Creating Southern Newbie Wildlife

[musashi]

Done.

Just another reason why you rock 

[jcljules]

So wait, are the new critters the ones that Voular submitted? Or something entirely different?

If I told you, there would be less of a chance that you'd die to one.

'cause I can:

FIND OUT IC.

[musashi]

Arrrg!!! God you're a bitch Tis!


But you know, I mean that in the best possible way

Are they in the Docs? Is there a good IC reason why a PC born and raised in the area would be like WTF! is that?

[The7DeadlyVenomz]

...Is there a good IC reason why a PC born and raised in the area would be like WTF! is that (animal)?

This is a good question. I was talking to another player about that very caveat, and they mentioned how large the desert is, and the possibility that whatever is out there may have migrated. In any case, I would like to see if Staff has a stance.

Are they in the Docs?

Yes.  Every creature that was put in is documented.

Is there a good IC reason why a PC born and raised in the area would be like WTF! is that?

No.  The creatures used are relatively common, though varied.  People in the south are used to seeing yellow-bellied sapsuckers, per se, and now are seeing the introduction of blue-bellied sapsuckers.  Migration or mutation would be a likely reason.

Kewl!

Thanks, Shal.

[Shalooonsh]

Thanks, Shal.

You are quite welcome.  It was my pleasure.

But... Where ARE the docs?

[FantasyWriter]

But... Where ARE the docs?

Help files ---> Animal Life

[The7DeadlyVenomz]

There's nothing new in there.

Perhaps the new creatures are just variations on existing creatures?

There are also several known creatures missing. Like kylori. Or Ritikititititiititititit.

Eh ... yes, that is what I meant.

[FantasyWriter]

My bad.. I thought you were actually asking.

[Malken]

Oooh, I'll finally be able to play a southern hunter in the south! 

No more Malken's Three Steps To Playing A Southern Hunter:

1) Create Character And Point Allanak.
2) Move To Tuluk for Years Until You Can Hunt Decently.
3) Move Back To Allanak And Start Playing Character.

Or even "Learn to Run Away Until You Can Hund Decently"
But I'm anxious to see how things differ now.

If I plan on making a ranger, who, by definition, is often a hunter (often a loner, as well), it's not to be a warrior wannabe in a mercenary clan, really.

But yes, do please take my posts with a pinch of humor!

[Voular]

Not to derail, but there are a lot of common animals not listed in the help files, anywhere obvious at least! Someone fix it. I demand it >_>.

Did you know YOU can fix it, or help to?

That's right, YOU.

Otherwise, you could politely ask BEG AND GROVEL to the imms, and they might do it. After charging you a hefty fee of 'sid and stealing your pants.

Which they will wear on their heads.

[Medena]

Some faint memory stirs of the question of why not every animal was in the documentation coming up before.  As I recall, the staff said it was by deliberate design and not a matter of neglect.
