  1. OK, ok. I might not be able to update this consistently. But I will make it! It is about the Landela tribe on the first island! This is just the cover of the first part/chapter there should be 4-ish... I don't think the pages will be detailed because it took me about 15 minutes to make those teeth. Another 10 to shade. ANYWAYS my hopes is to make the story of the gods made from the tribe deeper!

  3. I love the Niche music and so far have not grown tired of it with 550 hours and counting ^^ but I totally get why people want to listen to other music while playing. I usually don't tend to notice the music much when I am focused on the game

  5. Dear Drone Engineers, We just released the new Racing Update on the preview branch! We need your help to test the game, report bugs and give us feedback about the new gameplay modes, so we can improve them before it goes live! This testing phase will go on for a few weeks depending on your feedback and how many bugs you'll find Please post your feedback in the discussion forum. Keep in mind that this preview build is still a work in progress, therefore I strongly recommend to back up your savefiles before downloading the preview branch. Here is where you can find the savefiles and logfiles: https://strayfawnstudio.com/community/index.php?/topic/651-please-read-this-before-posting/ Patchnotes New Features New Location: Racing Ring with three different racetracks and highscore lists New drone vs. drone tournaments: Race and Catch New training mode for tournaments New tutorial for autonomous racing Added possibility to sort drones alphabetically or by date Added text field to filter drones Added new steam workshop tag for racing drones New Drone Parts: Proximity Sensor (can detect things inside an area defined by radius and angle) Rng Gate (the rng gate has a configurable probability that the output key is activated) Vtol Thruster (vtol thrusters rotate to a target direction automatically) Afterburner (afterburners are strong thrusters that are only usable at high velocity) Position Tracker (position trackers can be used as target for the directional sensor and the vtol thruster) Reworks: Synchronized logic and sensor parts with the physic simulation Reworked the solar systems to contain less sumo rings and added racing locations. Sumo and racing test-areas are now always accessible from the drone workshop Added individually configurable detection layers for the distance sensor and proximity sensor. Added option for sensors to detect harvestable resources The laser of the distance sensor is now better visible on higher zoom levels Made the distance sensor round, so it can be rotated better Added dynamic mission objectives. For example if only 9 eggs are spawned, the mission will no longer require you to destroy 10, Removed velocity limitation for droneparts Increased upper limit of the speed sensor to 300 m/s as reaction to the unlimited velocity Keypresses are now allowed in sumo and racing test-areas to help testing the logic Importing your own drones from steam will no longer apply the downloaded flag. Changed the tournament statistics and added the option to not upload your drone Replaced some images with videos in the tutorials to make things clearer Added a confirmation dialogue when deleting a drone Bugfixes: Fixed randomly changing planet sizes on galaxymap Fixed decimal input for drone part settings Fixed scrolling of drone descriptions using mousewheel Fixed too high thruster force while playing with low fps Fixed spawn system to avoid unsolvable missions Improved drone workshop performance when working on larger drones Improved loading times of drones with factory parts Misc: Upgraded our engine to Unity 2018.3 Because this update contains new drone parts that are not yet live, the upload of sumo drones into the tournament is disabled. You can still play sumo tournaments, but the drones wont end up in the existing pool. We had to reconfigure almost every aspect of the game due to the engine upgrade, so please also test some planetary missions and things like the weapon workshop and report if anything is not working. Happy testing! Cheers, Stray Fawn Studio Here is how you can get the preview build on steam: – Open your Steam library– Right click on Nimbatus in the Steam library– Select Properties / Beta– Select the Beta tab– Select the Preview branch from the drop down – Restart Steam in case the game does not update automatically

