Hi! Recently I've developed a fascination with mutations and have been exploring in ways to get them. But I got this idea while combing through mutation. Lethal mutations, as we all know, are mutations where the cub doesn't survive into adulthood. However, while going through some of them, they started looking less intense? So what I offer is that maybe there is a small, smaaaaaall chance that lethal mutations can actually survive into adulthood/adolescence. For example, conjoined cubs could make it into adulthood and there have been evidence of conjoined animals making it to adulthood. Of course, not without it's limits though.
-Dying at a much earlier age (anywhere between 6-10)
-No hunting
-Male lethal adults cannot be king
-Maybe even no breeding with them

Do you guys have any other ideas for this? Let me know below!

This is interesting because it would make people want to chance letting their lethals grow instead of freezing young. I'm not sure how I feel about it

That would be the gamble! Thank you for sharing<3
Honestly, this is a very work in progress idea! I feel like it needs more, but I have no idea what

I'm mainly assuming it is because of the mutation posts ;w; Besides this does have to do with game art because it's entirely new models for each mutation :'3

Personally, I've never had a lethal mutation but it would be interesting to see them grow up I agree but would it be with all lethals or only some? Supported.

No support.

I'd much rather see new mutations than the additional age stages for the lethal mutations.
If they lived to adulthood, that'd be an additional two cub stages, two adolescent (male/female) and two adult (male/female).

Also, the majority of the lethals will not survive,
Conjoined cubs would most likely die, the only one I can see surviving is two head.

^ I see all of your points, But only one janus (Two face) IRL has survived for so long, And that being Frank and Louie. Then again, he WAS a house cat, Not a lion. Frank and Louie lived for 15 years in captivity, In the wild he likely would not have lasted long.

Video of frank and louie, longest living janus cat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--qHTGbAM6A

No Support. None of the living creatures that were born with the lethal mutations we have in the game would live in th ewild, with no medicine or surgery at all.

none of the lethal mutations we have in game can survive. Period. No support. This has been suggested over and over and it makes 0 sense as to any of the lethal mutations we have surviving at all.

this is an old post, but since its gotten recent traction, i want to add that the conjoined twins are noted to be joined at vital places, and the health notifications are clear that the cubs have no coordination and don't move much—they'd be high risk for predation, even if they weren't conjoined in a vital place.

as unfortunate as it is, all these lethals pass away for definite reasons, and i want the art team to do other things to be frank. (except for deaf tbh, i don't think deaf is any more lethal in practice than blind, so follow that precedent and either make all of those mutations lethal or make deaf nonlethal, and i'd prefer the latter, but who knows.)
