As the title says, I was thinking of adding asthma to the game. I have asthma and it was severe until I finally started to really take my medicine. So anyway, felines do suffer from asthma. Now, these are lions, but the pollen, dust, and the grass/plants of Africa could make them have asthma. It flares up their bronchial tubes, causing them to swell with mucus, making air unable to pass through. The lion is soon gasping for air. They will fall unconscious and die, unfortunately. Asthma is a terrible lung disease.

I believe this should be for cubs or adolescents. They play the most if can flare up their asthma. The dust, pollen, and grass that is stirring up while playing will effect them a great deal. This can happen at any time and age between 4 month-1 year and 11 months. The king interacts with them or when you give them a feather, skull, or any amusement item. This doesn't just show up randomly. The mutation is there at birth, but the cub doesn't have a chance of dying until late 4 months old and older. A red message will pop up if your cub has an asthma attack after interacting with it, or training.
Example: "Athena just finished Tussling with you and all the sudden can't breath. The cub lays there distress, and all you can do is watch and pray to the gods that Athena will be ok."
Maybe 10 minutes later as you looking around on LD, another red message has popped up.
"Unfortunately, Athena has passed away from an asthma attack."
A window will pop up and ask you if you would like to freeze your cub using a Jellyfish. Unfortunately, if you don't have a Jellyfish, the cub will go to your Dynasty(If an item is ever made to bring the dead back to life, then you can freeze the cub). There is a slim chance that the cub will live to adolescenthood. Its a rare thing if it does happen. Now, if you don't want your cub to have asthma, all you have to do is purchase the Safrou Fruit from the Monkey Shop.

Cub/Adolescent Appearance
The cub or adolescent could be sitting or laying down with a distress look on their face. Their mouth can be open, panting as the cub or adolescent gasps for air. The nose and lips are turning blue, possibly even the toes. As for the body, the cub can be sucking in so much air, that your able to see the rib cage and barely see the stomach. The cub isn't skinny, jus sucking in air to the max.

So, what do you guys think? This is my very first suggestion for LD. What should I change, or what should I add?

I really like the idea of it being potentially lethal.
If the cub/adol does certain things, it would trigger an asthma attack. We would have to be more careful about what we have them do. Maybe a percent chance for different things.

Maybe add an item that could act as asthma medication if they do one of the potentially triggering activities that has to be given within an hour. There are some natural remedies that some people claim work for them, one of them might be used. Potentially multiple, giving different chances of survival. It probably would be harder to code this way, but still be really interesting.

They actually do have an item that brings back a lion from the dead to freeze it! That's what the Canopic Jellyfish does.
