quick fix about the "game ends" ruling.
Crisis will be rolled starting at the 6th turn. You can view the last thread to see what "crisis" means. Basically random events that impact and change the planet.

Ayyy here we go. Definitely interested in this one too. Here's my submission for this one.

The Gloupes are creatures that have just crawled from the sea, and are only just adapting to the land and brackish mangrove swamps. They mostly feed on washed-up carrion and specialise in picking at corpses when they can, developing strong stomachs and strong jaws. Their bodies still betray hints of their aquatic lineage.

And they'll start in the first shallows tile on the West continent, right by the edge of the ocean.

Hell yeah I’ve been waiting for this

The Pekit

The Pekit are a large, slithering invertebrate that, despite his size, does not directly hunt his prey. On the contrary, it tends to go after severely wounded members of a species or already dead ones.
Its diet is rather unique in that it feeds off of not meat, but instead heat and a special substance that cab be best described as one’s “soul”, defying other attempts at classification.

The Pekit travels in swarms, nesting underground during the day and slithering under the moonlit sky to prey upon sleeping targets.

Soul-taking isn’t lethal in itself, but rather the sheer gluttony with which the Pekit take it: a single individual’s fill will leave the prey dazed and weakened, but able to soon recover. But a full swarm might very well damage their prey lastingly, or leave behind nothing but a corpse.

They breed by splitting when a Pekit grows large enough to do so, simply making more of its species.

Its claws are for simple ease of mobility and climbing, not fighting

Sup, this is the Twisky's friend.

The Smegmo

Born of harsh tundra and ice, the Smegmo are intelligent ambush predators that draw prey in with their oscillitating, hypnotizing rings.

Resembling the snow around them, they submerge themselves beneath snow or ice as a form of rudimentary camoflauge until they detect nearby prey.

Their undersides are as equally perfect at camoflauging them in icy water, their lower halves burrowing through the ice while they lay in wait to idley filter feed on zooplankton stuck to the bottom of the ice.

If I can I'd like to start on the bottom left arctic tile

Rolled 7 (1d100)

>>4946647
Knew it was a good idea to follow the game after I left Sprungulus here if you couldn't tell

Anyway, here's my addition:
>The Sanic
The sanic evolved from a basic bottom-feeder type in the Western shallows, having developed as a filter-feeder species that ate all kinds of organic matter (Plants, lesser microbes, the dead) have allowed it to survive in any underwater habitat, however, it's true strength lies in it's specialised tail, which is able to be unfurled and twirled at such incredible speeds that it's able to traverse through the waters with incredible ease, or crack it like a defensive weapon.

It currently resides in the Shallows Hex-space: 5-> and 5^ going from left to right

Overview:
-Omnivorous focusing on dead/rotting-matter
-Focus trait on tail please
- I am not sorry for the abomination I am about to reveal

>>4947532
After re-reading the other player's comments, can I move my starting space to the Western Continent in the Shallows at: 4^ 10> going left to right please?

>>4947127
> "Soul Nest" -
These species devour the 'souls' of other species, thriving on their death and suffering.
IG: If your species are on a tile where other species are not thriving for being eaten/incompatible to environment - Then this species can spend an expansion point when expanding to build a "Soul nest". Tiles with nests grant that species a major thriving advantage. Nests will disappear if the species are eradicated, a tile can not contain more than 1 nest. A newly built nest will override the previous one on that tile.

>>4947146
> "Hypnotic Lure" -
These species use their camouflaged patterns and their toxic fumes to lure out and hypnotize their prey out of its hiding.
IG: These species can lure out and eat other species if their combined score of camouflage+toxic that is higher than the prey's digestion+sensors. These species ignore traits that increase prey's camouflage and speed when hunting this way. These species still needs to have higher digestion than prey's toxic and sufficient size.

>>4947524
This species enjoys the benefits of a strong sun and a rich environment, where they are able to reproduce and thrive in multitudes.
IG: These species gain a thriving bonus when it is in the equator rows (2 central map rows). Also, when expanding from an equator tile you can simply choose 3 adjacent tiles rather than roll for expansion.

