-LOCKED - Anti-Poaching Event
Posted on 2015-03-03 07:30:28

World Wildlife Day


Today is World Wildlife Day, and with that we want to honour what we may lose if we donโ€™t fight for it as civilization, as a whole. Every day should be wildlife day.

2014 alone, according to data published by South African Department of Environmental Affairs, 1250 Rhinos were poached. It's double than 2012. Just in january 2015, 49 Rhinos fell to poachers. Imagine how bad it would be without organizations who try to save those animals. Not only Rhinos, but Elephants, lions, leopards, all of them.

Many poachers will hack brutally the the entire face off of the rhino with axes while the animal is still alive to ensure that they get the entire horn as well as this "serum" as it is worth more.

Living our everyday lives might seem helpless in a big fight against such endless problem. It might not occur to us when we drink our morning coffee, drive to work or play a videogame, that we actually can do a little something, to help people who are professionally prepared to fight against mass animal massacres. We can give them a hand and share what we have with them, and help spreading the word around the world. Helping to save the lions, rhinos and elephants, and all other endangered animals is in our hands as well.

Anti-Poaching Event

Anti-Poaching Event is creating oppoturnity for you to defeat poachers in Explore, gain Prevent Points to unlock the secret area and defend the Africa!
What is great that the wandering poachers have randomized encounters AND some outcomes too, and this adds a lot of variety to your choices! But be careful! If your level is too low, you might not stand a chance against a large number of poachers! There's traps everywhere!
Killing poachers and just shooing them away is affecting your karma!

Prevent Points are gained for public bar unlock, but you might notice you also gain "RB". These are Rhino Beetles, a special event currency! Keep onto them as you unlock the secret area!

But Poachers aren't only lurking in Lioden, they already did some evil. You might stumble upon the results of their doings in explore as well. It might be horribly sad but it's horribly true in real life as well. We want to raise awareness, and we want you to be prepared for sad times.

But be wary! If you guys don't manage to prevent poaching in time and unlock tier 3, there will be harsh consequences!

Charity


Just like last year, we will be donating part of our March income (at the end of the month) to organization we trust and believe in the most. The person who founded it, Damien Mander, used to work as a sniper and in the military but gave up that and all his life savings to start IAPF when he noticed how bad poaching was when he went to Africa. They use the top notch technology to fight poachers with best tools possible, such as trap detectors, drones and military training, scoring arrests with constant ambushes. They do everything to prevent animal extinction in Africa alone, not just post sad posters around the world.

To learn more about Damien Mander and IAPF, you can watch this video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0yxeQYca-U

Event update for 2015: as you unlock tiers, a few more encounters in explore will appear. Also, new rewards in the shop will be available in higher tiers.

Good luck, and good night!

When I first saw the update I got scared and even cried... Killed animals are the worst sight to be seen!!
Seriously, I wouldn't feel guilty even a bit if humans die... But killed animals just-- is so heartless, damn... Humans are like wild animals! Poor innocent animals... qAq

Man. This event... Since I first came across that poached rhino (it was the first site event I got related to this), I died a little on the inside. Then I accidentally scared the orphaned caracal cub and wound up with its shattered skull in my inventory, and I almost broke down.

There were moments where I wasn't sure I could wander around in explore because I didn't want to bump into any of the massacred animals. I realize that, here on Lioden, it's just art and it's in no way contributing the violence--but the rawness of the event itself makes the reality of poaching really sink in. You were certainly successful there, and I'm going to continue participating as often as possible.

All in all, thank you for running this awareness event. And for not being afraid to make it strike as hard as it does.

I wonder if we'll fail to reach the final goal this year, the one that doesn't impact the shop and has a mystery amount. I'm kinda curious what the "punishment" they mentioned from last year was XP
