I was thinking, how about if we have cubs as claimable NCLs? I know some people chase off cubs, but what if there is a chance they can be found as cubs?

I have two explore encounter ideas for them...

1. The normal 'lioness NCL claiming screen' but instead, the actions would be different, such as 'tempt with food' or 'purr' to try and get the cub to come home with you. But instead of being slapped, the cub would get bored and run off. Or instead of slapping them as an action you could 'kill' them, but of course it would take a blow to your karma...

This would kind of be like the giving tree, but I figured, it would make sense if some of the cubs didn't find their way into the giving tree, kind of like 'chasing off', but this can happen if you 'abandon' the cub.

2. A random Explore encounter like the one where you 'find the lone cub', but instead you get an option to 'adopt' the cub.

FLAVOR TEXT ASPECT:

With this idea, I was also thinking, the text that you get when you abandon cubs seems pretty plain. How about a different flavor text?

Since you're tree-ing the cub,, you probably didn't exactly want to keep the cub, so what if there is a chance the cub could 'get lost' and don't end up in the tree? (this is referred back to the other suggestion up above). And what if you get a flavor text, based on cub's personality that says for example, 'cub got carried away by a vulture', to signal that cub didn't make it to the tree?

(if they get a flavor text that shows them being hurt or taken away, there is a chance they 'died')
