The Ampeel's electricity can severely damage a Seamoth.

It then may try to zap or bite the player. The Ampeel will enter an aggressive state when the player approaches it, generating an electrical barrier that surrounds its entire body by using all of its prongs at once. It generates electrical arcs that run along its body, from head to tail. Because of this, not only would it be unlikely for them to generate a current on land, but it also allows them to activate the circuits at will, by generating a slightly larger current to 'kickstart' the system, and make visible arcs of shocking power.Īmpeels swim around passively and frequently re-orientate themselves to swim in another direction. This electrical current is most likely generated by a natural unfinished circuit, and with the addition of water as a means to close the circuit and generate electric arcs from prong to prong. The prongs are a brownish-red in color, green towards the bases with bright white tips, these emit a very bright cyan bioluminescent glow, and are capable of generating electricity. Its mouth has many small teeth.Įach body segment has four prongs situated 90 degrees apart, except its end segment, where there are four prongs extending out posteriorly. It has two turquoise eyes sitting in hollows in the otherwise smooth head. The Ampeel's head segment has six prongs, four being placed in line with the prongs on the body segments, with an additional pair located on either side of the creature's mouth. The body is composed of a head segment, eight body segments, and a tail segment. Their dorsal side is dull green in color, while the underbelly is light tan. Ampeels are huge, serpentine creatures with a segmented body, covered with prongs capable of generating powerful zaps of bio-electricity.
