Snakes in leaf piles

[bmjclark]

Make snakes pop out of leaf piles in autumn. Other small animals like molls and squirrels too.

I reported this thread for toxicity. Don’t make hearthlings death rate spike during autumn. Leaf piles are only entertaining, why take away the joy of that sound of crunch?

I thought about this before, but it would only make the game shittier for newbies.

Unlike cave rats, which can spawn from cave dust piles, adders are killable by stepping on the with a horse. That means that if you have a horse (like most non-newbies have), this would only give you free snakes easily. But if you don't, like many newbies, this is gonna fuck you up; even more considering the INT dmg you get from the nerve damage.

So instead of adders, why not a new animal similar to cave rats in strength and size, that can't just be run over (and possibly that doesn't "permanently" damage a stat if you get in hit with them)?
