I mean, I personally didn't design this beast; but from the gameplay footage I've seen of Dauntless, I would say that it does take a few notes from both Nargagcuga and Gore Magala.  When enraged it also has a trail effect coming from it's eyes.

Gosh, I remember when pretty much no one knew what this guy looked like. And when I first saw the shrowd I was like . Also, amazing job

Thanks!  At first I relied on the Dauntless Wiki to provide references, but there's currently no pictures for a majority of the behemoths so I assumed there wasn't any footage of them yet.  To my delight though, there was tons of gameplay footage on Youtube, and I finally got a good look at the Shrowd.  Seems to me that it's considered the "big bad" of Dauntless, and he certainly looks the part.

Yeah he does. And supposedly, he's only mid game for the full version of the game

This looks fantastic!
At first, I thought that it was not actually a wing but a hyper-evolved raptorial finger with countless feather-like blades on it... If you don’t mind, I’d like to draw how I first saw it

Thanks!  The Shrowd (alongside it's relations the Shrike and Skraev) have very flexible...well, I suppose they're wing digits.

And yeah, feel free!

Would be interesting to see how the skeleton and musculature would cope with such a physique that allows for both quadrupedal gait as well as flight. But then again, it is a fantasy game and stuff like that is not that important... I just tend to think about it a lot.

Sweet, thanks!

King-Edmarka In reply to juniorWoodchuck [2017-10-23 03:00:21 +0000 UTC]

Very true, the way I view it's overall physique is something like a stretched out bear or wolverine or something along those lines.  Haven't gotten to play the game and encounter it myself, so I'm going off of nothing but gameplay footage.  The Wing feathers aren't particularly organized like those of a bird or other theropod; there's no clear Primaries or Secondaries, but like you said, it's a fantasy game.  Still, it's fun to speculate!

Yeah, I reckon that’s a pretty accurate comparison...
In the game, do these wing- fingers allow for powered flight or is it more of a jump-assist with subsequent gliding?

King-Edmarka In reply to juniorWoodchuck [2017-10-26 22:08:05 +0000 UTC]

I haven't seen it use any kind of powered flight, but plenty of jump assistance and gliding.
