Hello, and welcome to
Albian Archive, the first known deviantART club dedicated to the
Creatures series.
WHAT IS CREATURES?Creatures is a computer game series with a goal similar to that found in the
Petz and
The Sims series: there is no set goal. The game revolves around you raising, teaching, and breeding a population of furry little aliens called norns (along with their cousin species: the scaly, aggressive grendels, and the curious, kleptomatic ettins) on the abandoned planet Albia or a space ship (depending on the game).
If you are still curious, you should pay
the Creatures Wiki a visit, as it contains virtually everything you would ever need to know about the series... and then some.
NEWSJuly 16, 2008- So, lots of things have occured in the Creatures Community since the last update.
For starters, registration to the Gameware Forums has been shut off, possibly due to spam/user complaints. If you would like to join a third party Creatures forum, please check the links below. Creaturetopia is hosting a discussion on how to lessen or eliminate the spam at GW
here if you are interested. Registration at all forums is free.
Edit (July 19)- The GW Forums have now been shut down. I don't know when they'll be put up again, but hopefully this is only a temporary move. Many of the community members can be found at the forums listed below.In more cheerful news, Creatures Caves has kicked off its (usually) annual Survivor game! Although sign ups have officially closed, you can still catch the beginning of the competition this Sunday (July 20)
here.
In breed related news, there has been recently revealed progress on the long-awaited Flaris Norns! Check out Embri's page on their development here:
[link] Tarlia is also collecting suggestions on genetic/behavioral traits for many of the official C3/DS "plain" genetic breeds (such as the Fallows, Zebras, Bruins, etc.). If you think you know exactly how Harlequin norns should act, be sure to tell here either at Creaturetopia (
[link] ) or the GW forums (
[link] )!
And just a reminder: I'm still accepting art and stories for this gallery.
If you have any Creatures-related news that you feel should be mentioned here, please send the club a note.

Before you criticise somebody, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you DO criticise them, you're a mile away, and you've got their shoes!

I'll find you somewhere
I'll keep on trying until my dying day
I just need to know whatever has happened,
The Truth will free my soul.

Is it just me or is a broken heart a pre-requisite to life?
