Notes: (Lanstiril, 2020-11-29)
The variable characteristics (vitality, strength) will be given here for the biggest kitin specimen of each species.
Vitality
| Sub-species | Level | Vitality |
|---|---|---|
| Kizoar | 236 | 5 440 |
| Kipesta | 239 | 5 440 |
| Kipucka | 245 | 5 828 |
| Kirosta | 253 | 5 828 |
| Kinrey | 259 | 9 600 |
| Kipee | 238 | 10 922 |
| Kiban | 227 | 10 922 |
| Kincher | 248 | 14 880 |
| Kidinak | 253 | 16 000 |
| Kizarak | 253 | 
|
The weakest kitins are the flying ones.
Then come the kirostas and kipuckas, whose vitality is modest but which an armoring protects.
The kitin workers enjoy a reinforced vitality, probably necessary to carry out their work.
The kinrey is an elite soldier; moreover it is encountered mainly in Prime Roots, where its vitality is thus worth twice the value given here.
The kincher is well known for his exceptional vitality among other characteristics.
Less known, the kidinak is even more vigorous, and moreover is heavily armored.
And far above the others is the kizarak, which has a similar vitality to those creatures called Bosses.
Strength and special strikes
| Sub-species | Lvl | Strike | Special | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kiban | 236 | 759 | 930 | Blinding effect |
| Kizoar | 236 | 1 012 | 2 024 | Double damages |
| Kipucka | 245 | 1 012 | 2 024 | Double damages |
| Kincher | 248 | 1 012 | 2 124 Electricity | Fast cast |
| Kidinak | 253 | 1 012 | hypnotic gaz | Zone effect, very slow cast (6 s) |
| Kipesta | 239 | 1 054 | 1 596 Fire | Slow cast |
| Kipee | 238 | 1 126 | 1 126 | Long stunning effect |
| Kizarak | 253 | 1 133 | 2 628 | Rooting effect, unknown damage type |
| Kirosta | 253 | 1 435 | 1 435 Poison | Also very weak retentive poison effect |
| Kinrey | 259 | 1 435 | 3 070 Acide | Fast cast |
The kitin soldiers, kirosta and kinrey, stand clearly out of the lot. The other kitins almost all strike with the same strength.
As for the special attack, the most devastating ones are the ones of the kincher and the kinrey: powerful and quick.
Attack pace
| Sub-species | Pace (hits/mn) |
|---|---|
| Kipee | 19 |
| Kiban | 19 |
| Kipucka | 22 |
| Kipucka | 22 |
| Kizoar | 22 |
| Kirosta | 22 |
| Kincher | 22 |
| Kidinak | 31 |
| Kinrey | 31 |
| Kizarak | 31 |
The difference between "worker", "regular" and "elite" kitins is found again clearly here.
However the apparent attack pace has to be weighted with their use of special strikes.
These ones can require some time or on the contrary be very quick.
Moving speed
| Sub-species | 100 m in… | km/h | m/s | h.s. factor |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kidinak | 22 s | 16 | 4,5 | 0,78 |
| Kizarak | 20 s | 18 | 5 | 0,86 |
| Kipee | 20 s | 18 | 5 | 0,86 |
| Kipucka | 17 s | 21 | 5,9 | 1,01 |
| Kinrey | 16 s | 22,5 | 6,25 | 1,07 |
| Kiban | 15 s | 24 | 6,7 | 1,15 |
| Kizoar | 15 s | 24 | 6,7 | 1,15 |
| Kirosta | 15 s | 24 | 6,7 | 1,15 |
| Kincher | 13 s | 27,7 | 7,7 | 1,33 |
| Kipesta | 12 s | 30 | 8,3 | 1,44 |
This table gives the number of seconds required for a kitin to travel 100 m.
For a comparison, a running homin travels 100m in about 17.25s, or only 9s in a frantic run, that cannot been sustained endlessly. On a mektoub mount, it requires approximatively 9s also.
Among the kitis, the kipesta and the kincher are champions.
The workers (kipee, kipucka) don't need to move fast, and the elite kitins, protecting the kitinlairs, don't rely on their speed either.
