[skinstealer]

there would definitely be critters that live outside in the wilds! it's just a lot more dangerous

[skinstealer]

THREE HOURS LATER WE HAVE AT LEAST ONE CRITTER FOR EVERY SYSTEM MEMBER okay now we're deliberating whether to give them edits now or save it for another time, either way we want to start filling in a hoard

gonna be working today but down to discuss things in this thread in between twine chunks- i will be setting up threads as soon as this twine is handled so if you have any last minute suggestions get them in now (though dont expect me to take all of them, i have a pretty good idea in mind for what i want and while that's malleable, i have a structure planned)

[skinstealer]

having fun making little profiles...they're very barebones characters so far but we're hoping we can expand them over time

[Pichi2214]

i love seeing them!! its nice looking at forum bot and noticing there's another creacher to look at and read about, even if its minimal

[skinstealer]

i'm glad it's not annoying, at least! we have a lot of these to get through but we're trying to pace ourselves with em (working on twine stuff and then doing these in between helps)

[Pichi2214]

they'd never be annoying!! and i mean... the forums are for posting, it'd be a lil silly to be annoyed that posts are happening

[skinstealer]

okay! done with work for today, got critter -> petz conversion thread up

gonna go ahead and get back to making little profiles then

[skinstealer]

okay! i think it's time to start putting threads together, i have injured myself by accident yesterday so i am taking a break from doing heavy work and focusing on this instead! hopefully by the end of the day we will Have Stuff To Do

[Pichi2214]

oh no! re injury

excited for this all being set up though

[skinstealer]

i am Considering having a very very brief + simple "trait guide" to critters for this RP- nothing as detailed as the TCPdex and a lot more fluid, something like

BIGEYE
-glows in the dark
-excellent vision
-slow moving

3 little facts that give you some idea of the species' physical/magical abilities??? everything else would be loose and these would be suggestions instead of limitations, what do people think

[Pichi2214]

:O i think that'd be neat

also fun for the eventual wiki page(s)

[AceOfNothing]

Oooh love that

I have to catch up on things, sorry busy busy week, but I'm really hype that we are getting closer to starting

[skinstealer]

como is helping

[Pichi2214]

oh my GOSH.....
i too am healed by mud

[AceOfNothing]

Beautiful wonderful 10000% agree

[Pichi2214]

on on the topic of traits: those are probably a good space to put the "can shoop into their tiny shell" thing for tipsyturvy

[skinstealer]

thresh here! we're still neck deep in development for this, but have a look at our (probably incomprehensible) notes forrrrr

our system's shop/market threads so far:


and some features you'll be able to interact with at the beach thread!

[Wilds]

OUGH I'm so excited about some of these... really curious to know what Hyde's lab will be like + also what some of the baked goods would be like! i love food designs for worldbuilds--

[skinstealer]

the lab is where you'll be able to sign up your critters for mysterious experiments...we're still figuring out the nature of them, but we're thinking it'll be an interesting way to get your critter modified/edited- with a surprise element!
