The latest Ascent: Infinite Realm developer diary has been posted, this time aimed to show off some concept art for the more bestial denizens of the game world. You'll get a look at creatures such as the dinosaur-like Xumhorn or the Duncla, a flying fish without eyes or the scaled lion-like Perueta. In addition, readers will meet an NPC named Harras, one of the Starborn.
During the Great Catastrophe, that destroyed Harth meteorites rained down and caused rapid climate change. Numerous species became extinct, but some still survived until the present day by adapting to the unstable environment. Xumhorns have survived the Great Catastrophe by developing a rocky leather skin to survive subsequent earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and falling meteorites. Some scholars argue, that Xumhorns have rocky leather skin because they have been eating minerals due to lacking other prey after the Great Catastrophe, and that is why they can be frequently seen in the mining area, however, this has not been confirmed.
