  1. Not a particularly exciting idea, but I would love to be able to give my nichelings rosettes It would be an allele of the pattern gene. It would add to camouflage in the savannah biome. Different shapes could include rosettes with and without internal spots and elongated rosettes Pictured below, from top to bottom, is a leopard (rosettes without internal spot), a jaguar (rosettes with internal spot) and an ocelot (elongated rosettes)

  2. Curlcoat and Cloverstar have another kit; her name is Volepebble. She's jolly but gentle and quiet, wanting to bring happiness to everyone. She has +1 special defense and -1 defense. An apprentice-aged she-cat appears on clan borders. Her name is Stepmask. She's pretty quirky, but docile and peaceful. She joins Rubyclan and is raised alongside Rubystar and Cloudshine's other kit, Pearhop. She is lax and nonjudgemental, but very hard on herself. She is hardy and often overlooks her own accomplishments, making her rather insecure. She has +1 Special Attack and Defense, but -1 attack and Special defense. A new cat is seen on clan borders when Stepmask and Pearhop are patrolling one day. Her name is Burrowflower. She is serious and calm, but has a nerfarious side. She joins Sapphireclan and becomes the mate of Yarrowhail. Soon after becoming his mate, she has a kit. They call him Stalkivy. He's very careful and stays close to his mother, making him a bit naive. He has +1 Speed and Special Defense, but -2 Special Attack. Meanwhile in Clan Ruby, Rubystar and Cloudshine have another kit. She's called Crysheep. She's Jolly and relaxed, but often "cries wolf" to prank others. She has +1 attack and +2 defense, but -1 in speed, special attack, and special defense. The time for the next gathering has come. Both clans gather together, and things seem to be on pretty good terms.

  3. Rules: No mutations Only give birth in permanests Every nicheling has a two part familyname. They get one part from each parent We start off with Israla Nutclaw and Nuta Rootantler They have their first child, Vannukir Nutantler Their second son, Muddy Nutroot always seems to be forgotten by the rest of the tribe. They find a wanderer called Dukkukir Purrscratch. They raise him as their own. The whole tribe moves to a new island. Korela bigear joins them. Israla and Nuta have Nuta Rootclaw. Korela and Nuta(the first) have Kois Rootear. Israla and Nuta pass away. Then Korela and Vannukir have Kirrota bignut and Nukuku Bigantler. The tribe is starving. Muddy and Vannukir try to fish. Muddy just ends up drowning himself. Some nichelings colloect cactus berries and others rush for old berrybushes. Korela and Dukkukir are desperate to have a child. Korela gives birth to Vanku Bigscratch. Korela and dukkukir mate before he dies. On her last night Korela gives birth to Vanvanta Purrear and Anaana Earscratch. Nuta and Kois grow up. The tribe finds three wanderers. One is a scorpiontail female. The other two are brothers. One of them has platypus beak and the other has crackerjaw. There isn't enough food to invite all of them in them in. They choose Ronu Yellowfisher. Kois and Nuta have Kaivaja Rootear. Kois has one child with him. Mesisi Rootfisher seems like this tribe's last hope. The tribe is down to Mesisi, Vanku and their daughter Anais Scratchfisher. The tribe dies off.

  6. We start with the same bloodline. Our starters are Ismesi Yellowfisher and Nuvan Rootear. They move to a new island and find Meisra Pinkfoot. Ismesi and Nuvan have bad luck. All of their children get eaten by bluebirds and bearyenas. Then Nuvan dies. The tribe is joined by Vanvan Bananabeak. The two females hurry to have children with him. Sadly Ismesi's child with him is sick. Meisra has Dukvan Pinkbanana with Vanvan. Then he starts having children with Dukro. Kukirduk Redroot joins them. Meisra and Dukro have Rokir Pinkfisher. Anareis and Kukirduk have Kukuku Redfoot, Ronukir Rootfoot and Rokir Fisherroot. After her mate dies, she has children with her oldest son. The tribe runs from bearyenas and is joined by Nuvannu Purrberry. He and Anareis have Kois Berryroot. To be continued...

