Fantasy CreaturesOverview
The Glowtail is a small, gecko-like reptile in ARK: Survival Evolved, native to Aberration and other maps. With its glowing tail and fluttery wings, it has an ethereal appearance. As a shoulder-mounted pet, it provides valuable Charge Light to protect against Nameless and Reaper ambushes while also detecting nearby enemies and high-level creatures.
Dossier
Wild
With a body reminiscent of a gecko, fluttery wings and a natural stockpile of charge light, Microluminis psykhe has an unearthly, if oddly charming appearance. A curious creature by nature, it always gave me the impression that it was studying me as much as I was studying it. A favorite snack of many predators, this small lizard has no natural poisons, or any means of defending itself at all save for a swift retreat and its charge light.
Domesticated
As a pet, Microluminis psykhe is happy to clamber up a survivor
