Anyone else noticed the sudden spike in Hyena Cackles recently?
I've been seeing them recruit a lot of the time, quite suddenly.
Is this a dream come true?!
Thoughts on this?
-
I can't say I've noticed, but then again, I don't spend an awful lot of time in the roleplay world of FeralHeart. But it's good to hear that they're making a come back; I'm sure I'm not the only person who thought hyenas have been undermined recently. It's like they're seen a vermin in the roleplay world, mostly by the Lion King roleplayers in my opinion.
I used to have a striped hyena char back in the day. It might be time to get her out again....
-
Yay! Hyenas! :D Now I can use my Hyena character!
And I have also been seeing a lot of them around. cx
-
Eh. I'm personally not a fan of them. x-x
I mean, I guess It's good to have something different going on, it sure is weird seeing them again, though. .u.
-
Ah yes, I saw a big group of them dart across fluorite a few days ago. I thought the lions ate them all... But I'm glad to see that they've made a come back :)
-
Oh, I've noticed them.
I notice them
EVERYWHERE I LOOK.

It's really annoying to someone like me, who's never really cared for hyenas.
It's not that I hate them for the 'noob' reason, it's just because I don't enjoy RPing them as an animal.
Which is why I was annoyed the other day when I was looking for an RP, and EVERY SINGLE MOVIE CLIP (all but one mappless clan) were hyenas.
Yea, I know fads come and go, but really.
Hyenas?
Dragons are cool, they're giant flying lizards with magic.
Humans are OK, at least most human RPs had magic or an interesting plot.
Wolves are WC are always something you can join if you're bored.
Even horses are OK, since many horse RPs had numerous things you could do.
Hyenas...
What type of hyena RP's I've seen:
-Realistic
-Semi-realistic to realistic
-Semi-realistic
-Part of an African RP
-Part of a multi-species RP
All of it is realistic to semi-realistic, which is a real downer to people like me who enjoy fantasy/magic/unrealistic RPs.
I'm not saying that the occasional hyena RP is bad, but this sudden WAVE of hyenas is annoying.
Rant over for now.
-
With all of those Lion King RPers EVERYWHERE trollers might want to make a hyena, get a nice group, and go troll the Lion King prides, or like Faolan said, hyenas are just cool. ;D
-
Honestly, I'm glad they are making a come back after having vanished into thin air for a while.
I personally adore hyenas. I think they are way underestimated not only in the Feral-Heart universe, but in the real world as well. They're very unique animals that just never cease to fascinate me, so I'm quite happy roleplayers are finally appreciating them to this extent.
-
I noticed that as well. That's a good thing I think :3
-
I'm really happy they are, as well I'm sure a friend of mine who adores hyenas more than I would be. And honestly, seeing such emotional/caring and rather intriguing creatures populating more into the world of FH for those to both enjoy and maybe learn more about these hyenas is rather sweet to hear right now, in my opinion.
To sum it up, I'm glad such a unique species in nature making a comeback for once. Hyenas are really underrated.
-
I have noticed this too. I've seen the recruiting for hyena roleplays happen at Stone Bridge lately. I think it's pretty neat. I might join a hyena RP one of these days.
Now if only fox RPs could make a comeback too.
-
A little off topic but did you know hyenas are related to the feline family?

Indeed. The hyena family is classed under feliformia - "cat-like" carnivores, which (surprise surprise) the cat family is also classed under. :)
Biology ftw
It seems a bit odd though that we make hyena characters using the canine model when they're more closely related biologically to felines. xD
-
I know! I bet if you made a feline hyena and a canine hyena the feline one would look more realistic.
-
I like some people la hyena characters but most are in realistic and not original. But I didn't Ben really notice
-
Wow so many people love hyenas -dies-
Good to know you most of you guys like the fact they're a-comin' back.
And Coalara, I understand why you think it's a bit of a downer on how they are only really in Africa Rp, ect.
I /did/ use a Striped Hyena in a fantasy roleplay one time, but that's the only time I think anyone has ever used a Hyena in a Fantasy Roleplay.

There have been some glorious hyena groups, and I remember the species with a certain fondness - they are such interesting creatures in the real world. Their rankings in reality are VERY strict - almost like a monarchy type thing. And the females tend to be bigger, which I love because mostly females are the smaller ones in a species. And the lowest female rank is still higher than the highest male rank! They are odd creatures, and get a lot of bad press (You know, the evil, maniacal creatures you get in the TLK) but are still amazing!
The only thing that bothers me is that the females are usually made smaller by users, when realistically they should be big... but a fair mistake. c:
-
Although Im not really fond of hyenas, but its nice to hear that hyenas are making a come back, It would be more interesting to have them in Rp's.
-
To be honest, hyenas are one of my favorite animals,so I am quite happy that they are finally making a come-back .w.
But then again,a tsunami wave of them can get annoying.
Not to mention,roleplaying hyenas is hard work, seeing that every lion around wants to kill you...
-
They had us waiting long enough! xD
That's true though, it feels like it has been a while since hyenas have been seen. Not only just in Fluorite Plains but in packs too. I must say I'm pretty glad. c:
-
I actually have noticed this as well. Definitely in Bonfire, seen a few in Fluorite.
