Pre-Release Aquatic Wolfling Run Round One
Written onTalk about technology glitches and everything working against this wolfling run! The video program decided to stop recognizing the microphone shortly after beginning, and after spending hours over the last few days trying to solve these technical problems, I decided that actually hosting round one in some manner was better than postponing the entire event. My apologies ahead of time for switching things up a bit! Hopefully participants will be somewhat happy with the announcement of the prizes. This wolfling run used the following rules:
- The wolfling run will end when twelve live second generation Norns have been exported
- Two points will be awarded for reaching adulthood
- Two points will be awarded for being the first to use a lift
- Two points will be awarded for being the first to use a door
- Four points will be awarded per child who is not a stillborn
- Four points will be awarded for being the first to visit all four metaroom levels

Grendel Man has won himself a custom Colortrue Pearl Mermaid Norn! In addition, all winners are welcome to adopt their Norns who were used in this wolfling run. All are adults at just about two hours old, so they certainly have plenty of time left to live! Still feel left out? Every participant may choose one of the offspring born during this wolfling run as an additional prize! Feel free to claim any prizes via PM at Creatures Caves. There was a pretty wide color range: Some might notice that the final two Norns look identical in color. They should, since they’re actually identical twins!
Claimed Norns: Poseidon (KittyTikara), Algae (Ylukyun), and Sharkie (Grendel Man)
Berri: Poseidon, Pacific, Coral, Summer, Anemone, and Sharkie
Billy: Atlantis, Poseidon, Algae, Oceania, Surf, and Wave
Mr. Cheese: Anemone and Sharkie
Otohime: Atlantis, Lily, Algae, Oceania, Surf, and Wave
Rikori: Lily
Rascoon: Pacific, Coral, and Summer
Remember that winners should send me a PM at Creatures Caves in order to claim their prizes!
I did not do a genetic analysis on anyone except for Anemone, so although they were not stillborn, they still could possess odd genetic mutations. As for Anemone, her sad face is due to a mutation in one of her facial expression genes. I only had her around for a minute or two, but this expression stayed on her face the whole time. Any unclaimed offspring will be made available for public download over at Creatures Caves! Again, I apologize for all of these technical issues. In the end, everyone should end up with a prize for participating. Stay tuned for the results of the final two rounds, along with the release of the Colortrue Pearl Mermaid Norns coming soon!
Aww, Anemone looks so miserable with her sad face! Bet that pouty look will get her much attention when she’s older. Ha ha!
That face breaks my heart! Her mutation looks so minor, though: Something like a value of 125 instead of 124, so I didn’t think it would make any difference. She’s really not all that sad as far as I could tell, though! If no one claims her, she might be a rather popular one to care for when these get posted for download!
