With the Shellcore game being done, Iâve realized that this desciption isnât in line with what they really are like.
However, Iâll stay with that design I made for them in this forum game.

vote 1: try inventing agriculture again - Success (Magnitude: F) (Luck: 6) (Intelligence)
vote 2: invent writing on clay tablets - Success (Magnitude: F) (Luck: 13) (Intelligence)
Ageptians found out that sprouts of the plant grow out of the grains, and after some time they also discovered that they develop better when in the shallow waters of the river, so they started planting them; this caused the farmers to start accumulating increased amounts of favors, so they started carving on stone tablets in order to keep track of who owed what favors to who.

Description:
The felidians, also known as Londorifelis sapiens, are a bipedal species of carnivores that look a lot like cats(Felis catus). They are adapted to ambush hunting and stalking their prey. One notable thing is that they are sequential hermaphrodites, and can change between the male and female sexes at will.

a sizeble collection of featherhorns decided to scout the the surrounding area, they started with exploring the jungle to its confines, by doing so they found out about an herd of hexapod lizards that is only half the size of an average featherhorn and uses its tongues to grab plants to eat, they also found a short plant which produces very large blue fruits that have an hard exterior but a soft interior; in addition they found a vein of coal in one of the mountains that extends to the inside of the jungle, they also found a cave of crystals in which strange things happen: Sometimes a ray of light originates from a crystal, other times a flame envelopes one of the crystals for a few seconds. They found a cave of Iolia crystals.
Afterwards they decided to survey areas outside of the jungle and found a vein of copper in the farther mountains.
Some featherhorns wanted to harness the power of the crystals, they managed to find another cave of them but they still donât understand how to utilize them.

Adv:
Titans of the Ancient Past: Once members of this species exceed 90 feet (30 meters), they become dormant structures which can only become active if there is an adequate amount of excess food. - Unlocks special structure that doesnât consume building slots and uses 100 + 10% of food excess and can be used for one of three options (can only choose one option at the time for each settlement): Defense - Gives 50 + 10% fortification value to the settlement, Public Work - Lowers unrest gain from non-war sources and 0.1 stability to the region (caps at 0.5 stability per region), Mining Work - Increases the amount of a mineral resource the settlement can exploit.
Flight of the Dragonfly: Extremely quick and maneuverable flight patterns, which can be startling when the creatures are of such a large size. - +10 to ambush rolls, +10 to exploration rolls.
Stalwart Protectors: Extremely xenophilic, welcoming of new races. - +20% military power when fighting for another civilization with friendly relations.
Ambush Hunters: Patternings on exoskeleton make it difficult to see specific feather horns when it is their breeds time of day. Also quite the effective ambusher, with large scythe claws and webbing that can carry bio electric shocks - +8 agility, +7 strenght, +5 to ambush rolls.
Disadv:
Hangry: Increased Unrest/Unstability when food is low. - Lowers max unrest by 30% when there is a food deficit.
Pacifist: Lowered Strength when attacking unless Stalwart Protectors advantage is active. - -20% offensive power when attacking.
Tropics-born: Lowered Endurance and Agility when in below freezing temperatures. - -30 agility and -20 endurance in cold climates, pop generates unrest in cold climates, -15 agility and -10 endurance in arid climates.
Description: Large, long creatures, they never stop growing throughout their lifetime, only becoming stronger - but more lethargic. They are considered adults once they reach lengths of upwards of 30 feet, and by this time are covered in natural, scale like armor, and have an exoskeleton tougher than an iron clad beetles - not even a diamond tipped drill can pierce it. This armor is proportionately more durable as their size scales, practically indestructible and impenetrable by the time they are adults, even the joints being more than sufficiently armored.
They have a giant, pincer like tail, six legs and two five fingered arms, four fingers manipulatory and a long middle finger acting as a giant natural switchblade-like appendage.
They have spines on their faces, large exoskeletal horns and giant decorative feather like protrusions from nearby their four eyes in each side of their face, one main one and three smaller ones per side. They also have long antennae used for sensing their environment, even in pitch black.
They can go fairly fast, and have quick reaction time, and have large wings upon their back, similar to a dragonfly.
They also have the ability to lower their mouth plate, revealing their true mouth and mouth-arms, and spit a large amount of webbing that they then can conduct bio electric shocks through.
Their large size means they need a decent amount of food, else they go into a hibernating state, and if they are woken up and there is no food nearby they are destructive and very hangry
They are largely jungle inhabitants, and fare poorly in colder climates.
They also are known to have a molting period that can happen once every few years where there nigh invincible armor is shed so they can grow a new set.