  7. The clans arrive on the new island. Welcome to peaceful meadow. Pikestar and Cloverstar now have the responsibility of distributing the island's territory between the two clans. "We want the Western half," declares Cloverstar firmly. "Perfect, then we will take the east," announces Pikestar. Both Ruby and Sapphire are settling in nicely. However, as Curlcoat begins to get used to life as a Sapphire cat, he realizes that he has developed feelings for his leader, Cloverstar. This inspires a deep anxiety in Curlcoat- what if Cloverstar doesn't return the feelings? Will he be banished? Will he have to go back to Rubyclan? Curlcoat decides that there's only one way to find out. "Cloverstar," calls Curlcoat. Cloverstar's ears perk up, towards Curlcoat. "Yes, Curlcoat?" "I was wondering, since it's just us in the clan.. Have you ever had a mate?" The she cat's eyes move slowly and calmly to his, and she gazes at him as if she has read his mind. "No, Curlcoat. I'm supposing that you wish to be my mate?" "Yes, but... If not, I understa-" "I knew you weren't just interested in my sense of direction when you joined this clan," says Cloverstar. "But that's alright. And yes, I will be your mate." Not long after the island is reached, a new she-cat named Eelbeach enters Sapphire. She is serious and rather tough, yet has a hidden timid side. She has +1 Speed and -1 Attack. Cloverstar has a kit with Curlcoat. His name is Yarrowhail. He's brave and refuses to let any fear show, but when he knows he's off his warrior duties he's very lax. He has +2 Attack and +1 Defense, but a -1 in Speed, Special Attack, and Special Defense. Cloverstar then moves on to her fourth life. Pikestar dies in his sleep peacefully, and Poppyhaven, now Poppystar, takes over Rubyclan for him. Poppystar befriends Rubyfang, He is bold, quirky, and likes to trick others. Poppystar has a dream that Rubyfang is destined to be Rubyclan's next leader. Rubyfang takes over, becoming Graystar because i forgot to revive Poppystar with his age meter. He becomes Rubystar. Conveniently, the next gathering is here. Rubystar introduces himself to Sapphireclan. Rubystar feels jealous as he sees Sapphireclan all together. At least he soon finds Cloudshine. Cloudshine keeps up a facade of seeming independent and bold, but in reality she is rather lonely.

  8. So, I understand the naming system was changed to avoid typing around stuff. But, I loved seeing youtubers or other people just rename random rouges, like bob the crippled rouge male! Or Uncle Bearyena, who never actually got the name but you get it! So can we have that come back? Possible Way It Could Work: (Suggestion from Dingorok) Also.. Here's Bob.

  9. Cloverstar catches an illness from a rogue male passing by. It is a terrible disease, knocking out her remaining lives and killing her. Before her death, however, she mandates that the new leader of Sapphireclan will be Fishfawn. Shortly after Fishstar takes her place as leader, her mother Molerose finds an albino kit nearly drowned in the river. She brings the kit to her daughter. Fishstar has had to learn to be responsible within her clan. She is struck with an omen from Starclan when she sees the kit. "This kit is clearly a sign from Starclan. Water is holy to us, and Cloverstar's mate Curlcoat was an albino cat, not much different from this one." She looks at her father. "I believe that this could be Curlcoat reborn." Therefore, Perchmoon is taken into Sapphireclan. It is ordered that he is not to be told of his past life, for it could make him egotistical. He's a gentle cat, but is sassy, much like his former self. He has +2 Special defense and +1 Special attack, but -1 defense and -1 speed. Perchmoon matures, and he and Fishstar become mates. They have Weedstream. he is gentle but longsuffering, rarely ever complaining. He has +2 Special attack and -1 defense and speed. Rubystar, meanwhile, is the only one left in Rubyclan; the others have died. That is, until he comes across a wanderer male. His name is Tangleparsely. He is jolly and bold, not letting his anxiety show. He has +2 Speed and +1 Attack but -1 Special attack and -2 attack.

