My take on the Zebeeste. I'm really proud of this! I'm better at drawing animals from pictures than I am drawing anything else. Unfortunately I couldn't make it digital or color it in, but it's mostly black and white, anyways. It was bigger than I thought it would be so the horns and tail go off the page a bit. I might have misspelled Zebeeste when I wrote it the first time..5 points

So I thought of this challenge as I was watching Tarzan lol but basically its all based on the social structure that primates have in the wild so its not really a challenge but I like it. I love social structure challenges and I would love to see more challenges based on them. Personally I really like the Orca Social Structure and The Hyena Social Structure, pretty cool to look up and read about. So on to the challenge Requirements: Use sandbox mode to create 1 strong and older male along with 2-4 younger and healthy females all with different immunities (when i create my Nichelings i always like to think of their personalities beforehand or in the process of, but only for role play purposes, you can do whatever you'd like) Start on whatever island of your choosing but, like gorillas, you have to be moving constantly No permanent nests A "troop" (group of gorillas) consists of 2 to 30 members so set tribe size limit to 30 unless you would like to have more than one troop. (I usually do) Baby setting to 2 Child setting to 3 Teen setting to 6 Adult setting to 24 Rogues can be turned off if you'd like an easier challenge Males must have at least two females as mates to create a new troop Gameplay Males The Alpha male is named the Silverback, he is the strongest and oldest of the males, and only he can breed with females. His tasks are: taking decisions, resolve conflicts, defend the group against the enemies, produce offspring, find new sites to feed, define the home area, and so on. All other males whether adult or teens are called Blackbacks. Blackbacks can separate from their birth troop to begin a "Bachelor group" and go off in search of females to start a new troop. Blackbacks can also challenge the Silverback to become the new alpha. (I decide this with a number generator from 1-10, if the number is below 5 then the Blackback loses, if the number is above 6 the Blackback wins) You can decide what to do with the loser, whether you wish to banish him or kill him. Once the Silverback dies, either of old age or wounds, all Blackbacks will compete to become the new Silverback. Make the strongest Blackbacks fight each other and decide who wins with the same number generator as mentioned above. Males protect females and the offspring of the group Wandering males are not welcomed by the Silverback but they can potentially sway a female into creating a new troop Females Breeding females organize in a hierarchy, according to the time in which they joined the troop. Therefore, the first arriving has a higher status than newcomers, and so on. Adult females are usually not related to each other, and it is common to compete to be near the leader, as this provides further protection to them and their offspring. Wandering females can be welcomed into the tribe Tips and Notes: Please suggest anything that could be added or modified. Also, feel free to change anything, its your play through after all. I love to have more than two troops, whether it be they are rivals or for the simple fact that i need new immunities. I have tried this challenge and its pretty fun if you're into roleplaying. Hope you guys have fun with it also. If you have any questions feel free to ask3 points

Hello! I've been playing Niche since the steam release, and It's my go-to relax while I drink my morning coffee game. I also make ceramics as a hobby, and I recently decided to try sculpting one of my nichelings just because the combinations of colors and features are endless (I've always thought the nicheling models would be perfect for 3D printing or other 3D media). It was quite the challenge, but I'm pleased with the results! The nicheling itself is about an inch tall, and I put in on a leaf to make a dish for jewelry or small items.3 points

