Description

Vykathi are an infamous race of carnivorous insects. Their builders go about on all six legs, crushing rock in their powerful jaws and secreting a sticky substance which quickly hardens into stone.

In Depth

Area Information

Vykathi builders and excavators are responsible for the ever changing maze that is The Hive. When a vykathi builder arrives from another room it fills in the tunnel behind it, thereby removing that exit from its destination room. Example:

LOOK: Obvious exits: north,south.

A vykathi builder arrives from the north, filling in the tunnel behind it.

LOOK: Obvious exits: south.

The Vykathi Excavator is the opposite. Instead of sealing tunnels (removing room exits), it creates them.

Skill Caps

Weapons do not move past dabbling at 170 (1/34). (10/19/2020)
Does not teach Tactics at 258 (0/34). (10/19/2020)

APPRAISE CAREFUL info:

With Defenses around 225 the vykathi builder is a relatively easy opponent. It would train quite badly.
With Weapons at 170 (300+ Mastery) the vykathi builder is a creature completely beneath your notice. It would train quite badly.

Special Attacks

NONE.

Special Defenses

Vykathi are immune to physical stuns.
APPRAISE CAREFUL info: The builder appears immune to slicing.

Slice damage tends to do nothing more than scuff the vykathi's carapace.

Attributes

Strength - is rather less than 30
Agility - is rather less than 30
Discipline - is definitely less than 30
Reflex - is rather less than 30
Stamina - is definitely less than 30

Equipment/Loot

NONE.

Body Parts

ARRANGE INFO: The builder cannot be skinned, so you can't arrange it either.

Messaging

Spawn: A vykathi builder lumbers into view.
Entrance: A vykathi builder arrives from the <direction>, filling in the tunnel behind it.
Exit1: A vykathi builder lumbers <direction>.
Death1: A vykathi builder twitches helplessly on the ground for a few moments before it lies still.
Decay: A vykathi excavator decays away.

 ==In Depth==
-When a [[Vykathi Builder]] arrives they will close off the route in which they arrived from, altering the room exits.  The [[Vykathi Excavator]] is the opposite - when they arrive they create a new room exit.

-None
 ===Area Information===
-The Vykathi are an insectoid race that live in an area known as [[The Hive]].  The Hive is a constantly-changing maze so it is advisable that you not stray far from the original room in which you enter.
