Current small time problem: Cactus Control. They love the bottom of the elevator shaft , and they multiply rapidly.

This is a round terrarium like garden that is found beneath the beach area of the volcanic island. In it, you can see the venus fly trap to the right of the lift, and a seed launcher to the left. (ps. AmariDeja -- is that you I see floating up there? I think it is! J )

This page is only a small attempt to provide some basic C2 info. Please take advantage of the great resource we have in the newsgroup called "alt.games.creatures". You will find your best tips there.

They are cuter than tamagotchi and less smelly than hamsters. I'm fascinated by the idea of training them, it's challenging, since they have will and they do what they want to do, when they want to do it. You realize that punishment and reward only go so far -- norns (and humans, really) are impelled by such personal things, and you can't tickle or slap enough to get one away from something they are bound to do (a good lesson for life in general.) I like having a game where there is little to no violence.

If I have a beef with the folks who developed this game, it's that they keep on trying to design a "bad species". In real-life, there are no "bad species", just species that interfere with each other, although I'm not sure I really want that element in Creatures (for instance if Grendels were predator and norns were prey, we'd be finding little norn bones and skulls all over Albia...eeewww! yuck!) I'd like my game world to have a potential for everyone to get along on equal terms that seems so hard to establish here in the real world..

Albia has many different natural environments. Some are lush with edible foods and plants.
There are charming hidden gardens everywhere, waiting to be discovered.

A norn cannot survive by fruit and food alone, every norn needs adventure, Polly seems to be trying to tell us as we take a look at a thriving shelf garden hidden deep within New Albia.

New Albia's answer to Niagara Falls.
The volcanic event that changes the face of Albia created marvelous natural vistas for everyone to enjoy.

There are two ways to approach this observation balcony: use the transporter or take the lifts up from Ettin's Garden.

(Above Right) Polly realizes that she is tired now that we have entered the calming influence of the forest. Many plants and critters make their home here.

Let's take the show back now to our special guest, Ean Gilliam, who is waiting for us at the Hatchery.
The Hatchery environment has been improved with flowers and toys.

The proceeds from Ean's impromptu concert at the Hatchery will be donated to ERFE.

That's all for our tour today! Come back soon to see Rozi O'Doozer and Leonard Nornoy go through the Control Room the Splicing Room, and find out about the mystery behind Grendel Eggs.

Here's my list of sites with C1/C2 relevant info - that is, I stop by most of these sites just about every day. With all the Creatures sites out there, searching for C2 info is a real chore at this point. My advice is to stay tuned to the newsgroup alt.games.creatures. Check out everyone's sigs for links to great sites.

Daughter of Frimlin's Kermit and a Lis Morris norn.

I almost renamed Bliss "Liz" for "Elizabeth Taylor". Look at her pretty violet eyes! They say you can't breed norns for eye color. So I offer her up as a newly hatched baby, familiar with all words, so her violet beamers and golden corkscrew curls can delight you, too. Okay eater. Likes troffid.

 Bira should be called "Erin", but she's only a 2^nd gen. She'll eat on her own, and can be coaxed to play with toys -- but beware! She can "push" things from a distance. (Please note: this is a norn with 'tude. It was hard to get a smiley picture of her! She taps her foot and hops up and down -- she looks like she's auditioning for Riverdance.)

She is so playful, and she loves her toys. She likes to play with the ball, so make sure she can get to it. So-so eater. Like Mom, she loves the Zander fish.
