Hi guys! No I haven't abandoned this post haha^^ I can't dedicate as much time as I'd like to drawing but I'll keep drawing your beautiful nichelings @Aetherskye Here is your Snocat! I'm not really good at painting white creatures but I've tried my best 🤣 Hope you like it! I'll continue drawing the rest of the nichelings you've suggested, but don't expect very often updates, since I prefer being meticulous and slow than hurrying with each picture4 points

Since we've been blessed by an artificial invasion of wanderers, there might aswell be a challenge about it. Naturally, no children. Any island with hot to moderate temperatures will do. 30 was a good lifespan for normal challenges, so I'd recommend 50, Predators x2-3, enviroment 0. No healing. Additional rules: -- limited console use. Pick a good trait and a bad one. Then have a generator roll for "0", "1" and "2". 0 is no new trait. Alternatively, if you have warrior names, fix 2-3 traits to the name. "Lighteye" might be blind or shortsighted. Dapplefrost should have spots on white fur, Sterlingclaw better strenght, etc. -- seasons! That's right, less food for the one pawed army. In all seriousness, try a simplified version: For every 8 days with access to berries, restrict use for 4. Hunt prey or crack nuts, but no fruit. You can add or remove resources from that, but counting days too much isn't fun. No unlimited fridge. Unfortunately, food points only hold so long. Give yourself a maximum: 5 food for every nicheling, no more. What to do with your new free time? Collect nesting material. Once you reach 500, the challenge is complete.2 points

After posting the blue-eyed baby suggestion I started thinking about other things that could be added for little nichelings. And so I came up with playing and chasing. Baby animals playfight, spar, chase each other and prey items, climb, just have a good time you know. But these activities benefit the baby for it's future as an independent adult. When baby bears playfight they sharpen fighting skills, when horse foals chase each other they build muscle that will let them run faster. Any nicheling will have the potential to gain +1 Strength, +1 Defense, or +1 Speed if they have 3 or less on that stat (if they have 4 or more on any of these stats then they can't get a bonus). But only if they playfight/chase as a baby or child a certain amount of times. So make sure they have siblings or cousins, cause if not they're getting nada Playfighting would just be an action where you hover over a young nicheling with another young one (baby and child stages) and select playfight. Playfighting will give your nichelings a chance at having a bonus stat (+1 strength or defense) when they become teens/adults. -This can possibly depend on who they play with. For example if a baby plays with a child then when the baby is grown it will get a defense bonus, since it had to defend itself against the larger child. This could be vice versa also, with the child getting strength for fighting the baby. -Or their bonus could instead depend on their actions. If one youngster is always initiating the playfighting then it might get a strength bonus, while the one who is at the end of the action often might get a defense bonus. Playfighting can perhaps be extended to mock-fighting in teenagers that will also give bonuses. *** Chasing would work differently, and by this I mean chasing prey. Rabbils are the only small land animals available so baby and child nichelings could "pounce" or "attack" on a nearby rabbil. The rabbil will not get hurt and will skitter away, but this gives the baby a chance at having a speed bonus. The baby/child (and possibly teen) will need to do/be the recipient of the action 4(?) times to get a bonus, and this number can increase if your nichelings live longer due to changed settings.

With defenders... they land a maximum of three attacks in revenge A nichelings "bad" stat can only be reset by being hit Hunting is more offensive to the defender than anything else They may attack a random nicheling when the offender is not around. Leaving nichelings in their movement range of 2 is hence not save. A nicheling who has not offended the defender personally is generally hit only once Whether your nichelings die or not makes no difference to them. They only care about landing a set number of attacks So it's better to let it kill someone than wasting turns at times. It sucks that they can smell you, but you can't sense them often enough, but they need a reason to attack, then stop when vengeance is achieved. If only one is around, kiting may be viable, though. They'll always go for hunters. In the case of Rust, when it did not hit you back, you can be 100% sure that they'll have their sights set on someone more "bad".2 points

