UbiAnomaly Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Alright, so Wormwood, even though he came from the moon, has no perks or anything even related to the recent Return of Them updates. So... why not give him a perk for the sea? Using one living log Wormwood could be able to craft a living oar, which is a small upgrade to the driftwood oar. It could have more speed and durability than the driftwood oar, while not outclassing the Malbatross bill, and I think it could have a nice niche. Maybe it could also do an underwater-y sounding scream when you didn't time a correct row with it 0-0. This would fit well with the rest of his crafting tab's contents, which includes almost completely utility-type crafts (barring of course his healing craft). I even drew up a quick sketch (done in like, 10 minutes. Just a proof of concept): Edit: I also wanted to say that a great unique feature for this oar would be being able to row in any direction from one side of the boat, this way you don't have to walk across your boat to change directions! It makes sense since the oar is alive and could probably move the head of it itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-met Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 what if we go one step further and make this new oar cause the boat to go backwards instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minespatch Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 The special effect of this oar is that it screams everytime you paddle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was gonna say I don't want any sort of living log oars unless they're screaming. Thankfully you realize the necessity of such a feature so you have my full support.

I really like your idea but i disagree with it doing nothing note worthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UbiAnomaly Posted March 16, 2022 Author Share Posted March 16, 2022 Just now, Well-met said: I really like your idea but i disagree with it doing nothing note worthy. it screams! ok but what if you could use it to row in any direction from any side of the boat, since it's alive and could row itself.
