Swampshark

Swampsharks are large aquatic predators that live in the swamps south of the Valley of Mines. Alkimia Interactive has publicly released concept art of the swampshark as part of its pre-release development updates for Gothic 1 Remake.

Role in Quests

Swampshark teeth are used as an ingredient for the Ulu-Mulu, one of the Gothic series' most iconic late-chapter quest items. Hunting a swampshark is therefore not optional busywork; it is part of the campaign's major set pieces, and the Hero has to return to the viscous swamp terrain to get one.

Danger

Swampsharks are dangerous because the terrain works against the Hero. The swamp slows movement, and the shark's strike range is set up to punish anyone trying to stand their ground in bad footing.