There has been an attempt to make better use of voidspawn phisiology for martial purposes, some progress has been made, but it wasnât enough to produce results that are stable enough to be relied upon. At the same time an organization of scouts has been set up in order to better survey the forest for threats, in addition while scouting they found a coal deposit near Silvopidom; they also found the southern limits of the forest, after which an ocean expands.

magic dependency - Higher deaths and lower population growth in low-mana zones, vulnerable to anti-magic.
eldritch abomination - -10 to friendly interactions with other civilizations.
description: a species of eldritch horror that can never be illuminated enough to be lit up at all, can use its tentacles for pretty much anything including but not limited to: flying, yeeting buildings, holding up buildings after they have lost all structural support, armor that can move to protect weak spots, bladed weapons, battering rams, hammers, moving like a cephalopod or an arachnid, unspeakable tentacle deeds, etc. the downside?: they can easily die if they have too little mana, though thatâs not much of a risk in the middle ring since they absorb it faster than they can use it, they can photosynthesize at the same amount of sugar production per surface area as an earth plant in a cave with the only light source being a small rock with a moderately strong aura of âeat belgium and perishâ energy, though the cost of this is they will peel like an onion if they get too close to a star without proper protective gear. and due to being an eldritch abomination all xenophobes hate them by default, though as a result of that their neurons are extremely fast allowing for reaction time only a fly hopped up on adrenaline could top, their main visible defining trait is their glowing purple fingernails and their ability to slice the strongest of swords with a single tentacle by encasing it in purple glowing scales that fuse together into an extremely small line

Gaians invented a method of utilizing clay to give shape to vessels for storing food and water and then dry them in the sun; they also discovered that by putting dried vessels in an hole in the ground togheter with dry grass and fire wood and then setting it on fire makes them become more durable and better at holding water after the burning process ends. While gathering grass to dry a group of Gaians found a bunch of gray, geometrical rocks, that would later be known as Bismuth. After having produced enough dry grass to fit their needs they started thinkering with it and other objects; with it they invented a quantity of assorted commodity items.

Advantages:
Prolific - While they do only mate once a year the amount of young born from this process is tremendous however natural selection takes it course and often only a small part of the young make it. - +20% population growth.
Fluctuating colours - The species have unique ways of speaking to each other using their blood to flood areas of their skin plus being colourful this has added to their culture/reflected in their art or poetry often including vibrant colours (even ultraviolet to a small degree given their eye structure) - +15 cooperation, itâs more difficult for civilizations that donât have Tâka to conduct espionage on civilizations composed mainly of Tâka.
Semi aquatic - Tâka have large chest cavity to hold in more oxygen to allow trips into the water in search for mollusc or hard shelled animals allowing for a greater variety of food that wouldât be possible if their werenât semi aquatic. - +15 endurance, increased food production from aquatic sources.
Disadvantages:
Delicate young - While they do make large batches of young at a impressive rate during their mating session their young require a very specific kind of nesting to promise a large part of the batch survives which one is being in foam from their parents or submerged in water - The advantage âProlificâ is active for each settlement only if special nesting buildings are built according to the settlementâs population, 1 nesting building can support 5000 population.
You colourblind or something? - While Tâka posses the ability to see ultraviolet and such vibrant colours thanks to their eyes this can appear badly in their art of poetry appearing dull to a wide range of other species that for Tâka is vibrant and full of life. - -10 charisma with non Tâka civilisations
Description: Tâka is semi aquatic species who switches between bipedal and quadrupedal when suited for the task at hand, their eyes have adapted to seeing ultraviolet light and thus have a âvibrantâ culture, this is reflected seeing as their skin can appear in ultraviolet rarely and range from a broad spectrum of colours they do travel in groups as of modern times but these are often family units, with the mother taking control of the group while the father is the lookout for danger and given their similar they can switch this so every group is different from each other in size and who is leading. They do posses a tail for their semi aqucatic life however on land it adds drag to the species which causes the quadrupedal and bipedal stance change to remain. Their broad in mouth and posses a small nostril that can be closed which while looking humanoid does not posses a feminine nor masculine body plan seeing they donât arrive from mammals and thus are not under the same strain as the females off mammals.

