Summary

Mods "[Magiclysm] Add the aenor, a giant heron riding mount"

Purpose of change

Wanted a flightless bird riding mount for elves, didn't want it to be a murderbird or kind of silly like most fantasy flightless bird mounts, and settled on a giant heron.

Describe the solution

Add the aenor (plural aenóren), a giant flightless heron, tamed millennia ago by the elves. They're not originally native to North American but exist here for the same reason horses do. They're extremely fast but solve most problems by running away, so they're not great at combat.

There could probably be combat-trained aenóren out there, but not that many, for the same reason there aren't a lot of warhorses nowadays.

An aenóren ranch would be a good random special for farms, in another PR. Lacking that, they occasionally spawn in the wilderness after a few weeks (domestic escapees).

Describe alternatives you've considered

Testing

Exists and can be ridden. Cannot be ridden through zombies.

Put two aenóren parents and an aenor chick up against a zombie horse. The parents did hit and run attacks until the chick ran away, then they ran too.

  • A large egg laid by an aenor. You could feed a lot of people with this.
  • An aenor chick, already as tall as a human's waist. It still has a long way to go before it can bear a rider.
  • Graceful and resembling herons but stretched to the size of a horse, the aenóren ("white-striders" in Brocéliandean) were domesticated by the elves millennia ago. While not useful as draft beasts, they retained popularity as courier or racing mounts due to their speed, at least until the invention of automobiles.
  • With bedraggled feathers and rent skin, stumbling as it walks, this formerly-living aenor is in a sad state.

This alert is automatically generated. You can simply disregard if this is inaccurate, or (optionally) you can also add the new words to tools/spell_checker/dictionary.txt so they will not trigger an alert next time.

Hints for adding a new word to the dictionary
  • If the word is normally in all lowercase, such as the noun word or the verb does, add it in its lower-case form; if the word is a proper noun, such as the surname George, add it in its initial-caps form; if the word is an acronym or has special letter case, such as the acronym CDDA or the unit mW, add it by preserving the case of all the letters. A word in the dictionary will also match its initial-caps form (if the word is in all lowercase) and all-uppercase form, so a word should be added to the dictionary in its normal letter case even if used in a different letter case in a sentence.
  • For a word to be added to the dictionary, it should either be a real, properly-spelled modern American English word, a foreign loan word (including romanized foreign names), or a foreign or made-up word that is used consistently and commonly enough in the game. Intentional misspelling (including eye dialect) of a word should not be added unless it has become a common terminology in the game, because while someone may have a legitimate use for it, another person may spell it that way accidentally.