Here's the log for the second session, Pollyanna's Quest 2. I had learned my lesson and started on Grass Mingle this time. I actually started it the same day as the first session - right after the previous failed - and finished it the same day. This clan probably lasted around 21 days. With this file, I've learned my lesson: don't even try to hit a defender bear. Even if you don't hurt it, it will retaliate. (The starting creatures, from left to right, counter-clockwise: Tiko, Nivan, and Meelki.) SESSION 2 ----------------- File is "Pollyanna's Quest 2," starting on Grass Mingle. IMPORTANT CREATURES - TIKA, a cream female nicheling with darker spots and blue eyes. She is the STARTING FEMALE, and can dig and swim. - NIVAN, a gray male nicheling with huge ears. He is the STARTING MALE, and can hunt and gather. - MEELKI, a black male nicheling with spines and a platy bill. He is the STARTING CHILD, and he can hunt and swim. - KOEL, a melanistic female nicheling with a derp snout. TIMELINE Day 1: Tika and Nivan discover that Meelki is sickly. Day 2: Tika is avoiding Meelki, but Nivan is still kind to the child. Day 4: Meelki discovers a permanent nest. Day 5: Tika moves into the nest and discovers Koel, who is melanistic. Meelki decides she will be a forager. Day 6: Tika begets Ronunu, Nivan's son. Day 7: Meelki accidentally sickens Nivan, and Tika becomes increasingly agitated. Day 9: Tika is sickened, too. Nivan attacks a bearyena. Day 10: Meelki dies of illness, but not before advising Nivan to investigate the bearyena. Day 11: The bearyena kills Nivan. Tika begets Kuen, a son. Day 13: The bearyena approaches the nursery, and an enraged Tika finally kills it. Koel, knowing Meelki's wishes, rescues the bearyena cub. Koel and Tika get into an argument about who would be the next Moonseer. Tika wants Kuen to be the Moonseer, because his fur color matches the legendary Pollyanna's. Koel refuses, saying that Meelki wanted her to be the next one. Tika is extremely angry, and Koel tries to calm her by promising she would train Kuen. Tika continues to be angry. Day 15: Tika delivers Tais and dies, while Kuen is suddenly killed by an unfriendly bearyena. Koel interprets this as a punishment against Tika. Day 16: The mean bearyena kills Tais. Ronunu invites Lurlur (with Koel's permission). Everyone decides it is best to leave the mean bearyena. Koel declares Ronunu to be a hunter, and Lurlur a carer. Day 17: Ronunu grows up, and Koel names him Rust. Rust kills the harassing bearyena. Day 18: Koel begets Aname, child of a rogue, but flees from a defender bear. Rust foolishly tries to attack the bear, but fails. Day 19: The defender bear does not attack Rust, and Lurlur scolds him. Day 21: Koel gives birth to Donno, child of the bearyena, but the defender bear kills Koel. Everyone harasses the defender bear, and everyone ends up dying.2 points

This is the log for the first session, Pollyanna's Quest, which started on the island type First Snow. It lasted only 40 days, (The starting creatures, from left to right: Tiko, Meelki, and Nivan.) SESSION 1 ----------------- File is "Pollyanna's Quest," starting on First Snow. IMPORTANT CREATURES - TIKA, a gray female nicheling with yellow eyes. She is the STARTING FEMALE. She can dig and fish. - NIVAN, a tan male nicheling with black eyes. He is the STARTING MALE. He can hunt and swim. - MEELKI, a black male nicheling with long horns. He is the STARTING CHILD. He has no useful paws. - KILIKI, a blue, spotted female nicheling. She has toxic body, and is the second Moonseer. She dies of starvation, and feeling like she was a failure. TIMELINE Day 0: Tika, Nivan, and Meelki arrive on the island. (interestingly, Tika carries striped pattern, Nivan carries spots, and Meelki carries mask.) (Despite having no paws to use, Meelki is very brave.) Day 1: The trio begin to explore. Day 3: Meelki is a teenager now. Day 5: Tika gives birth to a daughter, Kilen. Her father is Nivan. (Kilen is spotted and has toxic body.) Day 6: Nivan finds a colony of Rabbils. Day 7: Meelki helps hunt. Day 9: Meelki is now an adult. Day 11: Kilen is declared a carer by Meelki. Day 13: Meelki befriends a Peaceful bear. Day 17: Meelki decides the clan needs to leave the island. Day 21: Nivan dies. Mira is born. Day 23: Tika dies. Day 26: Meelki, Mira, Kilen, and Lakita travel. Day 27: After the stresses of travel, Meelki announces Lakita a hunter and Mira a Forager. Meelki attacks a cactus, and dies. Day 28: Everyone mourns, but Lakita gives birth to Kiliki, a rogue's daughter. Kiliki has a crippled paw like Meelki, so she is chosen to be the next Moonseer. Day 30: Kilen begets Pripri, her and Meelki's son. He is ill. Kilen also discovers Iskkir. Day 32: Kilen dies of starvation. Day 33: Lakita dies, too. Day 34: Mira, pregnant with Iskkir's child, finds more food. Day 37: Mira dies of starvation, leaving behind her daughter, Milenana. Day 39: Kiliki dies of starvation. Day 40: Milenana is killed by a Bearyena.2 points

