Gaumaker

Gaumaker

A dryad caste with the unique ability to produce new Gauranlen pods and reproduce the Gauranlen tree along with its symbiote, the dryad queen. To do this, three gaumaker dryads must slowly merge.
In general, dryads are mammal-like creatures that have a symbiotic relationship with the Gauranlen tree. They reproduce together with their tree, which contains a hidden dryad queen. Dryads can morph into various specialized castes.

AnimalDryad

Gaumaker are a caste of Dryads, a type of animal added by the Ideology DLC that produces Gauranlen sprouts to make new Gauranlen trees.

Summary

All dryads, including the gaumaker, are produced by a gauranlen tree. They have no need to eat, are immune to disease events, and have 100% Toxic Resistance, rendering them immune to Toxic fallout and Toxic buildup. Dryads cannot die from blood loss, so in practice will survive virtually any damage that doesn't immediately kill them. Dryads can retreat to a healing pod in order to regenerate wounds; this takes 3 days and heals all permanent injuries and bad conditions.

For the Gaumaker's tree to produce a gaumaker pod, there must be a tile of at least 70% fertility (can't be sand), 2-3 tiles away from the tree. This tile must not have any gauranlan moss or another plant on it. Once formed, the Gaumaker pod will wait for three gaumaker dryads to enter it, after which the pod will gain a 4 day countdown timer. After the countdown is done, a harvestable gauranlen pod will replace it.

Analysis

The Plant Harvest Yield modifier does apply to the harvestable pod, allowing for multiple seeds to potentially be earned from a single gaumaker. Having three gaumaker dryads requires a minimum of 50% tree connectivity.

Version history

• Ideology DLC Release - Added.
• 1.3.3076 - Fix: Dryads are affected by disease incidents. Fix: In desert areas, Gaumaker dryads never form a gaumaker pod.
