Evolution
It was a sign of a planet with new life, that their could be such a small bit of area with such a range of plant life and temperatures. The main part of the peninsular was made up of temperate rainforest, but to the west their was a hot jungle and to the east a mixtures of grassland and forests. To the north is a mountain with a lot of caves.
This is the start of life.
Two evolution points. You all live together.Last edited by Emperor Demonking; 2008-10-08 at 08:39 AM.

Re: Evolution
The Slinkers have began traveling towards colder temperatures as the ground is more pure and hard. This has began to allow them to strengthen there claws to assist them in digger through it easier. (+1 Natural Weapons:Claws/Teeth), in addition they have been able to become more adapt at surviving in the colder enviroment. (+1 Cold Adaptation)

Re: Evolution
In a flurry of feathers, the large flock of Vespii take off, their natural take them west to the heat, where it would be easier to fly. From below, they apppear as a large, shimmering rainbow of colors. Green, red, blue, and gold being the most promonent. Upon arrival at the jungle, the Vespii find use of the plants. They streach and weave vines of the forest in an enormous 2500 square foot roof over the canopy, on which they can build their nests. (+1 Intellegence) With the variety of plants, they quickly become more sensitive to each different feeling. (+1 Touch)

Re: Evolution
Slowly, the members of the Blockies awake from their slumber and gaze at the beautiful grassland around them. The sun is shining and all the members of the Blockies run around and play in the fields of grass, building up their strength. They also play running games with each other.

Skecsix
The Skecsix identified their surroundings, getting to know the inhabitants by their smell and taste. They mostly hunted smaller prey, but with their new groups they contemplated killing larger prey and sharing the spoils. They found success only in large groups at first, they avoided the largest of prey, usually only attacking creatures roughly their same size, but they sometimes came into fights with larger creatures, and occasionally predators, thus demanding increased physical capabilities to provide and defend themselves.

Re: Evolution
The Sanzants began to make their way down the mountain in search of food. Their hands were important in this undertaking. (Graspers +1 Intelligence +1) They found a close enough prey that this trip would become common for the time being and have yet to leave their mountain caves.

Re: Evolution
Woking busily, the Vespii finish their top curtain of vines. A party of three Vespii, one blue and two green, set out to view their surroundings. After a few miles of flight, they spot the Sceksix hunting game. Inrigued by the beings, they land on a nearby tree, and closely inspect the creatures.

Re: Evolution
Skecsix
The Skecsix move around a small group of herbivorous jungle-dwellers slightly larger than themselves, they were fat with stumpy little legs, but had some mean looking horns glinting on their heads. They grazed happily on some foliage about their height as the Skecsix maneuvered around them, well outside the range of their sense of smell.
The Skeksix, though blind, had adapted so that their scales, which covered most of their bodies, were a striped emerald color, of a lighter and darker shade, and as such they were hard to spot, especially when they moved through the jungle foliage. Once they were in position, their tongues all flickered out, forked as they were, which let out a light hiss, barely audible, perhaps the only sound they ever made, though they were only aware of it as the movement of their tongue in the air as they tasted the air and smelled it simultaneously.
Scents drifted through the air, imperceptible to less sensitive noses, and meaningless to any but the Skecsix, and they understood. The Skecsix closest to the prey bounded forward, attacking with it's jaws open and bit down on the closest herbivore before disappearing, and the creatures scattered. The wounded animal, now easily identified by the smell of blood coming from it, was easily herded by the other Skecsix towards a thick area of the jungle, where two Skecsix waited. When it stumbled in they set upon it and it was quickly killed.
The Skecsix gathered around and tasted the air, the order of eating was decided, and as their sharp teeth sunk into the creature the smell of blood was in the air, but one Skecsix noticed another smell, it raised it's muzzle, covered in blood, and the nostrils at the end flared, and then it tasted the air, and it's head swiveled in the direction of the Vespii, before it's turn came again and it took another bite.Caesar Asmodeus by Andraste

Re: Evolution
In a rush of wings the Caragens took to the skies to find food for themselves soaring on thermals to conserve energy occasionally diving down upon an animal small enough to be lifted into the air and flying towards a tree where they would eat it then fly back up to the skies to join the flock(Stamina +1, Dexterity +1)

Re: Evolution
The small blue Vespie, curious as it was, flew twards the Skecsix and hovereed in front of it's face for a moment, cocked it's head to the side, and flew back to the tree with the others. They decided to return to The Flock for now. These creatures were a tad too brutal for them.
Back at The Nest, they joined with the others, and began scavaging the various fruits in the jungle. They quickly grew fond of a round, blue fruit, and have a large pile, about five feet tall, of them.