  6. sorry for no updates yesterday but I just didn't feel like it (also there will be no updates on the weekend ever because that's when I go to my dad's house) "wait, do you mean sprucespike is your dad?" redwood asked "y-yes. why? I just want to know where he is. im lost and alone and-" "hes… gone. he died a long time ago by the side of his mate and his children, and im one of his children. that makes us..." "sisters" the wanderer whispered, in shock at the information given to her by redwood. "well, if we're half sisters, I guess I should explain everything to you. im redwood. this is my mate, bloodmoon. we're both from widowclan. what's your name? "well, my names mossshadow. that's what my dad named me before he left me, and my mother died the day after" "before he ran away and joined our clan" bloodmoon added. "he had you and left" "why did he leave? did he ever talk to you about me, redwood?" "no... he always said he was happy to be in widowclan. that he hated his old life. that he never wanted to go back" redwood stopped talking when she saw a tear roll down mossshadow's cheek "you know, if you are truly related to my mate, you can stay with us. we're about to have our first child, and we could do with an extra hand around here" "o-ok then. I dont want to go to widowclan, if it is the place my dad left to stay in" the three new friends found a spot to eventually raise the child and started to clear out grass, making sure that things would be perfect. in the main camp, everything was normal. flamethorn and oakblaze were preparing for their next child, and greatheart was clearing more grass. bloodstripe was digging roots, and knew she would pass in a few days, which didn't upset anybody at all, including herself. she couldn't wait to meet her mate again in the afterlife- and her sister. in cloudmeadow's nest and the area surrounding, everything was also normal. her and maplestar had decided on having one last child, and raincloud was helping hazelbreeze hunt. it seemed quiet all over the island. eerily quiet. in the morning, it seemed just as quiet. except for the nest of course, which was filled with the mewing of a new baby, called stormstripe, who seemed to be just like bloodmoon in his stripes, which were barely visible on his fur, which was the same colour as his siblings. cloudmeadow and maplestar were happy with their children, and the only other thing they would have to do is choose a leader from the three- they all had home island immunity inside them, after all. at the main camp, things were calm too. a cute baby called lilyfoot was born to flamethorn and oakblaze, but the latter of her parents seemed disappointed with his child. "hm. thine child is weaker than any of these weak worms. how did this happen, from both thou godly strengths combined? she is beautiful; yet weak. like a lily, wilting in the winter cold." "well firstly, she got your lean body, and secondly, she didn't get your claw. that's how shes so weak. but I think shes cute. just like a lily." bloodstripe was growing weaker and weaker, and she new that she would pass sooner rather than later. she went to the spot her mate had been buried, and dug a grave beside it. "use this for my body, greatheart" she said. "maybe ill reach him faster that way" greatheart smiled, happy for his mother yet confused: she had always awaited her death since sprucespike died. he knew why, but he also knew that the experiences you could have on earth were better than anything you could experience in the afterlife. by the tree, willowtail was preparing to crack open her first acorn, with the help of her father. she seemed proud that she was only one who could provide acorns for the tribe since hazelmist. it was a success, and she and her sister eat acorns for the day. on the outskirts, redwood was about to have her first child. all three were busy: bloodmoon clearing the area, mossshadow gathering food, and redwood building a nest, trying to bring all of raincloud's techniques to mind. they all went to sleep, and in the morning everyone was introduced to berrypelt, they newest baby. he had gorgeous pink fur and handsome green eyes, and a very spiky body to boot. his parents were proud of him; and seemed content with this family of four (correction: im content because he has A immunity)

  9. im playing niche right now with the equillinox soundtrack in the background because lets be real here the niche soundtrack is nice n' all but the same song over and over again will eventually make you go crazy and I would be insane by now if I had the normal niche song on for the 327 hours ive played this game

  10. Speaking of drone swarms: I think I have modelled the behaviour of a band of children following their leader. Hey! No pushing! And in rows! Much better. And they even are eager to hear the leader's speech, seeing as how they are unable to stand still. I have fallen in love with this game all over again, I believe.