Some hunters started making traps in the forms of pitfalls in order to passively procure prey items, at the start there has been some initial pushback against this change, but over the years it has been accepted as a way of securing food when there have been extended periods of failed hunts. Limestone has started to be used for building structures, which produces sturdier housing.

Some Orbs found a decapodal beast half their size that is covered in an exoskeleton, while obserbing this beast they also discovered a plant that grows large purple roots under the soil after it dug out the roots of one such plants and started eating them. After having collected the plants for a while they also discovered that new plants can be made to grow from the bulbs that appear on the tips of the plant, but the plants seem to have difficulty growing in Kianti soil, seemingly there is a lack of some sort of quality in the soil to make this plant grow.
Afterwards the archbishop conceived the idea of a grandiouse temple that separates itself from the earth below and reaches the skies. But such an construction has been determined to still be outside of the capabilities of Endelgalrians they have an hard time keeping a rock bigger than themselves in the air for less than a minute, let alone a whole structure, but the archbishop quoted the teachings of Api, and said that if the mortal knowledge isnât enough then it will be expanded for this project to work. As some orbs were working on figuring out how to best give shape to rocks, they suddenly received a divine revelation on stoneworking and sculpting, the archbishop recognized this as sign of the approval from the trinity. The next day severeal orbs claimed to have had dreams in which Api told them of an art with which structures could be made more durable and hence bigger, but the teachings are fragmented and will need more research in order to fully understand them.

Theoxavian Gluttony - The Orbs consume lots of food to satiate their hunger - Higher food consumption
Apiloxian Impatience - The Orbs desire constant change in their environment and so unrest would grow if there is nothing new to be enjoyed - Needs to use resources per-pop in order to prevent unrest gain, how much pop a single resource can satisfy depends on the resource.

Following the discovery of sculpting techniques some chounoimas started using them to create large amounts of stone bricks and started using those to build sturdier housing.

4-dimensional creature - Their body is actually in four dimensions and not three dimensions like everyone else and is able to experience them.

They see the world in a strangely different way than usual (itâs not magic because itâs a real theory and there are some movies and games that describe how it looks at least) - +20% offensive power, lower deaths from battles against entities that donât interact with the fourth dimension, allows access to special technologies.

Description
A multidimensional species with a strange structure and unusual anatomy due to the complexity of an ordinary creature (three dimensions) it can be described as a creature with 4 pairs of complex limbs each of which has 4 symmetrical fingers and a particularly complex hand structure that is adapted to transition to any possible type of movement (swimming, flying, climbing [grasping ] and walking). Some say they have even more limbs hidden between dimensions, but the truth is that there are only 4 pairs of limbs that are simply very complex and coordinated.
They have a relatively hairy body that covers their entire body but under the hair are several layers of armored scales.
They have 2 pairs of chelicerae that are protected by a relatively long and wide beak-like mouth.
They have a long tail, body sails and a rough bump that can change its appearance on its face. All of this is used by them for communication (like lemurs), but because of the anatomical structure and the reality of multidimensional creatures, vocal communication is not a common thing to use among them and thus they are not able to produce complex sounds, but the physical communication makes up for it.
They have as many as 4 eyes in the front and a pointed and hairy ear.

