Creatures Caves

Surprisingly I've found its not always too easy for them to do so aside from a couple common culprits. At least, in C3/DS.

Usually-- the norn terrarium pond, or any other very small body of water that is easily walked out of. But there are a few others, such as...

Being a breed with a less robust immune system and low injury tolerance deciding that going to 'grendel home' was a good idea.

Deciding food is optional despite its abundance.

However, the one true award would have to be for this unfortunate norn... it was standing in the way of the sludge gun as it was hooked to the creature detector trying to shoot the grendel that it was meant to deter (this grendel was actually sleeping behind the norn). I happened across it as the norn stood there with its hands above its head, frozen in place, and staring at the sludge gun, proclaiming it was scared/injured/etc. It had already accumulated too much injury I think as it died shortly after I removed it from the line of fire. This was a time before much 3rd party modding on my end-- I ended up getting the selective force field shortly thereafter.
