I wonder if there's a species where the male gives birth- like seahorses do...

Jordan 03-11-2007 06:04 AM

But the female lays the eggs into the male, so how would the female get pregnant? Orally does sound pretty right, seeing as they show no sign of sexual organs. But how big would the baby be? Fuzzles aren't that big themselves, so do they have a short pregnancy or something?

Wil 03-11-2007 05:26 PM

Since they are small, you would expect them to have a short gestation period, yes. I think Fuzzles bloated with pregnancy would be cute and hilarious at the same time. They would probably be made quite immotile. I can picture them in a nest, fed perhaps by a partner or other members of the hive (most live ammo creatures in Stranger’s Wrath seem to live in large collectives.

Is it jus me or are baby fuzzles quite big?

Jordan 03-12-2007 12:17 AM

If you're talking about the fuzzle on the baby chow picture, it's only big because it ate the baby chow. Doesn't baby chow turn one into a big baby?

Xavier 03-12-2007 03:04 AM

we never saw baby fuzzles, sorry

skillya_glowi 03-12-2007 08:07 PM

Sorry for being late...:D
My take on this is:

Mudokons, Sligs and Glukkons come from their Queen, which I believe only had to be fertilized once.
Vykkers reproduce like those flowers that have both male and female organs, I'm too lazy to look up the official name for that.

About the fuzzles, orally seems like a sound theory to me, albeit it is kinda...weird. But when you think about it, is there really another way? Since they'd just fall off each other...Or maybe I'm ignoring some biology principle here...never was my best subject, sorry...
So yeah, in a nutshell, that is what has always been my conception of OW reproduction. Correct me if I'm wrong

Zerox 03-13-2007 12:41 AM

Fuzzles? Well, things like whales and dolphins solve the problem. They get next to each other is all...surely Fuzzles could get just as close to each other?

Wil 03-13-2007 02:12 AM

Whales and dolphins are supported by the water. Fuzzles would have to balance carefully. I imagine a Fuzzle orgy would look like a totem pole.

moxco 03-13-2007 11:43 AM

Lady bugs can do it and their circular.

Jordan 03-13-2007 12:11 PM

Wow, we're really pretty sad, talking about fuzzle sex. XD :lol:

Bullet Magnet 03-13-2007 12:35 PM

Remember on Gremlins, the way the new Mogwai came out of Gizmo when he got wet the first time?

can someone tell me what that is????????????????

Alf Shall Rise 03-13-2007 01:00 PM

An oversized hairless fuzzle with underwear?

Patrick Vykkers 03-13-2007 01:54 PM

Concept art for a shaven fuzzle with incontinence or other bowel/bladder disorders.

That's Tiny. He was the infant fuzzle test subject of Buttflow.

here is where Tiny was introduced:

plus it was an "adult" fuzzle, as you can the effects in the "test a fuzzle"

skillyaslig 04-01-2007 09:15 PM

poor fuzzles...dont know how he could walk...Well 'hop' as fuzzles do.

snuzi 04-01-2007 09:29 PM

Just because he's a bit overweight doesn't mean he isn't able to hop. I mean, obese people could still jump, despite their weight. It would just be more difficult for them is all.

skillyaslig 04-02-2007 02:00 AM

no kidding. He might go through the floor though (no offense Tiny) and that gum rot! Yuck!

He isn't that fat :p. At most, there'd be a thump or something everytime he hops around.

skillyaslig 04-02-2007 02:10 AM

well yeah...Dont think he could be bothered moving or anything.

Ouch, that would hurt.

snuzi 04-09-2007 02:30 PM

Eh, not necessarily. All I'm saying is that the force of his weight against the ground would just make a thumping noise everytime he hopped. I doubt there'd be any pain involved.

skillyaslig 04-11-2007 05:40 AM

Well he could just have munch pick him up...as for the first Q, here are my A.
Gluks:Queen Margret
Muds: Queen Sam
Gabbits: Normal mates
Vykkers: Mate with themselves
Interns: No idea
Fuzzles: Not a clue
Scrabs: Live in herds, like wild horses with dominate males or females leading the herd
Paramites:....Might be normal mates
Clakkers: Normal mates
Grubbs: Normal mates.
Outlaws: Normal mates
Steefs:Normal mates
Wolvarks: Probably normal mates
Gloktogi (?)is that the big ones?:Might be normal..
Octigi(?) is that sekto?:No idea
Meeps:Normal mates
Slogs: Normal mates
Slegs:Normal mates
Sligs: Queen Skillya
Fleeches: Made in labs
as for all the little animals e.i:boombats chippunks probably normal
Stingbees: Queen (like bees)
and thats my ideas

Venks 04-11-2007 11:16 AM

2 things wrong with your post skillyaslig:
1) Fleeches aren't made in labs they are wildlife.
2) Wolvarks have normal mates? Last time I checked I didn't consider dating your younger sister normal.

Zozo the Zrilufet 04-11-2007 11:42 AM

:?Wolvarks date their sisters? :PWhere'dya hear that?

Wolvarks are similar to people who live in Alabama or West Virginia, try to put it together yourself.

skillyaslig 04-11-2007 04:17 PM

1) Fleeches aren't made in labs they are wildlife.

No Venks they were enginerd by the vykkers to be perfect pets, and little gluks are encourage to flush their pets down the toilet when they got to big and savage to take care of. See, i got this from a oddworld web site; ''Originally created in Vykkers Labs to be the perfect disposable pet, Fleeches are cute as babies then mature into bloodthirsty monsters.''

Wil 04-11-2007 04:51 PM

I know the website says that, but you can’t just create a creature. Fleeches have been genetically altered. They were natural creatures, but the form we see today was created by Vykkers.

ziggy 04-11-2007 04:54 PM

ya, fleeches were made by vykkers to be pets for glukkons, don't you know???? The game points it out, and if you look in the manual it will say that. Although it's weird that one of the weirdos would be from a fleech tribe, but I guess the old ones live the wild, it's strange...

grr max you beat me to it

Venks 04-11-2007 05:35 PM

Thx Max for helping me out.
Yeah Alf tells us that Fleeches are wildlife, check it out yourself if ya don't believe me.

skillyaslig 04-11-2007 05:56 PM

I never said i didnt belive you, its just there are many differnent opinons of these types of things, so what ever, i dont really know what to think, not that i think much nowdays. Hey, but this is oddworld, they do strange things in that place, i mean Abe can transform into a Shrykull so why cant the Vykkers make creepy worm thingies? I dont know, thats just my theroy on thee fleech.