The first days on their island are pretty slow. Infinity clears the way, Rose and Ambition chat, and Cherry collects food. Collarbone uses his attacking skills to practice on prey, helping Cherry collect her food. Atmos collects his own food, munching in private. Cherry gets a leech caught on her one day, and it is removed with the help of Roses. A bearyena comes after the tribe! Brave Collarbone leaps into action. Dimension rushes in for once in his life, standing in as bait for the unwelcome predator. They successfully take it down and Collarbone is hailed as a hero. But look! Roses is wandering the shores one day when she hears the cry of a kit! Rushing over, she pulls the baby from the waves. "You're coming home with me," she says softly to the kit. "T-Thank you," she says. "What's that?" asks Cherry as Roses passes by, gathering some roots from the ground. "A kit!" Roses declares joyously. "I found her nearly drowning on the shore over there. She's beautiful, isn't she? I'm going to raise her for myself!" She presents her treasure to Ambition, who is just as enthralled with the kit. "What is your name?" asks Ambition to the young kit. "Liza," she says softly. "Well, Liza, welcome to the tribe." The next week, they take Liza, now a teen, to the Stones Of Temptation. A single stone lights up- Liza is assigned to the tribe of Lust. "My first new member!" Says Liza with delight. Collarbone encounters a peaceful bear. Deciding having a peaceful bear around will help ensure protection of the tribe, he gives it 3 nesting material. A few days after patrolling the border, he encounters a teenage male. He challenges him, but the male seeks shelter, and Collarbone shows him to Ambition. "Do you think he's worth keeping? A bit scrawny, if you ask me," hisses the low-voiced Collarbone. "I think he's just fine, thank you very much," says Ambition. "Would you like to join us? What's your name?" "I am Nemo," says the boy. "I guess I'll join you." He is taken to the Pool Of Temptations. Three stones light up- Wrath, Sloth, and Envy." "Who do you choose?" Asks Ambition. "You are nearly an adult and have a stable sense of your identity, so it is likely that this decision will be irreversible. Choose wisely." Nemo looks around at the faces surrounding him. He definitely disliked the way Collarbone talked about him, and was annoyed by the apathetic look on the face of Dimension. He looked confidently at Ambition. "I choose Envy." Atmos's ears perk up with interest. Perhaps he has finally found someone who understands him. Ambition smiles. "Envy it is. You will take up your residence with Atmos." Nemo soon grows into a full adult and is declared an official, full-blown Envy member. Nemo and Atmos don't get into many deep conversations but do become comrades, often getting food together. Another bearyena comes after the tribe, nearly attacking Infinity. "Infinity! Get back!" Barks Collarbone harshly, to which Infinity scrambles to the other side of the clearing. Collarbone springs into action, flying at the Bearyena. Dimension slowly waddles over, taking his place as the bait. "Atmos! Get your tail over here!" Hisses out Collarbone. Though he despises following his commands, Atmos makes his way over, getting in a bite or swipe at the bearyena when he can. Despite the bait, the bearyena turns on Collarbone, getting him relatively good across the chest and abdomen. Howling in pain, he keeps fighting, and with a little more help from Atmos, the bearyena falls. Though the injuries will leave a scar, Collarbone firmly states that he will be fine. Liza grows into a full fledged member of the Lust faction. She mates with Collarbone. "I'm going to have a kit!" Liza happily announces to Roses some time later. "That's fantastic!" Says Roses, nuzzling her once apprentice in a motherly manner. "It'll just be like when I raised you!" After a period of anticipation, the kit is born- a handsome son. "What shall you name him?" Asks Roses excitedly. "He's the very first kit born to Inferno!" "Hmm.... Hey, that's a good idea! Let's name him Inferno!" And so Inferno was his name; the very firstborn of the tribe. Inferno is raised comfortably by the Lust faction until he turns into a teen. Then, he is taken to the Stones Of Temptation. Two stones light up- one stone is Pride, and the other Gluttony. "What do you choose?" Asks Ambition. Honestly, Inferno is unsatisfied... He was hoping he'd be able to stay with his mother and Roses. Even so, he must make a choice according to tribe law. He looks at Cherry, then at Ambition, then back to Cherry. He's not a leading type- why not help provide for the tribe? "Gluttony," he says, and Cherry jumps up and down with happiness. "Awesome! We're gonna put together so many nice feasts for the tribe!" So Inferno is accepted into Gluttony. He gives his mother one last nuzzle before running across the clearing over to Cherry. Soon after Inferno leaves the side of his mother, she decides to have another kit, and Infinity mates with her. This time she gives birth to a daughter. "I'm calling her Excitement!" Says Liza. The name is accurate. Excitement grows into a bouncy young kit, and everyone wonders what faction she will go into when she comes of age. Ambition finds a weakly teen when helping Collarbone drag back his prey one day. The teen has suffered severe head trauma and probably won't have as long of a life expectancy, but she drags him off the shore unconscious and inspects him.The teen wakes up, coughing and sputtering. "I found you drowning out there," says Ambition. "What happened?" "I... I don't remember," confesses the boy. "I was swimming, and I went out too far, and... Ow! My head!!" "Easy, easy!" Says Roses worriedly, helping him lay back down more comfortably. "Do you remember your name?" "...Endurance," he says. "Ironic, considering he won't live long," Collarbone mutters out of earshot. After a few days' rest, Endurance is taken to the Stones of Temptation. One stone lights up; Gluttony. He is disappointed, but joins Gluttony quietly alongside Inferno and Cherry. He wishes that he could join Pride with the pretty female that rescued him. A Bearyena attacks. Collarbone attacks him, and for once, Dimension does his job of being bait. He sustains some injuries but lives while COllarbone takes down the predator. Inferno grows into a full on Gluttony member!3 points

Maybe a volcano island! Not much grass either. I'm just thinking of a volcano island! I NEED A VOLCANO ISLAND NOW3 points

Sure dragons are mythological creatures. So maybe it'd be better to call it a Flying Dinosaur Biome as there's no fire breathing... but the word dragon just makes it sound more appealing. The Dragon Biome is a mixture of Jungle, Swamp, Grassland, and possibly Mountain (without the snow... maybe its a volcanic mountain). There could potentially be a river of lava and/or a tar pit which spreads during certain weather and recedes afterward. However, nichlings can somehow be rescued from these situations by another nichling with some sort of interaction maybe just one called 'pull out' in place of a lick or a warm up. However, while stuck in lava or unable to escape a tar pit their life will be slowly drained away... more so with the lava as that would be a quicker death than a tar pit. Pitahaya's and bananas grow here. Both are fruits. Bat Wings are more likely to spawn here. Possible Genes that can only be found in Dragon Jungle Biome 1. Dome Head (like a dome head dinosaur. A type of head where a coconut can't stun/hurt them.) 2. Tri-horn (goes into horn slot and has three horns like that of a triceratops. Extra strength to hunt and defend.) 3. Spike tail (like a stegasaurus or gigantospinosaurus. Extra strength to hunt and defend.) 4. Raptor Head (Similar to a velociraptor. Has extra strength to hunt with) 5. Prehensile Tail (to gather fruit with) 6. Frill Head (Like a Frilled Lizard. Able to collect bugs.)2 points

