action: rest for a bit
Try to move around the cliff, filter on the way and then try to rest somewhere away from living creatures.
Action: Keep by my rock eating tubomorphii, the cerceps exoskeleton looks hard to break and some primal fear keeps me from going near the jellyfish-like creatures
Out of interest Zenzone lost to Positive but Positive lost to Deathwake.
Originally, I wrote a round where Positive won and survived and the other two died. Positive and Deathwake drew which meant I rolled another dice - which was another draw - so I rolled another doce which Positive just won. Then Zenzone and Positive used the points which meant Positive ended up with one less point than Deathwake.
so technically i assisted Deathwake and we killed positive together.

Uh, sure, you could look at it that wayâŚ
Thanks for the new round Stealth! 
Action: Go after the Masticephalus and eat some if I can catch them.
Iâm not exactly sure what you want for your legs. How do you wish to improve walk stamina?
well at this point they have paddles and arenât that long, if i remove the panels they will be more efficient on land, and if i can increase the leg length thatâs always good.

A gamma ray burst has hit the planet, particularly in the Northern Hemisphere. Many animals were killed by this fatal radiation. This was not the end of it for the gamma ray burst reacted with the atmosphere to severely reduce the ozone layer and fill it with acidic chemicals. A haze encapsulated the planet. This led it to be highly exposed to radiation from the sun and many animals in the surface areas perished from this radiation. Some also perished because of the acidity, not be able to form their calcium carbonate structures properly.
As a result of this, a few species have gone extinct that were either in the Northern Hemisphere, used calcium carbonate or lived in an exposed area. Cilistoma cummingsi, Cilistoma primus, Brachodes repodigitus and Cilistoma evcolius were all bivalves that lived on Aeaea until their extinction. An ocean-bound bivalve, Ostrapodia mollusca, suffered the same fate, although it is not related to the other bivalves. Pteryphysis volanus was a sea-faring, completely shelled creature with little tentacles and fins but it did not survive the event. Another victim was Coliteuthis carnivorus, which was a filter-feeding cephalopod with threads on itâs tentacles. Finally, the stony coral species, Nyctopolypus corallus could not cope either.
The most exposed area was on land, where a few fledgling species had occupied. Out on the rocks, with no plants bigger than algae for shelter, they had nowhere to hide and all three (Ktrie qualuntus, Ambulanus terrestrium and Deathwakeâs unnamed species) went extinct. It is proving hard to colonise land.
Eventually, after the extinction of eleven known species, the haze subsided and the acidity dropped. The ozone layer repaired itself and life went back to normal, minus a few species.
The temperature continues to cool very gradually as a result of the growth of plants on land. As the downwelling has returned to the poles in the last few million years, the deep ocean is now returning to a cold and oxygenated state.
Several new species have emerged and managed to survive the event; an Arencolus ratzenbergerii with freshwater tolerance, a deep ocean Pulchellia, a larger Rhipiella tropicae, a Hypovenator tropical without itâs notochord, an Octoplocamus temperatus with better chemoreception, a Salcaedis corcillum with better digestion and a Murenoides that has a closed circulatory system, better sense of smell and a stronger digestive system.

Ktrie qualuntus, Male Adult (EX)
Tartarus, Tropical Very Humid Barrens
The hot, humid air above the little pool at the base of the cliff is changing; a haze develops, tainting the once clear, blue sky. You duck into the little pool and wait there in the hot water. Something else enters the pool; an animal with a strong, pill bug-like, blue exoskeleton that ends in a fan tail. It has a head with antennae, mandibles and two pairs of eyes (camera in front of compound) as well as a pair of clawed chelipeds followed by four pairs of legs with large paddles and then five swimmerets [Ktrie qualuntus]. The other adult appears sluggish. Over time, you begin feeling unwell and dizzy. By this point, the other Ktrie has died and the water has dropped to warm. This dizziness only increases and you start to feel intense nausea. Your whole body starts to feel in pain, like itâs going to burst from the inside. One day you become so dizzy that you just completely collapse under the haze and never wake up. (3 = Your species is extinct, doomed to the pages of history. Please choose a new species. Remember: No Species Lasts Forever.)

