Jane had another egg and I was finally able to sit down and get to know everyone again. After playing so much Creatures 1, it was hard to believe that these guys were 3 hours old and would probably only live for another 2 to 3 hours.

Jane became pregnant again during my efforts to get Susan pregnant but, alas, I didn’t have the same luck with her. Still, there are 9 eggs in the world, now.

bandicam 2015-01-03 15-37-09-627 copyOur star traveller, William was still playing with the portals and exploring the entire ship but Geoffrey followed suit. Even Percy seemed interested in the portals before long and the boys were all spread out. Then, they managed to gather in the desert where they parted again. Oh well. They can’t seem to make up their minds about their destination.

The two girls spent their time in the meso, though. They seemed most interested in staying put a while and relaxing. Jane in particular didn’t seem to want to budge and got settled in the Meso, near the Comfort Candle and Bread Basket.

bandicam 2015-01-03 15-46-41-901 copyNothing of note happened for a long time, so I decided to hatch a gen 1 female to make up for our earlier loss. This time, I hatched a female Sphinx norn, who I’ve named Priscilla. I hadn’t played with many non-official breeds and was curious to see what mixes would come of her.

Having a new baby on my hands didn’t have me as busy as I’d hoped, though. Gathering all the norns in the Norn Terrarium and allowing them to mingle did have me on edge – would Susan finally get pregnant? No, but Jane did manage to get pregnant again.

bandicam 2015-01-03 15-55-29-389 copyThis meant 10 eggs from our group, which was promising. I was hoping to get the trade world concept spread out and 10 eggs felt like a good start.

Still, the group was getting older, so it seemed like I wouldn’t be getting more eggs after all.bandicam 2015-01-03 16-03-55-863 copyPercy and William looked like they could squeeze in a few more eggs, but the odds weren’t great given Priscilla’s youth. Oh well, I suppose.

When I left off, everyone was roughly 2 and a half hours old and we had a good 5 eggs in storage. I’d turned on Hands Off! and was doing… something. I don’t quite remember.

A quick check up on each of the creatures would normally have been enough to get me caught up, but I felt I needed more time. To help clear up any confusion, I exported the three grendels and checked on our 5 norns.

bandicam 2015-01-03 14-15-21-575 copyFirst was Jane, who’d become pregnant with Percy’s egg just as her photo was taken.

She’s the pretty Gen 1 Astro girl that Ghost_Norn sent me for our trade. If I remember correctly, she’s also the most popular mother right now.

Between you and me, I hope she brings some much-needed variety into the next generation. 😉

bandicam 2015-01-03 14-38-52-614 copySusan is our other female. She did have a sister but, unfortunately, that sister passed away. Anyway, she’s got the Harlequin arms that I love so much and she’s got Treehugger, Magma and a Harlequin head to match those cute arms.

She hasn’t been popular amongst the boys and she’s actually isolated herself near the Shee Ark’s workshop area.

bandicam 2015-01-03 14-41-59-166 copyThen, we have the first of the three brothers, Percy. He’s taken a shine to Jane, who he impregnated at the beginning of this update.

He and his brothers all have similar genetics, so it’ll be interesting to see how they each get along with the two girls. Like his brothers, he often needs to be reminded to eat.

bandicam 2015-01-03 14-44-42-238 copyThe next brother is William, who I can’t seem to get a good picture of. He’s developed some kind of wanderlust and can’t stay put for very long at a time right now. He’s really enjoying those Offline Portals that Grendel Man made.

He’s already fathered a few eggs but nothing else seems to stand out in my memory.

bandicam 2015-01-03 14-47-03-781 copyLastly, there’s Geoffrey. He’s a lot like his brothers so it’s hard to remember anything that really stands out about him.

I do seem to remember that of the three, he has the hardest time remembering to eat and is the most stubborn when it comes time to.

And with that, Percy and Jane got pregnant again. Never let it be said that Norns are difficult to breed! Except for Susan, anyway. I’ve been trying with limited success to get her to breed. When William appeared through an offline portal, I snatched the opportunity and…! Well, I failed. Maybe next time.

Please ignore this! I’m just posting this to ensure the download is still available whilst I do my minor revamp.

CFE Gizmo Norns

This genome comes in two versions. First, is the CFE Gizmo version. This version includes all of the CFE edits and Gizmo instinct and biochemical edits. This version, however, does not include the changes to the reproductive system and lifespan that come with the Gizmo version.

The CFE Gizmo Full version does, however, come with the reproductive and lifespan edits in the Gizmo version and should only live about 5 hours.

Both versions include a gene that I add that causes Inhibin to reduce Testosterone. This is what the chemical was intended for but was never used.

Untitled-1CFE Gizmo Norns – Updated

Vampess’s Creatures Full of Edits update meets Darcy’s Gizmo update!

I am in no way responsible for the development of either of these sets of updates – all I’ve done was combine them together.

Unlike my previous release, this one comes in only one flavor – CFE with all of the Gizmo changes. Mutations can still occur to the life genes in this version but the chances are greatly reduced.

bandicam 2014-12-05 23-19-34-152 copyIt shouldn’t come as a surprise by now that Boshi, another of mea’s zombie creatures, turned out to have half of her genes missing! I suspect her “if energy reaches zero, die” gene is also missing.

Goodness gracious. Unlike the other girls who prefer hitting and pushing things, though, her quirk is that she spends a lot of time sleeping.

Beside her floating head, she’s awful cute though, right?

bandicam 2014-12-06 14-26-31-825 copyBupyofupyo has the very same issue as Boshi and Bihia but she has about 100 more genes intact.

A peek at her drives shows that had a load of sleepiness like the other girls but reducing the sleepiness with CAOS and then watching her rest showed that resting still produced boredom and sleepiness like in regular norns.

Introducing a toy fixed the problem but this caused her to become obsessed with them. She would be a very playful norn if she learned pushing norns reduced boredom.
