Chapter 3: Dark/Light Oceans
The Dark and Light Oceans are the two oceans on either side of the mainland. There aren't many objects in these areas to begin with, but several add-ons (which will be discussed later on) can be added to them. The following animals can be found in these areas:
Zander Fish: These relatively common fish are the little striped fish you see swimming around. They can't do anything bad to creatures, so don't be afraid of them. They are edible, and make delightful snacks, especially for MerNorns and Gill Norns. When eaten, the creatures will leave little fish bones: clean these up, as they can make creatures ill if eaten! The Zander fish eggs are bright turquoise, and only hatch on the third day of autumn in the morning! Fish, baby fish, and eggs listed as 'critter', bones listed as 'detritus'.
Sea Anemone: These relatively harmless critters don't really do much other than wave their tentacles around. If a creature or the Hand touches one of them, it will curl up into a little ball for protection. Listed as 'critter'.
Borland the C-Monster: Borland, although listed as 'badcritter', isn't really as bad as he looks. In fact, he can be quite fun to watch! He lives in the dark ocean, and feeds off Zander fish in the autumn. However, since he only appears on the third day of autumn, you must follow some steps if you want to see him.
Wait until the second day of autumn.
On the second day of autumn, use the Zander egg launcher and launch a lot of eggs into the dark ocean.
Wait until the third day comes around. At this point, the eggs you launched into the ocean will hatch, and lots of Zander fish will pop out.
Hopefully, Borland will come out of his hiding place, and you will see him!
Sea Stalk: The sea stalk doesn't do anything as far as I know. It just waves its tentacles around, and curls up when touched. Listed as 'badcritter'.
Giant Clam: It really doesn't do much except rock back and forth, and open up to reveal a pearl when touched. Listed as 'badcritter'.
Jellyfish: If touched, its sting is supposed to be deadly, but it floats too high in the ocean for creatures to touch it. Listed as 'badcritter'.
Crabs: Again, they really don't do much except crawl back and forth. For some reason, though, they can live on land without dying like the fish do. They must be amphibious. Listed as 'badcritter'.
Sea Coral: The coral, found in the light ocean, seems at first to be part of the background. But, Zander fish can be caught in its fronds; luckily, it can't snag creatures. Listed as 'badcritter'.
There aren't any plants in the oceans, so let's just skip to objects:
Waves: Nothing more to say. Listed as 'nature'.
Yellow Raft: Used as a transport between the dock on the right side of the dark ocean to the dock on the left. It has no call button, which can sometimes be a pain. Listed as 'leftright'.
Horn: Although it really is on the dock on the right side of the light ocean, I personally classify it and that particular dock as a part of the ocean. When activated, it plays one of two tunes, while blowing smoke and musical notes from the tip. Listed as 'mediabox'.
Enclosement Chamber: This nifty chamber on the bottom of the light ocean can be used for quarantining sick creatures, storing food, and as a birth chamber for the MerNorns if you want their eggs to hatch naturally. I use it as a Grendel Containment Facility, since the Grendel Nest is directly to its right. In fact, it can be used for just about anything. Doors listed as 'implement', optional water inside of it listed as 'nature'.
Submarine: Used as a ferry between the Volcano and the Incubator Dock. The buttons on it control its movement. Oddly enough, I've found that if you have the containment door open, and you push the left button when it's at the Incubator, it will go down in the containment chamber instead of making its usual stop. Pushing the left button again will cause it to rise up, and go to its usual destination. Listed as 'mover'
Ferry: Used as a method of transportation across the light ocean. Pushing the button on it will cause it to go either left or right. Listed as 'leftright'.
That's all folks! Look for Chapter 4: Norn Garden/Furnace/BioPods 1 coming soon!
