Ex-heir.
decor plan
In tribute of my dear friends, Vermax and Steph, Steph for sending me this lovely cub after I mentioned like ONCE I loved bandit lions (still do!!!), and Vermax for reminding me that not all lions need to be kinged.
Mysterium is GORGEOUS, and I really wanted to king him, but I have just too many heirs, and I'm starting an heir project, and I can't have a ton of heirs, especially ones that I know I'd want to mut rep, and I know I wouldn't be able to. And I will never intentionally breed a king with a heritage longer than G3.
Anyways, I was going through old messages when I found this one from Vermax:
Yeah you do lol. You know you could just keep some of them as females and make them queens? When I find a lioness I love, I treat them super well, give them fancy bases and marks, dress them up and make up lore for them (of course I do that last one lol). They don't all have to be heirs for the role of king, after all! Then you can breed them and still have a use for them until you are ready to retire your king and pick whichever male heir you decide on.
And before i forget.. HORNS - legion, twisted and demonic bull :P
I am actually working on that project already on both accounts. Here it's my Savage Project (Mango wa Shenzi), where I'm working on getting Savage marks from multiple Savage studs on the same lion, plus hopefully some other BOs, like Noctis Margay and Noctis Panther (which also look super good together, as a side note). L
In my main, it's the two project caves, PLUS the raffle cave. I don't have all the marks picked out for my Sohni project or for the Margay project, but they will end up being full BOs. At least, that's the plan! The raffle project is about combining raffle marks from multiple raffle lionesses onto a single lion, which is a great one to do now since I have a raffle clone king.
Obviously it will be a while before I see any progress on those, since Asterus is sticking around at least until the patches version of him passes naturally, and I haven't even kinged that one yet lol. But the raffle project is fun and going well. I've gotten some interesting RL combo clubs already!
You should totally get rid of your dirty lions. When I came back from my (several year) hiatus last year, I was like "Pssssht! Who cares about this clean breeding crap?" It took me all of a month to change my mind and king the first Geki, and then later a heritageless Geki. Now I'm obsessed with low gen lions XD. There's something about being able to see all of a lion's heritage on one page that I like, and even more, I like that I general know all of the lions in my lions' heritages. In some cases, I have lions that are ONLY related to my king's and NCLs, and thats freaking cool. That's what hard mode is all about - building a pride up from the ground - completely restarting from scratch with nothing but a rolled king send some NCLs. I won't do hard mode on my main, because I like the flexibility of being able to buy higher gen lions if I need to, but on my side, it is super fun.
Woo-hoo! Anyway, i typed a lot. I'm sorry XD I get excited by breeding lions as you can tell lol ALSO. Please show mr your ideas! I want to see what design ideas you have!
Which is something that I had forgotten about, and THANKFULLY, found before I had five heirs, and six reps. Again.
