Slimeology

Ringtail slimes are nothing but trouble. Theft under cover of darkness is their favorite hobby and they delight in getting away with as much as possible before the sun rises. The reason for this exclusively moonlit crime spree is that ringtails have a peculiar condition that transforms them into stone when exposed to sunlight. And while we're not saying this is an ancient curse, they're definitely the type of slime who would have an ancient curse if that was a thing.

Risks

Once a Ringtail slime starts eating, it will never stop. Just one Ringtail slime is capable of wiping out an entire farm if given the time. And they offer nothing in return because a Ringtail slime stops producing plorts when it would otherwise be full. If you plan on ranching these ravenous rascals, keep an eye out for a mischievous expression to know when to avoid feeding them...

Plortonomics

Materials developed from Ringtail plorts are extremely resilient, actually hardening in the face of UV rays. And similar to pink plorts, Ringtail plorts are very malleable, allowing a clever person to craft a wide range of things that can stand the test of time. Such things could be something as essential as sturdy shelter on a faraway island, or as simple as a collection of family photos that could survive a trek across the scorching desert...

Properties

  • In the light, this slime turns in to a Stone Statue that you can pick up similarly to a Crate or Toy, but while in the dark this slime will turn back to normal.
  • Similar to other slimes affected by sunlight, a Solar Shield upgrade on a corral will prevent this behavior.
  • This slime will also eat even when it is not hungry, consuming the food without creating a plort in return.
  • This slime can also pounce.
