((The trail wound through dense underbrush, each broken twig and trampled fern hinting at the Nukap's path.)) So far Owe had tracked it all by himself, and he was quite proud of this fact, leading the way while Reach and Reckon followed behind. Owe, clutched his blaster, his eyes darting nervously at every sound. If he let the two more experienced hunters down he would be incredibly embarrassed. They had finally trusted him to take the lead, and he sur...

((The dense forest buzzed with the quiet hum of insects, the distant calls of birds, and the rustling of leaves underfoot as Reach, Reckon, and Owe moved cautiously through the undergrowth.)) "Tracks lead this way," Reach whispered, crouching to examine a fresh set of hoofprints in the damp soil. The print was large and deep, indicating a fully-grown Nukap. She gestured toward the north. "It's heading toward the river." Reckon nodded. "Good. If we're lucky, we'll cat...

Hunting Nukap IX

((Deep within the wilds of L'Hatzif, the air is crawling with insects and a type of humidity found nowhere within the frost of Rekes. The unfamiliar, sprawling jungle trills with a multitude of unseen creatures, cacophonic bird cries shaking the very branches that droop and pool up above within the canopies.)) Stryx has taken point, ambling her way through the undergrowth without as much as a peep-- unusual for her, given her inclination to destroy most of what often stands between her and he...

[Hunting Beta] Nukap 001

Hivoo, Thylla, and Ballast lurked their way through the murk in L'Hatzif. ((The dank swamp water swirled around their paws. The massive branched trees wove their leaves together casting a net that caught the sun, preventing all but a scattering of rays from hitting the waters. A chilly breeze whisked its way through the tunnel formed by the trees, whipping up the water to spray both the hunters and the trees on either side.)) Thylla shivered and Ballast shook his mane out against the w...

The Nukap had been a real nuisance lately. Reach huffed, sharpening her spear while she watched Reckon and Owe grab their gear too. The trio had assumed that they would have a peaceful day, having just celebrated Owe officially having permission to hunt with them, but as soon as the three had woken up they were met with a frustrated looking Fawn. "You guys need to do something about the 30 to 50 feral Nukap that keep coming into the clearing whenever I send the whelps out to play...

Hunting Nukap VIII

Reckon kicked a pile of leaves in frustration as Reach and Koi carried it away. It wasn't golden at all, and Reckon was beginning to grow frustrated. She was covered in mud after taking down the Nukap in the bush, and was overall just radiating impatience and frustration. Koi gently patted her on the back "Better luck next time, right?" Reckon sighed, frustrated, "I just want to prove myself to the colony... People wouldn't doubt my hunting skills if I brought home t...

((The forest was alive with the hum of insects and the soft rustling of leaves in the breeze. Rose crouched low, her sharp eyes scanning the muddy ground for signs of their prey. The Nukap tracks were fresh. deep, wide prints pressed into the earth, with the occasional smear of uprooted plants marking the creature's passing.)) "Over here," Rose whispered, motioning to Reckon and Reach, who were close behind her. Reckon, nodded in acknowledgment, her sturdy frame movi...

Reckon sighed, stretching out her sore limbs as she set out for another day of hunting Nukap. The colony had gotten reports of a golden-pelted Nukap roaming nearby, and Reckon had instantly taken it as a challenge. If it was anything like how it was described, it's pelt would fetch a pretty penny on the market. Reach, however, had rolled her eyes at the rumours. "Such Nukap don't exist." She said, her tone hinting that this might turn into a scolding. "You shouldn't believe just anythi...

Four figures made their way through the dense swampy region of L'Hatzif, searching for signs of a wild nukap sounder. Though they'd tracked hoofprints for a ways, the prints had disappeared when the group encountered a particularly wet area where the waters completely covered the ground. As it was, they walked through ankle deep water, forced to use other means to track their prey. Cellex splashed happily in the water. Her shorter legs meant the water was nearly up to her belly, and sh...

[Trade] Tricky Nukap Tracking

By Tsidal ・ 0 ・ 1

((Hidden from the burning sun by an overhanging shelf of rock, Orion, Marchus, and Sagitta made a plan. They had arrived early in the morning, before dawn and well before the day could warm into its full Issiq heat, but they had not found a single one of their intended prey.)) Now late afternoon, the trio had grown tired and frustrated after checking every source of water in the region. Plenty of animals were spotted, but none were nukap, which the picky aerobic royals had specifically req...

Reckon sighed. Over in L'hatzif there was apparently a sudden rise in Nukap numbers. After a local rancher had passe, nobody had wanted to take over the care of the hogs, and eventually they had broken free and spread all throughout the region. Appearently this had happened earlier in the year, giving the animals plenty of time to reproduce. Colonies all over L'hatzif had been hunting them down, trying to prevent them from wrecking the ecosystem. Being one of the colony's few dedicated...

Woodland groaned in annoyance, picking up a spear that had laid besides the field she had been working on. "Get! Out!" she cursed at the small Nukap that had wandered into the field, and had been hapilly munching on some of the crops. ((Sadly, it was too late for the small plant, the Nukap having pulled off most of it leaves. What was left likely wouldn't regrow.)) Woodland frowned, as much as she hated to bring harm to living things, at this rate half her field would be gone. Koi had ...

Having grown up and lived in Issiq nearly his entire life, Carus knew far more about Jaebo that he would've like to. When he was but a whelp, his parents would constantly have to chase the Jaebo out of their vegetable garden, and over time that job got passed on to Carus. He spent a frankly embarrassing amount of his youth trying to figure out how to keep the damn critters away from his home- remaining mostly unsuccessful in his attempts. And because of that, when he heard that Jaebo w...

Hunting 01 - Nukap

((The once warm and sunny day became an almost chilly night as the primary sun slowly made its way along the sky before dipping below the horizon and throwing Mireh into darkness. The wide streets of Or'sol became dimly lit by various means but where the hunters lurked, glowstones were the primary source of soft and multicoloured light. The traps had not been set up long, however some were clearly more successful than others at catching the Hudlah - which were now making the stony ground appe...
