Carel and Wesuri


So after yesterday's adventures with Bruin legs, once I had managed to selectively breed my Norns in Halla (my side world) to all have the Bruin legs, I returned home to Hella (my main world) for a while, after letting my Norns wander around on their own for a few minutes I popped in to find two rather odd little creatures!


First of all was Carel who for some reason had a Bruin head! And Wesuri, who was the first Norn to have exactly what I was looking for! A colour mutation!


I exported both and then popped back over to Halla, where I exported all of the male Norns in their tribe to give my mutants more of a chance. I imported Wesuri first, and he impregnated one of the females almost immediately, but I noticed an issue, whenever he moved, Wesuri held his hands up in the air, it could have been just a gait issue, but I'm fairly certain this is a sign something wasn't quite right with him. 


Before I had a chance to check him out with the hoverdoc he suddenly dropped dead. His baby hatched and does not seem to have picked up his colouring, which was hugely disappointing to me.
I then took the step of importing Carel, who as I'm typing this seems to be having a whale of a time with his harem. I am again selectively breeding, this time I'm breeding in the Bruin heads and legs, and exporting any children who only have the heads or legs.
Strangely when I checked out Carel's family tree, he appears to have the same mother as the other Norn that spontaneously had Bruin legs for no reason, which would suggest that for some reason the game was reading her as being a Bruin, I'm not sure why as she was definitely a Bengal! 
Hopefully another colour mutation will happen soon as I'm somewhat disappointed I wasn't able to breed some green Norns.

Had a bit of a crash on my laptop so it's away being repaired for the next week, while that's all going on I've fired up an old laptop and thought I'd have fun with a different Norn breed. On this one I'm breeding the ever so cute, Zebra Norns. I guess I have a thing for stripes.

Bringing It All Back Home

I've not had a whole lot to tell of late, I've managed to get stable populations of the Bruingal mutants, the Grengals (whose females are all a nice purple), and both colour variations (Rose and Berry Bengals), although with the latter I've still not been able to get the colour mutations to pass on to any males. I've kept copies of a few purebreds of each mutation in a separate file, I might upload them somewhere at some point if I ever get any readers! I do have an absolutely huge list of exported Norns now though, so I am gradually reintroducing them to the main population over in Hella to see what the next evolutionary step is!

How This All Began

So I'm about to get very nerdy and wax lyrical over an old game series I loved as a kid and am now reobsessing over almost 20 years later. So way before I played any of The Sims games, I got a copy of Creatures 2 (the Cyberlife game, not the other one of the same name from the early 90's), it was a pretty fun game where you had to look after a gaggle of cute creatures called Norns, you started out with some eggs, you hatched them and when said Norns were about 30 minutes old, provided you'd made sure they got enough food, or had the gene that made them walk up against a wall and never turn around again causing them to constantly complain about boredom and hunger until they died, they'd be capable of breeding and then laying their own eggs, and the next generation of Norns would pick up some traits of their parents and there was a small chance of a gene mutation that could cause positive or negative effects, so for positive effects one of my favourites was colour mutat...
