''Monodon monoceros'' is a rare species more commonly known as the narwhal. Narwhals are known to have a single, long horn in the front of their head. Until recently, they have only known to live in the western ocean. They were also 16 narwhals discovered in the northern desert near xMadMonkeyx's town.
Narwhals are a rare species known to have a single, long horn in the front of their head. The original narwhal was built by [[Astrobolt]] in the western ocean. Smaller narwhals have also been built on land near xMadMonkeyx's town in the northern-most desert on the server. In August 2018, most of the narwhals were moved to a new location, the [[Narwhal HQ]], located in the [[TAS]] Sea.

== Discovery ==
== History ==


Narwhals were first discovered on PirateCraft by [[Astrobolt]] in December 2016. They were discovered in the western ocean, approximately 5000 blocks from cove. The first narwhal to be found was recently relocated to the northern ocean.
The first narwhal was built by [[Astrobolt]] when he was in the crew [[Phantom]]. [[Phantom]] was building a large navy which would ultimately be used to dominate in ship battles. [[Astrobolt]] decided to add his own touch to the collection and build the Original [[The Phantom Narwhal|Phantom Narwhal]]. Even though [[Astrobolt]] is no longer in [[Phantom]], (the crew was disbanded and remade several times) the [[The Phantom Narwhal|Phantom Narwhal]] has kept its name




== Feeding Habits ==
== Population ==


As narwhals are very rare, little is known about their feeding habits. The most that can be concluded is that they consume large amounts of coal.
There are currently three active narwhals on the server. (v2, v2.1, and v3 - see [[The Phantom Narwhal|Phantom Narwhal]] for designation details) Two of them (v2 and v2.1) are at the [[Narwhal HQ]] and the other one (v3) is at Battle Bay so that it is ready for battles.


There are also three other narwhals which are all inactive. Two of them (v1 and v1.1) are at the [[Narwhal HQ]]. The other one (another v1.1) is in ruins at Freeport from the events of the First Battle of Freeport.


== Endangerment ==


Narwhals are considered as a highly endangered species on PirateCraft. Until recently, studies have shown that there may be as few as one narwhal on the entire server. Narwhals were discovered in the northern desert as well, prompting the question of their abilities to survive out of water.

Recently, around the fall of 2017, a new breed of narwhals was discovered in the western ocean. This lessened fears that the narwhals might go extinct. So far, three of these new narwhals have been found.

Narwhals have proven to be fearsome warriors in ship battles. After [[Astrobolt]] tamed the first discovered narwhal, he rode it into a ship battle, making [[Astrobolt]] the first player to bring a narwhal to a ship battle. Narwhals are able to carry up to 3 iron cannons, 2 mortars, cargo, and passengers, making them perfect for riding into combat.

Narwhals

A Narwhal Sighting in the Western Ocean
Discovered By: Astrobolt
Date Discovered: December 2016
Habitats: Western Ocean, TAS Sea (Narwhal HQ)

Narwhals are a rare species known to have a single, long horn in the front of their head. The original narwhal was built by Astrobolt in the western ocean. Smaller narwhals have also been built on land near xMadMonkeyx's town in the northern-most desert on the server. In August 2018, most of the narwhals were moved to a new location, the Narwhal HQ, located in the TAS Sea.

History

The first narwhal was built by Astrobolt when he was in the crew Phantom. Phantom was building a large navy which would ultimately be used to dominate in ship battles. Astrobolt decided to add his own touch to the collection and build the Original Phantom Narwhal. Even though Astrobolt is no longer in Phantom, (the crew was disbanded and remade several times) the Phantom Narwhal has kept its name


Population

There are currently three active narwhals on the server. (v2, v2.1, and v3 - see Phantom Narwhal for designation details) Two of them (v2 and v2.1) are at the Narwhal HQ and the other one (v3) is at Battle Bay so that it is ready for battles.

There are also three other narwhals which are all inactive. Two of them (v1 and v1.1) are at the Narwhal HQ. The other one (another v1.1) is in ruins at Freeport from the events of the First Battle of Freeport.


Battles

The Battle on the High Seas

On December 27, 2016, JamminMas hosted the server's first major ship battle. The Phantom Narwhal was with the crew Phantom which Astrobolt was a part of at the time. Unfortunately, poor records were kept of the battle, so few details are available. However, the Phantom Narwhal along with the rest of Phantom proved victorious.

The First Battle of Ship Wreck Isle

Hosted in early 2017 by Browe_, (the exact date was not recorded) this was the first battle at the new Ship Wreck Isle, built by Browe_ and NickyB_123. Similarly to the Battle on the High Seas, the Phantom Narwhal and Phantom won.

The Second Battle of Ship Wreck Isle

Also hosted in early 2017 by Browe_, (the exact date was not recorded) this was the second battle to be held at Ship Wreck Isle. The results were just like the previous two battles, with the Phantom Narwhal and Phantom winning.

The First Battle of Freeport

On October 28, 2017, Astrobolt brought the Phantom Narwhal into battle. It was quickly defeated. Two other narwhals were brought into battle, but they were also defeated.

The Second Battle of Freeport

On November 4, 2017, Astrobolt brought the Phantom Narwhal into battle again. After Astrobolt gave command of it to Nationalistic, (more commonly known as TheSmilingFlea) the Phantom Narwhal defeated the Teletub and won the battle.

The Fourth Battle of Freeport

On November 26, 2017, Astrobolt brought the Phantom Narwhal into battle after missing the last battle. (it was ships only, no subs allowed) Heavy damage was taken in the first few minutes due Maximus_Terragon allowing TNT. Maximus_Terragon quickly stopped the battle to allow time for the Phantom Narwhal to be repaired. Unfortunately, an inadequate amount of time was given and the Phantom Narwhal did not stand a chance when the battle resumed, even though TNT was no longer allowed.

The Eighth Battle of Freeport

On May 26, 2018, exactly since months since the last ship battle that the Phantom Narwhal participated in, Astrobolt returned and ended his boycott on battles organized by Maximus_Terragon. At the end of the battle, four ships, including the Phantom Narwhal, remained. The winner was decided by which ship had the most blocks remaining at the end. The Phantom Narwhal emerged victorious with 93.4% of blocks remaining. This was the last schedule Battle of Freeport.

The First Battle of Battle Bay

On August 18, 2018, Maximus_Terragon hosted the first battle in the newly made Battle Bay. The Phantom Narwhal ultimately finished in second place. Given the new rules and new narwhal version, the results were more than satisfactory while still leaving room to improve.