>>4946672
> "Mold" -
Can never grow in size and starts at size 0. Attributes are not capped by size. Can eat larger species if Digestion is greater than their size+toxic (Sensors not required for eating). Main expansion only 1d3 at the start, yet each point in sensors allows these species to increase the maximum result of their expansion dice by +1, if they score over 6 they may use the last expansions to travel up to 2 tiles away

>>4946666
> "Carrion Scavenger" -
These species blindly follow the scent of death, eating leftovers of the unfortunate.
IG: If you have equal or more digestion than the toxicity of another species that is being eaten on your tile or if there is another species who is not thriving due to not having the environment attribute for the tile - This species is considered to be "Eating".

>>4947532
(you don't have to roll for first trait, its always trait as good as an 85 score)

> "Fast" -
Fueled by a never ending rush of adrenalie - These species are always on the move, Their only speed is “max” as they simply gotta go fast.
IG: Can outrun / outmaneuver enemies of its size. They can also outmaneuver predators one size larger if they have more advantages than the predator on the tile they are at. Outmaneuvering allows these species to avoid being eaten by its predator. This trait is negated + negates a speed trait of another species when resolving eating/eaten conflict.

> "Zombifying Seed" -
These species are a plant hybrid, inside them is a seed which can take over the bodies of weak or dying species to be carried by the zombified corpses to distant lands, where they would finally collapse..
IG: If you are in a tile with species that are larger and dying for being eaten / not attributed for their environment, then you can use your expansion action from that tile to expand to 3 tiles anywhere you like without having to roll for it. You can do this type of expansion even if you are not the thriving species.

>>4947713
> “Oceanic Ectoparasite” -
These species latch externally onto larger hosts for nutrition using their proboscis to pierce their skin, while also using their winged fins to reach them even from a great distance.
IG: Can migrate up to 4 tiles if those tiles are all traced through oceans. In addition, these species leeches on the body of larger species in their tile, if both species can not eat each other and your species has equal or more digest than their toxic. Being leeched causes the species to take a disadvantage, while granting an advantage to your species.

In return, when the boogle is hungry, it will simply use its tendrils to consume some algae off of its shell.

its great that you have your direction of how you want things, but try not to play QM role in this. I am giving a lot of thought to what traits im handing to the players based on what they want while also having to consider balance.
If you want to have a glimpse at how I make my decisions, you can check this out: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/19bImV60Jx8Ct5Q02q-V7jT5qfWqaZfutZTQOSJrMStw/edit#gid=0
So you will notice I am giving you a variance of the "Guardians" trait, but with a slight nerf due to your roll (Guardians require 80+ roll)

A good thumb rule for describing traits as a player would be to describe what you like to get, without using game terms or mathematics.
--

Sorry if Im sounding ctitical its not what I mean at all, just don't want you to misunderstand why im not following your trait recipe to the point, and only taking general ideas from it.
And with all that, here is your new trait :&)

> "Flowerpot Shelter" -
These species developed the capacity to shelter other smaller species beneath their large leaf and protect their environment.
IG: Smaller species that you can't eat and can't eat your species are considered "protected" by your species, and can't be eaten unless your species can be eaten as well.

>>4951358
Completely Ok, will only try to use word next time.

I really like the game and the way you're handling it, that's why I am playing again.
Btw I hope the idea of taking the nut again and evolve it completely different is ok with you

>>4951360
Its more than ok! Love the idea of seeing how nuts would evolve under different environments, can't wait to see what happens! C:

>>4951362
That and the nerf if i'm reading correctly implies "smaller" species which is definitely what I had in mind. Last time I was bothered a lot by predator able to feed on Tier 1 species, so I think this trait is great.

By the way, I don't see the migration murder button on your list

The Jungle Guts find themselves hopelessly unsuited to the harsh Volcanic Deserts, saved only by the fact that they have nobody to compete with. Eventually, they manage to adapt: the Desert Gut is equipped with a strong, thick intestine to pull itself along, a tough underside to make sure the terrain doesn't tear it up, and a specialized sub-stomach for holding surplus water and food.
The most important change happens to it's droppings: the sickly fluid it secretes is now full of undigested sand and gut bacteria, ready to become fresh soil.

These species have grown in size and developed long legs with sharp ends that help them crack the ice. Those legs however are still primitive and frail, and can barely balance their body.
IG: Can grow to size 2 and still thrive in arctic deserts, but take a thriving disadvantage while resorting to do so.

> evolve into new stage: Pekerok
Feeding on souls all across the continent’s southern lands, the Pekit grow swollen with the substance, and their appetite with it: their bodies lengthen, more teeth growing almost forcibly, splitting the skin open as the worm’s vessel struggles to accommodate their ever growing hunger.

