I will roll a random number generator from 1-20 in order to determine which island will be our starting island. Aaaand it is (drumroll please)...19. So uuh let me go check this means Killer Islands, specifically Frost Lands. So that is uh. A start. Definitely one of the starting islands ever.

As I suffered during exam season, specifically when I read my genetics textbook I kept thinking about how badly I would like to do a blind genetics playthrough of Niche. And now that my exams are finally over (since friday!!) I can finally do it! Time to try out the Whims of Fate for myself! Here are all the rules again, just in case someone needs a refresher (or, if I abandon this playthrough and return to it in a few weeks/months/year so future me can catch up): Blind Gene mode is on For each generation a tribe leader is picked and a number is rolled from 2-20. Throughout the tribe leader's life, that is the maximum number of nichelings allowed in the tribe. When the leader dies a new leader is picked and the tribe size is rerolled. If it is smaller than before, nichelings must be banished to reach the correct amount. Upon reaching a new island, a random number is rolled to determine which port the tribe may use is they wish to leave the island. No other ports may be used. Every Nicheling gets one mutation randomly assigned by this generator: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/214535915/

Another strange cub has been born... And Donpriah has grown up to be immensely handsome!

One of the slayers seems particularly interested in him and offers that he may tag along.

Donpriah's mother has passed on, leaving him all alone. He doesn't truly belong to either of the tribes. Meanwhile, Niorizen has found a mate. It is only their relationship that protects Donzena from being slain. Donpriah has a run-in with a group of slayers. Neither side seems to know how to react at first. It is his bearyena paw as well as his smell that make the slayer's recognize him as part of the tribe.

A strange-looking cub has been born on the outskirts of the island.

Goodbye Pimi

Intruder!

These berry bushed are hard-earned territory.

It is to be expected that some forbidden relations will crop up

Carnage

Also, here's Pimi's second daughter.

Also these three are our new breeding pair/triple. Two of them are already poisonous, so everyone else will star attacking now.

Look at this cute baby!

Pimi has made a friend! In case you are wondering, Pimi is allowed to have kids with members of the original Home Island Tribe. Ape-slayer descendants, however, are not.

Not to worry we're fast adapters.

Time to attack

The message makes this very heartbreaking...On the other hand I have been here twice before so...

Aaaand here we go!

This time I had to breed both pairs about three times in order to get two more breeding pairs. Funnily enough both of these new pairs resulted from the two mates on the right.

JACKPOT

Time to leave!

Aww she's adorable!