After some unsuccessfull attempts it was found out that redcaps grow best when protected from the rain by the body of one of the larger tree mushrooms, as redcap agricolture started to expand it started to attract a small, eight legged animal which is covered in a carapace and is voracious; these vermin spread like wildfire and fly as fast as the wind. They caused the en of many cultivations, and have also completely infested New London.
While the vermin where setting home in New London a bunch of Uruk-hai returned from their research about the skullcrusher eels, apparently there was a sort of spawning ground nearby, but they managed to take care of it and drive them away. They also reported about having found clay, nickel and coal in the vicinity of New London.

Advantages:
Engineered weapons - Uruk-Hai possess a great regenerative capability and the average bloke can survive just about anything short of a decapitation if he gets lucky and there is a medic nearby to stitch him up. A few notable examples have even survived decapitation with only negligible brain damage. Due to their nature as having been created a soldier-race, the Uruk has a natural genetic memory which lends him not only innate understanding of combat techniques, but assists in childhood development. Particularly in the understanding of language. Slightly less commonly an Uruk can also receive genetic memories of weapon smithing, construction, and various sciences. - +15 endurance, +10% offensive power.
Shadow-born - Uruk-Hai, being creatures of the darkness, have a natural affinity for low-light environs, and receive a large boost to their stats when operating in gloomy areas. Whether it be the night or someplace deep underground. Their startling visage also inspires terror in their enemies, especially in locations without light. This natural affinity for the shadows also means that, while the Uruk does not typically carry much arcane potential within him, it is highly likely that the few proficient mages this race produces will have a large affinity for magics related to the shadows. Uruk-Hai possess natural dark-vision to allow them to see through the shadows in which they live. - +20 to votes regarding shadow magic.
Necessary alliances - Uruk-Hai recognize that they are not capable of everything, and that sometimes they must rely on assistance from others to meet their goals. This allows them to make close alliances and dare I say friendships with other goblinoid civilizations. They possess a natural affinity for goblinoids and can not only easily form pacts with them, but cooperate with greater efficiency. This natural affinity for other goblinoid civilizations allows Uruk-Hai nations to not only easily form pacts but cooperate with their allies efficiently and productively. - +15 charisma, counts as goblinoid.
Disadvantages:
Heliophobia - will begin to burn if exposed to direct UV light. The Uruk will die anytime between ten seconds and several minutes depending on the intensity of the light. Due to this Uruks have an instinctual fear of the sun and are reluctant to go out in daylight even when protected. - Military debuff during day time, gets killed from by a strong enough light.
Xenophobia - Uruk-Hai foster an extreme hatred of non-goblinoid races, as well as a general disdain for those who do not worship their dark gods. - -15 to friendly interactions with non-goblinoids.
Description:
A stark race of warriors created long ago on another world by ingenious sorcerers and scientists, who possessed not only knowledge of the arcane but knowledge of machines and genetics as well. However these learned peoples did not quite possess an affinity towards violence, and so nearly went extinct when a militarily advanced nation decided that it deserved more territory; and deemed the magically abundant Southern Lands to be an adequate morsel.
There was only one response available to the desperate republic, as their magics â while powerful â did not overlay with warfare. A new race would be created to defend their borders and their citizens from the encroaching legions.
They knew that it would sacrifice everything they stood for, and belgium their souls for daring to undertake such vile measures, but those reasonable voices were either silenced or kept in the dark as men willing to do anything for their people plunged into the darkness â eyes fully open and understanding.
There were many attempts to create the answer to their issues, producing many failed specimens doomed to a brief life of pain and misery. The experiments were hastened far beyond what even a madman would call reasonable, for within the month their capital was already under siege.
Finally their salvation came to them in the creation of a single stable specimen dubbed Ransom. Born of an orcish mother forcibly given human seed and subjected to nearly a hundred different magics and potions in order to speed the pregnancy and alter the boy.
He was a born fighter, strong, virile, and possessing a brutal cunning as well as the intelligence to keep it hidden from his masters.
Ransom would not be enough to turn the tide of the war by himself however, prompting the mage-lords to repeat the process again and again and again, using their first successfully subject as a template.
The soldiers â dubbed Uruk-Hai â streamed out of the capital building armed and armored with the finest equipment available, and managed to turn the tide of the war just when it seemed hopeless for the scholar people.
Great parades and feasts scheduled to last for weeks were held across the republic as the invaders finally surrendered three years later, giving their would-be subjects great swathes of their own land and treasury as reparations. But the celebrations were cut short as their own armies, having been trained and hardened in the cauldron of war, turned from the republicâs new borders and marched to the capital under the banner of their warlord Ransom.
All at once the protectors became the things which made protection necessary, the peopleâs saviors became the peopleâs doom, and slave became master.
Once Ransom sat upon the ivory throne of the former republic he made an immediate stop to the killing. The decision was not made out of any sense of right or wrong, but simply because they would require a token population of people who understood how to run a society while the Uruk-Hai as a race adapted to professions other than military. Once their population had grown and skilled Uruk craftsmen had been trained, those few mages who survived were unceremoniously slaughtered.
And thus was not only the demise of the Varangian Republic, but the birth of the Dusklönd belgium.

