My Reasoning
I've been thinking for quite some time that there should be a way to kill lionesses AND send them to the dynasty, before they are 15 years old. I have been counting down the days until some of my lionesses die, because I need the room but want my precious oldies in my dynasty.

So what if there was an Oasis item that could poison your lioness and cause her to die without completely erasing her from Lioden?

Information
I did some research on poisonous plants that are present in Africa (since there's been a lot of discussion lately about the realism of things like Ligers in Africa) and decided that Oleander is a nice fit to be this poisonous item.

This is an Oleander plant. They are toxic when ingested and can cause severe reactions upon external contact as well.

Ideas (feel free to comment with suggestions!)
- Oleander would be an item with one use.
- It would be bought in the Oasis.
- Can only be used on adults. (EDIT: Possible age limit of somewhere between 5-7 years old?)
- Upon use, your lioness would die just as they would have eventually, and would be sent to your dynasty.

"But what about karma?"
Since you paid GB for an item to kill your lioness, perhaps giving you negative karma wouldn't be fair to the players who want to be good. So, I think that karma shouldn't be affected when using this item, to keep it fair for all players of different karma goals.

Possible action text...
"Your lioness came upon a wild flower and ate it, wondering if it was good. Unfortunately, it was an Oleander. The lion has sadly passed away but can still be stored in your dynasty! Go to dynasty?"

(thanks, BritishAce!)

"Hello! I totally support this idea but some people are saying "that is it bad for your king to murder a lioness" maybe when you use it, the message can say:

"Your lioness came upon a wild flower and ate it, seeming it was good. Unfortunately, it was an Oleander. The lion has sadly passed away but can still be stored in your dynasty! Go to dynasty?"

I don't know. The message kind of reminded me of the poisonous plant Hemlock and how some people are it thinking it was another vegetable. But in reality, it was hemlock. Even a single small bite can kill a man"

Good idea, support

I've longed for such an item in the past myself and was quite disappointed to learn that the current retiring feature, when implemented, would only work for already old lionesses! I think it would make a beautiful,but deadly addition to the Oasis that might be very helpful.
I think introducing an item like this would only encourage more GB purchase and expense, though if the item is used too much staff could consider upping the price of the item and/or the price of dynasty slots. I don't think this item should have any limits on use such as age, though of course it should not work for kings.

I think this would be an excellent item to clear out any jellyfished girls or cubs you have without having to say goodbye to them forever!

Sorry but I don't support this one. We already have a retire feature and now the girls no longer look old in the dynasty. For those who insist, however, perhaps they can simply lower the age that the retirement option appears? Say down to 10 years?

Hello! I totally support this idea but some people are saying "that is it bad for your king to murder a lioness" maybe when you use it, the message can say:

"Your lioness came upon a wild flower and ate it, seeming it was good. Unfortunately, it was an Orleander. The lion has sadly passed away but can still be stored in your dynasty! Go to dynasty?"

I don't know. The message kind of reminded me of the poisonous plant Hemlock and how some people are it thinking it was another vegetable. But in reality, it was hemlock. Even a single small bite can kill a man.

No support. If you were to kill a lioness with the option already there, it would not send her to your dynasty and you shouldn't get her if you are purposely killing her with this. It doesn't works that way when you get rid of them in any way and it wouldn't be used by many people so there wouldn't be any reason for it. Dynasties are used for typical lionesses in most cases and it will become obsolete if every lioness is put in the dynasty because of an item.

"If you were to kill a lioness with the option already there, it would not send her to your dynasty and you shouldn't get her if you are purposely killing her with this."
That is the whole reason for this item. And.. why shouldn't we get her?

"It doesn't works that way when you get rid of them in any way and it wouldn't be used by many people so there wouldn't be any reason for it."
It doesn't work that way because there isn't an item for it to work that way, which is the entire reason for this suggestion thread. I know many people who would use this item - at least 147 of them, in fact. ^.^

"Dynasties are used for typical lionesses in most cases and it will become obsolete if every lioness is put in the dynasty because of an item."
You do understand that not every member will be given an infinite number of Oleanders to use on every single one of their lionesses, right? Dynasties would not become obsolete in any way whatsoever. The entire point of this item is basically to be able to use the dynasties in more situations than what is already possible on Lioden.

I thank you for your explanation, but I am thoroughly confused by your reasoning and understanding of this post.

a kinder way to put it instead of it sounding like you committed murder is like.. flavour text of your lion being sick and you decide that you'll peacefully put them down

Supported! I honestly don't get how this would be detrimental to lioden. You are literally killing your own lioness meaning she can't breed or financially benefit you in any way after she's stored. ^^

You can already do that. Freeze lioness with Turritopsis Jellyfish -> unsecure her -> send her to the dynasty.

Bam! Problem solved