  15. So.... I wanted to do something weird, and I hadn't found anything like this in the forums or other google searches that encouraged bad breeding... I'm always caught up trying to make perfect genes, and so playing this was actually really refreshing. I had the change to stream this last Friday during the promotional sale on Steam, and I can't remember laughing so much. I hope you guys enjoy this, and I'd love to see your love-children or any suggestions you guys might have in regards to changing the rules or adding clauses etc to them. ^^ ❤️ Kat Kat Tails presents: The Bad Boy Challenge For Niche: A Genetics Survival Game Made specifically for Kat Tail’s first official Niche Steam Stream, the Bad Boy Challenge is meant to be humorous but still challenging for both n00b and pro players. Focused on working around the (usually)useless traits that Rogue Males bring into the mix. In the past, these Bad Boys have been pests, crimes against the genepool, and precious females needed to be protected from them. But no longer! Rebel against your better instincts and get with bad boy Kyle or dangerous Keith, Fabian the rake, and more unforgettable one-night stands! Your parents will never approve of these summer flings, but it just makes the romance all the sweeter. /endcringe Enjoy the hilarity and see what amazing creatures you could create when whirlwind romances take over your nichelings and genetics alike. Rules: 1. If a rogue male enters your territory at least one female must find him irresistible and breed with him. 2. The more aesthetically pleasing your nicheling is (subject to each person playing), the more likely they are predisposed to seeking out a rogue male and to breed with them. 3. If a rogue male is present, no other males may be bred with. 4. Because of rule 3, males under your control may kill rogues in order to win a chance at breeding, but you are not allowed to move your females before your males if you are trying to do so. 5. Males who land the KILLING BLOW on Rogues can be marked and deemed as an even “Badder-Boy”, able to breed with females even if there is a rogue in the territory. 6. If you have a female that is pregnant with a rogue male’s baby, then you do not have to breed another female with them this turn. That being said, the female must have her baby the following day or as soon as you are able to build a nest. No “holding it in”. 7. Since friendly bearyenas are a rarity they can be mated with even if a rogue is present. 8. If there are no rogue males present, you must seek out a tree stump for your females to call out on or leave the island as quickly as you are able. (Rogues do not usually appear on easy islands or breeding islands) 9. For added difficulty, start your game in a hard island or a killer island. Whale Island is also acceptable as the Rogue males tend to appear more frequently there. . ***As a side note, I’ve scoured the internet for anything similar and haven’t seen any like this, so if you could, I would appreciate credit as well as a link to my YouTube channel. Happy gaming! (this is also available in DOCx format if for some reason you need it????) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn1pvJK0qHwfz35nWQ736pg?

  16. so ive seen people making "nichesonas" so im gonna make one. the obvious ones I can think of are: blue eyes (I have blue eyes, sometimes light blue, sometimes dark blue. its weird.) some sort of yellow in there (my favourite colour) so I did some thinking, and this is what I've got: here I am! ill explain everything: round ears because I just liked them lol antennae because I am really smart (like, the smartest in my year group. yeah im one of those nerds who never studies but ends up with the best scores. its weird) and they just seem to be quite associated with like, wisdom n' stuff? saber tooth fangs because I have really big canines and my teeth are just deformed af (im getting braces when I turn 13 in june and I think theyre just gonna randomly take some out and hope then the braces will put them all in line properly) honestly I think the derp snout would make more sense for my mouth lmao I already explained blue eyes and yellow fur, but I just like the panda mask and the white pattern big body cause im fat tailfin because I like beaches and stuff (I used to love swimming but not really anymore) and when I was little I loved mermaids. and I live like right on the coast so yeah recessive shortsighted because somehow against all odds I have perfect eyes (like seriously, both my parents have bad eyesight) nimble finger cause you will never spot me sitting still. I will always be fiddling with my hands and it even annoys me mammut foot because for some reason when I walk it sounds like i stomp angrily everywhere immunity gc because that's my initials

  17. Well, the other day Aetherskye gave me a really cool idea. Basically, in this challenge you have to make a nicheling that resembles the Diablo Cojuelo from the dominican carnival as much as possible. You could also try to make one that looks like The carnival's lechón. Also, because valentine's day is close too, you will earn extra points if you make a lechón /diablo cojuelo, that also embodies the spirit of valentine's day! The winner will be personally congratulated by the great dodomingo himself! To participate in this contest/challenge, post a pictures of your contestant here before February 10th. The winner will be chosen in a poll afterwards!

  24. I guess that's where it ends. One tribe evolved the poison fangs and digging paw. (Roots are so plentiful that they don't need to smell.) Some purrsnouts. Medium to big body with some heat body. I'd remove it, but it was needed for the next island. The other is mostly jet black fur, medium body+ tail. Double bearyena claw, some poison fangs, some cracker jaws. They hunt balance bears and bunills, but also crack nuts I'll be leaving you wirh the most boring playthrough I have ever seen or done.

  25. And this particularly bright bearyena has chosen to appear before the strongest nicheling. Yeah. Screw that one pawed albino over there. That claw looks so inviting! About to lose Dukkir. He's kind of everyone's dad. Really the end of a long era. Even when these diggers are still around. They're starting to look less and less like the starters. The saga of let's-go-for-the-most-unappealing-creature continues Because these friends look totally harmless. Yes. I'm just too lazy to bother at this point. They can just eat poison berries when the tribe size goes up too much. I'll breed Rera the last time, even if it means no digging heiress. She shouldn't suffer her mother's fate. These guys finally meet. Come to think of it, they're the only unrelated nichelings of the tribe.