Re: Evolution
Xanven
The Xanven play in the coastal waters just off shore, occasionally going up on the beach, but not much further. Beyond the stretch of golden sand was the jungle, a dark and forboding place to the Xanven. And so they spent most of their time in the water.
The tides are strong just offshore, and with the currents come many smaller fish for them to feed on. Occassionally a larger predator will come along as well. At these times, the Xanven work together to either drive it off, or kill it is possible, using their sharp teeth and superior intellect. Fighting within the current strengthens them.

Re: Evolution
Skecsix
As the blue Vespie flew up to it the Skecsix, the Skecsix flicked out it's forked tongue and tasted the bird-like creature before it flew off. It stored it and committed the taste to memory. When they finished eating the creature, they found the closest source of water and drank from it, washing the blood from their faces so as to clear their senses. Afterward the Skecsix that had tasted the creature informed the others about his sighting, and they all flickered their tongues together so they could find it's taste.
They searched through the jungle, their tongues slithering out of their mouths, hissing as they tasted the air, and their nostrils flared as they searched for the taste-scent, their heads held high. Eventually they found the canopy. They could not see the lack of light, but they could smell an odd collection of foliage in the trees and they picked out the scent of the bird creatures on it. They released scent markers so that they could identify the area that this nest was located in.Last edited by Lord_Asmodeus; 2008-10-08 at 05:23 PM.

Re: Evolution
Some of the bacteria left the hosts that were currently inactive to find new creatures with which to co exist with, and they eventually came upon the area in which they had sensed the most livwe (Ie. The Jungle DUH!), and began the process of entering the minds of all sentient thinking creatures that their small colony could manage in these harsh conditions.

Re: Evolution
From the high quilt of vines on top the canopy, the Vespii watched as the large Skecsix walked into their territory. They narrowed their eyes, and flew down, landing in a ring on braches, around the Skecsix, watching them closely.

Re: Evolution
As the creatures flew around them they will notice a message being broad cast into their minds.
"Accept us into you, and embrace the glory that is your birht right."
As this message is broadcast a temporary boost of intellegence entrer there mind (Ie./ Some of the bacteria suicide to allow the temporary symbiosis while not allowing the creatures to fully symboize.)

Re: Evolution
Skecsix
The Skecsix note the creatures flying around them, and they walk around the clearing, tasting the air, one of them climbs one of the trees, and begins smelling the canopy, marking the scent of nest area. It climbs back down and they all stand together flicking their tongues together sharing the taste-scent. They walked around the clearing, identifying themselves with all the plants in the area and the smells of the place.Caesar Asmodeus by Andraste

Re: Evolution
As the bacterium broke into the mids of the Vespii, hundreds of curious minds call back.
"What is this?"
"How did you get in my mind?"
"Birth right?"
"Who are you?"
"Get out of my mind!"
Not all of them seem mad, but the one's that aren't seem just curious.
Three small Vespii fly up to the Skecsix that climbed the tree, and begin flapping air into his face. Although it doesn't seem thretening, this is the Vespii's 'warning'.Last edited by AetherFox; 2008-10-08 at 06:01 PM.

Re: Evolution
Skecsix
Before climbing down the Skecsix snapped at the birds, obviously not trying to hit them, and it emits a pungent but quickly fading burst of odor, to emit annoyance.Caesar Asmodeus by Andraste

Re: Evolution
The Vespii stand stock still, thrying to deal with both things at once. Their conciousness sceam out as one.
"STOP! WE HAVE AN INTRUDER! WE MUST SPEAK WITH YOU AFTER!"
The Vespii then decend apon the climbing Sceksix, biting and clawing at his eyes and face. The Vespii that could not attch themselves to the Sceksix quickly form a flying ring around him, to stop others from joining the fight. The attacking Vespii Begin to carry the Sceksix upwards.

Re: Evolution
Skecsix
The Skecxis bites and slashes around itself, whipping its long dexterous tail out to smash Vespii from the sky as it climbs quickly downward, other Skecsix climb up and begin assailing the other Vespii, batting them out of the way using their increased size. A few Skecsix begin climbing other trees and moving over the canopy to come from above, biting and clawing at the Vespii, mostly trying to drive them away as they pushed downwards.Last edited by Lord_Asmodeus; 2008-10-08 at 06:22 PM.

Re: Evolution
The Vespii quickly fly up past the canopy, and high in the air. Although a few of them are damaged, only two have died. The Skecsix they clawed remains on the ground, bleeding. The Vespii call out to the mysterious bacteria.

Re: Evolution
"we shall do our best."
A few of the remaining bacteria voyage out to the closest of the attackers.
"You must leave. This is not your territory, and there are many more of these beings coming. Larger, and stronger they are as big as the largest of your kind, and some many times bigger."