Some goblins wanted to control the forces of nature similiarly to how to those animals did it, so they started playing with their entrails; after a while they managed to find a strange substance inside one of their organs which they then discovered to be present in the air too: Mana. They learned how to use mana to manipulate the earth and make it move in unnatural ways, but it was not enough for them; in their hubris they gathered hundreds of those organs, and used the concentrated mana to perform a ritual to manipulate the earth on a massive scale. The ritual proved itself too difficult to fully control, causing a massive disaster which killed hundreds of goblins.
One of the goblins, named Kilbal, was flung severeal hundreds of kilometers towards the east by the ritual and survived, this little âvoyageâ made him discover a civilization of tall beings similiar to goblins but which have skin colors that no goblin normally has, and that seem to be able to control the growth of plants. After having learned of this, Kilbal ran back to Brooknar for days without any rest, once he arrived and told the rest of the goblins of his discovery, he died on the spot.

The commune found some large plants which have an edible stem and managed to find a way to cultivate them, they also noticed that the leaves of it hold some magic. A scouting team also found a grove of trees roughly the size of a Lohendral which had blue-grey barks and an unusually high concentration of magic was around those trees, so the scouting team did the only logical thing: they decided to eat one of the trees. Unfortunately, the grove seemed to not like the idea; when one tried to bring down a tree they were suddenly hit by a very strong water bullet, and any further attempts at approaching were met with an hail of pressurized water jets being thrown at them so they decided to retreat for the moment.
The advent of agricolture made the commune start having an increased interest in the pratical application of knowledge.

They are very friendly to other intelligent creatures, but if attacked, they will attempt to signal as many other Lohendral as they can, and will relentlessly fight the attacker(s).

Brickstone chunks were brought to Nomilans since bontorps thought their softness made them easy to be utilized for creative endeavors, but soon they noticed something: When the brickstone recieves direct sunlight, especially at noon, it becomes harder. They started experimenting and found out that heat increases the brickstoneâs hardness, and decided to use the brickstone to construct their houses.
While transporting brickstone some bontorps were attacked by disgusting beasts covered in black scales that had six limbs and used their tongues as spears that were three times their size, fortunately they managed to run back to Nomilans; unfortunately the predators seem to have followed them, they waited until the majority of the population went to sleep before attacking, screams could be heard all over Nomilans as a dozen of horrifying creatures broke inside of houses and slaughtered the inhabitants. Hunters tried to stop the monsters, but their attacks seemingly did nothing to the beasts, as if they had scales of stone, and were just tore apart by the tongues and claws of the creatures.
The beasts stopped their massacre only when the suns were beginning to rise over the horizon, as they retreated they took some of the corpses with them.

