Jaguar: Difference between revisions

There is only one jaguar in [[Shipwrecked and Single]], and her name is [[Mata]]. She is also the only jaguar that appears while playing the game. She appears in a location called [[The Crossroads]], when the player's Sim passes through the area, led by [[Winford Rhinehart]], who says that "the player should not be afraid of the wild". Later in the game's progress, after the player's Sim has befriended the locals, [[Amanaki Tama]], the village shaman, got her to guard the way to the Cursed Village, were the player is supposed to go to retrieve [[Fangaloka Manave]]'s drums. The player must "gain her trust" before they can proceed into the village. This is done by drugging her with a Nepeta leaf found in the Shaman's hut. After the player does so, the way to the village opens, and Mata disappears.

Jaguars cannot be found later in the story. They may have intended to be included in the game, as various descriptions in the game mention jaguars. Although the player can't see the jaguar they can download a [http://lycanwolves.webs.com/adoptingjaguarsother.htm mod] that allows players to summon jaguars, although they have a few interactions, as if their character file is unfinished.

*Mata's name, as stated in the game, means "eye", and according to Amanaki Tama, it was given to her because of her ability to sense the player's Sim. Mata is both Malay and Indonesian which also means eye.
