1. Yes, but in the next update the carp monster will be recruitable.
2. Possibly, not sure how I would go about that yet. (Possible idea that just came to mind is maybe bringing back Asher's basement expansion concept from the original game, just maybe not made by Asher if you get what I mean)
3. Not yet, that is a whole quest (that is sort of like the rebuilding of the snake den, but with different requirements and stuff).
as for the expansion i was personally thinking of clearing out another area of forest next to Leon's house and placing huts, tents, or other structures to serve as a divers housing for some of the guys. as the only bed in Leon's house is his own and it'd just make sense to me if some of the guys had their own living space (as to not imply that they sleep on the floor, or all pile into Leon's bed with him or even roughing it outside of Leon's house), though i understand this would not apply to all guys. and i'll admit this idea would likely be a lot of work, especially depending on how many more chapters and recruit able guys there are.
Ohhhh! Yeah, that does seem like a cool idea to have that be a thing! Although I am going to need to plan out how I want to do that since simply making buildings and stuff appear out of nowhere for a monster is a hard since RPG Maker uses set maps and I can't simply make it so if a certain switch/condition is triggered then a specific part of the map appears and making separate maps for each combination of every monster guy is out of the question for obvious reasons. If RPG Maker had a better way then the gold monsters temporary home would not look nearly as bad as it does now. Maybe what I could do is make like a little spot in the back of Leon's home that can take him to a camp for each monster guy (sort of like the falcon settlement maybe). This is probably going to be much later down the line if I do decide to do this.
Edit: The thought of all monsters just piling all on top of Leon during night a bit funny.
it already seems like Leon's home is it's own small settlement, so why not make a side quest to build one connected to Leon's home. the side quest can become available at the start of ch 3's lake zone, as that's the point i started to consider Leon's home and yard to be a bit crowded, and for each new chapter zone a new area could be expanded through a new side quest should any zone start to become crowded or should it be deemed reasonable to build special accommodations (like a dedicated lake zone for aquodic guys)
That does sound like a cool idea! I will maybe start making early plans to implement this idea. Perhaps maybe I can make a special time for Leon's home when using the bed where each monster can ask Leon for a quest to get their own space or if their quest is already done, will simply be around somewhere in the house and maybe interact with other monsters. (Based on the size of my current idea, this would probably be its own update or maybe something I do on the side of each update)