based off this! I changed some of the faction roles/lifestyles. Welcome to the Inferno tribe. Sick of traditional Niche clans basing positions off of the strengths of nichelings, these contrarians decide to indulge the weaknesses of their members! It's a tough world, and the survivors of Inferno Tribe boast a reputation of being useful and strong in the face of adversity. When old enough, nichelings are put into their appropriate faction in accordance to the Stones Of Temptation; whichever stone lights up is your destined faction. If more than one lights, then you can make a choice. Factions are as follows: PRIDE -- (ALPHAS) :: Prideful nichelings are tribe leaders. Despite their arrogance, their pride includes being proud of the tribe as a whole, and they do their best not to dishonor those below them. Their gems are multicolored. WRATH -- (ALPHAS) :: Protectors of the tribe, Wrathful nichelings are fearless fighters and have a temper to be reckoned with. They are often feared by other nichelings, and usually only a member of the Pride faction can get a wrath nicheling back in line. Their gems are red. GREED -- (BETAS) :: Greed nichelings fuel their voracious appetite for possessions through clearing island grass, making the conquering of land their sole purpose in life. They are explorers with a thirst for adventure, but often let their ambition overtake their better judgement. Their gems are yellow. GLUTTONY - (BETAS) :: Gluttonous nichelings believe that the way to any nicheling's heart is through their stomach and spend their days providing the clan's food supply. Without gluttonous nichelings, the tribe would starve, so others often ignore their messy tendencies for the sake of being well-fed. Their gems are blue. LUST -- (BETAS) :: Promiscuous, flirtatious and charismatic, lustful nichelings are hard to resist. Despite their reputations for being shallow, they are still rather beautiful, and actually are some of the most compassionate members of the tribe. They help care for young as well as having their own, often protecting nurseries. Their gems are pink. They are the only faction allowed to mate outside of their own rank. ENVY -- (BETAS) :: Deemed unfit for the other tribe roles, envious nichelings are commonly treated as outcasts or ignored by all other factions. The only true interaction they get is from those of their own faction. Though usually incredibly lonely, envious nichelings usually have an opportunity to do as they please rather than sticking to one faction. Their gems are green. SLOTH -- (OMEGAS) :: Essentially useless, these lazy nichelings provoke the rage of all other tribe members. However, unlike their envious counterparts, they don't care, and sleep through most of the criticisms directed at them. They are often used as bait for predators. Ironically, they also have multicolored gems, but this is because they are too lazy to pick coordinating colors. OTHER INFO It is common for 1-2 stones to light up for a nicheling. It is uncommon for 3-4 stones to light up. It is rare for 5-6 to light up. It is near paranormal for all 7 to light up. I'll be using this generator i made. Pardon some repeats, just make it part of the story! SETTINGS: Baby = 1 Day Child = 7 Days ; This time is spent in the nursery and learning about the seven factions. Teen = 14 Days ; Life in a nicheling's chosen faction begins. Adult = 100 Days ; Ain't no rest for the wicked. Pregnancy = 7 Days. Enemy Damage = 14 Days Hunger Damage = 7 Days Environmental Damage = 4 Days Healing = 1 Day We start with seven nichelings, one of each faction. Their names are, from left to right, Atmos of Envy, Ambition of Pride, Cherry of Gluttony, Dimension of Sloth, Collarbone of Wrath, Roses of Lust, and Infinity of Greed.2 points

Part 1: Our little survivors. From left to right: Daisy, Foxglove, Elm, and Rowan. The babies decide they should have leaders, so Foxglove and Rowan (being the oldest by a day), are elected king and queen of the tribe. They begin to head up the whale in hopes of finding a good spot for a camp. Rowan pretends to be a female for a second to make everyone laugh. He's doing his best to keep their morale up. They are now full adults! Despite all odds, they have still managed to persevere. Soon after, Foxglove gives birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl! They are named Rose and Maple. Daisy also births a daughter, who is named Clover. I unfortunately lost the baby pictures, but rest assured they do exist. Not too long later, Foxglove and Daisy both give birth to boys! Foxglove names her son Pine, while Daisy names her son Oak. The two fathers are very proud. Rose is interested in her baby brother, you can see her lurking in the background. Clover and Maple become very close, both being assigned berry picking duty. Eventually, they decide they want to be mates. Both parents are very excited! After all, this is the third generation. Daisy is looking forward to being a grandmother, even though she just birth another daughter named Buttercup. Queen Foxglove is also pregnant again. Daisy and Foxglove both give birth to their last children. Foxglove births a son named Fir, and Daisy has a daughter she names Zinnia. Clover looks proudly at her little sister and wonders what her baby will look like. She's not waiting long as she gives birth overnight to her first daughter, named Peony. Maple, the proud father, immediately races over to look and falls in love with his daughter. He's very proud to be a dad. Rose and Oak, being some of the first children born, have decided they want to start their own family as well. You can see Rose in the nest at the far left. Clover gives birth twice more, one to a son named Spruce, and another to a daughter named Heather (not pictured, unfortunately). Rose also gives birth to a daughter named Cattail, who can be seen by the berry bush on the right. Fir can be seen here checking out his nephew. Part 2 will be posted soon!2 points