  26. These 4 have 6 immunity genes and all desirable recessives. Really need to clean up the pack. The bearyena child was worth the effort. She's so beautiful. (And has two novel immunities) These guys might be meek, but strong enough to swarm. Scary looking wanderer. Could use her to scout. Found two more healing fruits close by. I guess the purrsnout won't be needed here. Useful in harder cold biome, though.

  27. Sisisi returns from her mission on the last day of her life. That's so heartbreaking. She never got to see her son again or will meet her grandchildren. But double toxic baby! And antennae. Even the frog legged bearyena child has returned.

  29. It seems the nicheling gods have smiled on that Digger, as he found a real catch. Or not. She just ran off. At least this one passed on all good genes to her daughters, purrsnout included. One of them is compatible with the grandson of the first creature with poison fangs. He's an albino with mask. The wanderer returned. Can't run away now, bearyena be damned. Poor Kolala got rogued while I caught the wanderer. She'll just have to stay by the berry bush. Sometimes I regret pairings with one much older nicheling. And the bearyena keeps running from his frog-legged daughter

  30. Oh, no. He got the worst genes possible. (Save for big body) I wouldn't usually keep him, but with a tribe so weak, he can guard the nursery. I'd hate to kill this otherwise decent wanderer, but she has zero cold genes and keeps stealing my food. That's... an interesting looking child. For sure won't lose the digging paw. Another bearyena baby with bad genes. At least they're breedable, if not compatible. I am happy with that. But Dukkir almost lost his father today. Always irrationally amusing when a rogue appears and there are 0 hot singles in the area. "K." *Wanders off*.

  32. flamethorn suddenly leaps away from bloodmoon (whilst he is talking to her, how rude!) to catch a mole, and she succeeds with ease. the tribe is starting to realise how skilled of a hunter she really is. and well done me I just tried to move the camera and skipped the day, so a lot of things just happened. just as they nearly got to the nest nightheart was born in, she passed away suddenly before raincloud could do anything. she runs to her sister's side in tears and tells her the news, and she is in so much shock she doesn't know what to do. she asks to see her, and they go to her remains. maplestar follows, comforting the sisters as he did when cloudmeadow hurt her paw. the news spreads to the tribe, but they all know deep down nightheart will be happy to see her mother and father again, and the day continues on without a lot of mourning. maplestar offers to dig up a grave for her, and the two happily accept, as they place their mother in the grave. bloodstripe is quite distressed because she knows she will pass soon if her sister passed, and goes to her mate to tell her the news. he is happy to know, since he will also pass soon, and he wouldn't want his mate to be left behind without him for too long. they tell their children the news too, and they are quite sad, but know life will continue the next day, sprucespike passes peacefully in the night, leaving bloodstripe quite sad, but she continues with the day. raincloud made her way to her mother's nest in the night, and she settles down peacefully, studying the decorations left by her ancestors. she decides to stay a while longer, and maplestar decides to finally confess to cloudmeadow. she happily accepts to becoming mates, especially since he is the one who confronted her mother so many days ago, and they decide to use the nest raincloud has decorated. however, they cannot make it to the nest in time, and raincloud takes this as an opportunity to decorate the nest even more. redwood digs a grave for her father, and they bury him quietly near the nest. the next day passes quickly for bloodstripe and her children, who are lonely without the other three- who are busy settling down for cloudmeadow's baby. the nests are deteriorating without raincloud, and the tree has been nearly abandoned altogether. the day passes, and a baby boy is born! they call him hazelbreeze after his mane, which reminds all of them of the baby's grandmother, hazelmist. maplestar immediately senses the home island immunity inside of him, and says he could become hazelstar one day in the future. the rest of the day is food gathering, and things seem peaceful on the island. however, when all seemed peaceful, a wandering nicheling called oakblaze announced his presence to the rest of the tribe "weak ones!" he bellows, his claw glinting in the sun shining through the clouds. "I have come to seek the fierce beauty of the fair maiden, lady flamethorn! where art thou, my precious rose?" everyone immediately looked to flamethorn, who was shocked by the sudden appearance of this nicheling and his strange way of speaking, but somewhat intrigued. he was very confident like her, and had a fiery red mane, which she saw as quite handsome. to be continued tomorrow (or maybe today)!! hopefully you like oakblaze, I got pretty creative with him ^v^

