Sprinklekit

"My stomach is freezing cold..."

Template:Gootraxian Sprinklekit is a feline ice cream Gootraxian with a cream white body. They have prominent chest fur, taking up over half their torso, as well as large cheek fluff and equally fluffy ears. There are small groups of chocolate rice sprinkles all over its body, mainly on its abdomen.

Their tail is a large scoop of ice cream, with small drips of it falling off, as well as a very large waffle cone on top. Their face is a similar brown color to the rice sprinkles on its body, and it has visible whiskers on its face. It has small patches of light brown on its knees.

Depending on the flavor, Sprinklekit's faces, fur color and rice sprinkles will be a different color.

• Vanilla Sprinklekits have white fur.
• Chocolate Sprinklekits have chocolate brown fur and vanilla rice sprinkles with a chocolate waffle cone. Additionally, their darker patches glow white during Events.
• Strawberry Sprinklekits have light pink fur and rainbow rice sprinkles with a pink strawberry waffle cone.
• Choco-Mint Sprinklekits have mint green fur with chocolate sprinkles, chocolate spots on their face, one glowing eye, and a chocolate waffle cone. Their darker patches always have a mint green glow even outside of Events.
  • Mint Sprinklekits resemble their common counterpart, except they lack the chocolate covered face and have two glowing eyes instead of one.

Abilities

Increased Health (Passive, Mint variants only)

Only applies to the ChocoMint and Mint variants, which have 110 HP instead of the usual 100.

Melted Ice Cream Trail (Passive)

Like its predecessor, ConeKat, it leaves a trail of melted ice cream puddles from wherever it walked, with the puddles spawning faster as its HP lowers. Humans who step on the trail will slow down temporarily, giving the Sprinklekit much more advantage in general and making it extremely dangerous in groups of Gootraxians. All of this can be countered by using a Hazmat Suit.

Hebi Blinding (Passive)

If a Hebi stands in front of a Sprinklekit for long enough during a Blackout, the Hebi will become blind, identical to the functionality of the Emergency Flashlight item.

Water Damage

If a Sprinklekit stands in water, its health will gradually drain due to melting.

Acquirement

Sprinklekit can be obtained by waiting approximately 15 seconds after eating 5 vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, or mint ice cream cones in the Cafeteria, turning them into the flavor of the 5th ice cream cone eaten, or by being infected by another Sprinklekit Gootraxian. Unlike their predecessor, ConeKat, the flavor obtained from infection is not randomized, and instead derives the infector's flavor.

The dialogue for eating the ice cream goes as follows:

• Mmm vanilla/strawberry/chocolate/mint ice cream!

If the player ate a total of 3 ice creams, this dialogue appears:

• My stomach is freezing cold...
• It would be wise to stop eating anymore of these...

If the player ate a total of 5 ice creams, this dialogue appears, repeating every time the player eats more ice creams.

• Ugh.. headache..

Chocolate and Vanilla Sprinklekits and their ice cream cones are exclusive to non-events. Strawberry Sprinklekits and their ice cream cone are exclusive to Power Outage events, but may also be obtained outside of one. Choco-Mint Sprinklekits and their ice cream cone are exclusive to Blackout events.

Players possess a 1/50 (2%) chance of turning into a Mint Sprinklekit when consuming mint ice cream during a Blackout event.

Tips

Please note that most things listed in this section are not objective, and are not the "Correct" way to use them. This section is used to give advice to players who want to learn how to use their tools more efficiently.

• Despite Sprinklekit taking damage in places with water like the Shark Pool, Reception Desk, and Crystal Cave, said damage is minimal and can be ignored as long as you don't stay there for too long.
  • This damage can be mitigated even more by repetitively jumping while going through the water.
• You should prioritize going through narrow paths when being chased, such as doorways and gaps between map props, due to the fact that it is very hard to avoid the ice cream puddles you leave on the ground when there are objects blocking someone's path around them.
  • This does not apply if your opponent is using a Hazmat Suit, as they are immune to your puddles.
• Unlike most other Gootraxians, Survivors can vaguely figure out how much health you have remaining during a Blackout due to the fact that the frequency of your ice cream puddles change depending on your health.
• Unlike the other variants, Mint and Chocomint Sprinklekits have a health boost, having 110 HP, so use this extra HP to your advantage.

Trivia

• Sprinklekit is the replacement of ConeKat since its removal.
  • Although they are similar, Sprinklekits cannot fuse, making it unable to increase its max HP.
• Sprinklekits are the first Gootraxians since Slime Pups and Slime Dragons to have less max health than a standard Gootraxian at its base form.
  • This was changed after the 2024 April Fools Events concluded, increasing Sprinklekit’s max health to 100 as its Vanilla and Strawberry variants.
• Despite only having a vanilla variant in the game at the time of release, the Bestiary photo for the Gootraxian showed a sneak peak of the Strawberry variant before it was added.
  • This makes it the first Gootraxian to have an unreleased variant as its Bestiary photo instead of the original.
  • However, in V3.1R, it now shows correctly its vanilla variant.
• Sprinklekits are based on the real-life Maine Coon cat breed.
• According to the lore, the sprinkles of Sprinklekits infect you, not the ice cream itself.
• The strawberry, chocolate, and mint variants of Sprinklekit appear to have updated clothing textures made, as the outlines for the fluff are different, and the sprinkles are in slightly different locations.
  • Due to this mild clothing difference, vanilla Sprinklekits have slightly more sprinkles than its other variants.
• Developer Xotile's signature can be seen on the bottom of the vanilla variant's torso, in really small writing.
• In VIP servers, using the command :tf [player name] sprinklekit;color=mint will automatically turn you into the rare mint variant, while :tf [player name] sprinklekit;color=chocomint will turn you into the common mint variant.
• It, along with Witchbrew, Saturn and Nightcrawler, are the only gootraxians that didn't get a redesign when V3.1R was released.

Bugs

• Sprinklekits had known 2 bugs regarding their trails:
  • They could sometimes spawn above the character's legs.
  • In the April Fools Events, the trails that spawn had a chance to have the texture of the floor.
• Mint, ChocoMint and Chocolate Sprinklekits' glowing effect on their darker patches appeared to be broken until V3.1R.
• Upon the initial release of Gootraxian Costumes, players would retain their original hair color when becoming a Sprinklekit.
• Currently, vanilla Sprinklekit's ears, fluff, and tail's textures do not load.
  • This trait is shared with the Vanilla Frosted Cake Sprinklekit Costume, no matter what flavor the Sprinklekit itself is.