Even though the new update is awesome and all, I decided to just do a normal playthrough for my first one on here, because why not. No ranks (for now), no settings, no challenges, just normal Niche. We begin with Taku and Mirera, two runaways (and best friends) from an extremely strict tribe that just want a normal life without any rules. Their senses tell them that no food sources are nearby, so by Taku's insistence, they wade into the water where Taku discovers a berry bush and is miraculously able to pick one for Mirera. She smiles and picks three for him in return. After many days of traveling across the coast, romance blossoms, and they decide they want to have a child together. Taku finds a berry bush and Mirera declares that she will have their children here. Mirera gets pregnant, but soon after a young Nicheling by the name of Rako wanders over. She doesn't remember anything except a great storm and then being washed up on the coast the day before along with her name. Out of pity, the new couple adopts her as one of their own. Afterwards, Mirera settles down and makes a nest while Taku clears out the area. The next day, a long-snouted boy named Rovan is born.2 points

So, this tribe. It started out as a tribe to play with for a competition. But then I got attached and kept on playing and now it's one of two playthroughs that I actually play anymore. (not including some other small tribes that I might come back to later) Anyways, now that the 1.1.7 version is out, I want to play it with that tribe. Please vote whether I should try updating it or no! Note that I will make sure to back it up first, so if it glitches I can go back to the stable (🐴) version, but lose the progress that was made in the new version. (I'll also back it up as I play the testing version.)2 points

Does anyone know of there's a console code that will let you invite members of Adam's family? I know having the home island immunity alone doesn't do it. I thought it would be neat to start as a member of Adam's family on home island in sandbox mode, but it doesn't seem like any of the creatures will join me2 points

This isn't really important but it would be cool if melanistic nichelings had really faint stripes/spots/etc like they do in real life2 points

You should include more detail than just naming a few random genes if you're wanting people to upvote this. What would the stats be? How would you unlock them? Also, each gene should have its own individual post. Hooves have been suggested before, and there's also suggestions for both a bobtail and a rabbit/deer tail. What would make the goat tail different?2 points
-
Most suggestions have nothing to do with nichelings getting hurt lol. There are far more suggestions for new genes and stuff like that. And while lots of new genes are cool, the game would probably get boring without the odd 'violent' suggestion. I get if that sort of thing isn't your cup of tea,but if that's the case then can't you just stick to some easier islands where theres less stuff to worry about killing your nichelings? A lot of people would lose interest in the game pretty quickly with nothing to make the game more challenging Also, in response to your first comment, rogue males aren't meant to be goofy, they're meant to cause problems and add challenge to the game2 points

Oh I forgot about the free download one! Tbh I rarely downvote a suggestion because I'm afraid to hurt other's feelings! To me, it's not like if I downvote it then it won't be implemented.2 points
-
To be honest, the voting system never stops to surprise me. Free download might be Nr. -1 by today, though. Somehow...2 points
-
I guess we have a different opinion on seriousness? I'm really not sure what to say, but please don't worry about suggestions that seem overkill. They're usually very unpopular, so the community doesn't like harshness. I think some of the most downvotes I've seen were on cancer and abortions, so anything even related to dying baby nichelings and unpredictable death is one big no-no.2 points

At this point in Niche, everyone can only think of things that hurt your Nichelings. What about new biomes? New ways to genes aside from wanderers? Special genes that really don't make sense? Goat head? Hooves? Stub tails? I could think of so much that isn't related to the Nichelings getting hurt. A way to tame rogue males into your tribe? Anything magical isn't really bad. Remember whale island? That's a whale. That your Nichelings live on. Now isn't that magical? I just wish everything wasn't about your Nichelings getting hurt and just things being realistic. Isn't Niche supposed to be where you get away from life and problems and just life the real world and agony? Aren't all games supposed to do that? Niche is one of those relaxing games, aren't they? Or is it about dying and suffering in a climate because your last child died by a rogue male? I can't get the grasp of why this should be added. Niche, in my mind, is about surviving and being calm while doing it. And saying this, makes me realize it doesn't do that anymore. Also, please don't take this seriously. I'm tired. I just wasted my time writing this and killing myself in the process. I should probably not post this.2 points