  33. its the next day! and so many things have happened. most notably, a gorgeous baby named greatheart has been born to sprucespike and bloodstripe, and that will be their last child. also, cloudmeadow is an adult! her painted markings are as gorgeous as ever. nightheart is pleased, as she knows her daughters have found out what they love to do in life; cloudmeadow paints markings and gathers berries, and raincloud loves building nests to the best of her ability. (oml I caught raincloud mid-blink and she looks like such a mood) flamethorn made it to the tree, and she chats happily with raincloud and the gorgeous cloudmeadow. she starts to worry if this white nicheling may be considered more beautiful than her soon, and her questions are answered when she spots maplestar watching cloudmeadow with a spark of love in his eyes..! nightheart decides that she should take raincloud to the nest she was born in to show her how her mother decorated nests so long ago. the child is exicted beyond belief, and can't wait to learn the nest-decorating methods of the grandmother she nether met but loves so dearly- she even hunts a mole on the way, the same mole widowstar struggled to catch when nightheart was just a baby, still in the nest. bloodmoon chats with his niece, who has just been left behind by raincloud, and maplestar approaches cloudmeadow, talking nervously to her, wondering when he should confess his love to her. see you on the next day!

  34. heres the rest of the day as bloodstripe and sprucespike carry on with the day, they are surprised to see bloodmoon jump out of the grass as they cleared it out. "hey there! nice to see you! aww, and the baby is so cute! what did you call her, the beautiful little one?" "hi! nice to see you again! where have you been? we called her flamethorn, by the way." bloodstripe replied cheerfully, happy to see her brother, but confused about where he has gone for the past few days. "oh, you know. I went out hunting, and when I went to come back I saw all the drama happening at the tree and decided to give them some space. I got a bit impatient, so I just came here to see how you were getting along." "ok, that clears stuff up. im pretty sure they're all better around there, though! we might go up there soon to let flamethorn meet her cousins, how about you come?" eventually, the entire family ended up talking with bloodmoon long into the night. flamethorn seemed curious of the visitor, and she was eventually talking with them too. she was very confident the whole time, and they all found her quite entertaining to watch.

