Wildlife of the Scarred Wastes

Hey I put together a list of all wildlife found in Plague, for writing purposes. Because it's pretty unique from the rest of Sornieth. Thus can be a bit difficult to write for.  It's also interesting to note that most of the creatures can be found in other locations too, I picture the varieties found in plague to be more...plague-y. I hope this is at least a good jumping off point for you writers/worldbuilders!

Includes little personal notes here and there about possible uses, ecology and real-life equivalents, and interesting notes from the items bio too.

Everything under the cut. Long post ahead

[aceofcards-lightflight]

I’m normally not one to do this, but I’ve been curious about the totals and percentages based around the Coliseum and the drops within it. Like I care little for how much profit it makes me or anything like that, I was merely curious at what the rarity is to get certain items and how. So I began to look at percentages. The following below the cut is what I’ve discovered so far in the Training Grounds. Also, uhm, placed in some “clan lore” nonsense format because why not.

Maybe when I’ve gotten data tables for all venues I’ll drop this in the Guides forum of FR and open it up to have others provide data to increase the accuracy of percentages. Of course when new shit is added it throws everything off and we must start again, I suppose...which would be angering really. I’m not sure how I’d go about that though.

Submitted to the desk of Nanner, Clan Patriarch.

Total Monsters Battled: 695 Percentages Based Upon This:

Amaranth Moth 4.60% encounterability (32 encountered) Bluelight Chipskink 4.32% encounterability (30 encountered) Brown-Spotted Mith 3.60% encounterability (25 encountered) Bumble 5.04% encounterability (35 encountered) Ceanothus Bralwer 3.45% encounterability (24 encountered) Chipskink 3.75% encounterability (26 encountered) Coral Carpenter 5.61% encounterability (39 encountered) Crimson Emperor 2.73% encouterability (19 encountered) Dark Sparrowmouse 5.04% encouterability (35 encountered) Death’s-Head Stag 3.60% encounterability (25 encountered) Ember Mouse 4.60% encounterability (32 encountered) Emerald Webwing 4.03% encounterability (28 encountered) Frosted Pocketmouse 3.74% encounterability (26 encountered) Glowing Pocket Mouse 3.17% encounterability (22 encountered) Leafy Moth 2.88% encounterability (20 encountered) Luna Mith 5.18% encounterability (36 encountered) Mith Bruiser 1.73% encounterability (12 encountered) Primrose Mith 3.02% encounterability (21 encountered) Ragepuff 4.03% encounterability (28 encountered) Ruby Webwing 4.75% encounterability (33 encountered) Satin Pocketmouse 3.88% encounterability (27 encountered) Silky Webwing 4.03% encounterability (28 encountered) Sweetpuff 3.45% encounterability (24 encountered) Webwing Alpha 5.47% encounterability (38 encountered) Yellow Sparrowmouse 4.32% encounterability (30 encountered)

Okay, that’s interesting right? Based upon this data, which is somewhere around 150-300 battles in that range itself not counting individual monsters (I wasn’t counting originally and only counted the last 100 battles in a seperate data sheet to record yes or no loot percentage chances and had nothing to do with these percentages as a whole) Anyway based on this data the lowest chance encounters are Mith Bruiser, followed by Crimson Emperor and Leafy Moth. The highest chance encounters then follows as Coral Carpenter, followed by Webwing Alpha and Luna Mith. This is followed with a close tie of Dark Sparowmouse and Bumble which is just, huh. Not anything I would’ve thought about before, you know?

I took this a step further and went to see the chances of drops based upon the monsters encountered and the loot received at the end which...is also interesting. The percentages I have in those tables are based upon just the number of the monster in question that was battled so really you’d have to look at them as percentages of percentages to get the actual rarity/availability of certain drops. I also did some research into what known drops there are for which Monsters and what drops we still have questions on which monsters provide.

Which...there is a lot we don’t have data on for the Training Grounds so that’s a thing, apparently, that is a thing.

I’m not going to list that datalist because it’s...it’s huge. I have it saved in a sheet with WIP designs for later venues. I’m just running through Training Grounds right now because I’m looking at...well, I’m hunting for a Bumble. I already finished the other challenge in this venue so it’s just the Bumble at this point and...I got bored. Hence the new recordings I’m making to get data which is--which is not me really. I don’t get this...invested or data intense or curious really so.

Huh.

Someone must’ve rubbed off on me somewhere.

Now why did this data get sent to me? Who sent this anyway? They didn’t sign this information. Maybe I should ask Delphinium who we’ve got on Coliseum duty...she’s better at keeping track of things like that. - Nanner, Clan Patriarch

Intent

Pt 1 | Part Two

Iarere wakes to pressing darkness. His ears twitch as he takes in the silence of the room; Ryu is gone.

It’s not unusual, really. She was not at all social, and it wasn’t a surprise that she’d wanted to sneak out before everyone else awoke.

        Iarere shifted in the blink of an eye, claws retracting in as he prepared to lift himself off his mat. It was only then, however, that he noticed the piercing headache he possessed.

