TRP is a post-Great War AU RWBY RP set in Mistral City and Haven Academy with no canons, no rank claims, no maidens, and no god interference. We offer a progression system and site-wide events that change the setting based on player actions.
The Boarbatusk is a quadruped with many features associated with a real-world boar, including cloven-feet, a line of hair sprouting from its spine, snub snout, and tusks.
The monster has four eyes and a bone-like mask that seems to be strapped to its face by a black vein-like organic tether. It has a series of plates along its back and on its thighs, and two extra sets of tusks, including two large curving tusks. However, their underside is comparatively under-protected and vulnerable, with little to no body armor or shielding.
Behavior:
Boarbatusks are extremely fast and strong, using charging as their main means of attack. Their armor protects their upper halves, and they use their massive curved tusks as ramming weapons or to hassle/grab onto enemies. If needed, they will curl up into balls (similarly to an armadillo), and spin/roll at incredible speeds at their enemies. Despite this, they seem to be one of the easier Grimm to defeat, being taken down easily by trained Huntsman and with some effort from Huntsmen-in-training and police units.
The monster's upper body is heavily armored. It has demonstrated the ability to withstand stabbing and cutting attacks to its upper body without any apparent injury. Despite heavy armor around its body, its underside has little to no armor and is the Grimm's only apparent weak point. As a result, it is completely defenseless when on its back and is easily dispatched in this position.
First Appearance: Link to thread
Abilities (All abilities ranked G unless otherwise specified):
Boarbatusk
Strength: E Durability: D (Underbelly is G ranked durability)
Other abilities:
D-Roll Out: The boarbatusk has the ability to curl its body into a ball and gain D ranked speed for one post in addition to protecting its underbelly as it rolls towards an opponent. The tremendous speed and strength of the boarbatusk combined also knock any target hit with this attack back approximately ten feet from the sheer force of the impact. Opponents hit with this attack suffer E-ranked damage. Once the creature has completed the attack, it must wait one post before doing it again.