  10. Rubystar is on his second life. Cloverstar gets to her fifth. Stalkivy has a kit with Volepebble and they become mates. They have Wilowgaze. He is a quiet, nervous kit with a mild temperament. He has +2 Special attack but -2 Defense. Rubystar, meanwhile, has another kit with Cloudshine, but she dies of old age, leaving Rubystar to raise the kit. His name is Snowlizard. He is quiet when he needs to be, but he loves playing tricks and play-fighting. He has +1 Special attack but -1 Defense. Stalkivy and Volepebble have one more she-kit. her name is Lowcurl. She is quiet and lonely most times. She has +1 Special Attack and Attack but -1 Defense. It is time for the next gathering, but on the way there, Sapphire is attacked! The clan manages to fight the bearyena, but Burrowflower, Volepebble, and Lowcurl are killed in the process. Sapphire shows up to the gathering bloodied and bruised. Rubystar, moved with pity for the clan, speaks softly. "I'm very sorry for what has happened," he says. "Had I warriors to spare I would allow one to come stay on Sapphire camp." "I thank you for your kindness, Rubystar. We will get back in shape eventually, it's just been a low blow." Thankfully, a new she-cat appears on clan borders. her name is Molerose, and she joins Sapphire. She has +1 Attack and defense, but -1 Special attack and special defense. She is very forward and isn't afraid to go after what she wants. Molerose becomes the mate of Willowgaze. They have Fishfawn. She's irresponsible and quirky. She has +1 Attack and Defense, but -2 Special defense. Rubystar moves to his third life.

  17. It could be cool if imported nichelings turned up as wandering nichelings at a random time soon after you import them. I also think a kind of 'plaza' where you can view imported nichelings or save your favourite nichelings to export might be a good way to implement an exchange thing. I'm generally not a fan of content in games requiring you to trade online to unlock, but if it was really easy and accessible I could learn to like player to player exclusive genes.

  18. Using this Steam discussion, I will be attempting to replicate those Nichelings while doing challenges, some made up by me and some by others. To make it harder for myself, I will be switching save files each time the desired Nicheling dies. Current Challenge The tribe has a starting limit of four, but they must accept all wanderers, and they up the limit, which is currently six. Current Nicheling Goal Head: Cracker Jaw Eye Color: Green Eyes: Shortsighted Horns: Black/White Antlers Pattern Color: Brown/Brown Body: Water Body Paws: Claw and Claw Hind Legs: Webbed Hind Legs Tail: Swimming Fur: Grey/Black Pattern Type: Mask Story The next day, Lucine has Drita's last child. Drita names her Anna. Before anyone can do much else, Leyla and Ebrahim mate and hurry over the stepping stones leading to a new island without looking back. They find themselves on a huge, sprawling island. Leyla makes a nest, hoping that she is pregnant, while Ebrahim clears out the grass covering his mate before running away from under the coconut tree. Leyla is quite surprised when she wakes up the next morning to see little Andrey sleeping peacefully by her side. "I didn't even feel anything..." Leyla thinks. They decide to have another child almost immediately after they find a permanent nest nearby. Leyla wakes up soon after she falls asleep, and Artur is born just before dawn. Leyla agrees with a laugh to Ebrahim's proposal to have as many children as possible, and she gets back in the nest Andrey was born in. She stumbles, and is unable to mate with Ebrahim along with accidentally destroying the nes Andrey decides he wants to crack coconuts for a living, and he carefully picks one up and breaks it open. Leyla successfully mates with Ebrahim and makes a new nest. Well I have to go, sorry for the short update! 😅

