    A wanderer has been invited in and had a child.

    Good luck and don't flood the island with babies /hj

    Also can I put the bold sentence into the little to no context thread? It's hillarious

    Halkrath and Kuta weren't hoing to have more kids, but since they are going to anyway, name the kids after a Persona 4 character (why? Because)

    And a challenge for you! No more than 3 kids per pair, no breeding until the baby opens its eyes ;D

    Three kids per pair! Proposterous numbers!

    I didn't know Halkrath and Kuta were not supposed to have any more...nobody told me. Is there a story-wise reason? I was breeding them because she's the only fully winged creature and is going to die fairly quickly, but if you had already decided they weren't I will not breed them again. I don't know what Persona 4 is, but just suggest a few names from it and I'll be happy to name the child after it.

    I guess I could not breed the baby until it opens it's eyes but wouldn't that be worse since they can see what's going on? That is a reasonable request. I think I'll do baby numbers on a case-by-case basis based on the pair's history, personality, genes, and age. Some pairs it may make more sense, storywise and strategically, to breed more, where-as others may only need to have one child to get their genes through and probably wouldn't want another. It is my predisposition to breed everyone, though I will generally breed those who have had less children already or who have not passed on a specific gene. I think that's why I bred Lurk and Yosuke so much, I was trying to get that darned scorpian tail in the family, and I failed unfortunately. 

    But if you all want me to limit the babies I shall have to try for the good of the challenge. We can set a baby limit if everyone wants to, or we can let it be more flexible and based on the circumstances.

    In other news, how would everyone feel about going to another island soon? @Modiano @SafiraCoyfolf @Mothpool

  3. Part 1 of my second turn: Young Hunters (days 88-89)
    20210614174849_1.thumb.jpg.0b3ca7fd99095a189cbbc47f7f05378a.jpg

    Lenlen and Kuku have killed something in Modiano's turn which I take upon myself to pick up and collect the meat from.

    20210614175122_1.thumb.jpg.0c2f7e8b1a9923e42baf294ed8e5939c.jpg
    Then, an unfortunate rabbil shows up and Lenlen and Kuku kill it as well. The two have become friends and quite the hunting pair.

    20210614175206_1.thumb.jpg.552010fc62d06a417c1f06beea146756.jpg
    Retare and Moaroara pick plants from the sticky fruit tree, which appears to be their assigned task.

    20210614175254_1.thumb.jpg.1697d14a700ec682d12d3f0ec0b876a8.jpgUirom and Bhu'ja mate. (I'm already flooding the island with babies, I apologize Modiano). At least a berry bush obscures the view of their child Kali (who is so cute btw!) 

    20210614175621_1.thumb.jpg.16276297fda9f04ac73283a7a1f4b776.jpg
    I panic as I realize Kali has no-one to protect them. I zoom out to see the bluebird, all the way on the other side of the island, but there none-the-less. So, after checking Chisel's relations to the couple to be sure it makes sense, I rush Auntie Chisel down to protect the baby. She warns the young parents of the dangers of the bird.

    20210614180304_1.thumb.jpg.41cdb7af96a4fb5d920a6b51bf1a08f8.jpg
    I figure Memela, Pridukir, Quin, Than-guan and their children are migrating together to the penninsula adjacent to the port since they looked to be in that direction. I continue the migration, but I have Rufus leave the group in search of his brother after realizing him and Swan may be an ideal pairing to get purr-snout in the family. Pridukir leaves his mate's side, making her mildly annoyed at his delaying the migration, to invite his elder and lonely sister Makiia along.

    20210614180424_1.thumb.jpg.e1b1ce368273f3db9cb79f5e48ef6ca1.jpg
    Not being the best group of fighters and having rescued Garnet, the group being attacked by the bearyena flees in hopes that it will follow them towards more and better fighters who then can help to fight it with minimal injury.

    20210614180622_1.thumb.jpg.3bae95612f75e2b8bee9ff3215c7a310.jpg

    Halkrath flies over to Pridukkir to ask for his help in fighting the bearyena. She then flies over to Bhu'ja and Uirom to ask for the help of their family. 


    20210614180655_1.thumb.jpg.25333aec57a87982885535c9373a3512.jpg

    Kappa tries to fish a razorona or clown koi, but fails both times.

