Cat's Cradle 2; Cat's Cradle 3

[malymin]

Got overpopulated, started from scratch. I can handle death from disease or violence, not so much getting starved to death being trapped in a crowd of 20 norns.

Deaths of the First Generation of this save:

• Tyger (Male Bengal Norn): Adolescent, 34 minutes
• Lioness (Female Hardman Norn): Adult, 48 minutes
• Sophistico (Male Siamese Norn): Adult, 3 hours 28 minutes
• Tigress (Female Bengal Norn): Old, 4 hours 5 minutes
• Lionel (Male Hardman Norn): Ancient/Dead, 4 hours 38 minutes

Deaths of the Second Generation:

• Liger (Tigress x Lionel): Adolescent, 28 minutes
• Lynxie (Sassy x Lionel): Adult, 1 hour 52 minutes

I think I will export the remaining Norns (Sassy, Bobbie, and Catila) and begin a new save:

• Sassy (Female Siamese Norn): Ancient, 4 hours 53 minutes
• Bobbie (Tigress x Lionel): Adolescent, 2 hours 40 minutes
• Calita (Tigress x Lionel): Adult, 1 hour 59 minutes

Sassy developed a tic of holding her hand against her face while she walks, and I wonder if it was a chronic symptom of some disease or injury. Many of my norns got exposed to bacteria, which tend to fill creature bodies with nasty toxins that attack (or even permanently kill) their organs.

And Calita, I noticed, developed a limp as a youth after defending herself from an attack by a Grendel while at the "youth" age stage. I'm not sure if it's more from the injury or from the muscle toxin that entered her system.

Calita's only color mutation is a relatively subtle one (132 red instead of 128) but I like her appearance. With a bengal tail and arms, and hardman everything else, she's got a pleasant mix of gold and orange on her.

EDIT:

Deaths:

• Sassy: Ancient/Dead, 5 hours and 39 minutes.
• Bobbie: Adolescent, 3 hours and 32 minutes.

(Bobbie died to grendels just outside the Meso...)

Exported Calita until the new babies grow up. They're siamese norns, named Amabella and Arved.