  19. We return to the story with Dustnose and Copperstride. They seem to be chilling by the shore, and Dustnose has recently given birth to a new kit of which she has named Shellkit, later to be called Shellsight. The two are relatively close to BrightClan's camp, but they don't mind. Waspstar is watching them from afar, and while he does not mind the two very much, he wishes they had not left the clan for what he sees as no reason. Speaking of BrightClan, one if its cats is sneaking off to hunt with a cat from DarkClan. More importantly, that cat specifically is DarkClan's deputy himself, Rainfur. Whilst the two have only one strength, they hope they can combine it to take down whatever they come across. Let's just hope the stagmoles dont hide away before they can both land a hit. In the distance, Patchstar and her patrol are returning to camp at last. Minnowear, a DarkClan warrior, is helping the shy young cat, who has graduated from Softkit to Softpaw, build up courage to face her clanmates. (Look mom! I got the gender right!) Softpaw takes comfort knowing she's not the only one with a form of horns growing out of her head, although hers are antlers while Minnowear's are rams. Back at BrightClan, Mallowbird has returned to camp and is shocked to hear about the death of his mentor. He's also a bit annoyed that he's going to have to spend full time being a medicine cat from now on. He begrudgingly makes his way over to the collection of plants his mentor had found an announced the "StarClan Contact Place or Whatever," quote Mallowbird, and lays down to meditate at the end of the day. Meanwhile, the rest of BrightClan seperates to go off and do mundane tasks. Kepa reduces everyone's ages and potentially messes up some stuff with the console in the meantime. Wonder why everyone's not dead yet? Age reduction babey! -x- The next day, a predator is found in the thicket surrounding BrightClan's camp. Waspstar and his deputy, Beefang, are able to take it out in three hits with their double claws. Meadowfin collects the meat. In the middle of the previous night, Mallowbird is visited in a dream by his mentor, Robinflight. "Congratulations on becoming the clan's second medicine cat, Mallowbird," Robinflight announces with a warm smile. Mallowbird scoffs. "I never wanted to be a medicine cat, but thanks I guess." Robinflight's tail flicked. "You have a lot of responsibility now, young one. You will have to train an apprentice of your own to succeed you one day, and the weight of the entire clan's health rests on your shoulders. Perhaps even the entire island's." Mallowbird narrowed her (look, another gender fixed!) eyes in annoyance. "Yeah, no need to remind me of my impending doom." Robinflight's face darkened. "Mallowbird, from now on you need to take your job seriously. Being a medicine cat is no joke whether you wanted to be one or not." Mallowbird was about to tune out her mentor's rambling, when a spark of light captured her attention. It was her mentor, but she was being whisked away by a strong wind. Before she completley disappeared, her voice echoed towards her direction. "Beware the one who's crimes cannot be undone." -x- Sorry for the EXTREMLEY FUCKING SHORT UPDATE, but my parents put time limits on my computer ever since I got it, so I only have fifteen minutes left, and I can't create an entire fucking update within fifteen minutes. Nah, that takes around one or two hours. I'll extend the update tomorrow in this same post. Sorry.