Actions points are cool, but maybe they could just not move as much in another way? So if their speed is 5, they'd only have a two or three. Otherwise, picking a berry would be as exhausting as actually running. It helps that rogues are very slow, despite speed genes at times. Another possibility is reducing their lifespan. The near immortal rogues on higher age settings would be nerfed that way, too.2 points
-
For some reason, if you start on any other island (ex. The crossing), you can invite members of Adam’s family if you have the home island immunity. However, starting on home island does not allow you to invite them, even if you do have the immunity. Hope this helped!2 points

"May all seven factions come together," calls Ambition. "There is a discussion to be made." The seven factions trickle out of wherever they were doing their work and come before Ambition, sitting patiently. "We need to discuss the possibility of moving islands," says Ambition. "There are many wanderers here, and they are starting to steal our food. I firmly believe that it is our time to move on to the next island." With a flick of her tail, she shows the two island exits. "We have two possible places to go; west or east." The tribe looks to the island exits. To the west there is a flowerbed, and to the east is a cold-looking path. "I call for a vote. We will start at the lowest rank and go from there, and I will ultimately decide at the end. Let Sloth go first." "I don't care," says Dimension. "As expected," Sighs Ambition. "What does Envy say?" "East," declares Atmos. It looks larger and more spread out." "Understood. Lust?" "West," says Roses, gesturing to Excitement. "It looks like a safer place to raise young." "Gluttony?" "West!" Says Cherry. "We thought it looked more plentiful." "Alright. Greed?" "West. It looks like there's a lot to offer." "Okay. Wrath?" "I don't care," says Collarbone. "I'll defend you against a million." Ambition smiles at him before forming a serious look on her face. "May the seven factions fall silent as I come to a decision." It isn't long before she says, "May the tribe make preparations to move East." So they do. The tribe moves across the island to the exit. Even Dimension tags along. However, once they come to the port, they realize that there are two too many to travel! The factions look at each other, concerned. "I'll stay behind," says Dimension. "Too tired to travel anyway." "Thank you Dimension," says Ambition. "But that still leaves another tribe member behind." "I'll stay behind," says Endurance. "I'm not going to live too much longer." "Endurance! You mustn't!" Yelps Cherry, but he is resolute. They leave him behind. Once they arrive on the new island, it comes to the attention of Ambition that they need to take Excitement to the Stones of Temptation. Luckily, they are in supply. Somehow. One stone lights up. Excitement is destined for pride! "Oh, perfect!" Says Ambition, nudging the teen. She is taken into the Pride den. Here are all of them together: Immediately, Infinity gets to work clearing grass. Collarbone keeps guard, and Cherry and Inferno get to work gathering food. Atmos and Nemo get a little ahead of the other tribe members, exploring on their own a bit. Meanwhile, Ambition gets to know her new faction member with a sense of awe. "So, what do you think of all the factions?" The she-nicheling asks. "Well... I appreciate Lust raising me, for one. I'm really glad I was put into pride... Wrath scares me a bit. I rather like Greed, since my father is the founder. Gluttony seems nice. I think those in Envy are rather interesting! I just don't like Sloth much." One day, unexpected news rocks the clan... Cherry is pregnant! "Inferno and I will be having a baby!" She bounds over to Excitement and Roses. "And you guys will get to raise them! Can you believe it?" "We'll help find you a good nest!" Says Roses, smiling. Atmos looms at the side of the clearing with a twinge of jealousy. The kit is later born. Cherry has a son. "He's perfect!" Says Cherry. "Let's call him... Paragon." Paragon is unique looking, causing a sense of wonder from the tribe. Cherry quickly returns to her work in Gluttony after his birth, entrusting his care to Roses and Excitement. "He's definitely not what I expected," says Roses with a laugh. "He doesn't look like either of them." With this new addition comes an unexpected loss. Collarbone drops dead unexpectedly. Excitement tries her best to figure out what happened, but all she can deduce is that his wounds from the bearyena attack many moons ago did him in. Ambition is heartbroken and is uncharacteristically silent, even to Excitement. She will not let anyone know of her suffering aside from her fellow Pride companion. Instead, she just explains away her feelings with the worry that the tribe has no real source of protection now. "Come on, Ambition," says Excitement. "I know there is more to the story than that." Bitterly, as if she is spitting out something, Ambition admits, "I was in love with him." "In love? With someone from a different faction?" "I doubt he even knew," hisses Ambition. "He was perfect, and I knew I could never tell him. It was stupid, and it's even more stupid that I'm stuck on it now." Excitement grows into a full fledged member of Pride, taking her place as leader alongside Ambition. But look! A kit is found in the tall grass by Infinity! He's almost a teenager! "Who are you?" Asks Excitement curiously, being given the go-ahead by Pride to approach him. "I'm Thunder," he says. "I'm looking to join a tribe." "Perfect! We're needing new members." She takes Thunder to Ambition and presents him. "I've decided this one would be worth taking in.Thoughts?" "We do need more members. He can stay." The next day he is taken to the Stones of Temptation. Three stones light up- Envy, Lust, and Greed. "What will it be?" "Greed," Thunder says. He takes his residence up with Infinity. However, later that day, the fears of Ambition are realized. A bearyena attacks! She orders Atmos and Nemo after it, or to at least distract it. They manage to do so until it dies. It is now time for Paragon to be taken to the Stones Of Temptation. Three stones light up- Gluttony, Pride, and Sloth. "We need a new leader of Sloth," says Ambition. "I suggest you choose that one." Therefore, he does. After he leaves the nest, Roses excitedly announces she is pregnant, with the father of the kit being Inferno. One day while clearing grass, Thunder finds a young kit.She looks as if she's been through some wear and tear, and he brings her to Liza, who agrees to take the kit in. She names her Grace. "It was good of you to bring her to me," said Liza. "The more members we get, the better," affirms Thunder. Unfortunately, Roses loses the kit that she was to have and is rather upset about it. She is cheered up by the arrival of a new kit into the clan, and treats her as if she were her own. Grace isn't the most conventionally beautiful nicheling, but everyone in the tribe thinks she's as pretty as can be and envies her lovely horns. Inferno offers Cherry the idea of having another kit, but Cherry knows that age is probably why Roses lost her kit. Since she is the same age as Roses, she declines. Grace grows into a teenager and is taken to the Stones Of Temptation. Two stones light up- One for Greed, and one for Gluttony. "Who do you choose?" Asks Excitement. Grace thinks of the kindly Greedling that brought her into the tribe in the first place. "Greed," answers Grace. It is made so.2 points

