Risan feathered monkeys... creepy or what!

Is it me (probby is) but are the Risan Monkeys creepy as heck. Especially the ones with the white feathers around the eyes. They look like feathered grey aliens coming to give you an alien probing. With those three fingers looks as if they could easily.

As for the Tiki masks. A furry Hannibal Lector springs to mind. 'I ate the Cardassian's liver with some Ferengi beans and a nice Romulan ale.... ffffffffffffffffffff'

Have you seen a Tiki mask? https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=tiki+mask&client=firefox-a&hs=YQv&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=sb&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=gdmdU_CyGMOkPbGbgagE&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAQ&biw=1472&bih=726

if one of those furry deamons came at me with one of those on I'd burn the place down trying to kill it with fire...

No... not nice creatures. :eek:
Monkey see, Monkey do. Monkey flings Feathered Monkey poo... :D

    Or what? Boring comes to mind. Not trying to be spiteful, but compared to the other pets, both paid and free, it's very meh. It's only idle animation is to look behind itself and it looks like it's glitching when it's following you.

    Yeah, it's just a mini-game freebie. No biggie. Just that previous efforts were better. I think all of my monkeys will be meeting Mr Mark Grinder.

    Mark boxes.

    Unlike the good number of parrots I kept from last year.

    In my case, Mark boxes - just like all those parrots I kept last year. ;)

    Yeah, I am not really a fan either. Maybe the baby monkeys, because babies are cute.

    Maybe birg eggs are gotten a bit too random for my taste, but I am not that big a fan of the race, and the birds look actually good.

    Next year we may get another animal perhaps? I think in terms of critters I also saw some kind of reptiles - I could see pet salamanders actually working better than monkeys. And we might see more Gorn on Risa. :)

    We already have a grotto. Now all we need are named salamanders.

    Actually i still didnt see any feather monkey around as a pet.. lol.. must be a reason. :D, i always hated that monkey its really awful. For the other hand, the birds are great. Too bad they are almost all the same, any variant is the same with just ridiculous detail changes, and sometimes the back feathers in the mutated varians dissappear for no reason :(, but the birds are really far better than the monkeys. I have already a bunch of purple birds on a few toons that i need to decide which i keep to be my pet and which ones i trade for marks.

    There's only three variants of the Monkey: Blue, Red, and Green. And then on top of that, the variant is Tiki Mask. The birds do have a bit more diversity...
    And... I have a little red Slasher Movie Villian myself. I call him... Poopy Joe.

    You'll find some facts about the parrots here, here and here.
    And here is a description picture I made that still seems valid this year as well (should cover all irregularities and bugs):
    http://s23.postimg.org/4wacebxyx/Complete_Parrots.jpg

    It's all a year old but I haven't seen any difference this year.

    Thanks for that chart, its great :)

    Yup, only slighty color changes.. thats all. It will be awesome if we could see DIFFERENT bird species, not just the same over and over again..

    Monkey? What monkey?

    *stuffs monkey into Mark conversion box*

    I don't see any monkeys. Or any birds for that matter.

    Yes, OP.


    The monkeys ARE watching you. And plotting.....





    @skollulfr:


    those horgan statues that follow you around are the creepy things.




    Reminds me of those creepy garden gnomes. ;)

    I got a juvenile with a tiki mask that I'm keeping because he looks so horrible. And I don't mean horrible in a, the artwork is bad sense. I mean these monkeys are little walking nightmare fuel. He's only missing a butcher knife in his little hand to complete the look.

    I'm grinding the rest into marks, but I'm keeping one slasher monkey for laughs.

    Excellent idea. At least something good came out of that episode then.

    I can watch my Mugato for ages, I love how he seems to amuse himself catching flies and wheeling round till he goes giddy. And he sounds great. I really do love to see people with them out and about.

    The monkey's, however, are just plain boring!

    That's all he does :rolleyes:

    Whenever I see one with the mask, I fear that he'll steal my horse and turn me into a Deku Scrub.
    This is an MMO, not a Star Trek episode simulator. That would make for a terrible game.
