Hey all!
Christmas is nearly upon us and to celebrate, I'd like to start a very, merry Christmas C12DS Wolfling Run!
What is it?
It will be a relaxed Wolfling Run, in a barebones C1/DS (the Capillata with C1) world, with only the breeds and agents that C12DS has to offer (see the C12DS CWiki Article). It'll also include the C12DS Christmas Pack, for that essential Christmassy feel, and the C3-in-DS Crypt, so that I can keep track of any deaths.
How will it be played?
The run will be played in teams of two, starting with Norns (M & F) of the same breed, per player. Each player can pick from the teams available (see below) and then their chosen team will be represented in the run by their CC.com username. For example, if AquaShee chose 'Team Banana Norn', the Norns in that team would be named 'AquaShee M' and 'AquaShee F'.
I thought this would be a fun twist to the run's proceedings, as each player will have their own team to root for, and everyone can compete for survival against each other!
When will it start?
This run will run for 4 days, starting on Sunday 20th December, which will lead us right upto Christmas Eve. I?ll try to update you all as much as possible on events, complete with accompanying pictures of course, here in this forum.
What else do we need to know?
Well, once everybody's been assigned their teams, each Norn will be uploaded to our Adoption section, for safekeeping. I remember all too well how I lost everyone's Norns when my ill-fated C2 Forum Feral Run crashed. Hopefully DS will be much more stable, as it has been so far!
Will there be a prize at the end?
No, I'm afraid not. The Grinch Grendel is being a grouch and won't allow such Christmas presents, but it's all about the taking part!
Awww... Well, okay, show us the teams!
* Team Banana Norn - C-Rex
* Team Pixie Norn - Ghosthande
* Team Horse Norn - scoota94
* Team Purple Mountain Norn - AquaShee
* Team Forest Norn - Arnout
* Team Ron Norn - Melody
* Team Santa Norn - Christine
* Team Dodgy Norn - Agentrok
* Team C1 Grendel - GrendelMan
Players will be assigned teams on a first come, first serve basis - once all the teams have been picked, applications will be closed!
Ho, ho, ho! |

Sure Arnout, they're all yours. 
Hehe, I'm just setting up the world in readiness for Sunday (I like to be mega-organised) and I've named it 'Christmas Town' - The Nightmare Before Christmas anyone?  |

Sure, C-Rex. 
Right now, I'm hatching out each 'team', naming them accordingly (e.g. the Norns in Ghosthande's Pixie team are called 'Ghosthan M' and 'Ghosthan F' -- sorry, Ghosthande, I couldn't fit your whole username into the field! ) and then exporting them ready for Sunday. |

Done, GrendelMan. 
I'm a bit surprised that nobody's wanted first dibs on the Santa Norns yet, with it being Christmas and all.  |

Nooo... I want to join, but I don't want to hog the games. If there's a spot left by Sunday with no takers, could you please slot me into it, Laura?

Sorry, I going on holiday this winter and I can't play Creatures so much. But there is a T-Mobile Hotspot on that camping so I'm still on the net.

If you still have internet access you can still take part and pick a team, if you would like to - the Wolfling Run will take place in my world (I'm hatching out everyone's Norns and Grendels) and I'll be updating everybody on it's progress in a forum topic.  |

Yay, we now have a full run! Don't jinx it though AS, it could be a disaster... Hehe, nah, you're right, it'll be fun whatever happens. |

Then, the norns decided to form a Utopian society based on love and respect right from the start of the run; Everything went well and nothing exciting happened at all.
Seriously though, it'll surely be lots of fun!

I've uploaded everybody's Norns (and Grendels!) to the Adoption section now; they've been split into two packs - Xmas WR (Males) and Xmas WR (Females)
The Wolfling Run starts tomorrow - fingers crossed, eh?  |

Yay! Can't wait! (hyper on tea lol) I wonder if this run will have anything inspiring for my story? By the way do wolfling runs ever have prizes and if they do what are they?

By the way, where can I download the norns and grendels?

Go to adoptions, DS, male or female,norn, and then you will either see the male pack or female pack.

Wait, meaning if I adopt a norn, I'll be able to create more of it's breed too?

Yes, though you'd have to have C12DS installed for those Norns to work, I think.
I thought it'd be nice to post them up there a keepsakes, especially since they all died in the Wolfling Run today.  |