As well as this, the creatures become bolder and bolder, now beginning to prey on creatures larger than they are, uncaring of losses incurred by the pack as dead Pekit will simply be harvested immediately after they fall

>>4952073
> "Cooperative Colonies" -
These species grow in size to visible colonies and work together as a singular entity, cooperating with other species of their branch to mediate the better outcome for their greater combined goals. However, becoming larger colonies makes them more visible to predators...
IG: These species can use 1dX(X=sensors) to expand even if they are not thriving, as long as the species who do thrive at the tile are of the same evolutional branch as this species. Don't get camouflage bonus for being smaller unless predator is 3 sizes larger.

>>4952202
> "Wave Glide" -
These species rise to the air using their wings after bursting from the waves with momentum. They glide around with speed towards new lands...
IG: Can migrate up to 5 tiles away if all tiles are traced through ocean (increased from 4).

>>4952327
> "Algae-Caps" -
These species have grown larger in size mainly due to their 'Cap' like structure which is filled with algae. Using a vast reserves of algae stored on their body, these species are able to survive in more extreme conditions.
IG: If a global crisis is supposed to eradicate this species, they get to roll a 33% surviving chance on for each species on a token that is supposed to be eradicated.

>>4952578
you didn't specify the tile, so i picked at random.
> "Soul Digestion" -
These species grow restless with hunger around its nests which must be always fed with more souls. Its duty to feed the nest emboldens these species to attempt and hunt species as large as they are.
IG: On tiles with soul nests which belong to this species, this species can eat species up to its size but take a thriving disadvantage while doing so.

The Gloupes continue to develop. They begin making forays inland, growing used to both solid ground and the wet marshes. Various little adaptations take place, such as the altering of their feet, developing heat-sensing pits, and gaining more sensitive spines to detect things.

>>4954843
> "Terran" -
These species developed the ability to sense heat and stand on their claw-like legs, which were used mainly for swimming and catching prey until now. However, their stability on their new legs is still lacking, and they are slower than other species in such terrain.
IG: minor advantage on land tiles adjacent to shallows. Can only expand 1d3 tiles from land tiles and migrate 1 tile less when migrating from land.

>>4954910
> "Mimics" -
These species mimics others both in behavior and in appearance, blending in between the lines of its opponents to remain concealed from predators. Mimicing is a very taxing ability, and it exhausts these species.
IG: Your species will blend in with another species of the same size if that species can not eat them and your species has more camouflage than their sensors. When you blend in with another species, predators can not eat your species unless they are able to eat both the species you blended with and your own species Your species also take a thriving disadvantage while blending in with other species to avoid predators.

>>4954971
"Walling Off"

rolling to evolve the Boogles nest to the two volcanic wastes and 1 land tile.

+1 Camouflage
With the oceans becoming quickly crowded with Boogles and Boog Efo, some Boogles flee to land, to avoid having to constantly looking at their horrifying brethren. By weaving their tentacles together into two powerful super tentacles (or legs as kids these days have taken to calling them) they are capable of standing up right, and by smearing mud and soil atop their heads, they are capable of culturing plants atop their head, although this is now used more for camouflage than for actual food.

These new walking land boogs are called "Boogies"

(Smegmo commented in discord, he can't post on thread right now)
>""Tentacle propulsion"
These species can throw themselves in a deep dive by quenching their tentacles all at once, granting them short bursts of high velocity in the ocean to outmaneuver their predators.
IG: Allows these species to outmaneuver predators of the same size in ocean tiles to avoid being eaten. Is negated & negates a speed trait of the predator if it has one.


>>4955041
> "Uncontrolled Velocity" -
These species can fly at high speed using their fin-like wings and jet propulsion. However, they lack the finale adjustments to control their flight, which causes them to reach strange and far places, or sometime completely crash and die.
IG: You can migrate up to 4 tiles away and expand up to 2 tiles away across any type of terrain. However, you can not choose the direction of the flight(DM rolls 1d6, 1 is north and rest goes clockwise) and the distance is always the maximum distance (2 for expansion, 4 for migration). If you land over the edge of the map, that expansion will be eradicated.

