Rock Lumo

Terralgon

Proposed

The Stone Bearer

A tortoise-and-badger Rock Lumo carrying a layered mineral formation across its back like a moving cliff fragment.

Encounter tierMid
Primary regionStoneplateau
Wild levels4–24
Combat roleHeavy defender, obstacle creator and poise breaker
SPECIES IDENTITY

Visual design and behavior

Broad low body, digging foreclaws, pale face and a shell composed of angular stone plates, mineral veins and small crystal outcrops.

SizeLarge · 1.4–1.7 m at the shoulder
Body planTortoise/badger heavy quadruped
LocomotionSlow walk, short charge, digging turns and braced impacts
TemperamentCalm until approached closely; extremely defensive around mineral beds
PROVISIONAL SPAWNING

Player response: Warns with a shell strike, creates cover and commits to short heavy charges.

WILD COMBAT KIT

Encounter actions

Basic

Stone Bash

Heavy physical forebody strike with high poise damage.

Defense

Bulwark Turn

Rotates the shell toward pressure and gains temporary poise.

Signature

Rock Spire

Raises a stone spire beneath the target area.

Movement

Plate Charge

Short committed charge that breaks light obstacles.

Stonebreak Spire

Activated ground-target eruption

Create a targeted Rock spire that deals Rock damage, high poise damage and can briefly obstruct movement.

Species-wide research branches

  • Larger spire
  • Short line of multiple spires
  • Higher Fracture buildup
  • Longer obstacle duration
  • Shatter command for a delayed burst
HAVEN OPERATIONS

Stone cutting and mineral sorting

ECOLOGY AND DEVELOPMENT

World role

Terralgon slowly expose buried minerals while digging shelter paths. Their abandoned resting basins become resource-rich pockets used by smaller Lumos.

Rare variants

  • Crystal-backed cavern form
  • Mossy mountain form
  • Iron-vein heavy trait
  • Reduced-shell worker form

Implementation notes

  • Use modular shell materials and mineral variants
  • Spire placement must validate terrain and navigation
  • Keep obstacle lifetime limited in multiplayer
  • Telegraph charges early because Boost Step has no invulnerability
