Editing Water

'''Water''' is both a room type and a chemical, both of which can be found in later games of the [[Creatures series]].

==Room Type==
There are many bodies of water in [[Albia]], although in C1, it was purely for aesthetic purposes - lapping gently at the [[submarine]] cave and so on.  In C2, it became an actual room type with properties (like making your norns drown...).  In [[Creatures 3]], the [[Marine Terrarium]] is made up almost entirely of water ([[salt water|salt]]), and there are [[fresh water]] ponds in the [[Norn Terrarium]] and [[Jungle Terrarium]]. 

Most of the bodies of water in the Creatures games are inhabited by water-specific [[animal]] life ranging from [[fish]] to the elusive [[Borland]]. [[Creature]]s whose genetics aren't adapted to breathe underwater will drown in this element.

'''Did you know?'''  The [[Aquanorn]] for C3/DS is adapted to live underwater and eat mostly [[critter]]s. It can even swim!

==Chemical==
Water is also a [[chemical]] found in the bodies of most [[Creature]]s in all games except C1.

In C2, [https://wayback.archive.org/web/20080705023140/http://meliweb.net/creatures/2formulae.htm according to] [[geNorNics]], water reacts with [[alcohol]] to produce [[dehydrogenase]].

In C3/DS it is used in the respiratory process, and also reacts with hotness and [[fever toxin]] to reduce fevers.  Occasionally, [[fever toxin]] and some [[antigen]] infections can cause the creature to dehydrate so much that the creature suffocates.
