| Zojja the "Genius" Nornchi's chosen successor, Snaff had adapted quickly to the world outside of his egg. In his early days it had been discovered that his visual acuity was impaired and after much experimentation with corrective eyewear he settled on wearing goggles much of the time. He was quite friendly despite living in an enormous laboratory that was yet to be completely explored, restored to its former glory, and improved upon. For a Nornchi he was unusually fluent in Handish and what others would call "Techno-Bibble" and had been steadily been adding to the latter. Most of his young life was spent in the company of Zojja's ghost, a peculiar but seemingly friendly shadow, and a small group of fellow male Nornchi; Tangarao, Alduin, Bran, and Link. The latter two were very quiet and kept to themselves but he always considered them friends regardless to what they thought.
As Snaff grew into adolescence he was found to be far more competitive when it comes down to the lab than with the female Nornchi. Unlike his friendly competitors Alduin and Tangarao, Snaff was more awkward than normal around the girls. But eventually he found his own lady, a golden-furred Nornchi named Yarrow. They became the proud parents of two eggs and were a happy pair up until the day she passed on. On her gravesite he planted a bed of her favorite flowers around a most wonderful surprise, a more artistic holographic representation of her favorite tree. Afterwards, out of grief, he locked himself away in one of the more private labs.
The loss of his spouse aged Snaff far more than the Nornchi had realized. His handful of grey that he was always teased about had turned into a full head of hair and a scattering throughout the rest of his green pelt. Despite his vision having only gotten worse with time his eyes still gleamed brightly, even the lines of age on his face were lightened by them. News of his daughter Ellowyn hatching brought him out of seclusion, and he spent his last days getting to know her and passing on what knowledge he could. He was proud to have gotten the chance to meet one of his and Yarrow's offspring, and to have lived long enough to hear of an offering for her hand! Snaff has joined Zojja in haunting the lab. |

I'm hoping to snitch his son for it! If not, there's always a random gen 1 creatchi. I find myself liking to add fresh genes to the mix around here.

Does Snaff have a successor in the laboratory?
| |
|
I'm going to miss this green fuzzball long after he's gone.

My basic little phone is strange. On top of not getting along with e-mail, I can only see the Creatchis when they're sleeping. XD Don't worry, Snaff, soon you'll get to socialize with Yarrow again.
| |
|
That's totally alright, I usually save those for when I can't socialise with a target Creatchi because I've already done that with them.

|
sorry about the socialization request >< bit out of it and only saw the hyperlink, not the do not disturb sign.

She had a good life, even if I was a bit distracted during much of it to really give her a good story. (Darn you, talking salads!) I really hope the story for this little guy turns out better.
I'll keep that name in mind if I get another boy! If I get a red or reddish girl, no matter what the species, I'm naming her Teyo. That is, if I remember about it later.
It's too bad I only have the sequel and not the first one. I really want to play it to see for myself how much of difference there is between the two. All I have to go by are discussion threads and youtube videos.

Aww, it's a shame Zojja passed away. Snaff looks like he's going to be a fun guy though!
You should name your next guy Vekk! </GW1 fan>

Thanks, Hebi.
So far, yluklyn, that's how the situation is looking. Go figure, huh? Now it's the boys' turn to to compete over a mate! Maybe this time the nerdy Nornchi of the bunch might get lucky.

Isn't the current situation too many males?
