Feeling a bit wacky and trying to look for a way to make lioden a little more interesting for me.

I think my base rules would follow the Liolocke, I can't really find the original thread with rules, but have found that:
1. start with nothing
2. lions must be claimed or bred by me
3. food and toys earned

I don't necessarily have a target in mind for what I want my king to look like, but essentially I'm going to attempt to breed a nice bo trait king via chased ncls

I'll be using this account, since my other one is a prism project that I have invested way too much in lol

First iteration:


Second Iteration: I like my initial thoughts to be kept, as a reference, but I am going to work off them to do a new ruleset


Third Iteration: [some inspiration being taken from Lynx's Liolocke]



1. Account Rules
1a. Must start with empty account. [No Lions, Currency, Items]
1b. Starting with Purchased Groupie
1ba. I decided that I wanted to scoot along the first kings age by just buying a groupie (ugly one :P) outright, I don't feel like this changes anything because he still looks like a rolled king and only has 30 stats. He will start at age 8 instead of the 3y/o that rolleds start with. Less likely to get burnt/bored.
1c. I may sell any obtained items via other players or monkey business.
1ca. I CAN sell NCLs I've claimed
1cb. I CANNOT sell ANY cubs

2. Lions
2a. Clean Breeding ONLY
2b. May only breed to CHASED NCLs and Tree Cubs*
2ba. Tree Cubs may only be kept if they are the same or lower generation than my current king.
2bb. Tree Cubs may introduce inheritable mutations if the following stipulations are met.
2bc. Unwanted tree cubs may be raised and chased to the NCL pool.
2c. I may only hunt twice per day for every lion I own.
2ca. If a lioness fails a hunt, she is just unable to ever hunt again. I will not be bothering myself with having to roll for initiatives, as I will be too lazy to do so lol
2caa. I think if a lioness fails a hunt, she will default to being a broodmother (assuming the pride can have more), if she levels up while a broodmother, she may continue hunting again until the next fail. This is subject to change, perhaps failing may instead just mean no hunting for one RO or a real life week. Not sure what I'll decide on.
2cb. If an entire hunting party fails, a random lioness will be picked to bench.


3. Heirs
3a. The first born male cub to my king will be my heir.
3ab. The heir must be trained and adult before being kingable.
3aba. The idea here is that the heir will be ~8y/o when kinged, so it makes the game go a little bit faster
3b. No heritage or mutation repping. I CAN add MoDs
3c. The game will end when I probably get bored or somehow breed a great heir. At which point I am free to heritage/mut rep as I please.

4. Exploring and Games
4a. The way I usually play is by ignoring all battles and only claiming ncls, but I think to force myself out of my comfort zone, I will be battling everything I see. Including those pesky snakes and spiders that are nearly impossible to kill lol
4b. I am only able to play gamble/chance games.
4ba. Cups, Slot Machine, Baoball, Silver Beetle Raffle. If I choose to do so.
4c. I may attempt to impress the Special Lionesses.
4d. I may do snake quests and the lioness quest when it pops up.
4e. I may complete the Gorilla Enclave quests, but only if I have the cub it asks for.
4ea. Note to self: stick with the easy quests :P
4eb. If I have the cub, may only accept the energy reward.
