Otters

Post by DaniAngione »

Haven is a good game but it could be a great game if it had Otters.
After all, what is an online game if you don't interact with otters? :lol: ... :roll: Ok. Sorry.

Anyway, I'm suggesting this because otters:

Could be a new "pickable" (no combat) critter;
But slightly difficult to get like... water rabbits.
Maybe they could bite a bit or such (wounds like crabs/hedgehogs) -- or worst case scenario, fight as well (around the same strength of swans, I guess)

Could have its own meat, possibly sausages with pun-y names (Like "Frankfotter") and maybe some sort of SCARF (with the whole hide) and be the first/only gildable face slot (the one for mask, talisman, glasses...) how about it?

Finally, if you are lucky enough to see two otters spawning next to each other, they could randomly reach and hold hands.
Witnessing that could be a new Experience Event! (Called... "Significant Otter" Hah! Great, right?)

Otters, please? :roll: :oops:

In Norse mythology, Ótr (alternately: Ott, Oter, Otr, Ottar, Ottarr, Otter) is a dwarf. He is the son of the king Hreidmar and the brother of Fafnir and Regin.
According to the Prose Edda, he could change into any form, and used to spend his days in the shape of an otter, greedily eating fish. Ótr was slain accidentally by Loki, who wanted to keep his pelt. Hreidmar demanded a large weregild for Ótr's death, namely to fill Ótr's skin with yellow gold, and to then cover it entirely with red gold. When the skin was covered, one whisker was still protruding, forcing Loki to give up the ring Andvarinaut to hide it. The ring had been stolen from, and cursed by, the fish-dwarf Andvari. It is suggested that this story was meant to show the benefits of not only adhering to the letter of the law (repayment for manslaughter) but sticking to the spirit of the law as well (demanding an exorbitant ransom). Greed for this cursed treasure ultimately caused the deaths of Hreidmar and his two surviving sons: Hreidmar was killed by Fafnir, who transformed into a dragon, and the other two were slain by Sigurd's sword Gram

started to look up otters and found this and gave up farther looking into it, mabye a troll type in power creature can hide in the very rare otter and pop up when disturbed (fishing around him, atking him or near by otters) and atk

or a rare pelt
