Lizards, cats and pine martens! Oh my!

Howdy!

I was wondering if felines and lizards will be added to the list of playable species, and pine martens if they are not in there already.

I also wonder, with coyotes and raccoons, what other species are in line for being added to the list as well.

Martens as a whole are in the accepted species.    If a particular animal you want to play fits into an accepted group, it is accepted. If not, feel free to suggest it.

We will definitely look into felines and lizards.  Although, if playing a reptile (once they are accepted, as they most likely will be, although I have to discuss it with my sister first), one will have to remember that they are cold-blooded and act accordingly when playing one.

If you look at the accepted species list you will see that there is a note that says that as the world expands, more species will be added to the list.  

Also, we are not limiting our selves by just having the species that are found in the Redwall books, many different species that are not in Redwall will be in our world.  

We are however limiting ourselves by size.  We are limiting the size of species to smaller animals.  A coyote is about as big we will go.

That sounds good

Does this mean that the majority of the critters here are north american or is there room for more exotic animals either as npcs or pcs down the line?

Like jackals, snakes, birds meerkats red panda kowala, dingo etc etc

As stated in the Species Masterpost, "As you might notice, all or most of these species are North American. The current known world is geographically and climatically similar to North America, thus the reason for the species being from North America.

As the known world expands, the list of acceptable creatures will expand to suit."

So, in answer to your question, there is not much room for exotic creatures now. But as we work on and expand the map of the know world, there will be.

That sounds good ^^ Where do we direct questions about setting by the way o.O

Questions like what life is like in certain places, how do preditors and prey get along. Do terms like woodlanders or vermin apply here etc etc.

Thank you so much for replying so quickly

After directing the question to my sister, I have discovered the answer, lol! She says those should go into the help forum.

She's currently working on writing descriptions for the areas. Descriptions will typically include the physical area's appearance and what kinds of creatures are most likely to reside there.