To make it harder for myself, I will be switching save files each time the desired Nicheling dies. Current Challenge The tribe has a starting limit of four, but they must accept all wanderers, and they up the limit, which is currently four. Current Nicheling Goal Head: Cracker Jaw Eye Color: Green Eyes: Shortsighted Horns: Black/White Antlers Pattern Color: Brown/Brown Body: Water Body Paws: Claw and Claw Hind Legs: Webbed Hind Legs Tail: Swimming Fur: Grey/Black Pattern Type: Mask Story After running out of food from the berry bush, Drita and Ebrahim begin warily exploring. Many days pass. Ebrahim and Drita have continued exploring, Ebrahim finding a tree where his huge snout can be used. Eventually, while looking around his new-found tree, Ebrahim finds a bright pink wanderer named Lucine. "What's wrong with your fur?" Ebrahim asks, and Lucine sighs. "Don't be so rude. Give her some food, she's obviously hungry," Drita tells his younger brother. He reluctantly does so. Apparently rudeness was not the only reason Drita told Ebrahim to invite her. He finds her quite attractive, and Lucine goes over to meet him. "What happened?" Drita asks, only recieving a sniffle. "Shh, it's okay, you can tell me," Drita murmurs soothingly as Lucine begins weeping. After 5 minutes, she wipes her eyes, and begins explaining. "I came from a tribe that worshiped anything and everything in the sea. It was customary to drown your children, with only the strongest and smartest ones surviving. I was told by a wandering male that could breathe underwater to eat a plant. I could suddenly breathe, and everyone cheered at me. Then leeches were put all over my skin, and that's...why I look like this, and it's why I have a deformed paw. Everyone did. The wandering male helped me get away, and I...I've been running ever since...how can I trust you?" Lucine cries. The brother's eyes soften, and Drita explains his story. "Oh. Well, I guess we are quite similar," Lucine brightens a bit, and they stay together for the rest of the day. This annoys Ebrahim a LOT. The next day they are eagerly talking to each other, and Ebrahim rolls his eyes as he cracks open a nut. Drita smiles widely and goes over to Ebrahim. "What?" Ebrahim huffs. "We've decided that we're going to be mates and have a few children...so you're going to have to get off that nest," Drita explains slowly. Ebrahim groans, and gets off. Drita returns to Lucine's side, and mates with her. She looks off into the distance. "Hm?" Drita asks. "Well...I was thinking since we are getting a bit older, that we should wait a few days to see if I really am pregnant," Lucine says finally. This doesn't make much sense to Drita, but he agrees to wait for 3 days. By then, Lucine would have the child, whether she wanted to or not (if she even had one). On the night right before the 20th day, Lucine's face scrunches up. She nods to Drita, and hops into a nest. At the same time, a Bearyena appears. Ebrahim decides that he will help defeat it, but if he doesn't get enough recognition, he will strike it out on his own. The brothers leap into action, Ebrahim for one final chance, and Drita to protect his mate. Drita gets attacked badly. Although he isn't bleeding, he now only has 2 days left. He deals the final blow to the Bearyena, not letting Ebrahim even attempt to claw at it. Ebrahim takes this as not being recognized and instead ignored, so he leaves the tribe. On his way out, Ebrahim encounters a spotty female wanderer named Leyla. She explained she was forced out of her tribe because they thought she was the Nicheling form of one of their weather goddesses. When asked to make it rain, she couldn't do so. The goddess was banned from being worshiped, and she was forced out. Ebrahim explains his story, and they soon fall in love. She is invited into his new tribe, where they agree that they should get off this island to get away from Ebrahim's brother's family. They begin making their way towards a nearby port. Meanwhile, the first daughter of Drita is born, and they name her Hilargi. Drita asks Lucine to move first before his brother could. "...No. Hilargi is too young, I want to have another child with you, and you will die soon due to your valiant defense of me from that bearyena," Lucine shakes her head. Drita sighs, glances at his brother, and nods. Lucine mates with Drita, and makes another nest. What will happen to Lucine's children? Will Ebrahim and his newly-found mate survive in a possibly dangerous new island? Find out in the next edition of...this!

