Sootseer
Sootseer is a Dark / Fire Pal in Palworld with 105 base HP, 125 Attack and 90 Defence. Its strongest base skill is Handiwork Lv3, ranking 54 of the 109 Pals with Handiwork suitability.
It was once believed that as the world approached its end, the flame would weaken. Doomsayers would repeatedly rejoice when the flame began to weaken, but in the end, it turned out to be a prank by Sootseer. At least, for now.

Levels are when Sootseer learns each skill naturally. Skills marked Egg are inherited rather than learned, and can be passed on through breeding. Power ranks count every skill with a power value.
Innate passive skills
Sootseer has no innate passive skill.
Every Pal of this species is born with these, on top of any rolled traits.