  35. were back! considering were only on day 26 and the savefile says ive been playing for about 4 hours, I think this is the longest stretched out playthrough ive ever done lmao. nightheart, staring down at the dead crabbit at her feet begins to accept that things will change, and her priority now needs to change from mourning her lost love to raising her two new babies, and the new leader maplestar is happy to help his older sister. nightheart decides the first order of business to help her children learn is to teach them how to crack acorns. surely if their mother could do it, they could too. cloudmeadow tries to crack one open, but her "nimble finger" begins to hurt and she just cant figure it out- but she doesn't tell her mother, since she thinks that she wouldn't know better than her; she's just a silly child, after all. maybe the pain in her "nimble finger" is normal. nighthear continues to force her to crack the acorns thinking she will improve, which cloudmeadow agrees to, even though she's in pain. maplestar seems concerned about the situation, seeing cloudmeadow's paw getting worse and worse every time she tries to crack something, but decides to wait and see if it will solve itself the new family- bloodstripe, sprucespike and flamethorn- are starting to settle down. they clear out the area more, and discuss what they should do with their new baby. she is the most beautiful of the tribe, and that should mean she would be better off being taught formally with the leader and her cousins, bloodstipe decides. sprucespike seems conflicted: he can spot what is happening with cloudmeadow and nightheart easily, and he doesn't want the same to happen with their child. after some arguments, they decide to keep her where she is to grow up and see what happens- the baby herself hasn't even had a say in the matter, after all. in the morning, maplestar musters up all the courage in him and confronts nightheart, after watching her force cloudmeadow- and now raincloud- to try and crack the acorns. "as the leader, it is my duty to inform you that what you are doing is wrong" he states, trying not to giggle. this is his first formal leader conversation, and he is pretty nervous. "what do you mean? the children are fine. they just need more practise, and they'll get there eventually. raincloud has nearly got it but cloudmeadow seems to be getting worse every day... which is strange, because she's the one with the nimble fingers. im sure they'll be just like their mother soon." nightheart replies, unaware of the situation. "that's what it is, isn't it?" maplestar was serious, not even giggling at the situation like he was before. "what do you mean? what is what?" "you want them to be like hazelmist. you're heartbroken at her lost, and haven't fully grasped shes gone, and youre trying to make your children like her to refill the hole in your heart. you're forcing them to do things you know they can't do, instead of figuring out what they can do and letting them do that" "what do you mean "cant do"? cloudmeadow has nimble fingers. of course she can crack the acorns." "if you actually looked at your daughter instead of looking at her and thinking of hazelmist, you would realize that isn't a nimble finger. that's a crippled paw, and you forcing her to do things with it has made it even worse. look." nightheart, slightly doubting her leader, glanced over at her daughter's paw. it was sore and swollen, and you could see the skin underneath was blood red. she was frozen in shock- she had no idea what she had been doing, and no idea how much she had been hurting cloudmeadow,- with tears in her eyes, she ran to cloudmeadow and explained everything to her, hoping she would forgive her, but knowing that she wouldn't. but, the pale white nicheling answered: "no, im sorry. I was going to tell you, but I doubted myself. if I had told you, you would have realized, and everything would be fine. you just miss hazelmist, I do too, and you saw her as us. you weren't purposely hurting me, were you?" she smiled. nightheart was shocked. how did her daughter forgive her? not only did she forgive her, but she completely understood. she smiled back and replied "no, I didn't. but I need to learn to love you as cloudmeadow, and love raincloud as raincloud." "and I need to learn to tell you when somethings wrong instead of doubting myself." "and, also, we need to find somebody who has learned how to make deformed paws better after evil mothers force their children to crack open acorns because they miss their dead mate, dont we?" nightheart giggled, hoping her daughter wouldn't get offended by the joke. "we might. but I think it just needs some rest." as the two settled down together, mother and daughter, maplestar smiled proudly. he loved his oldest sister, and his nieces, and knew this clan will last centuries. unrelated to story: woAH that was a long one but I wanted to get that scene right instead of skipping stuff,, hopefully you liked it? I made most of the whole "nightheart misses her dead lesbian girlfriend so she pretty much abuses her kid until the leader steps in and solves it" thing up pretty quickly, so there may be some weird bits where the story makes no sense and I may have gone too far into some dark themes and offended some people, so pls tell me if I did because im sort of nervous to post this aahhhhh

  38. Eena gets the Sleeping Sickness. Crackeaver took a lot of damage from being poisoned from when he attacked Oz (before Platyfowl killed him). Stripey Boi dies. The Die from Yay and keir's pairing is still around, but she's making her way to the ocean, destroying a few bushes on the way. Eeena loses her sickness. last children of the pairing Tiger Lily is suicidal and destroys a bunch of thorns and dies. A rogue male appears and impregnates the now-adult Eena. Platyfowl, Eena, and Caryin all settle down by the sea to have their rogue children, who will most likely been cast out to sea (which is why they gave birth next to it...) why hello Platyfowl casually swipes the bearyena just twice before it dies. All the newborn kids will, er, decide to explore the ocean. Keir passes away. The pairing are organized: Queen Cool Mask is paired with Keang; Draco with Caryin, Eena, and Koenil; and Carin with Jureen. Platyfowl would have been a wonderful breeder, but she took a lot of damage from attacking Oz, and is about to die. One of the Dies dies early because of the combination of bleeding from a leech + that red fish kidz