>>4955072
> "Static electricity" -
These species move erratically and therefor trap large charges of electricity between their many hairs. That electricity shocks any species that touches them, including their potential mates. Making the whole process of breeding extremely hard.
IG: Species that eat this species take a thriving disadvantage. This species can only expand 1d3 tiles with its main expansion, and takes a minor disadvantage as well.

>>4955118
> "Lava Blaster" -
These species are able to consume and hold lava from the volcano and weaponize it against their enemies by spitting hardened hot rocks. However, by weaponizing lava this species also harms itself, and many disastrous accidents happen when these species gets overly-aggressive and attempts to hold more lava than it should.
IG: in volcanic tiles with volcanic mountains, these species will eradicate none-thriving species that are smaller than their size and have equal or less camouflage than their sensors. Takes a thriving disadvantage on volcanic tiles with volcano mountains

>>4955242
> "Weaved Legs" -
These species can weave their tentacles together to form a strong "leg" structure which allows them walk on land. However, moving away from their algae dependency in favor of land plants causes them to be less fertile and nourished.
IG: These species can thrive in land tiles yet take a disadvantage. They can only expand 1d3 from land tiles rather than 1d3+1 when using their main expansion.

>>4955073
It is c:
Sad thing is, by requesting to gain a size you've lost your advantage over the boogle-efo on the tile, who should be more thriving now since they are smaller. Its a solvable problem though if you invest abit into it.

The Pekerok in the shallows evolves into the Greater Peke, with a +1 to Size

The swamps were not a safe habitat for the Pekerok, for the first time finding it hard to hunt for souls as they once did, entire swarms going hungry for generations in the muddy waters as the fled the Saniks or fruitlessly tried ambushing them in their sleep.

Like before, their hunger triggered a change: their frames stretched yet more, their final energies being spent on developing new limbs to better navigate the swamps, their longer tail and frenzied hunger joining in to grant them a frightening speed.
Their lumbering charge might not be as sustainable as that of a Sanik, but the Greater Peke’s screeches and improved maneuverability lent a hand in allowing it to at least hunt a few specimens to survive another day

> "Rowing" -
These species trap air in their caps, and float across the oceans. Using their tentacle as paddles to row into an increasing distance.
IG: When expanding with these species, you can use 2 expansion points instead of 1 to expand to a tile 2 spaces away if the first tile is traced through an ocean.

>>4956392
> "Symbiotic Graft" -
These species can integrate themselves with the body of a larger species on their territory, merging into a one improved organism.
IG: You can "Merge" as a free action on your turn with other larger species on your tile if the player who controls them allows it and if both species can't eat each other. The created species will have +1 Digestion and a thriving disadvantage. It will be controlled by the host(other player), and will be worth 0.5 points to both players at the end of the game if it is thriving. The merged species can't evolve.

You can't build a nest there, your trait says you can only build nests on tiles where other species are dying. So im moving the nest to the tile where sonic is dying (south)

>>4956308
flyglidder cant choose where it expands. I instead RNGd it as trait suggests.

Also many of you guys don't use the "Secondary action" which allows you to expand 1 tile with each of your other evo's, maybe you do it on purpose maybe not. Just making sure you are aware tho.

> “Slavers” -
These species grow dependant in other small species, taking over their bodies once enough of it is infected the mold. These species use their enslaved bodies to feel their surroundings, yet this dependancy made them less able to do so when on their own.
IG: These species gains +1 Sensors if there is a species with less size than their digestion on their tile. however it loses -1 Sensors when there aren’t.

Rolled 3 (1d5)

> ### NEW TURN

> Expand / Migrate
Roll 1d3+1 and expand to that amount of tiles from a chosen tile.
OR move any tile with a species 2 tiles away in any direction.


> Evolve
If you have 3 of the same species on the map, you can evolve that species!

After you do your main action(expand/evolve/migrate), you also get to expand 1 tile with each of your other evolutions on the map that were not activated this turn.

> Global Crisis events!
I will roll 1d5+X at the end of every turn. If the score would be 5 or above a crisis would happen. X grows by +1 each turn until a crisis happens, then it resets to 0. the game will end at the end of the turn where the 3rd crisis happens.

>1: Volcanic eruption
1d3 random volcanic wasteland tiles erupts, killing everything on it. Species on nearby tiles that are not in ocean, not adapted to volcanic environment and over size 1 will go extinct too.

