I haven't done an Ark update in a long time. Nothing much just more taming and breeding. Playing has been slow since creatures where not spawining in for a while(had to dinowipe a few times to get them back in)
Finally got that 5th health mutation in my sloths getting ready for the Broodmommy. Did the fjordur labirinth cave (never again until I get a tek suit. You can't grapple and I suck at jumps. Or I may just creative mode it if I have to get in there again).
I got thylas! And really love them.
Killed that Titan that was roaming Asgard. had to get a pic with it.
Here Me and my imprinted R-Thyla Margaret!.
Also went to Jotunheim, was scared for the cold but my mostly prim fur armor (except a mastercraft helmet) and a high meelee otter was enough! Tamed some things and took some pics there
I got a beautifully colored X-Yuty
These are his colors if anyone wants them. Color IDs for survival evolved!
70: Dark Magenta (Amaranth purple -hex #b70042)
31: Dino Dark Purple (English Violet hex #403459)
83: Lemon Lime (Green Yellow hex #a8ff44)
1: Red (Red hex #ff0000)
89: Dark Lavender (Palatinate hex #5e275f)
Also.

K/S Advent
Guess what time it is? Yes! @ksadvent ...the long-standing k/s tradition of spirky goodness is almost upon us!
The due date is November 20th, but we can negotiate! 😅 Instead of setting it up so you have one fic a day, we run it slightly differently, so that (ideally) you have several things revealed on each day in December!
You can see the prompts here: https://archiveofourown.org/collections/KS_AdventCalendar2023/requests
Please signal boost if you're so inclined and help us get the word out!