Ah yes, as soon as I get back I find Grandmother getting attacked by a bearyeena. Well, she has one strength and everybody else is a baby, so we're solving this with console commands. I mean, we just started, I'm not letting everyone get eaten just yet! (No pictures for right now... I'm writing this without internet.) Ooh! And it came with a baby! Grandmother tames it and takes it under her care. A few days later all the babies finally grew up! Now they can walk and... that's about it. I guess we'll just have to wait another 35 days until they become teens. In the mean time, Grandmother breeds with the now fully grown bearyeena. Though, the pregnancy duration has been set to 12 days, so nothing interesting is going to happen for a while. Two or three days later, everything starts to fall apart. Not only has another bearyeena attacked (I'm fixing this with console commands too) but we're also completely out of food! Luckily though, there's enough roots near us to fix this for now, but we'll have to keep this in mind for the future. Well, now that we've got that solved, we should focus on collecting nesting material, really boring. I'll post again once the little ones have grown up so we can start doing interesting stuff again.2 points

Deer are very common where I live, so sometimes a random doe can just waltz into our streets. I remember when I was younger and the neighbor’s dog chased a young buck once!2 points

Since there's currently only 3 types of hind legs, I thought one that matches up with winged nichlings would work. The gene would give them 4+ attack since a predatory bird's talons are pretty powerful. I might put up a drawing on what it might look like later.1 point

This may not be necessary but I thought this could add a little touch of detail. Some animals (including some people) are born with blue eyes that later become darker as time goes on. This is due to lack of melanin that the animal is born with but will eventually gain. Domestic cat kittens, for example, are always born with blue eyes that start getting hints of green/orange/whatever adult eye color the closer they are to adulthood (this usually begins at 6-7 weeks). By the time they are adults their eyes will no longer be blue (unless the cat is supposed to have blue eyes throughout its life). Nichelings would be born with blue eyes that they will keep through the baby and child stages. When they are teens they have a ring of their adult color around their pupil, and when they are an adult they have no blue at all. If a nicheling has blue eyes in its dominant allele then its eyes won't change of course. Again this is just a little detail and it doesn't even occur in all animals but I thought I'd still suggest it. the above picture is a jaguar or leopard with melanism (black panther) and as you can see it has faint markings. thought id take the opportunity to link this suggestion which suggests faint markings for melanistic creatures https://strayfawnstudio.com/community/index.php?/topic/4753-melanism-has-faint-patterns/ Another baby-related suggestion I posted:1 point

Greetings. I am dai, from,,, where am i from?? I do not remember. What you are doing is wrong, Point blank. Some creatures cannot gather berries, and for them hunting is the only way to survive. Besides, some other creatures may be allergic to berries, or it could be that there are only toxic berries on the island. Also, if you let the bunnels do what they want, the nichelings will eventually starve, since the rabbils have taken the food. You are not the one to decide other nichelings' eating habits, and are no better than those filthy defender bears, attacking babies. Consider this a wake-up call. - Dai1 point

While waiting for everyone to grow up, Grandmother encounters two new nichelings, and decides to care for them (Is anybody surprised at this point?) Their names are Thooldi and Kreepho. Yeah, I know were almost out of food, but they're super interesting! Kreepho is the Bringer of Night and Guardian of the Moon. Thooldi is - well, I still don't know if I want to make him part of the story yet.1 point