3B: The world is burning Near the back, the newly christened queen Primrose gives birth to a son named Tonoak. Towards the forefront, Daffodil gives birth to a daughter named Orchid. Orchid is sort of fleeting, and more than a little mischievous. The second she could walk from the nest, she wanted to bother everyone and everything. She's quite the Stagmole hunter. The fire has raged through half of the savanna now, and the clan is beginning to feel the heat as they run out of places to run. Magnolia, afraid of seeing her family line die with her, mates with a friendly bearyena under the cover of night. She soon gives birth to a unique, even tempered daughter named Smilax. Now a fire starts in the middle of the camp. The whole tribe is thrown into chaos and nichelings flee for their lives from the burning flames. Once some safety is reached, Tulip and Daffodil rest to give birth. Tulip bears a daughter named Larkspur, while Daffodil has a son named Walnut. Walnut and Smilax seem to get along well. Young Rosebud bears her first pup - A girl named Narcissus. Perhaps a fitting name, since she is rather arrogant and upright. She just needs the right person to calm her down, the other mothers assure Rosebud. In fact, the queen seems to have birthed an answer in the form of a son named Cashew (seen here before his renaming). Because their fur color and patterns match, Narcissus seems to see him as a sort of equal. Who knew? Many births in one picture! In the far left nest is Tulip with her daughter Anemone. In the upper middle nest is Sweet Pea with her daughter Amaryllis, and in the right nest is Azalea, the daughter of Myrtle and a tamed bearyena. Off to the side, Rosebud gives birth to a son named Cottonwood. He and Azalea play with each other often through their puphood and promise to be mates when they grow up. The king's last photo. While Queen Primrose will live on, King Elderberry will soon be joining the ancestors up in the summerlands. Sweet Pea gives birth to a son she names Ginko. Magnolia can be seen helping the young mother out while the clan continues to move eastwards ahead of the fire. Orchid has her first child! It is a son named Redwood. The pup's charm and handsome looks promise him a mate not too long after he grows up. On the same day, Snapdragon finally begins her family with Madrone, birthing a healthy girl named Chestnut. The clan continues to move east, heading for a familiar looking port. Could it be the same whale? Probably not, but it will at least give them time to bring up their food stores and prepare for the next hot biome and the lands beyond.2 points

