This i agree on. Only con food i've found so far is apples..and pears i think it was? We have meat for Str, Agi, Int, Perception, Dexterity, Charisma but not for dexterity. Or did i miss an animal? I've read on the ring of brodgar that beef gives con, so i guess a tamed Auroch?

only pure cons food I know is apples, and ant pupae. badger and some fish give con as mixed but yeah to focusing cons at low tech seems impossibru.

Owls are already in Haven & Hearth. You cannot see them, but they are always watching.

if we get owls, we should be able to use the owl feathers for feathering our arrows. that or owl feather capes for when you have cupboards full of them

Fantastic. I love owls, and am working on becoming a specialized falconer so that I can have them, but Jesus Christ those things can be terrifying. They're really aggressive, and there's plenty of falconers that have almost lost fingers or had cut tendons because of them. Fuck yeah, Angry Owls!

An owl is a bird of prey.


Speaking of, could you do the whole food chain thing? I know that foxes kill rabbits and badgers and foxes apparently fight but bears don't seem to get in on it, maybe add wolves and have a pack vs. bears or bears attack mouflon? Sadly without the old archery/slings/boat hunting some of us are almost never gonna be able to hunt the big stuff and it would be nice to just find a corpse from time to time. (I've gotten 2 foxes. one I shot point blank with my bow and the other a badger had fucked up. I've yet to get anything bigger.

The Owls are not what they seem.

Owl's don't prey on humans, they would fight back though.

Nor, really, do ants, foxes and badgers.
