled at fighting in the dark. | |
Wurm | A plasma eating wurm capable of firing volatile globs of electric acid if they spot prey. Hated by lonestar miners as many do not know it is there until they are hit by acid. This is a fully grown wurm, bulging sacks of acidic goo hang from its jaw. | |
Wurm Youngling | A plasma eating wurm capable of firing volatile globs of electric acid if they spot prey. Hated by lonestar miners as many do not know it is there until they are hit by acid. This is merely a youngling, they are not as dangerous as adults. | |
Carp spawn | Carp Spawn | A ferocious, fang-bearing creature that resembles a fish. This one is quite young. |
Space Carp | A ferocious, fang-bearing creature that resembles a fish. | |
Carp shark | Carp Shark | A bigger, angrier cousin of the space carp. |
Great White | Great White Carp | A very rare breed of carp and a very aggressive one. |
Hell pig | The venerable evolution of a tengolo charger, morphing into a violent and destructive beast hostile to all but its own berserk kind. Hell pigs represent the end of a charger's life as upon reaching a certain age they undergo a metamorphosis that turns them into bloodthirsty monsters who rampage until slain. | |
Slepnir | The venerable evolution of a tengolo charger, morphing into a violent and destructive beast hostile to all but its own berserk kind. The slepnir, unlike its other berserk kin, only attacks those who draw close, but once its ire is drawn it becomes a relentless pursuer. More disturbingly, upon closer examination one would note its new coloration is the result of his normally blue-ish hide having sloughed off to expose the reddish-brown muscle beneath. | |
Wendigo | The venerable evolution of a tengolo stalker, morphing into a violent and destructive beast hostile to all but its own berserk kind. The wendigo is a violent transformation that involves much of the flesh and bone of a tengolo painfully and rapidly mutating, driving the creature insane and violent. |
Drones
Some robots aren't so helpful to the average colonist. These haywire creations will test your mettle with their metal.
Abominations
The origins of these creatures are as unpredictable as their behaviour. Tread carefully.
Xenomorphs
Black monstrosities that adapt incredibly well to their environment. If given the chance, they will certainly consume the planet and all other life.
Roaches
Spiders
Allies