     

    20210614180931_1.thumb.jpg.5aaece2796d122d8a06d82f4758747d6.jpg

    The bearyena has dissapeared without a trace. Apparently us running away was a smart move, as it found better prey. With no immediate threat, the nichelings decide it isn't worth it to go searching for the bearyena.

     

    20210614181418_1.thumb.jpg.8ff1389cdc2a04a8c8aeb2fcb619e7d2.jpg

    Halkwrath flies up to make sure the bearyena really is gone, and her mate comes to assist her. They do not hear or smell the bearyena. It is back to life as usual. Bear and Chisel breed for the last time, preparing for their final child.

     

    20210614181603_1.thumb.jpg.55474c1894e6c141d237293d14ba21c5.jpg

    Kappa decides to go for some regular fish instead, and easily suceeds.

    20210614181720_1.thumb.jpg.302ff7c8d5472f23b62aec613e731808.jpg

    Memela makes her way into the penninsula, heading towards the swampy terrain. Makiia leaves her berry bush to join the group.

    20210614181902_1.thumb.jpg.67b45083ba9e480cfed93320065fda9f.jpg

    Memela claws at the swamp thorns, she succeeds in destroying them, but scratches herself up in the process. She takes quite a bit of damage. Than-guan peers uneasily into the swamp, unnerved by Memela getting hurt and by the dark colors.

     

    20210614181947_1.thumb.jpg.c58845f6e84ccdbe433ac99ba2f9bc53.jpg

    Memela clears a path and Quinn goes through to check it out, finding that there is familiar green grass on the other side. This reassures Than-guan, and she greatfully yet cautiously follows her mate into the penninsula.

    20210614182006_1.thumb.jpg.4f5141dcb998658a29373bea52345cd0.jpg

    Kuta convinces Halkwrath not to worry about the bearyena and they prepare to have another child. Garnet comes to the berry bush hoping to be useful, but finds it empty. Halkwrath tells him he wouldn't be able to pick them anyways with the paws he has, but that she can't either and that is just fine. She explains that his paws would be ideal for hunting, and she decides to take him on a hunting trip.

    20210614182111_1.thumb.jpg.4bd738b11ef74b44bc57ba626031cf1e.jpg

    Halkwrath tries to grab a rabbil from the sky as Garnet comes down to watch, but it escapes her grasp as she doesn't have the strength to kill it easily. She tries again, still without success. Garnet isn't discouraged though, he watches his new mentor carefully. Pridukkir had already caught a rabbit earlier that turn, and was probably telling Garnet about how to hunt also.

    End of part 1
    Let me know if I mixed any characters up or made any other mistakes!

    There's been a few births, bearyena invasions (Ruby and Uino were killed, their son survived because one of the friendly bearyena attacked it).

    Also any story/character challenges? And we should make a family tree for this so we all know who is related to which starter and for bios (Haven't opened up the savefile yet so it may be apparent for now and I wouldn't know but in the future this may be important)

    Thanks Modiano, I may start my turn today or might wait till later in the week but I should be done with it by the end of the week! I didn't expect it to be my turn again so quick since it took a long pause but once it got passed to Safira they did their turn fairly quickly and yours was like lightning fast lol.

  7. So the #4 poll ended in yet another tie, and you know what that means! Run-off time!
    Original poll:

    Original topic:

    The third question is related to the first question in the #4 poll, which wasn't tied but I wanted to delve deeper into it. It is possible for multiple reasons from the third question to be chosen, as long as they are not in contradiction.

    The Curse of the Cold

    20210613122405_1.thumb.jpg.6aaf3e585a1264be91d6101c0ace5c04.jpg

    Fire Jade sat in the hotsprings, steaming water coiling around her nose as she slumped in the heat.

    Although she would never admit it to anyone, every day she sat in the hotsprings, she was simply hoping that out there, her family was coming home, back to her, back to save her from the tundras. All her life, she had been told to be tough and act strong. Did her attempt to do that so long ago, as a child, cause all this?

    The first few days, she knew they were fighting off a balance bear. So she didn't worry.

    Then she began hoping they were done now, returning to help her.

    Afterwards, she started getting doubts, but stayed optimistic.

    But by now, she knew they had forgotten about her. There was no denying that nobody had ever cared about her.