Part 3A: The Burning Desert When we last left, the family was on the verge of leaving. So where did King Larch and Queen Flax take them? The answer is to the Burning Savanna. Our adventurers take their first steps onto the dry grass. The wind is blowing but it offers no relief from the relentless heat that seems to beat down on the land. Everybody is unbelievably hot by the first day, and it only gets worse from there. Larch and Flax try to keep the family together as they move into the savanna that will be their home for the next few generations. Queen Flax births the first baby of the new island, a daughter named Gardenia. Several of the other females find their partners and begin starting their own families, families that will call this island their home. The queen orders the males to conduct exploratory parties around to search for more nests and a begin clearing out grass. Carnation gives birth to her first son, Yew. Yew is sort of rough and tumble, so the other pups don't like him much at first. In the nest at the back left, Jasmine gives birth to her first son, Elderberry. The entire clan is suffering in the heat, but there's nothing that can be done. A bearyena attacks the camp, but the males manage to kill it and then make friends with the baby left behind. Many births in one day! Queen Flax gives birth to a daughter she names Poppy, and Dandelion gives birth to a son named Buckthorn. You can see Yew taking his first steps out of the next on the bottom left corner. Unfortunately just out of the image is Aster, who also births a son named Hawthorn. Carnation gives birth to the most beautiful daughters: Snapdragon and Primrose. So taken by Primrose's beauty, Elderberry makes it a point to hang around her often. Near the back, Camellia gives birth to her daughter Magnolia. Jasmine has just birthed her last daughter, Lily. The queen and the king get ready to welcome the last member of the royal family near the bottom of the picture. Dandelion brings a much needed son into the world with Beech, a handsome boy that Lily seems to enjoy playing with. Uh oh... A wildfire is starting... Despite the slight panic everyone feels, the queen births a lovely pair of twins, Cactus and Crocus. Gardenia gives birth, making the king and queen grandparents. They are unbelievably proud of their daughter for bringing such a beautiful son into the world. His name is Hemlock. Not too long after her sister, Poppy mates with Yew and gives birth to a daughter she names Iris. Oleander and Buckthorn fall deeply in love. It isn't long before Oleander gives birth to a daughter named Daffodil. Hyacinth, terrified of dying childless, mates with the tamed bearyena. Everyone is shocked, but none more so than Carnation, who feels her sister betrayed her. Petunia gives birth to a darling son named Laurel. Gardenia welcomes a daughter to the world, and names her Myrtle. Myrtle is somewhat standoffish, but Laurel's confident personality was sure to attract some attention in the female half of the family. The fire continues to spread. Panic is more imminent now. The clan begins moving east to get away from the fire. Hyacinth gives birth to her hybrid daughter - a surprisingly beautiful pup she names Tulip. Laurel is immensely interested in the hybrid female, and the two hang out quite a bit through their childhood. Towards the back, Oleander gives birth to her second daughter: Rosebud, while in the front, Poppy gives birth to her own second daughter in Sweet Pea. Lily makes Jasmine a grandmother by giving birth to her eldest son, Redbud. He's a peppy pup who always wants to play. He bothers Rosebud a lot. The fire was really spreading at this point and the entire clan is moving east as quickly as possible to keep ahead of the blaze. The only thing they can do is pray for rain soon. Petunia gives birth to her second son, Juniper. He's much calmer than his brother, quieter too maybe, he gets along well with Sweet Pea. The last picture of Queen Flax and King Larch before they passed. After they died, the whole clan prayed to the ancestor spirits to pick the next Queen and King. Primrose and Elderberry were selected. The choice was very popular, though some questioned Primrose's fitness to lead being so quiet and meek. Lily gives birth to another fetching son in Madrone. Madrone is a little restive though, very intelligent, but he gets along better with adults. He hangs out with Snapdragon quite a bit through his youth.2 points

Shouldn't it add at least one more strength? It has two extra horns and if you have 50 nichelings with ram horns I think it'd be fair to unlock a stronger horn gene2 points

We're back again with this challenge, and the cold season seems to be drawing to a close. The nichelings (what should I name this tribe?) focus on collecting food to feed themselves. Love is in the air however, and a few of the nichelings have different ideas on how to spend their day. Anamera and Tango specifically, and finally a new baby will be born soon! But only a little later things get more interesting. The same rogue male comes back, a little too close to Ladybug. Strawberry fends him off, but as usual, not for long. A peaceful bear also makes an appearance, peering through the grasses at Vankirkir. Unfortunately Ladybug and Vankirkir, best friends when they were young, have drifted apart. Because of this he chooses to follow the peaceful bear, who he deems as his pet. The baby bearyena grows bigger by the day, and soon may pose a threat to the tribe. The cold season ends, luckily with no snow. The original three are growing old, but Anamera isn't done with baby-making yet. She has a handsome little boy (a boy again -_-) named Zekuta who's genes are healthy/useful at least. Thank the gods he has a beak, so he can peck at the termites like his grandfather Zerolur. Zerolur and Zatala spend most of their days gathering food, crazy in love. The old couple begins to prepare for their death and never stray far from each other. Twizzler, Ladybug, and Strawberry (I love him) form a tight group, staying together to gather food, explore, and scare off the pesky rogue who they refer to as Mosca (fly in spanish, and he is a pest, like a fly, get it?) Vankirkir gets distracted from his peaceful bear pet as he stumbles upon a new nicheling, Sunny. Vankirkir eagerly invites him into the tribe- he seems to love inviting nichelings into the tribe- and looses track of his pet for a moment. He quickly learns that Sunny is of no value to the tribe. He has a deformed paw, bad fertility, hemophilia, and no genes that will help his tribe in the cold climate. Zatala asks Vankirkir to kick Sunny out of the tribe, quietly so she doesn't make Sunny feel bad of course. The bearyena, who had dissappeared among the grasses a while ago, suddenly reappears. He charges at Ladybug, but Strawberry jumps into the way and claws him across the nose. The bearyena backs away, but as you guessed, not for long. Ladybug already harbors a crush for Strawberry, but after he valiantly defends her, she is sold. Meanwhile Vankirkir hesitantly banishes Sunny, who runs away with flattened ears and a dejected whimper. Zerolur is excited about his first grandson and eagerly starts teaching him the art of termite eating. Zekuta is interested at first, but soon grows bored and runs away. He already seems to take after his grandfather, not only in appearnce but his impatience as well. Unfortunately he runs right into the bearyena, but luckily Strawberry is nearby. He hears Zekuta cry for help and leaps in and slays the bearyena. Later, Ladybug and Strawberry mate. Anamera, feeling a little lonely after Zekuta's early departure, decides to pay her first child a visit. Tano is a diligent provider and hardly moves from his collecting spot. Mother and son reconnect, having not seen each other for many days. Ladybug meanwhile gives birth to a boy (are you serious) named Moosh. You can't see it here, but Moosh has inherited big body in his recessive slot. YES! He is the tribe's first sign of hope. He also sports poison fangs, guaranteeing the fact that he will be able to collect from poisonous berry bushes in the future. The next day is mostly uneventful, but the tribe gets to interact. Tango pays a visit to his parents Zatala and Zerolur, and Zekuta meets his nephew/cousin Moosh. Everything is going well. Mosco hasn't appeared in a while and there are no signs of predators or snow. Jinxed. Mosco appears again, intent on getting to Zatala. Zekuta jumps to defend his grandma, and Zerolur scratches the rogue. He's wounded in the process, but the feisty bird won't let Mosco get to his beloved again. Not too far away, Tano and Tango prepare to say goodbye to Anamera (noooo) who doesn't have much longer to live. The others focus on food and breeding, and Vankirkir insists he use more nesting material to keep his pet (what should he name it?) happy. Ladybug and Strawberry have a beautiful daughter (FINALLY) named Islala. She too has big body recessive and poison fangs, but unfortuantely she does carry hemophilia. Nevertheless, she is a welcome member to the tribe as the first daughter born and they celebrate! We end on a good note That's all for today! I might do a time jump because this is going along a little slowly. Or at least space out the scenes/story bits more. Anyways I'm so glad we're making progress.2 points