>2: Solar storm
1d4 random tiles on the northmost and 1d4 tiles on the southmost rows will get Ionized by the solar storm, all none-thriving species on those tiles will die

>3: Tsunami floods
1d4 land tiles adjacent to oceans will become "Shallows", all species on adjacent ocean tiles will automatically migrate into the shallow tile.

>4: Meteor strike
1d10 random tiles will be hit by meteors, killing anything on those tiles. New "Crater" tile will be created as a new subtype biome of the tile it is on, craters can sustain life up to +1 size and allow 2 different species to thrive within. If meteor hits ocean nothing happens, if it hits shallows the species get eradicated but a "crater" wont be created.

> 5: Rise of the Kraken
A "Kraken" species spawn in a random ocean tile. They have the size of 4, and 1d4+1 point in each attribute (rolling 5d4 to check)
They have a trait which allows them to exist self sufficiently in size 4 on water. They eradicate everything they eat, and are eradicated if eaten.
They expand 1 tile in a random direction that has a species on it each turn. They stop expanding when there are 4 Krakens on the map.

> 6: Alien probe
An alien ship probes the planet, and abducts 1 tile with a thriving species from each player. Players get to choose which thriving species they give away.

>>4958334
Just to clarify, the roll was to check if a crisis happens, not to roll for which crisis happens.

No crisis will happen this turn.

Expanding Landic again

>>4958383
Expanding the North Ocean Landic into both the ocean tiles to the right and left Ocean tiles of it

>>4958334
A moulder was supposed to be on the sanic tile so i could evolve it this turn

>>4958404
Or just anywhere just so i have 3

Hoping my luck finally turns around, otherwise I’m probably screwed.

The G2s on the forest tile with Guts branch off and evolve. They gain (+1 sensors). These ones develop stockier, sturdier bodies to navigate the land, growing bright markings and rugged bodies. (Some trait to adapt to land). Credit to Mold’s player, who made this drawing for me.

Meanwhile with the free action. G3’s expand to the west into that empty land tile.

was hopping for digestion or something they are meant to be the attack "dogs" to my cultivated flora and i cant even evolve them as one failed free expansion so i cant really do anything of meaning or merit

>>4958404
mostly mad that my near incomprehensible rant was not interpreted
"just post my moves as question mark for atleast a update my plan was just evolve the slime and expand molder and all into 3 and then evolving them again for that tag team combo i go for and possibly evolve a third branch that will result in that every turn is a evolve action as they all have time to expand into 3 so they meet the evo criteria."

"my plan was just evolve the slime and expand molder and all into 3 and then evolving them again for that tag team combo i go for"

>"evolve the slime and expand molder and all into 3"

so that i can meet the evo criteria

>>4958334
So to be clear...
The gardian trait I got prevented the small nut to get eaten, but gives no priority of thriving to the protector species?

>>4958669
You are right, I have for some reason decided to interoperate it as "Toxic" since you "drug" those species.
I will fix it to digestion, you can change your action as if you had 1 digestion and 1 less toxic

Rolled 3 + 1 (1d3 + 1)

Rolling to expand G2 right most arctic

>>4958742
can i also have my molder from the earlier turn do its missed expansion? as its likely the spot i will evolve from?

>>4958716
Thats true.
It basically saves the OG nut, and due to the fact OG nut is smaller and was there first it thrives better.

Expand the G2 to the two adjacent Arctic tiles on the right. Free G3 expansion is to move to the ocean tile to the right. Left most G1 expands North into the ocean.

>>4958748
So species with the gardian trait got a self-detrimental trait that prevent them to expand basically?

>>4958753
Hmmm not really, If you were to evolve the flowerpot to get additional advantage instead of going size 3 castlepot, then you would be thriving over the OG nuts while also protecting them. I can also see some options for you to free the new evo and make it thrive but its not an easy route. Oversizing is sometimes not a good thing to do right away, but it usually pays off at the later stages.

>>4958747
if i can use my earlier expand from last turn for the molder i would like to put it on the sea tile right above in the sea next to the two legged sanic

>>4958761
yes, but dont put it on any sanik tile as it would be unfair towards a player that already made their action.

Evolving flowerpot in the see sharig tiles with boogie and glider

+1 Sensor.
The flowerpot evolved sensory lianas and a mouth to eat other species

>>4958763
>last turn
its the one right above in the sea closest to the sanik just above my furthest extended molder
>current turn
and free expand the assimilated frog into the shallows and the base mold onto the volcano
i will most likely evolve the molder in the sea
