Helpful creatures

Postby jordancoles » Thu Aug 30, 2018 6:38 am

Oldschool Runescape has a roaming creature called a herbiboar which you can track, and then harvest a random assortment of herbs from its back. Mabinogi has a very similar set of creatures that serve the same purpose. It would be cool to have similar creatures in haven such as a cave lizard with mushrooms on its back, or a dryad that can be plucked for healing roots or other medical supplies.

Here is my idea for what a Haven cave creature may look like

When it dies/is harvested clean

Rather than killing these creatures for their skinned goods, I think it might be better if they were passive and would only have a chance to attack while being harvested, similar to pulling auroch hairs.

Yeah I quite like it ... I've especially always wanted the Dryad to have a purpose, a meaningful helpful one. Healing roots, higher q tree seeds, something along those lines. :)

I like fungus and fungus accessories
“We still, alas, cannot forestall it-
This dreadful ailment's heavy toll;
The spleen is what the English call it,
We call it simply, Russian soul.”

An idea to consider: Tedium, a Feature.