  23. This playthrough doesn't really have any rules besides that children are only born during the rain. The playthrough is focused on the immortal nicheling Minerva. She is a goddess and therefor unable to die, with perfect and beautiful genetics. (created with console commands of course) All other nichelings will be mortal, and she will travel the world alone until she finds other wanderers. Time takes place in the form of "moons" since days pass so quick but a year would be too long, a moon will be considered a week, but not an in game week of seven days, more a feeling of a week passing for the creatures. But when the counter hits 1000 days, that will count as Minerva's 1000 moons. Her story begins in the heavens. She is Minerva, Daughter of Metis. Metis is the goddess of wisdom and expects her daughter to reflect her traits. When Minerva grows up to become selfish and greedy. As she leans more to becoming a Goddess of warfare instead of a Goddess of wisdom and medicine. Minerva believes only in power and overthrowing the heavens. Her mother refuses to stand for such a thing and casts her to earth for the next thousand moons. Minerva wakes in the morning on solid ground for the first time in her life, though she is not scared. She begins to wander, and for the first thirty days, she is alone. Though she does not age, she is now susceptible to the dangers of earth. She must gather food to survive on, seek shelter where she can, avoid predators that may injure her beyond repair. After thirty days she begins to break down, never has she been alone for so long, how can she possibly survive like this? As if in answer to her woes, in the pouring rain the brush begins to shake, a creature emerges from the grasses. He introduces himself to her, his name is Tanu. He tells her that he felt like the pull of the rain was drawing him to her. Obviously having never seen a goddess before, he was bewitched by her appearance. The two fall in love and by the next rain she gives birth to a child. They name him Fleck. Minerva looks over her tiny child and for the first time since she has been cast to this island she is afraid. No half blood child can hold the powers of immortality. She realizes not only will she outlive her first child, she will outlive every child she births, and every creature she comes across on this earth. Time passes and Minerva teaches Tanu and Fleck about the lives of the Gods, and the rules that are rewarded by the Heavens. Her father is Jupiter, God of Storms, who rewards those who have children in the rain with good fortune and healthy kits. "He is what led you here, that day in the rain" She tells Tanu. "I thought I may never find anyone, that my punishment would be lived miserable and alone. But he answered my cries, and he answered them with you." The next rain comes soon after, and Minerva has another child. A daughter, Chia. With the pelt of her father and the spots of her mother, Chia is noticed by the gods as a true symbol of Minerva's growth, and the rain continues for another day, blessing them with extra food. As the children grow up, each creature falls into a set pattern through the day. Minerva is the hunter, due to her stunning speed, sharp horns, and poisonous fangs she can quickly take down any rabbit or mole. Chia follows behind her and gathers the meat to bring back to Tanu and Fleck, who gather berries and crack open nuts below the Great Oak Tree. Minerva is truly beginning to understand what home is, and her urge to provide food for her family is teaching her the value of life. Time passes and Tanu begins to grow older and weaker. He can barely manage to crack open a nut, simply collecting them and handing them to Fleck to open. Minerva doesn't know how to handle such a thing, no one in the Heavens gets weaker unless they are poisoned. No one in the Heavens ages. and no one, no. one. Dies of old age. Minerva can't handle seeing this mortal creature she has grown to love pass away. She takes off to the far ends of the territory. Killing mole after mole, giving the meat to Chia to take home. "Father passed this morning." Chia says to her, looking her right in the eyes. "He asked for you every day and yet you never came. Fleck grows older now, will you abandon him as well?" Minerva can hardly face her daughter. "I have not lived as long as many of the Gods, and I have never seen death. How am I supposed to learn to face it now, when it is someone I love? The Heavens of the Gods are different than the ones of the Souls, but I know he is there now, healthy and young again. In a thousand moons I will see him again, just as he was. Is that so wrong?" Chia tilts her head to her mother, in a soft voice retorts "you are a coward." and walks away. Within the next few moons, Fleck grows older, his mother never coming back from the far ends of the territory. Chia has been gone for days now, refusing to leave her brothers side. Minerva becomes racked with guilt and builds up the courage to see her son. When she returns, she finds she is too late. Chia greets her with nothing but sad eyes. Minerva sees the gray starting to spread across her daughters muzzle, and the fog starting to grow in her eyes. "I will not leave you" She whispers. With another moon come and gone, Chia reaches her final night. She lays next to her mother, Minerva's Peacock tail covering her from the rain. "Mother" Chia whispers "Promise me you will move on from here, find a new family, build a new life. Do it better. Don't abandon them." A tear falls from Minerva's violet eyes. "My child, I promise you I will never leave one of my own behind again. Those who die will die right by my side. I will comfort them on their walk to the Heavens." Chia sighs in content, letting go of her final breath in peace. Minerva mourns for three full moons beneath the Oak Tree. A rain storm comes and she feels the push from her father, Jupiter, to move on. She listens, traveling though unexplored grasses for many days. One day she stumbles upon a creature in the brush. She first notices the yellow coat, and then the big fluffy fur. Instantly she is reminded of Tanu. The nicheling lifts its head as she approaches. With a snout very different than that of Tanu, and eyes black and night, Minerva finds herself back in reality, realizing this obviously is not her former mate. He excitedly greets her, introducing himself as Wasp, she greets him back. "My, you sure have a unique look going for you there" Minerva lifts her head in shock, never before has she been teased in such a way "I am a Goddess. My pelt is speckled with the stars. My eyes are filled with the universe. Who are you to poke fun, you are named after an insect." He