Don't forget to check yesterday's Friday news post HERE!

August Event - Droughts and Fires!

A ravaging Sahel Drought disrupts migrations sweeping across Africa, claiming lives of humans, livestock and wildlife. With animals dying, many camps have been set to feed hippos and provide basic sources of water for most needing animals like elephants. Reports on rivers drying up are increasing by the day, as the wet seasons never arrive.
What will lions do? Will you rampage local farms and villages, or try to survive on scarce herds and starved corpses? Will you cause a conflict or succumb to plans of nature?

The drought event is supposed to be harsh. You will struggle to survive - your huntresses might experience some failures as well as your male might be struggling to battle if he's too thirsty.

This month, your decisions will affect the good and evil bars (as well as your karma!). If you guys are evil, opportunistic bastards, the evil bar will fill out first and unlock the Evil Shop. If you guys will decide to be good instead, the Good Shop will open. The outcome will reset daily every time bars fill up so you can try again with different decisions, don't worry!
The rewards in the good/evil shops will be fully unlocked from start, the magic will be to gather the currency, which are Carrion Beetles and Bones, that you will find in Explore.
You might have noticed the two additional bars on the News page: Humans Killed & Dried Bones Collected

Of course, they're also based on the evil and good incentive, but they'll progress continously thorough the event..
Humans KIlled bar unlocks special event-only studs, while Dried Bones Collected bar unlocks Peddler shop with extra features such as Tracking Herds and Vulture Chase.

You will also notice a THIRST bar. 100% thirst means you are extremely thirsty and you need to find source of water - found in explore or from items. Thirst drops by 13% every 30 minutes!
0% Thirst means you're good to go! What does Thirst affect? If you're too thirsty, you won't be able to fight with any NPC's!
So... will you eat humans? Will you protect animals? Good luck!

Remember that this event starts on August 1st 00:00 Lioden time, and will end on August 31st at 11:59PM Lioden Time. All unspent currency from each event is stored on your account until next year.

Recap:
- No wet seasons, explore images are extra dry.
- Hunting will fail more often, food will be scarce!
- Thirst drops by 13% every 30 minutes.
- Being cruel will give EVIL points to the EVIL bar, being kind will give GOOD points to the GOOD bar
- You cannot battle NPCs if you are too thirsty! Try exploring for water sources instead.
- Carrion Beetles and Bones are this month's currency, for shops and Peddler respectively.
- Great Fires Encounter in Explore has many possible outcomes.

2015 Changes:
- Tsavo Studs are no longer a reward for Humans Killed. New type of Mane will appear in that place.
- Thirst drops by 13% instead of 10%
- New items (total of 13) in shops will appear weekly starting on 9th to keep things fresh through the month.

This has got to be one of my favorite events so far! So awesome. I'm able to get my side account lion to a higher karma level and I'm able to really let loose with Krater's deplorable antics.

I don't get the thirst meter... Even when I'm 100%, nothing seems to be different?

I'm loving this event so far, I'm getting so much food from explore. Ironic that we're supposed to run out of food, yet it is so abundant XD

I love murdering everything as an evil lion, so much fun >:3

Plus my birthday is on the 9th, super pumped for that.

EDIT: Oh wow I didn't even know my profile pic was a shop owner from this event XD I just thought she looked cool and evil.

So heartbreaking when coming across the dying lioness and her cub. I wish I could take them home to my den. ;-;

When you try to take in the cub whose mother is dying, will the cub always die to? I would love to save the poor little cubbin

What happens if your Evil or Good bar goes to 100%? All mine did was put both to 6%. Glitch or Purposefully??
And why? ;w;

It's a community bar affected by people's selections in explore. When one reaches 100% a store is open. Evil is The Destroyers, good is The Preservers (I think). Each store has different items but takes the same currency Carrion Beetles. After the store is open the bar goes to 0% and starts filling again.

So far all Ii can see is that the thirst bar makes it slightly more difficult to explore. You can't claim a lioness or battle a NPC unless your thirst is above i want to say 50-60% I could be wrong. If you attempt to fight/claim you lose 1 impression.
