C2 norn IQ testing

I'm trying to figure out an IQ test for C2, so I can compare OHSS norns with some of the fixed genomes (Canny, Nova Subterra, etc) and quantify the differences between them.

So, for those of you who play C2 - what are some signs of a smart C2 norn? What kinds of situations would really show a C2 norns' intelligence well?


By the way, I don't care if anyone steals my ideas for their own work, as long as you don't try to stop me from making my own stuff. Many ideas I mention are things I don't have the time or skill to actually do.

well ive only recently started playing C2 and i still get dumb norns with a fixed genome so one of the signs of a smart norn is it eats food by itself, when it gets tired enough it sleeps and it learns from its mistakes

Learning from its mistakes is the big one, and this directly relates to eating, sleeping etc. since you can actually teach them that those things are good to do.

C2 norns are much more dependent on learning than C3/DS norns. The C3/DS IQ test really only tests their instincts, not their intelligence as such. Something to keep in mind...

I had an idea, based on watching my ettins starve to death - hatching a norn by the ettin egglayer and seeing if they can survive to adulthood wandering around the swamp and volcano. There is fruit and edible bugs there, so a clever norn should learn to eat those and leave the poisonous mushrooms alone. Now, to see if enough norns are smart enough to make it a meaningful test...

Might wanna be careful with letting them inside the volcano, it's radioactive and bad for them, and there's nothing they can do to prevent it.
