One day an egg hatched...
The Norn was paralysed it couldn't move only blink.
Can somebody tell me what this is?

Yeah. The norn was born with limited pose genes/half its brain. Therefore, it couldn't move. Best just to leave it be.

Do not upset the ugly worm, lest it be a dragon in disguise. (>oo)>

I just had one of these, actually... it's the first mutation I've seen in C3 (Only just got it... so I'm a little slow off the boat...). Has anyone examined them particularly closely? The one I had lived until adolescence before I put her down (she couldn't eat) but she seemed able to communicate at the level you'd expect of a norn you can't teach language. Poor thing, she was normal aside from that pose quirk. Dream norn descent though. Apparently that's common with those.

It's very common with Dream/Butterfly norns because they have an irregular number of extra color genes, I believe? Something in their genetics makes it likely when you cross them with other breeds they produce sliders.

I seem to recall that in their genomes, Amanora's norns have colour genes where other norns keep their brains and pose genes.

I once had a AquaNorn who had no arms or legs. Poor thing :() She died after being beaten by Grendels.

I also have written a fictional story about a slider in the writings section of the website-It's called "Cesil-A sliders diary".

I have a half dream norn and half aqua norn and this would explain a lot actually... she can't seem to go to the left, and even if I tell her to eat, she just keeps going right and saying "right"

right? sounds as when she misses some poses AND some of her brain.

I have one that is quite similar. I made a Ferral Run (like a WR just not so strict) and when I came back were all dead except a Draconian mix, an Immortal one I kept isolated and a Baby that seemed to be also immortal (an 8 hours Baby? and it "lived" in the Workshop???)

I crossbreeded this Baby with something else (forgotten what, used the Inseminator) and what came out you can see here

actually I think she's just missing part of her brain. I can walk her left but I can't tell her to go left.

aww poor norn! an immortal slider :( I would euthenaise the poor thing, but I'm guessing all of the norns that you bred in the FR were sliders... interesting...

I used all my mutants. Norns which are too strange to stay in my "normal" worlds, but also too good to send them away or kill them.
I also mixed some of my gengineared norns into it.
even some parts grendel genetic

i've had sliders before. it's sad when you have to put down one of your little ones because of a deformity.

hmm, the best is usally giving them a fast end like the Airlock or the Piranhas.

DS-only players can also use this CAOS command:

targ norn dead


this will kill the marked creature, so make sure you do not kill your favourite norn

i miss the CAOS cheat codes! they don't have those in C2. im gonna download the cheat thingies once i have internet on my computer though. it's hard as hell to teach my norns to remember to eat every couple of minutes.

I use the atomic bomb on norns that are sick beyond repair.I take them to the comms room,Inject the bomb,get them to look away (I hate them seeing me killing them),and detonate it.

But it makes much radiation. When you do it too often you have hundreds of those tennisballs flying around. I hope you don't have a slow PC like me...

Oh, yes. The description is german.

The tennis balls are the bomb's radiation. The white thing makes them visible, but is not the creator.
When you use the remove button on the agent injector to remove the Atomic Bomb, the radiation vanishes, too.
That works only one time per world! If you try that more than once, the new bombs disappear but the radiation stays!