laughs, his eyes bright. "You must either be the most narcissistic creature I've ever met, or absolutely insane." A moon passes and the two fall in love. A different love than the one she experienced with Tanu. Tanu treated her like royalty. He knew she was a Goddess and he treated her as such. With Wasp, things are calmer, mostly due to the fact that he has not for a single second believed she is truly a Goddess. He is playful and kind, and when he tells her he wishes to have children she tells him they can't until it rains. "What? Why would you wait for rain?? Food is plentiful now, the soil is dry and so is the material to make a nest. Rain would soak the ground, wet the leaves and the branches. That's no weather to bring a kit into" Minerva shakes her head. "My father is the God of Storms. Any child born under the rains is guaranteed health and safety. I refuse to have a kit otherwise." Though Wasp thinks these a the ramblings of a crazy nicheling, they do wait until the rain, and with it comes their first child, Honey. "See? A picture of perfect health. Within the next few days the berries will be plentiful, the rabbits will come out to eat, the moles will search for worms, and we shall never go a hungry day." Wasp looks over is mate, who has not aged a day since they first met, and gently whispers "I suppose". They spend the next few days cleaning away the grass and brush. Minerva tries to teach Honey to hunt, but with each bunny he pounces on he simply lets go. Wasp suggests he instead learn to carefully gather the berries off the bushes, which he is able to do at ease. As the land begins to dry Minerva can sense the oncoming rain, she falls pregnant and begins to prepare the nest. On the day of the rain Minerva gives birth to twin girls. Poka and Dotte. They are the first creatures besides her mother that she has ever seen with the poison fangs. Poka's fur is a sleek brown, while Dotte's is similar to her mothers as she is coated in many spots. "They are absolutely beautiful" Wasp mutters in absolute awe of the children. "Yes" Minerva whispers back. "They are the children of the stars." The kits grow enough to go on their first hunt. Minerva believes they have the mark of the Hunters with their ram horns and poison fangs. Once they learn how to become stealthy, no creature will be able to sneak past them. After watching their mother pounce an unsuspecting mole, the two gather around the burrow. "When will it come out again?" Dotte whispers to her sister. "Hush! It'll never come out if you keep talking!" Poka hisses back. Minerva walks up behind the two, purring lightly. "It will never come out if you continue to sit directly in front of it's burrow." The two pull back, anxiously awaiting the next mole in the colony to pop up. The children catch a mole together the next day, and continue to catch more and more until eventually they grow large enough to catch one without each other's help. The territory continues to expand. Honey sits between two berry bushes, watching as they become ripe enough to pick. Poka and Dotte travel along the border, picking off rabbits and moles that catch their eyes. Wasp begins to grow older. On his final day he sits surrounded by his mate and his children. "You really meant what you said to me that day, that you are a Goddess." Minerva nods to him. "I never even thought to believe you until the day the twins were born. I had begun to grow gray in the muzzle and weak in the bones but you looked exactly the same. With each day I allowed myself to believe it more, and now that I lay here on my final night, I know it is true. Please, tell me about the Heavens. Tell me about why you are here." Her children stare at her in utter disbelief, but trusting both their parents, they listen to Minerva eagerly as she tells them her tale. "I was a very different creature then, so very many moons ago. I was one of the youngest Goddesses, but the child of two of the most powerful. I thought I could rule, that power was to be taken not earned. I believed that no mortal lives mattered and I prepared to rain Hell on the Earth to claim it as my own. So my mother, The Goddess of Wisdom, banished me from the Heavens for one thousand moons, of which I have only completed a small percentage of. When I arrived I was cold and bitter. Unwilling to accept it was I who had to change. I spent many days alone, I grew so lonely that I thought I may just lay down and let myself pass to the Heaven of Souls. But that night my father, Jupiter, brought me rain. And with it he brought me a family. I had two other children. I learned the importance of mortal life. I learned the importance of moral death. My first daughter, she made me promise I would move on, I would make a new family and not make the same mistakes as before. I am going to keep that promise. I swear that to you. And I swear once my thousand moons have passed, I will return to visit my family in the Heaven of Souls." They all looked at her in awe. that night Wasp passed, and the children with newfound knowledge were able to grieve but understand that they would be reunited someday. They all continued to hunt and collect. Making the best of their home. One day two Nichelings wander from the brush. The four look at them in absolute shock as the larger one has a large wing protruding from one side of his body. They introduce themselves as Kite and Claw, two friends who have been wandering this island together since they were kits. This is the first time Minerva has met a group of wanderers. She is unsure if they should join them. Before she can turn them away Dotte and Poka yell out at the same time "welcome!" Minerva looks at her children's bright faces and decides that though they are not her family, they can stay. A moon passes and the rain comes again. Dotte has fallen for Claw and Poka has fallen for Kite, and both have fallen pregnant. The day of the rain two kits are born. First comes Dotte's kit, who Minerva sees and instantly begins to weep. Her daughters try to comfort her, confused as to what has upset their mother so. "She looks so much like my first child, Like Chia." Dotte looks at her child and then back to her mother. "Then we will call her CeeCee, in memory of Chia." Within the next few hours Poka's kit is born. All look to him and gasp in amazement. His fur is feathered and white as snow. A beautiful white crown of horns sits atop his head. Two large wings stick out from both sides of his body. Kite whispers, almost to himself, "How...how can he have two wings?" Minerva looks to him. "He is a gift. Jupiter, the God of Storms and the Sky, has gifted the child with the ability to fly like a bird." To be continued (very soon)

