One of the first uses of the term "Creatures Community" was by [[Toby Simpson]] in a [https://groups-beta.google.com/group/alt.games.creatures/browse_frm/thread/bc4629f22a5e0c4d/38383c242ff126d2 newsgroup posting], although [[Lis Morris]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20010423113227/www.ricardo2000.homecreatures.com/interview4.html suggested] that it only came into popular use after [[CptSiskoX]] and the Avenger Squadron attacked [[alt.games.creatures]].

An annual event named the [[Creatures Community Spirit Festival]] began in 2004 as a way to bring life to the community, and it is still going strong today.

Lis Morris was, and still is, one of the most amazing developers in the Creatures Community.
 +
 
 +
Her more notable projects include the [[Canny Norns]], the [[Hippy Norn]]s (a [[Creatures]] [[breed]] which turned drive decreases into energy), and the [[Infirmary]], the first [[third-party]] [[metaroom]] for Creatures 3. Many of her projects influenced the way the developers of today look at [[genetics]] and [[CAOS]].

===[[HomeCreatures]]===
  
HomeCreatures originally came about in the summer of 1999, with only a large 'Coming Soon!' splash and the promise to become one of the most successful community hubs to date. It was one of the first 3rd party sites to have its own domain (one other being CreaturesLife.net). Soon Miff was offering hosting at HomeCreatures, and many who had been use Geocities and Xoom jumped at the chance of hosting at www.yourname.homecreatures.com. Unfortunately, HomeCreatures went down and took a lot of sites down with it. Some were revived, but others are only a fading memory, which most of us will fondly cherish.

Creatures Caves is a website with a forum, news, downloadable content, a gallery and [[bibble]]. It's also possible to adopt a virtual [[creatchi]] to take care of. Although slower nowadays, it is still active.