Ambition is the founder of the Pride faction and is leader of the tribe. She hates being called prideful, but she knew it was the sin most accustomed to her. Any criticism is very hard for her to handle, and therefore being called prideful, even if it means being leader, really bothers her. She has feelings for Collarbone, but refuses to admit it; her feelings for him are partially why she put Wrath as a higher faction in the rankings. Collarbone is the founder of the Wrath faction. He is by far the strongest of the tribe, and is a force to be reckoned with in any argument. Many fear his temper. He is militaristic and methodical and has a strong desire to help the tribe overtake as much land as possible, fighting tooth and claw for it. He admires Infinity for his talents in conquering, but Infinity's personality annoys him so he doesn't praise him. He is a nicheling of few words and only gets verbose when enraged. Infinity , founder of the Greed faction, is the adventurer of the tribe, taking it upon himself to go ahead of the others and clear the path for them. He thirsts for adventure and recognition, specifically recognition from Ambition, who he is attracted to. However, he more so is interested in the idea of her than an actual relationship- Roses has tried to woo him many times, only to be rejected. Repeatedly. Cherry is the happy-go-lucky founder of the Gluttony faction. Motherly and nosy, she will always make sure everyone is eating well (after feeding herself first, of course)! She feels bad for Atmos, but he has rebuked her comfort so much that even she has given up on him. Roses is the founder of the Lust faction. She is rather beautiful, and she knows it. This does not mean she is vain- she just has deep insecurity, so she often gets overattached to others, both platonically and romantically. She is a big softie. She is the close friend of Ambition. She used to be friends with Infinity, but after being pushed away from him multiple times she has grown to dislike him. His rebuttals have made her even more insecure. Bitter and antisocial, Atmos of Envy finds it hard to connect with others. He wishes he was more unique, so he often attacks those that he wishes he were like. He has developed feelings for Cherry after her repeated acts of kindness towards him, but he knows that he has messed up their possible relationship with his inability to hold a conversation. He deeply resents Ambition for putting this whole system together and deliberately avoids her at all costs. Dimension is the founder of Sloth by default, since he really didn't care about doing anything else. He doesn't say or do much, but is a rather deep thinker. He often has his head in the clouds. He has a like for Cherry, since she always brings him food. However, he dislikes Atmos because he believes he is dramatic.2 points

4 to 8 pieces... since crabbits give four, but if poison critter is more difficult I'd think it should give more food?2 points

The tribe is joined by a teenager named Trinity. She is taken to the Stones of Temptation and two stones light up- Envy and Lust. The factions cheer- two spots that need filled! She chooses Lust. "That's perfect!" Says Purpose, whose kit is coming soon. The tribe is also joined by another teenager named Rainbow. At the Stones Of Temptation, she is taken into Wrath. Excitement watches from afar as Cannon gets attached to the new female. She feels a twinge of nostalgia as she realizes she has affections for Cannon, similar to how Ambition was in love with Collarbone. Purpose's kit finally comes- he is a boy, and she names him Musk. Musk is put under Trinity's care. "Are you nervous?" Asks Purpose. "Why would I be nervous?" She asks, flicking her tail curiously. "It's your first kit to take care of! You're only a teen yourself." Purpose giggles. "Well, a bit, I guess." "Don't be. We've been looking for someone like you for a long time."1 point
