Meh's Oracle/Troglodon Tweaks

Description
- Skink Oracle, Feral Troglodon and it's RoR are all now correctly aquatic
- Skink Oracle has been stripped of it's spellcasting
- Skink Oracle no longer fires a secondary missile attack
- Skink Oracle now grants "Scouting" instead of "Increase Mobility"
- Skink Oracle has had several bizarre stolen skills removed from it's skill tree
- Skink Oracle now starts with access to the "Primeval Roar" ability
- "Primeval Roar" skill has been replaced with "Foe Seeker"
- "Swiftness of Itzl" skill has been replaced with "Savage Call" (new skill that lowers the cooldown of Primeval Roar)
- Both the Troglodon and the Oracle rider have been retextured to be more in line with tabletop/lore depictions of the two.

- Calm&NormalTime for his custom edited textures.

Perhaps the spells it casts were CA's way of reflecting the slann bouncing spells through them. Maybe a solution could be making the spells it has in vanilla as bound abilities? Perhaps not the best but just spitballing.

I assume it's because that would be really difficult to implement, if not impossible due to engine limitations. Can't help but wish they figured it out though, it would've been cool if you could select the Oracle and have your Slann's spells pop up

In lore and tabletop both Oracles and Priests are "Arcane Vassals" which means a Slann can bounce spells off of them. This is represented in game via the bound comet spell it can get in it's skill tree. Oracles are however 100% not spellcasters and have no ability to cast magic themselves. This was the case in lore and on TT but for whatever reason not in TW.

Doesnt the oracle cast in lore? Or allow slann to cast through it?

The aquatic trait gives a 20% buff to MA and MD when in shallow water

Large entities suffer no penalties from water. In this case it would have no impact but if there are any small monsters (not sure tbh), it could theoretically help them.

does aquatic have any effect on monsters?

Indeed it is. I added that to their battle personality and it replaces it nice and easy.

Is giving the oracle a missile weapon in battle_entity_stats_tables what got rid of the second spit attack? I've been trying to figure that out.

Because the Skink Oracle is woefully overtuned, unloreful and also goes against the tabletop. This is my first attempt to rectify that.
