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

It can be found in both the Safe Shallows and the Grassy Plateaus, slowly cruising through the water.

The Gasopod is able to damage the player with a green acidic [1] secretion released from gas pods that the player can use as munition for the Propulsion Cannon.

Appearance

The Gasopod is an elephantine creature with a swollen, nearly spherical body that ends in a rotund tail. Its weight is concentrated mostly in its tail, and its skin is consists of large, leathery scales while the skin on its large, round belly is smooth in texture, and the area around the tail is covered in large, green-yellow boils. The Gasopod has two large eyes with broad, unblinking eyelids and a wrinkled trunk ending in a cylindrical mouth with five holes comprising the mouth, giving it a distinctive gasmask-like face. Two small ear-like fins extend from its neck and it has large, paddle-like flippers that protrude towards its sides. It also features a dorsal fin towards its rear end.

The Gasopod's eyes are of the same color as the warts. The Gasopod's back is of a bluish gray, while the belly is of a light khaki color.

Behavior

The Gasopod is not hostile toward the player and will not attack the player directly. However, if the player or another creature perceived as threatening approaches it carelessly, the Gasopod will detach a few of its own boils, which eventually explode into a cloud of poisonous fluid after a few seconds. The gas will harm the player as well as other life forms in its path. The relatively slow speed of the Gasopod, likely due to its massive size, allows the player to retreat easily if this happens. The Gasopod appears to be cathemeral, being active during the day and the night, though at night he swims lesser.