  24. "I need you to have a kit with me." "What?" "I'm on my last life, Aldereye," says Pikestar nervously, shifting on his paws. "I need an heir. Please don't feel pressured to, but-" "I don't mind," says Aldereye. "I hold no feelings for you, but I understand your need." However, this changes when Clan Ruby is joined by a male warrior. His name is Shrewseed. He's calm and quiet, but mischievous. He has +1 Special Defense but -1 Attack. Shrewseed is encaptured with Aldereye, and she with him. The two of them become perfect mates for each other. They have Poppyhaven, a fast-paced and jolly cat who doesn't take time to stop and think much. He has +1 Speed, +1 Special defense, and -1 special attack. The gathering is generally just another day of catching up between the clans. Then, Shrewseed and Aldereye have another son, Curlcoat. He is hardy and sassy but is very lonely. He has +1 Special defense and attack, but -1 Speed and special defense. At this next gathering, it is decided that the clans should move. "We can go east or west," says Pikestar. "I say west," contests Cloverstar. "East," argues Pikestar. He looks at Curlcoat and Poppyhaven behind him. "East," says Poppyhaven. "I actually argue West," says Curlcoat. "What?" Pikestar flattens his ears. "She's right." "How dare you? Against your own clan leader!" "She can be my clan leader if she wants to be," says Curlcoat. "Fine," hisses out Pikestar. "But you're joining her." "That was quite the stunt you pulled, Ex-Ruby," says Cloverstar to the snow-white tom. "I thank you for your bravery." Curlcoat feels his face heating up. "O-oh, it's no problem!" On the trip to the new island, there is a long silence from Pikestar before he looks Poppyhaven in the eyes. "Poppyhaven." "Pikestar?" "I want you to be my deputy," announces Pikestar. "You're to be the next leader of Rubyclan. I feel like I can trust you." "It's an honor, sir."

  26. I was trying to find the gene for the runner leg, so I tried putting in "fa" to see if legfast was it. But then, the console suggested something else! Setgene immunitygenefamily I think I may be the first to figure this out! Anyways, here you go people!

  27. Some time ago I saw someone share their save for others to continue, and ever since I've wanted to do the same. So, I give you this file. Lura.nichesave This tribe is called Lura, as you could probably tell. I've started you out with 2 breeding pairs (shown by gem colors), 303 food and 46 nest materials, so you don't die within the first few days (You also might notice the recessive purr snout on all of them, it's from the starter male who had purr snout dominant and recessive--). The goal is to get every non-regrowable grass on the island cleared (maybe except the ones on the tiny islands). Important note: The save is Slot1 in the files, so make sure to backup the save you had there (unless you didn't have one there, of course).
