Boomerang (Subnautica): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 20:21, 19 January 2016

Template:Infobox:Fauna Flora The Boomerang is a passive life form belonging to the fauna category.

It is usually found in the nearest biomes around Safe Shallows, and is catchable and cookable. The Boomerang appears to be diurnal.

In large open areas like Grassy Plateaus or Sparse Reef, they tend to form into shoals.

Appearance

The Boomerang is a small fish with a bright, yellow-green center and dark green stripes along the sides and edges of its body. It is horizontally symmetrical, and, as its name suggests, is shaped like a boomerang.

Both of the Boomerang's top and bottom protrudes two long, slim pointed fins extending diagonally backwards from its face. The tips of these fins give off a cyan bioluminescent glow. It has four eyes, with two on each side of its head, one above its mouth and one below it.

The Boomerang's mouth is fat-lipped and grubby, and is full of dull, blunt teeth likely being used for grinding coral or algae.

Behavior

The Boomerang sways side-to-side as it swims. If approached by the player, it will eventually flee.

It is a fast swimmer, and is usually found to be very active during the day.
