Stories Tips

What are some stories about the achatina? Memorable achatina stories, wild encounters, and fan fiction.
hi guys, I just wanted to cover some random stuff that I have read.
Welcome to the Dododex community Dubxshrimp!! I’m also pretty new here lol. I wish you luck on your stories!! I haven’t read any yet since of my inactive-ness, but I’m looking forward to!!!
Also, can anyone give me a hint of where Ben is? I need to ask him what happened to Tina, since, as PrimalApex said, he combed up the history of Dododex.
I know this isn’t very complete, in fact, MANY of my messages aren’t. I apologize for that.

Damn gamer guy, that’s tight, I’m actually trying to grind a bunch of corrupted hearts on extinction rn (and its probably going to take a few years) but that’s really frustrating, sorry that happened :( I hope you can tame them soon! Maybe if they’re slow you can fix your trap and lead them in yourself? I’m not sure since I don’t know what kind of trap your using and I’ve never tamed a deino before, Good luck! 👍 - BoXXy
Hello moon! I’ve started to read clans, loving it so far! And thanks for the complement! So far your the second person to be having trouble finding all the chapters of dwellings so I’ll probably re post them (so far there’s only 4 chapters, 5 is ready to post but I’m not sure where to post them) I want to post them in the alphabetical order but I don’t know if that’s a community thing or somebody’s own way of posting story’s help? -BoXXy
SomeGamerGuy, Tina passed away, I honestly don’t know much of what happened, or how she died. It happened a long time before even Moon came here. You would have to ask Ben, since he’s combed much of the history of the Dex. But I can’t really give a good answer to this. I’m sorry.
Until Next Time

IM SO SORRY I FORGOT ABOUT DIS PLACE!!
Dwelling’s obviously won’t be coming on September 3rd because it’s already 5 pm and I haven’t posted.. BUT I WILL SOON!! probably tomorrow or the day after..maybe. Welp it’s coming when it’s coming I’ll notify y’all when it’s here. (Alphabetical order ASE filter ON)
Hey y’all I just wanted to share a story with you:
So I wanted a rockdrake on fjordur, so I spent 50+ years grinding levels to get to level74 (if your wondering why I am below 74 but had posted a comment saying I reached level 100? It’s because I made a new world on fjordur for something fresh instead of extinction) and once I was there I built a saddle for my buddy Andrew the andrew… yea, uh anyway I built his saddle because if you didn’t know, his saddle adds protection to radiation if your riding and the Andrew itself is also immune to it, so I took him to Asgard and Into the drake cave, I looked around at the start of the rock drakes and slowly picked them off one by one (I would get far away and then lure one drake away from the others for less trouble) healing in between every few drakes, and finally saw a level 51 drake egg, now, I’m always getting 5-15 level eggs so i decided to settle on a 51, although I would have liked an 100-150 egg, so I dismount for just enough time to snag the egg (had to be fast so I don’t get radiation) and ran for dear life, because if the both both parents of the egg are level 51 I get a good level 51 drake.. but it also means that two level 51 drakes (and every other drake nearby) will be charging at me full blast, so I ran like my entire save game depended on it, I made it out of the cave and teleported back home before any shadow mane saw me (thankfully the drakes gave up the chase halfway in the cave) and ya know what happens? The game crashes! Stupid ark crashes like stupid ark does, and I logged back in thinking my drake egg was totally gone and I’d have to do it all again… nope! Turns out it saved right as I teleported out of Asgard! Still gotta make it home again but at least I keep my 51 egg. -BoXXy
BoXXy, Thanks to the new update!!!
Also, don’t worry about it, you’re good!!! No one usually posts their stories in Achatina because of this problem. Achatina is the hub for all of the readers and writers to talk about stuff they’ve read, or random things and so on(mainly because, no one actually posts Ark stories about their tamed Achatina in Achatina. Like at one point, someone was posting IRL recipes in here to get activity)!!! I’d probably suggest that you might not post stories in Achatina though, and try reposting them in one of the other creature pages. Because like you shown, people will post here daily. So stories will get severely drowned out by people chatting and so on. And to get around when we posted chapters, we’d post something small saying ‘Ultimus Chapter so on and so forth has been posted/released in Angler’ and such so that way people knew we were still releasing chapters. And 9/10, everyone saw could see the posts. So posting 2-3 times a day isn’t bad, honestly it’s quite nice to see so much activity come back to Achatina these past couple months!!! Heck, we use to post the most completely Ark unrelated things in here, and at our peak, each of us would post 3 times a day. There were so, so many posts coming through here back then, that we would get lost in other peoples conversations and lose the conversation we were just in. So your posts are pretty okay and our easy to keep track of other people’s conversations. Most things considered, I’d just say move your stories to a new creature page so they don’t get buried like I did.
And if you still are worried about hogging and throwing too many unrelated conversations in here. We did make a solution to that because we thought of the same thing years ago. And it involves the Fandom Wiki I mentioned earlier. There is a discussion board that we talk in over there. It’s more convenient to read conversations and we have a lot more legroom to talk about random things all the time. You do need a fandom account but it’s not intrusive at all, and most people can peer into the posts we make without an account. But, you don’t have to join, it is an option, but you’re doing nothing wrong by posting two to three times a day in here BoXXy!!!
And this goes for everyone here too!!! You all can post how much you need to or want to in here!! No one will stop you, and you aren’t gonna bury anyone’s true Achatina stories, because there aren’t ever any in here!!! So post what you need or want to!!! It’s okay to!!!
Anyway, that’s it for me tonight I think.
Until Next Time!!

Boxxy, okay, so there are six clans!! I guess will have to just wait and see who they are then!!! Thank you for the help!!! I can't wait to read the next chapter of The Dwellings!!!
Also, I had no trouble understanding either of these stories!! And so far, your stories are very good!!! All I would say is dialogue should be more separated from one another on new lines, but otherwise your story is very good so far!!! And I don’t think they’re trash!!!!
And to your question; Yes, Moonflight (or Moon for short) is still very much active. She has finished The Obelisk, but is not finished with the universe she’s wrote in (although it has went through a soft reboot since she wrote The Obelisk.). Currently she is working on three stories within this universe, Clans, Pandora, and See. With a fourth story coming sometime when she’s finished the other said three, which also happens to be the remake of The Obelisk, called Rune.
I can’t wait to read more of your stories BoXXy!!!
Until Next Time!!

Uh,,,, lit just read somebody passed away? Sorry for whoever knew her… honestly don’t know what to say, I uh also never expected to see a post on here about that kinda stuff.. 😢
R.I.P. may Tina Rest In Peace and love. I didn’t know her so I can’t say much else.. regardless, everyone deserves to Rest In Peace.
Hello! I’m here to share a a true story for you! I’m typing this RIGHT after it happened:
So I live in extinction with my brother on split screen, in the badlands at the obelisk,
And you know that cave at the border full of bugs? Well, we decided to go there, but before all that let me take you back,
At first we spawned in the ice zone, we wanted a REAL challenge (but idk why ark itself isn’t enough of a challenge for us because it definitely IS and we barely ever get very far before giving up) and after a bit of dying, we got enough fortitude to survive the cold with some cloth armor, we found a cozy little cliff side to settle down and for a while, life was good
But after a bit the trees were running out and we needed a safer way to survive down the cliff (there was a path down but no dinosaur ever came up for some reason) and I thought the BRILLIANT idea of trying to tame a level 20 dire wolf with a bola and bat, so me and my brother ventured down and found one, long story short we EVENTUALLY got one, I named her Bella, Bella miracle because at the time she would completely change the way things would go, no more Going down for resource and dying to wolf or deadon And for a while, life was good.
I decided eventually that I wanted to take me and my brothers dire wolf on a hunt for a snow owl, at that point we had metal stuff and I had a crossbow with about 30-40 tranqs, I didn’t want to build a trap and couldn’t build a net projectile, I would have to shoot and track, and that actually worked! The snow owl I knocked out was a level 2 but I was just happy it was low enough to tranq but at that moment 5-6 deadon came, they didn’t seem to see the snow owl and went for me and my brother, I was scared they would kill the owl so we led them to a river, the deadon all went for me and I told my brother to go farther down the river and log out, (this was so that I could lead them away and not drag him with me) and he did it, it was just me and Bella miracle, at the edge of a cliff that led to a trench full of water and no way out, in the end I ran out of stam and Bella died to the horde of level 20 and 55 deadon (I think I’m spelling that wrong?) but it was not in vain, I managed to jump down into a trench full of water the deadon ended up killing me, but there was no way out and they drowned In The trench.
But that wasn’t the end, I respawned and went to the unconscious snow owl taking only the leftover cloth clothes and cooked meat from our chest and went and fed the owl,
After a bit it was tamed and I traveled back, it wasn’t a long way and I met no dire wolf or deadon on the way, life was good
It was a few hours later we got my stuff back from the trench and built a snow owl saddle i named my snow owl Soren (he is now my favorite tame and I love him dearly) from the the movie and decided to move to the desert/badlands, the snow had minimal species and was covered in deadon and dire wolf and was becoming a difficult place to be, so I flew across the wasteland just skimming the sanctuary for minimal corrupted creatures and flew into the badlands, soon after we built base and got my brother back in the game, life was good, and a lot happened here and there but this is getting pretty long so let’s go forward a bit,
I painted Soren yellow and red, he looks epic now, we got a managarmr lvl 68 and gasbag lvl 50 named Khione and Anemio, Soren was a level 69 and I was a level 99, my brothers dire wolf died somewhere along the way, and I found the cave a talked about earlier, it was a sad memory, we lost my brothers lvl 70 velonasaur named Edmond rock, his very favorite tame ever, he loved him dearly and will be forever remembered, but we needed XP and wanted revenge! So we decided to try again to defeat the bugs and, most importantly, the rubble golem that was the reason Edmund died and we had a plan, we would use my gasbag with 344 oxygen to tank the damage in front, my snow owl will heal them whenever it was below half health, and the mana will deal the damage. It was fool proof, but this tip is VERY long, and I like leaving people hanging, so I will finish this in the next tip: - BoXXy ✌️Thanks for enjoying and I hope you read!
Hey gamer guy! It’s me BoXXy! I like that idea you posted, and also have played grounded (I really did try to get into it but eventually got bored with it) I’m a single player too! I’m literally writing this and waiting for a gasbag to tame (I needed a soaker) and for some reason it makes me happy to see people still just chilling in solo! I just figured I’d say some things! Have a good day :)
To BoXXy-
Thank you for checking out my story! So basically the prologue is set in the old Kivol kargi city. Kivol kargi means “Venom walker” in Wyvernian Speech. Kivol kargi is based off of dragons that are humanoids but this variant can spit out poison! The Kivol kargi are being pushed from their city by the Hiiva kargi. Hiiva kargi is “Fire walker” in Wyvernian Speech. Hiiva kargi are another variant of these dragon-people who can spew out fire! They are more aggressive than the Kivol kargi and therefore trying to conquer their city. Which they did.

Dude, I finally knocked out a palaeoctopus, I had been trying all day yesterday and all morning today, literally got up at 7:00 just to try to tame one early, and I found a level 9 one stuck in Corel, I really needed a low level so that it has less torpor because last time I got jumped by a level 60 and ended up spending 10 of my 100 bio toxin just to suffocate right before he went unconscious, I’m typing while waiting for this pala to tame rn, he was stuck in Corel and ended up going camo in it, so I went up and fed the bio, finally a knocked out pala, they all seem to spawn at the top of the water and never come down for some reason so I haven’t been able to tame one, though I had a billboard trapped one on land because I had read some beach bob tip saying lead to land and let it grab you, but that’s not the case because they don’t grab on land. -BoXXy
