Nature Beasts

Seedling Fawn β†’ Ancient Grove Stag

Tiny Seedling Fawns grow in the heart of living groves, their antlers budding with leaves and soft light. When they ascend to Ancient Grove Stags, entire forests answer their call, roots and branches shifting to protect them. They stand as living symbols of renewal, restoring allies while punishing any who try to defile nature.

Thorn Cub β†’ Thorn Direbeast

Thorn Cubs wrestle in bramble dens, barely feeling the scratches that would shred lesser creatures. As Thorn Direbeasts, their hides become living thicket armor, covered in jagged, poisoned spines. They excel at punishing melee attackers, damaging any foe reckless enough to strike them directly.

Mossback Turtle β†’ Mossback Guardian

Mossback Turtles carry small ecosystems on their shells, sheltering insects, flowers and fungi. When they become Mossback Guardians, those shells turn into towering, fortified hillsides anchored in ancient magic. They absorb massive amounts of damage and provide steady, regenerative support to any team that stands behind them.

Bloom Caterling β†’ Bloom Queenmoth

Bloom Caterlings feed on enchanted petals, absorbing color and fragrance into their fragile bodies. As Bloom Queenmoths, they unfold radiant wings that scatter pollen infused with healing and toxin alike. Their presence turns the battlefield into a blooming ritual, strengthening allies while choking enemies in floral storms.

Spirit Foxling β†’ Spirit Fox Ascendant

Spirit Foxlings flicker in and out of sight, their paws barely touching the ground as they run. When they ascend, their fur turns to flowing spirit-fire, dancing in emerald and gold. Spirit Fox Ascendants weave between realms, cleansing allies of curses while marking enemies for precise, spirit-infused strikes.

Root Serpent β†’ Rootcoiled Earthwyrm

Root Serpents burrow beneath tree lines, using tangled roots as cover and conduit. As Rootcoiled Earthwyrms, entire root networks twist around their bodies, creating moving labyrinths of bark and stone. They drag enemies underground, disrupt positioning and anchor powerful zone-control abilities across the arena.

Breeze Sprite β†’ Breeze Sylphlord

Breeze Sprites ride on warm winds, singing wordless songs that stir leaves and tall grass. Once they grow into Breeze Sylphlords, they command sweeping currents that reposition allies and scatter enemies. They excel at tempo control, speeding up your team’s actions while slowing or displacing enemy frontlines.

Verdant Lynx β†’ Verdant Bladeclaw

Verdant Lynxes move through undergrowth without sound, their fur patterned like leaves and dappled light. As Bladeclaws, their paws and claws are wrapped in living vine-steel, striking with both physical and spiritual force. They are deadly skirmishers, darting between enemies to apply bleeds, poisons and precise finishing blows.

Petal Finch β†’ Petal Bloomhawk

Petal Finches gather nectar and seeds from the safest corners of Arcano’s forests. When reborn as Petal Bloomhawks, they dive from the canopy trailing showers of razor-sharp petals. They excel at harassing backlines, shredding unprotected casters and support units with relentless airborne strikes.

Stonepaw Cub β†’ Stonepaw Wildlord

Stonepaw Cubs tumble through riverbeds and rocky glades, their paws already unnaturally heavy. As Wildlords, their bodies fuse with ancient stone and living moss, turning them into walking fortresses of earth. They anchor the frontline, soaking damage while empowering allied heals and regeneration around them.

Evolution: Life, Growth & Renewal

Nature evolutions are slow, patient and deeply rooted in Essence. From fragile sprouts to towering guardians, each stage represents a different rhythm of growth β€” and every advancement comes with sacrifice as old forms are returned to the soil.

STAGE I
Egg

A dormant Seed Egg, wrapped in roots and soft moss. Early traits and rarity are woven here, but the creature within is still sleeping, waiting for Essence and time.

STAGE II
Baby

The first sprout of life. Basic healing, poison or support skills appear as the creature takes form. This is where its natural role β€” healer, protector or striker β€” begins to emerge.

STAGE III
Young

Nature magic fully awakens. Stronger regeneration, control effects and faction synergies grow, allowing you to specialize your beast as a core part of your team’s strategy.

STAGE IV
Adult

The fully grown, battle-ready form. Signature abilities unlock and the creature becomes a centerpiece of your Nature strategy β€” ready for ranked battles and future advanced evolutions.

Each evolution consumes Essence and permanently burns the previous form. In the Nature faction, that sacrifice is never wasted β€” every loss becomes fuel for new growth elsewhere in Arcano.
