Creatures are non-playable, generally non-humanoid beings found in every Biome in the world. There are different types of Creatures each with its unique animation and sounds. Some Creatures are mountable and behave similar to Vehicles, while others will simply follow the Player like a pet, or ignore the Player completely. Some Creatures can attack while being ridden by pressing the attack key, and riding most Creatures over small destructable Objects will cause the Object to be destroyed.
Unlocking Creatures
Most Creatures can be discovered immediately upon finding them in the world. Many, however, require some Item that the player must give them before they will be unlocked. Such a Creature will pose a thought bubble above its head showing what Item it wants. The player must have the Item in their inventory, at which point, interacting with the Creature will automatically trade the item. The item will be permanently removed from the player's inventory, and the creature will spawn some Studs for successful Quest completion, and become unlocked to Discover with the Discovery Tool.
Once unlocked, the Player is then able to purchase the Creature either using the Discovery Tool again on the Creature, or using the Discovery Menu. Once purchased any creature can be spawned any number of times for free, placed in the world or even launched high into the air! A few Creatures can be spawned by certain Characters, but can then be unlocked or discovered as normal.
It is not necessary to unlock or discover a rideable creature before it can be mounted. Even aggressive creatures like the Bear and Shark can be ridden without subduing them first.
Creature Types
Aerial
These creatures can fly, which can make it exceptionally difficult to unlock them, as they can only be interacted with for their Quests when they are on the ground. Dragons are a special case, as they will not even appear in the game until a long series of Quests have been completed.
