*The Desert Ettin does not have a fight or flight organ, or the genes associated with the fight or flight organ in norns, adrenalin does not increase their fear or anger. (Errata: Originally I had this as the Gonad organ. Thank you, Grendel Man!)
*Anger and loneliness have no meaning to the Desert Ettin. It decays instantaneously in their systems.
*The Desert Ettin's Central Nervous System is generally more sensitive to fluctuations in its drives. (Except hunger for starch).
*Genes associated with mating switch on at adult, not youth, as in norns.
*The Desert Ettin is born with more baby fat (glycogen, muscle tissue, adipose tissue), a higher concentration of antibody 1 and ettin nitrate, but without antibodies 3 - 7.
*The Desert Ettin does not have genes breaking down antigens 3 - 7 into antibodies and their side effects. The Desert Ettin is only susceptible to antigens 0 - 2.
*The ettins possess neuroemitters making them crowded and fearful and giving them a shot of adrenalin in the presence of norns and grendels. Ettins have a more fearful response to grendels than norns do, but are even more scared of norns than they are of grendels!
Half life:
*Ettins have a higher half life of adipose tissue.
*The half life of arousal potential is almost doubled from Civets, up to 78 from 47.
**The half life of arousal potential in the Civets equates to 5.2 seconds, and the new value in the ettins is over 2.1 minutes.
*The unused chemicals 14, 44, 49, 50, 185 and 186 have had their half-lives set to 0.
*Alcohol's half-life is increased to 79 from 68.
**2.1 minutes instead of 28.1 seconds.
*The half lives of antigens 3- 7 and their corresponding antibodies have been set to 0.
*Coldness decays faster in ettins' bodies, in 8.6 seconds.
*The half-life of loneliness and anger has been set to 0, down from 64 and 65 respectively for the Civets.
*The half life of sex drive for the Ettins is almost doubled, up to 73 from 46.
**1.1 minutes, up from 5.2 seconds.
Reactions
*Ettins are slightly more efficient at extracting amino acid and glucose from protein and starch.
*Ettins are slightly less efficient at converting glucose into glycogen.
*Fever toxin breaks down to cause stress and hotness.
*Antioxidant + CO and ATP Decoupler + Medicine One and ATP Decoupler + ATP and prostaglandin breakdown reactions are mutable, duplicable, and delete-able.
*After the youth life stage, stress reacts with the life chemical to deplete stress and shorten the lifespan.
Stimuli
*Ettins get more bored when they are disappointed.
*Ettins get crowded, not angry, when they are hit.
*Ettins do not get wounded when the hand slaps them, and suffer less fear and pain.
*Hitting others increases crowdedness (it decreases crowdedness for norns) and also increases fear. Does nothing with anger.
*When they hit a wall, their reaction is to look at the wall, rather than retreat from the wall, as in norns.
*They do not recognise opposite sex tickles as creating arousal potential and reducing loneliness and crowdedness.
*They do not have the 'swearing lets off steam' gene.
*Doors and lifts give stimuli from babyhood.
*Getting a machine obliterates boredom and comfort and slightly reduces crowdedness.
*Being at home reduces fear and pain, as well as removing 'comfort' and making them slightly bored.
*Being hit has significantly less wounded attached to it.
Instincts:
*The Desert Ettin instinctively runs from norns when frightened.
*They know how to use lifts and dispensers from an earlier life stage.
*They run from grendels when crowded.
*They approach ettin home when scared.
*They instinctively get gadget when bored.
*They instinctively approach ettin home when tired.
*They instinctively drop gadgets when tired.
**These two probably work together.
*They instinctively both approach and run from grendels when afraid.
*They instinctively approach norns when crowded.
*They do not approach norn when lonely, or express themselves to norns when angry, or hit grendels when angry.
*They do not push lifts, machinery, buttons, toys or tools when bored.

Correction: Ettins are missing the Fight or Flight organ, not the Gonad. The Gonad controls breeding, and as such is present in all the creatures.
ReplyDeleteThanks for that - I must have gotten confused by the numbering. I've fixed it now in the main text.