Description: Bontorps are a group of fungus about 60 cm in height that live in close-knit communities, displaying a surprising level of intelligence. Despite their mental acuity, they are physically frail, possessing minimal strength and agility. Their semi-Hivemind allows for seamless information sharing, fostering a cooperative nature among them. Bontorps release spores during reproduction, expediting population growth. However, they are particularly susceptible to magic, which induces stress and can even incapacitate them. Additionally, their heightened mental activity demands increased nourishment. This harmonious species prioritizes peace and eschews conflict, considering it a needless diversion.

They found Haltisite (far), silver (far-close to haltisite), Clay (Close).
Scoutings of farther away lands revealed a patch of haltisite: a brittle, brown rock that leaves a brown dust on whathever it touches and a vein of silver. They also found clay deposits closer to Veriturbs. In addition to the resources the scouts reported the presence of good position for a settlement, so after some arbitration 600 members were sent to form a colony on the location.
After some time they successfully settled and the resources started flowing from the two points. Because it takes multiple days to travel between the two settlements the solidarity and cooperation between shellcores started improving.

Description:
Shellcorae Particuale is a strange quasi-species of âorganismsâ made up from microscopic, self-assembling particles. The particles need to consume minerals to reproduce and harvest energy from surroundigs to continue functioning, if they do not consume magic, then theyâll end up turning into regular material.
The âShellcoresâ, as they are called, are divided into 7 subspecies:
-Blue/Navy, which bears the Abiotic attribute, known from staying dormant most of the time.
-Cyan/Azure, which bears the Positive Energy attribute, known from having advanced technology.
-Green/Verdant, which bears the Resistance attribute, known from lying and spreading propaganda.
-Yellow/Olive, which bears the Biotic attribute, known from living in anarchistic society.
-Red/Crimson, which bears the Imperial attribute, known from raising collosal structures.
-Purple/Violet, which bears the Negative Energy attribute, known from spreading the word of truth.
-White/Colorblind, which bears the Diplomatic attribute, known from not caring about color of the Shellcores.
All Shellcores share the same âCoreâ and âPartsâ blueprints, so they may look the same if they wish to.
Particles are only bond by magic, so if you shoot thru a Shellcore with an arrow, it will instantly âkillâ it. Because of that, Shellcores never engage in physical combat, no matter the situation.
However, death isnât the same for Shellcores as it is for Humans (for example). After âdyingâ, Shellcores will reassemble into a near-invisible cloud of particles, and subcounciosly reassembly into their more physical form at the nearest place they deem to be safe. Shellcores can only really die if they run out of magic, particles, or some vicious spell is used on them.
Shellcore have the ability of harvesting their own âShellâ layer (the layer whose main purpose is to protect the more delicate âCoreâ) and then, thru engineering which is second-nature to them, turning it into parts they can attatch to themselves in order to become stronger. Parts can be specialized for weaponry, abilities (such as temporary speed increase), drone spawns or passive abilities (such as speed increasement).
Shell can combine parts of Shell and an artificially-made Core in order to make Drone Blueprints, which will suck in any Shellcore particles from the surroundings and create a minion used in fighting and carrying resources - drones.
Shellcores cannot reproduce like the organisms of Earth, so they use another method - by producing enough particles and increasing their density in specific area, they can force the particles to assemble into a brand-new Shellcore.

Isnât your character canonically dead in this forum game?

iirc the machine keeps the brain alive. canonically.
wasnât it burnt to a crisp?
this was lore that over half the players in this forum game didnt get to see since it was in a private thread of a balance playtest for what would become londorion.
Since my character was fundamentally immortal, I survived the great purge, yet im in a giant hyper-advanced structure in the sky, with only my brain being there. IF my brain were to die, however, I would come back as the full individual, somewhere.
So if yall wanna unleash an immortal otter onto the world, you could probably try blowing up the giant sky machine thing
(@aah31415 ,@willow)
if frale allows this, and i blow it up, will the otter join my alliance?
nah id just make another industrial revolution and get off the planet
insert a second wall
also idek what the alliance is
