This seems new

This article contains information that is updated for the latest Experimental Version of Subnautica. Players using stable mode may find this information inaccurate.

Template:Infobox:Fauna FloraThe Sea Treader is a type of defensive life form belonging to the fauna category. It can be found roaming in the Grand Reef area, as well as on the Sea Treader's Path, forming small herds.

Appearance

The Sea Treader is gigantic in size. Its body consists of a large torso having long, double-jointed back legs. Its front "leg" is in fact the creature's head and mouth, being also segmented and foldable for moving around.

The Sea Treader's head features two pairs of large and small eyes. From its underside, two large feelers protrude and extend upwards, growing close to its head. These feelers run along the entire belly of the creature and end in two bumps at its rear.

The Sea Treader's main body is mostly blue in color, decorated with bright bioluminescent orange patterns.

Behaviour

The Sea Treader walks slowly and passively around its paths, constantly emitting loud, echoy calls. If the player tries to swim in front of it, the creature will attack them by pecking, or swinging its beak, removing 40% of their healthbar.

Sea Treaders often gathers into herds, keeping the smaller ones in the middle of the herd, while the larger ones stay on the outside.

Sea Treaders occasionally stop on their track to either defecate (dropping its poop in the process), or to graze - they will place their beak into the ground and start moving it for awhile to munch on seagrass or other nutrients.

Future plans

The Sea Treader's feces, or "poop" will be used as a fertilizer for flora in future updates.

Trivia

The Sea Treader's feelers visually resemble those of real life squids.
The way Sea Treaders move in herds is similar to that of real life elephants.
It is noteworthy that Sea Treaders spawn on two paths: their own path, and the one located within the Grand Reef.
