The Liolocke Thread

All credit for the name and original ruleset on LD goes to Lynx.

Welcome! This thread is meant to serve as the main discussion hub for anyone partaking in (or interested in) the Liolocke challenge. At the moment this is a casual thing without an official clan, though this may change if enough people join the challenge.

what is a Liolocke?
The Nuzlocke challenge as a concept originates from the Pokemon games, and has since been groomed to apply to other pet/sim sites. The original rules are meant to not only be challenging but also heart-wrenching from a lore perspective. Loss and hardship are common themes, but in turn it's incredibly rewarding to achieve your goals and overcome those hardships.

The LioDen Nuzlocke, or Liolocke as Lynx originally coined it, is designed to make LioDen more challenging and to also generate lore/stories within your pride. The stakes are high and the rules can be a little insane, but it's a great way to add some spice to your everyday LD life! :D

the rules
The original rules were designed by Lynx and posted in their progress thread. Since Lynx first started their challenge, several others have begun to participate and each person has put their own personal spin on the goals and rules. There are, however, some core rules/features that we feel make the Liolocke what it is:

You must start the challenge with nothing. No items, no currency.
All pride lions must be claimed or bred by you. Lions cannot be bought from other players.
All food and toys are earned. Liolocke lions may only be fed with food hunted by Liolocke hunters. Toys must be found in Explore or through submale patrols.


make it your own!
While participating in a Liolocke is meant to be challenging, it shouldn't be so impossible that you can't enjoy yourself. So far, every person that has joined the challenge has tailored the rules to their own personal play style. See our list of participants for links to their rulesets if you'd like to see how other people are playing.

aaaay, this thread is ready to go~!


so I've been messing around with some potential designs based on the NCLs I've claimed over the past month or so. I've gotten lucky with my two Total Shuffle attempts - got Scoria Okapi slot 1 and Noctis Okapi slot 2, and they look really good together! I've combined them with some other markings I have at the moment to get this gorgeous and probably unattainable Madagascar design. -sob-

maybe I can at least get both of the Okapi markings onto one cub??

Wow! That is beyond pretty and would be a fun goal to work towards even if it is really hard.

Thanks!! I might have shot myself in the foot with my breeding rules, though. >.> Maybe I can at least get the Okapi -falls over-

Has anyone else come up with specific goals? :o

I mean I want to get a semi-decent looking dark fured decent stated heir tho that is gonna take a while as I am still trying to make the rules tired with Hard Mode while still sticking to the original Liolocke while still making it enjoyable and link or have some aspects of my normal gameplay and break old habbits

Jeez Vis, she’s very pretty! Imagine actually having a goal set in stone. My only general idea right now is to hopefully get a heir from Sahar’s lineage and hopefully pass down her Soft Rosette. Other than that, I’m very go with the flow right now until I find a lioness that screams “make this a breeding goal”, y’know?

I'm so jealous that you got a rosette NCL, Wild! That's so awesome. Hopefully you can get that marking into your line. Rosettes are stubborn, at least when you actually want them.

Only time I've bred rosettes, the markings were a surprise haha!

This is a cool idea. Once this king dies, I might transfer everything to my main account and start this challenge.

@CrookedGrin

I've just started a version of the challenge on my side account. Let's just say I'm excited to rollover my side next week. xD

Oh, definitely! It’s a very fun challenge— especially if / when you get into the lore and incorporating the other prides in it, etc. If you’ve got any questions feel free to PM me, my messages are always open! ^^

Thanks! He was one of the first born male Noctis on my main acc! I wanted to use him for something interesting, and when I found this challenge I just jumped at the chance to finally be able to use him ^ w^! Hopefully this challenge goes well with him as king c:
