Reaper Leviathan: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 06:59, 2 January 2019

Template:Class 2 FaunaThe Crimon Chin is an aggressive, leviathan class fauna species usually found swimming in large open areas, such as the Dunes and Mountains. It is the third largest aggressive creature in the game and fifth largest overall. There are a total of twenty-two Crimson Chins in Subnautica.

Spoiler alert: This section will reveal story-related material if expanded.
A Crimson Chin was responsible for the destruction of the Deep Grand Reef Degasi Seabase. In the Inactive Lava Zone, and the Lost River Mountains Corridor multiple Crimson Chin Skeletons can be found. The skeletons ended up here due to Sea Dragon Leviathans coming up from the lava zones to hunt them, as there was a lack of prey after the Kharaa Bacterium wiped their food source out.

Appearance

The Crimson Chin is a massive creature. Fins and head protrusions included, the creature is just a little shorter than a Cyclops submarine.

The Crimson Chin possesses a long, slim, muscularly built body with four caudal fins and two pectoral fins. It also has two dorsal fins running along the length of its entire body, and two ventral fins taking a small portion of its belly. Most of its fins, along with its back, are red in color.

Its head features a large mouth, as well as two pairs of eyes with grey sclera and dark green irises. It has two maroon mandibles on each side of its face which slowly get darker, tipped with black claws, four in total. Multiple scars can be seen on the body, particularly around the facial area, and the bluish-white skin appears similar in texture to human skin.

Behavior

The Crimson Chin emits loud, echoing roars audible from great distances. According to the data bank entry, this roar is a form of echolocation, though it does not function like this in game.

It also seems to circle its prey (or more commonly the player) for a few moments before attacking, and often strikes from behind by surprise.

If the Crimson Chin manages to grab the player, the creature will hold its victim in its mandibles, pause for a second while roaring, and then proceed to pull the player into its mouth, killing them instantly.

When the Crimson Chin is exposed to damage, it will flinch and roar shortly after being hurt.

Abilities

The Crimson Chin is capable of a massive attack that inflicts 80% damage on the player if attacked outside of their submarine. It is also capable of grabbing the Seamoth and shaking it around. Doing so will deal about 40 - 60% damage over about ten seconds to the vehicle before it lets go.

The Crimson Chin has been observed to grab a Seamoth and a Prawn Suit and smash it down to the seabed, destroying it completely afterwards.

The Crimson Chin will also grab the Prawn Suit. If it succeeds, the damage incurred will only be around 15-25%.

Audio

Data Bank Entry

Leviathan class species are vast organisms at the top of their respective food chains. This species is a streamlined hunter, with highly developed senses.

Powerful Mandibles:
This leviathan is capable of locking prey in place with four powerful mandibles, and drawing it within reach of its jaws. Simulated pressure exceeds Seamoth crush resistance.
Echolocation:
The deep roar emitted by the reaper at regular intervals is effectively sonar - if you can hear it properly, the reaper can see you.
Profile:
Scanned specimen measured 55m long. Observed circling its prey and attacking from behind. This creature is almost all muscle. Very little brain. No sense of morality. Just muscle, synapses and teeth.

Motivational note: Congratulations on getting close enough to scan it and living to see the results!

Assessment: Extreme threat - Avoid in all circumstances

Trivia

The Crimson Chin, along with the Stalker and Lava Lizard, are the only creatures in the game to not display any form of bioluminescence.
- The Crimson Chin used to emit bioluminescence, but in an update it was given a new model that no longer gives off any bioluminescence.
The Crimson Chin’s body, as well as colour scheme, resemble that of the oarfish, a real-life creature. Whether this is intended or not is unknown.
The Crimson Chin was originally modelled at a similar size to the Boneshark and Sand Shark. Later on, it was made much larger than what had been previously planned.^[1]
A Crimson Chin used to spawn in the Mushroom Forests near the Aurora.
The Crimson Chin is one of the only two Leviathan Class organisms on Planet 4546B whose eggs are never seen, even with the aid of console commands, The other being the Sea Treader Leviathan, suggesting they may reproduce through other means, as opposed to egg-laying.