  39. as the next day passes, everyone begins to go back to normal. widowstar, who has already informed everyone he will also pass soon, went to do some hunting. hazelmist and nightheart go back under the tree, and gather enough acorns to feed the tribe. sprucespike hunts with widowstar, comforting him, and bloodstripe wanders off to clear her mind. she finds a nest by the shores, which she quietly giggles at, because she never thought she would have children. just as she goes to carry on exploring, bloodmoon approaches her to tell her the wanderer who she admired so much was called sprucestripe, which immediately made her realise what this nest was trying to tell her. she glances over to sprucestripe, as he comforted her father. she knew what she wanted to do. as the day passes, so does widowstar. maplefang is named maplestar, and he nervously wonders what he should do with the rank of leader. maybe I could just carry on as normal, and everyone will be ok, he thought. although everyone is saddened by the death of the first two nichelings, nightheart and hazelmist decide they should have children before hazelmist passes too. nightheart approaches bloodmoon and asks if he could be the father of their child, and he agrees happily. hazelmist settles down in a nest, and the two anticipate the birth of their child. as the day passes, cloudmeadow is born; a gorgeous white female, who makes nightheart and hazelmist very happy. the tribe distracts themselves from the death of the first two creatures by playing with the baby, and she shyly hides next to her mothers, one of which are preparing for their next child, as she knows she will be passing soon. bloodstripe finally confesses her love to sprucespike, who is shocked that anybody thought that he wasn't an ugly outcast. they bread and settle down in the nest bloodstripe found yesterday. as the new mating pair settled down, hazelmist gave birth to her final child, raincloud, and passed from the pain moments later. nightheart was frozen in despair, and maplestar came to comfort her. "its nice to see some new babies in the tribe, it was getting boring without any youngsters to liven things up around here. im sure cloudmeadow and raincloud will make great additions to our clan." nightheart smiled softly. she was also exited for the birth of her sister's first child.

  40. as the three explorers venture further into the grasses, bloodstripe gathers her first root with the help of nightheart (which bloodstripe is angry about because she thinks she needs nobody's help) and hazelmist spots a rabbil in the grass. she leaps forward, catching it with ease. that is their meal for the day, and nightheart goes to gather roots, hoping to impress this amazing nicheling, who seems to be able to do anything. they spend the rest of the day together- and the two best friends start to realise there may be something else blossoming between them. bloodstripe watches from behind, occasionally taunting her sister about her crush. meanwhile, thornwhisper, widowstar and their new son prepares for the next addition to the family. thornwhisper decides she should build a nest to try and attract the gods, but she is a bit distracted by a crabbit which is wandering around in circles around them. bloodmoon finds this whole ordeal extremely funny, but widowstar is not impressed by this annoying crabbit. the next day, thornwhisper gives birth to a new baby, whom they call maplefang. widowstar looks pleased with his second son, and decides he should be heir, as he can sense the home island immunity inside of him. bloodmoon, however, is very curious about this baby, as he is extremely similar to him; as if he was looking into a mirror. as he sniffs around his brother, the leader and his mate laugh, as they know their final two children will get along very well. on the other side of the island, hazelmist smells a wanderer in the grasses. she chases after him, forcing nightheart and her sister to follow. he emerges infront of widowstar and his children, which alarms him, and he gives the wanderer food, hoping he wont do any harm to his new children. he takes the food and walks off to kill a mole, but doesn't bother introducing himself. bloodstripe is very curious of this seemingly nameless creature, and watches him eagerly, so does bloodmoon. hazelmist and nightheart decide they should tell their parents about their new love. widowstar is happy for them, but thornwhisper looks sadly into her daughter's eyes, knowing that she will pass soon and never see their possible children. the new pair spend the day playing with the babies, who nightheart is overjoyed to finally meet.

  41. ok, I played through the next few things and some very interesting stuff has happened. here it is: widowstar and thornwhisper, realising their daughter will be fine on her own, decide to take her on a scouting mission to the nearby tree. they attempt some hunting, but they are too slow, and too distracted by the nest that has been found. a few days of hunting pass (with varying results *cough* widowstar is still stupid *cough*) and eventually the pair decide it is time to settle down and have a new child, as they do not want nightheart to grow up alone. just as thornwhisper prepares her nest for a child, a wandering creature appears from the grasses, who introduced herself as hazelmist. she noticed nightheart struggling to find roots because of her poison fangs, and offered to help her. thornwhisper seems suspicious, but widowstar glances at her nimble fingers and decides she should be invited in. reluctantly, thornwhisper offers the mole she just caught to her. as nightheart returns from a root gathering expedition, she notices this mysterious female sitting with her parents, happily discussing different things- she introduces herself, and they immediately become friends after they head off to gather the roots nightheart had not noticed before. early the next morning, a new baby lifts her head from the moss surrounding her nest. widowstar and thornwhisper look down at the baby happily, and they name her bloodstripe after her bright red fur and blood red stripes. she seems eager to explore, and nightheart happily offers to wait until bloodstipe is old enough to leave so she can go with her older sister.

  44. Whenever I read “bad boy” I just think of a creature wearing a leather jacket and waltzing down a bad neighborhood, with a hot creature next to him.
