Amphibious mounts

[steady stream]

Suppose the devs were to include amphibious mounts in the game at some point, what kinds of creatures would you want?

Frogs and turtles are obvious ones for me. These are my personal top picks.

But what about Hippos or Otters or Beavers or Giant Ducks or Platypuses or Giant Lobsters?

And maybe even more fantastical creatures like Kelpies or Hippocampi?

Oh that would be nice. Flying mounts already help with water. Having a 3 point mount trait that swims plus does something else (so it's not just worse than flying) and I'd be more inclined to do naval battles

I wouldn’t mind a recolored crocodile as an amphibious Mount.

Dire newt.

[sharp parcel]

Don't newts not actually spend that much time in the water as adults? Or am I thinking of salamanders? I know that's what differentiates them

My thought would just be getting a bonus when on water or in swampy terrain. Fly mounts don't get a negative, while amphibious get a stat bonus (probably to speed and defense? To represent them moving more quickly and agiley when in their preferred environment

Afaik, newt is a subtype of salamander which does spend much time in water unlike its closest relatives

That or make them cost 2 trait points instead of 3