        It was a distantly familiar pain, all too reminiscent of the days when his Caster power was first manifesting, and then once more afterwards, when he had been getting used to Ryu’s presence in his dreams, right along with the oppressing darkness she occasionally brought with her.

        “It’s common,” Ryu had told him. Iarere had tried to convince himself that the annoyance in her tone was imagined. “You’ll get over it once you’re powerful enough.”

        “You got them too?” Iarere had asked.

        “A long time ago,” Ryu had replied. And that had been the end of that conversation.

        Now, like then, Iarere shook the pain away. Now, like then, he had more important things to focus on. Especially since he could now hear Pythios moving around just outside.

        He gathered himself quickly enough, strapping his staff to his back as he made his way out of the small corner room Pythios and Chalah had been kind enough to let he and Ryu use. He knew if he turned his head to the left, he would see Chalah’s slumbering form, either gigantic or truly tiny, depending on whether he’d chosen his original or shifted form to sleep in that night. On the other hand, he could see Pythios’ slim shoulders directly in front of him.

        Pythios, unlike Chalah and Ryu, could easily look him in the eye when they were in their shifted forms. Iarere was unsure if he would consider either of Pythios or himself wildly tall in their shifted forms, but a slightly sour Chalah and Ryu had informed them that they definitely would.

        Now Pythios was leaning over the cache of herbs he kept, while Calandra slept on in one of his clinic's cots.

        Through his time as a healer, Iarere had been through many disappointing experiences. Patients who never fully recovered. Patients who died. And yet, Calandra had topped all of them in terms of sheer frustration. It had, Iarere was sure, something to do with the fact of her power. Her mind, her dreamscapes, and the spirits that hovered around and in it were like a third sun beaming down on him whenever he sunk into the dream world. It was impossible to ignore and so was she.

        “Eldan will be here soon,” Pythios said, without taking his eyes off his work. It was what he said everyday, as if Iarere wasn’t familiar with Eldan’s daily ritual by now. In fact, he was as aware of it as he was of Pythios’ next question. “Is Ryu here?”

        Iarere didn’t bother to hide his sigh. Eldan had taken an immense disliking to Ryu quite quickly. It was not undeservedly, though. Ryu had long seemed to harbor a distaste for Calandra. She refused to even get close to her and frequently eyed her as if she were a hydra. It took only moments of Eldan watching her do so to decide he disliked her and only a few moments after that for Ryu to decide that Eldan’s dislike of her amused her to no end. So, occasionally, when Ryu did feel like social situations were worth stomaching, she would loom in the corner of the room to quietly antagonize Eldan as much as possible.

        “She’s not,” Iarere said. “I don’t know where she went.”

        “You’re not worried, are you?” Pythios asked, his large earrings jingling as he turned around.

        “No,” Iarere said, and from the look on Pythios’ face, he could hear Iarere’s lie as easily as Iarere could taste in on his tongue.

        Eldan’s footsteps echoed outside the clinic and Iarere slid his staff from his shoulders and worried the worn wood under his hands as he moved quickly over to Calandra’s side. Eldan glanced suspiciously around the room before he entered slowly and hurried to Calandra’s side.

        “She’s the same,” Pythios said

Eldan’s face twisted into an ugly expression of pain, anger, and desperation and Iarere looked away. “She hasn’t done anything?”

“No,” Pythios said gently. “Iarere believes her mind was overloaded with Spirit power while she was performing the necessary ritual.” Iarere tried to ignore the glare Eldan shot him. “She’s physically healthy and seemingly stable. This coma is likely something her brain cooked up to allow her to rest while it deals with all the extra energy.”

“You think,” Eldan added on, under his breath. Pythios ignored him. Eldan’s lip curled at Pythios’ silence and he kicked the chair out so it made a piercing scrapping sound against the floor. He sat in it with a loud thump and Iarere couldn’t help but marvel at how childish Eldan looked as he then crossed his arms high up on his chest.

Pythios had started to wander off about half way through Eldan’s display. Iarere had never seen Pythios roll his eyes before, but he was entirely sure this was his way of doing so. Iarere pulled his gaze off the sulking Eldan and hurried after Pythios.

“He’s worried about her,” Pythios said softly when Iarere came to his side.

Iarere blinked. “I know.”

There was a beat of silence, and though Pythios didn’t look at him, he did cock his head ever so slightly as he asked, “how would you feel if it were Ryu?”

Iarere stared at him. He knew Pythios would never be intentially cruel. It simply wasn’t in his heart. He wouldn’t have asked that if he thought thinking about it would truly pain him. And, so, he must think it might not.

Did it? It shouldn’t. Ryu was the anthesis to what Iarere stood for. He was a healer. She was a murderer and a monster and worse. And she had never been particularly nice to him besides.

And yet his chest ached at the very thought.

Iarere could feel Pythios’ gaze on the side of his face now. The other did not speak again, but he made a humming noise, low and in the back of his throat. Iarere couldn’t tell what it meant, but it still made tears burn in the corners of his eyes.

And it hurt enough that Iarere failed to realize his headache had only become worse.
