ODDWORLD PETS!
 
If you could have one Oddworld creature, any creture on Oddworld as a pet, what would it be and why?

I would want a.....(man this is tuff).....Mudokon. Just because I feel like they are closer to a human than anything else on Oddworld so we communicate and get along really well.

Dave 12-12-2005 09:03 PM

I'll have to say a fuzzle (or a few fuzzles). Not only are those things loyal and vicious, they're ultimately cute and can therefore attract babes.
Can't go wrong. :D

Lovo328 12-12-2005 09:25 PM

I'd want an Elum, just so I could save gas! ;-)

Nate 12-13-2005 12:08 AM

I'd like a Stunkz, as long as it was trained well. It's damn cute and could be useful to ward off intruders and irritating relatives.

Dark Elite_H2 12-13-2005 02:32 AM

A Steef. Tough, somewhat loyal, and I just like 'em. Oo Oo! Or a Gloktigi! Make great guard dogs, and I guess pets...

LoboDiabloLoneWolf 12-13-2005 02:47 AM

Yeh, I'd want a Steef too...although maybe a midget one (like Dancin' Steef's :D) because most of 'em'd prolly be way taller then me :fuzemb: not good it you annoyed 'em and got crushed like a bug...eeeee...nasty...

used:) 12-13-2005 02:59 AM

A trained Scrab.

metroixer 12-13-2005 04:30 AM

A trained scrab or paramite..

Scrab: Better transportation and a "FEAR ME!" moment :D.

paramite: So cute. I would just love to have one for my own.

Cullen Heath 12-13-2005 05:20 AM

You guys are coming up with ieads I didnt even think of.

Havoc 12-13-2005 05:35 AM

Whee for the scrab. Just think! No more waiting in line at the supermarket! :D. And those jaws make for fine can openers as well ^_^.
Either that or a chipmunk or a fuzzle :P.

Cullen Heath 12-13-2005 05:39 AM

Hehe^ no more waiting in line for a super market? I donk want to know how you would get (or how your Scrab would) rid of the people infront of you

Dave 12-13-2005 05:50 AM

You can't have a pet that would kill somone ... think of the legal repercussions.
Unless you meant that your otherworldly pet scared people away from lines.

But then again, if we're discussing having pets from Oddworld, we'll have to suspend disbelief anyway.
I still have to say fuzzle ... though I think a paramite would be cool, too. I didn't know we were assuming we could have these animals trained.

Vykker Lady 12-13-2005 06:31 AM

i would want a boombat...they're so cute :D that or a scrab...or maybe one of the ratz

Mojo 12-13-2005 08:12 AM

Snakes can kill someone. Even normal dogs can kill someone. Scorpions can kill someone, so can horses.

Anyways, who wouldn't want a pet, which can open up cans with its jaws, and preform a nice tapdance-act while you're eating?

Abe16 12-13-2005 08:29 AM

I'd probably like glukkon, more of a financial advisor than a pet. he could help me advertise and sell my comix! :D

Slig outlaw 12-13-2005 01:24 PM

I would say a gabbit because they are a very peaceful cretures and they love to swim just like me.

Cullen Heath 12-13-2005 01:49 PM

abe16 and slig owtlaw, you guys are right on the spot of what I would want.
A Glukkon, Gabbit, or a Mudokon.

Ajiellyn 12-13-2005 01:56 PM

I'd have to choose between a Paramite and a Slig... Single Paramites are so fun, I remember in Exoddus when you had to use a Paramite to keep some Fleeches away. For a few moments it really looked like the thing was deliberately being my guard dog. But then again, I absolutely love Sligs. It'd curl up on the foot of my bed at night... No guns, though!

LoboDiabloLoneWolf 12-13-2005 02:03 PM

Lol Ajiellyn, wonderful mental image there. Awww, Sligs can be cute too. :D I'd still stick with a Steef though. They're furry. :D:D:D

Cullen Heath 12-13-2005 02:13 PM

A SLIG! I couldnt stand a Slig. They probably smell horrible.

Slog, too drooly.
Slig, too smelly.
Fleech, too licky.
Paramites and Scrabs would be too freaky to keep in the house.

I just have to stick with mine.

Dave 12-13-2005 02:34 PM

Who said you'd have to keep a paramite or scrab indoors? Some people raise their pets to be outdoors animals.

A glukkon! Just what I need. From a financial standpoint. Not from a monopolize the universe standpoint.

A slig ... interesting. Aren't they, like, loving and nurturing by nature? Provided they never found guns, they might be good companions.

A mudokon as a pet ... I think that they are too sentient to count as "pets." For that matter, so are gabbits, sligs, glukkons, and steefs. Maybe cool buddies, but not pets.
Know what I mean?

Cullen Heath 12-13-2005 02:44 PM

YEAH, thats what I meant when I started this thread, not really as a pet but as a buddie.

And still you know what I mean About the Srcabs, even if they werent in the house it would be freaky.

Dark Elite_H2 12-13-2005 02:58 PM

Or...instead of a Steef...I'd take some Stingbees, Rabid Fuzzles, and Boom-bats! Or a Scrab...I LOVE ALL OF THE WILDLIFE! ^.^

odd chick 12-13-2005 04:07 PM

Yeah, I don't think that Muds, Sligs and Gluks (probably even Gabbits) could be considered as "pets". If I were to have a "friend" of Oddworld, then I'd go with a Mudokon, but for a "pet"........that's a tough one. I would've went with Fuzzles, but since they're very toothy that's out of the picture. :D I guess I'd go with an Elum.

Salamander 12-13-2005 08:35 PM

mudokon wouldn't be your pet, buddy, or slave....... if your that evil

but a scrab would be cool, a group of paramites would be awsome, but i think, something small would be best.... or an elum!

Cullen Heath 12-13-2005 08:52 PM

Awwwww no! No slave Mudokons! All must be free pets and friends!

Havoc 12-13-2005 09:03 PM

Well I usualy have my friends scrub the kitchen floor. So if I can get a mud for a friend, yes, that would be swell. :P

Cullen Heath 12-13-2005 09:06 PM

Ha^ you do?


Well what do you guys think that the most helpful Oddworld creature would be to have around the house?

Lovo328 12-13-2005 09:41 PM

Heh, well while a glukkon would be a good financial advisor... I wouldn't wanna walk in on it in the shower if it lived with me. What an AWFUL site! When I saw Molluck... naked... the first time in Abe's Oddysee, I reacted at the same time abe did and went "YICHH!!" But I need the financial advice.

Financial Advisor - Glukkon
Someone to take on Roadtrips - Gabbit (seems like they'd be lovely company)
Excercise Buddy - I dunno! A slig??? Maybe a mudokkon.
Yoga Partner - Mudokkon
Hunting Partner - (Whatever the heck Stranger is... I forgot)
Someone to help me with my science homework - Vykker
Transportation - Elum
Pet - Fuzzles (indoor) Slogs (outdoor)

Dancing Steef 12-14-2005 12:14 AM

Yeh, I'd want a Steef too...although maybe a midget one (like Dancin' Steef's :D) because most of 'em'd prolly be way taller then me :fuzemb: not good it you annoyed 'em and got crushed like a bug...eeeee...nasty...


yeah I agree with ya Lobo;) a midget Steef...:lol: I'd like to have a Steef too, because they're cool, tall and good protectors as well:D but when you mentioned the leingth of a Steef...hrrm not to worry 'bout if yer not are going to start fights or something else for that matter:fuzzle:

Or else if not a Steef then a Gabbit, cuz they're peaceful creatures and they are sooo cute:happy:
