I had this idea come to me very randomly but - what if we could attach pups to our working wolves ?
Going into the mines ? attach a pup to grab extra stuff or just get another wolf receiving xp (I understand throwing a baby in the mines is unethical, dont try this at home)
Fishing ? give that pup a rod !
etc, etc
Maybe they don't go out on hunts or fight in campaigns but - wolf pups need to learn alongside adults on how to survive !
Maybe they are in place of Companions on those professions (fishing, mining) maybe they can be attached to crafting or cooking for extra rewards for them helping out !
Notes:
- perma pups and non perma pups can do this
- maybe pups use stamina like the adults, but need to rest it off instead of eating to full again (to balance the idea of a puppy just.,...working all day LOL)
- maybe pups receive xp and / or extra items from the profession while attached
- gives an extra use for perma pups / something to do while waiting all week for them to grow up
- has a set cooldown to switch apprentices on a wolf
- cant use pups listed in the market or attached in trades as apprentices, of course
Nothing too crazy of an idea, just thought it would be a fun ...accessory ? I understand that hatchlings on FR don't have any use, and therefore LW pups dont NEED a use but...just seemed like something fun to add, since we will eventually be able to dress our pups (mentioned in the poll to be done eventually even tho the vote didnt win priority)
Imagine little puppy apprentices ready to learn :3 if u dont like the idea thats totally valid ! thanks for lookin'
