A shot from the Wolfling Run I started today.

It's basically just a standard IQ Test run with the population max set at 20. The Grendels have to make their way from the Comms Room to the bottom of the Meso, going through all four of the default DS rooms. The workshop does have some limited food sources for the sake of preventing EES, however.

The Grendels themselves use a modified ChiChi Norn genome. Besides some edits to make them more grendelish, they breed faster than the Norns they're based on, have slightly edited pigment and pigment bleed genes to prevent color-destroying mutations, and have maximum mutation rates for their appearance genes.

The little hut up there is the Grendel home. Originally I had the Grendel home all the way back in the workshop to constantly test female Grendels, but the potential for failure on that was just too high and I decided it wasn't worth losing females over.

I'll probably upload individuals from this run every so often (maybe once every ten generations or so).

I was just looking at random Norns in the tribe, when I came across this.

Why does this even exist? I was just playing around with the Norn Poser when my creature struck a very odd pose.

Just thought I'd get a picture of this, before my Norns devoured it.

(Faux Shakespearian Voice):

'Round they go, the Spam Norns!
See their faces, red and blue 'midst their sweat and chatter
With their collections of eggs! Watch how they grow,
Their life flashing by with every tick!

Gaze, if you will, into their eyes.
See their pain-- do they mean it when they state 'Me friendly'?
'Me push Norn'? Do they, perchance, seek it out themselves
Or the product of haywire instincts in their furry heads?

Witness, if you can bear-- the weeping eyes of the fair maidens.
Like clockwork, they mate, they eat, they rest
Amongst the seething pile of fur and their babes' hard cradles.
Alas! What cruel Shee or Hand would subject
Such creatures to this fate? And yet they continue breathing
Producing their own bretheren by the ket
Never to experience an Albian's life!

It woooorks. :) And yeah, the Balloon Bugs now live in the jungle. xD The Ettins like pushing the Flower Seed Vendor a little bit too much, I think I should add a script which only allows the seeds to sprout when there is a little bit of space. A population cap of 30 in a range of 500 just doesn't do it. x_x

This is what happens when Norns don't learn their vocabulary entirely.

Best name choice I've ever made for a Bondi, to be honest.

Oh dear. This happened in the early stages of trying to breed a 'Manticore Norn' with a Scorpio tail, Kai head, Gargoyle wings, and Boney legs. For some reason a lot of the babies end up stillborn, with extra or missing parts, but this is the weirdest so far.

I think they mix quite well. :)

A bunch of Zoran Norns running around in Aquanornia. I noticed there didn't seem to be a lot of images of the adults, so I decided to upload this picture.

This is a fairly relaxed Wolfling Run (or maybe it's more of a Feral Run); the idea was that the Norns would have to head up to the surface for food and go down to the bottom for fruit, but as you can see they had other ideas about the fruit. Beyond that there isn't much in the way of challenge here, unless you count the Norns' own stupidity.

I made a new world for my feral run a few days ago, and the Norns have been flourishing. The old world was over 200 hours and had been running so slowly that it was almost a slideshow. Both worlds had/have an over abundance of food, and the only real danger is the IQ test when they are born. They used to have C3 breed sprites, but I edited their genome 100 or so generations back and added in some colorful C2 Norns I made a while ago. The C2 Norns sort of took over.

When they get to the 200th generation, which will only be a few days at this rate, I think I'll shove them into a seasonal migration world, or maybe split the population in to two groups and see what differences there are between them after another 50 or so generations.