    20210613122423_1.thumb.jpg.be3df392367c56de4adb952dd0d2c8e4.jpg

    Fire Jade slept in the calming bubble of the hotsprings. She had stayed here for her family and for fear of the dangers of the mountain.

    She then had a dream. She saw the skies from above, she bore the wings of a dragon, and she feared nothing. She had faced her fear and had embraced her destiny.

    Fire Jade thought for a long time.

    And soon, she came to a conclusion of what she had to do.

    When Fire Jade awoke, she was a new nicheling.

    She was now Dragonfruit. And she was determined to be remembered.

     

    20210613122940_1.thumb.jpg.6699c85ffa8cbefad43170c5d7090604.jpg

    Hurricane had failed.

    She had only wanted to be Parrot's mate, the second she saw him.

    Sure, she had been his mate, but she was too late.

    Every single second of his disappearance, Hurricane just wanted to know if Parrot was okay. She needed to save him, after all.

    She told herself she would.

    But now, as she rose into the Constellation, she realized it would have been too late anyways.

    Acidic poison ate away at her hope quickly.

    Pomegranate would need to go on without her.

     

    20210613123120_1.thumb.jpg.503c67956955766d237807fdcdf547bb.jpg

    Arctic was fighting off the balance bear.

    Their Empire had been split by the bear. And as they looked back, they saw Fire Opal's newest child.

    Fire Opal turned away from it: "We'll leave it here until we can get back. It can stay in the hotsprings there."

    Onion's face showed emotion for the first time; a glimpse of guilt. But it faded away. Arctic wondered what he was hiding.

    Fire Ruby also looked uncomfortably towards the child, but less so. Arctic felt an urge to ask the two what had happened, but they resisted.

     

    20210613123241_1.thumb.jpg.8a1ad8567323eab3daf9d1d277fb00b5.jpg

    Pomegranate stayed back to mourn his mother for a day as the rest of the group searched.

    Without words, Evergreen had become the temporary leader. In the distance, he heard her, Rowan, and Fearless arguing about how to punish Mud and Laika. Evergreen was stubborn about having Emu and Firecracker punish them, but the siblings insisted that they should be killed now.

    Pomegranate knew exactly how they were feeling, as he had felt it his entire life;

    My parents are dead, no matter what everyone says. They can't accept it, and they baby me because I'm still a child and they think I'm an idiot.

    But I'm not. The more they tell me things are fine. The more they aren't.

     

    20210613123539_1.thumb.jpg.516521b319336d219ce2937423c9150e.jpg

    As Arctic fought on, they heard a shriek of terror from behind them. They turned, and saw a hawk carrying away the newborn child. They felt a strong wave of guilty sadness, a potential life lost once more.

    Onion's face turned into shock, and Fire Ruby exchanged a terrified glance with him.

    They're hiding something.. related to a child dying.

    And from what I can tell, the more you hurt others, the more vicious they are in vengeance.

     

    20210613123558_1.thumb.jpg.c8f116a6a3b410d2015bc704d276e4c8.jpg

    Firecracker pulled aside Tiger's Eye.

    Firecracker: "Listen. You have venom, correct?"

    Tiger's Eye nodded slowly: "Why..?"

    Firecracker suddenly grabbed a clover wrap around her upper arm. Tiger's Eye saw a horrible dent, stuffed with clover, which was pulled out to reveal a black-blood combination along the edges of the scar.

    Firecracker: "This is a venom wound. I was bitten and thrown into the sea by one of your kind. The wound froze up, stopping the poison. When Alecto was born, I made her burn out as much as possible, and I'm going to get healed by your purr snout."

    Tiger's Eye couldn't process all this, and eventually said: "There's.. another nicheling with poison here?"

    Firecracker nodded: "She's also immune to it."

    Tiger's Eye exhaled with relief. The pressure to use her 'gift' was lifted quite a bit with this news.

    Firecracker: "But listen. She's taken over the Frozens. Almost everyone supports her."

    Tiger's relief vanished quicker than it had come. Did that mean-

    Firecracker: "You're going to have to kill them, every last one."

    You will bring death to this island, one nicheling at a time.

    (I hope Tiger's Eye can use her gift to eleminate Evergreen without becoming a monster herself. These are some very important developements. Poor Hurricane, at least she and Parrot had a child before they died. I wonder what Pomegranite will end up doing)
