Creature · ICARUS 3.0.26 · Week 248

Tusker

The Tusker's four eyes help them to detect threats at a far greater accuracy than similar earth-like creatures such as the Bison. Capable of fighting off aggressive wildlife, the Tusker's increased stamina and deadly protrusions make it a strong choice for prospectors looking for a companion in the harsh wilderness of Icarus.

Field guide

Found only in the coldest parts of the Terrazone, these creatures were discovered by an ACS scientist while setting up a forward base for weather monitoring. An avid storm chaser, their bravery led them to follow a family of Tuskers deep into the ice, documenting as much as they could before frostbite set in. A portion of the weather station was later converted into a ranch, where these animals are studied and tamed for use on longer prospects.

"Once you get used to the two-sets-of-eyes thing these fellas are actually pretty cute. My latest one even fought off a wolf, I'd like to see a Moa do that!"