Maurcolus repus (LC), Juvenile
_Deep Ocean
The scent of Masticephalus bathyus [ciliated filter-feeders with little tentacles and a jellyfish dome] permeates the dark, warm quite low salinity water from above. You swim up towards the scent, paddling with your legs and fan tail as well as bursting with your hyponome. Your antennae bump into the Masticephalus, which does not move away, and you use this to crush the little filter-feeder in your claw. Itâs easy to crush and you eat itâs corpse up. However, itâs a very small mouthful and you lose more energy getting to it than you receive eating it. You are now exhausted. The dark, quite low salinity water is still warm although it is getting cooler. You feel nothing but water around you. Scents drifting in the water to your antennae clue you in to what species are around you; there are several Masticephalus bathyus [ciliated filter-feeders with little tentacles and a jellyfish dome] around and above you, a Faryxoskulus bathyus [worm with tentacles] is above you. Below you, there is a Chartitesta bathyus [tube anemone] and an Ahyponomus minor [worm]. (3 + 1)

Maurcolus repus
Latest Mutations: 1 = Male and Female sexes, 4 = Remove foul taste, 6 = High pressure tolerance
Maurcolus repus evolved from Pholgnathus lancus and is another arthropod with six pairs of appendages, including steering arms and claws. It has the distinctive keratin rostrum, stuck between two antennae. This particular species inhabits the depths where, at the time of its evolution, it is the most complex species about. It feeds on the soft, sessile animals there, like sponges and sea anemones, crawling across the cold, dark ocean floor following smells with its antennae. To live in this environment, it has had to lose its swim bladder - as well as make some chemical changes - so it spends most of its time walking unlike its relatives which spent an equal time walking and swimming. It has no predators here which might be why itâs lost itâs foul fluid glands. However, food is harder to find and finding a mate is particularly troublesome, especially as this species only produces half the amount of eggs as its predecessors.
Status: Unlisted
Habitat: Deep Ocean (500 - 1500m below sea level)
Niche: Predator, Opportunistic Scavenger
Diet: Any fresh meat it can get.
Size: 11cm (length - rostrum to tail)
Nutritional Need: 186 x 11/100 = 20.5NP.

Intelligence / Behaviour: 1. Hungry > Search for food. 2. Food > Attack with mandibles and chela. 3. Tired > Rest. 4. Pain > Walk away. 5. Maturity > Reproduce.
External Features: An exoskeleton of ten segments covers the the skin, which contains blue melanin pigments. A keratin rostrum sticks forwards with two antennae on either side, which house odour receptors and chemoreceptors. Around the mouth is a pair of weak, horizontal mandibles. It has two eyes (camera eyes with calcite lenses that change shape and that have no blind spot) either side of the head. Behind these on each side is a (typical apposition) compound eye. Two chelipeds with weak claws are held at the front of the body, and behind these paddle-like steering arms, and there are four pairs of legs. The rear of the body has an exoskeleton fantail and below that a hyponome.
Internal Features: Each cell in the body contains a relatively small number of piezolytes. Aquatic spiracles, one on each side behind the head lead from the outside to the inside. Glands near the skin secrete a foul fluid. A system of muscles stretches across the body. Near the lower wall can be found the gonads as well as the protonephridium and near the upper wall is the enclosed, one-chambered swim bladder. Through the mostly lower half runs the monogastric digestive system, from the mouth through the tubes to the stomach and intestines. Ganglia in the head connect to a dual nerve cord along the dorsal half, which has many nerves branching off it to encompass the whole body. In the middle of the body is a hemacoel with blood through which an anti-freeze (xylomannan fatty acid and polysaccharide) flows and this is connected to a dorsal vessel.
Reproduction: Sexual Reproduction. External Fertilisation. 500 eggs per spawning.
Castes/Phases: Hermaphroditism.
Locomotion: Active (20NP). Walking. Can swim by paddling legs and fan tail as well as using hyponome.

Lepidoderes immortalii (EN), Juvenile
Coastal Midwater of Northern Tartarus, Temperate Shallows, Late Autumn
You are sat on a rock in a sandy plain, which is encrusted by an amorphous animal covered in pores [Tubomorphii primus]. The water is fairly murky, cool and quite highly saline. The water suddenly becomes cold in temperature and your movement becomes more sluggish. However, you are able to keep eating the Tubomorphii. You survive another year in this world, feeding, moulting and avoiding predators. Around you, you saw many animals dying or developing mutations; the water became relatively empty of life and you survived alone. The water became cool after a while, then warm and is now cool, fairly murky and quite highly saline. You have recently moulted and are now exhausted. You remain by the rock with Tubomorphii primus encrusting it and you can see the surface when you look up but itâs quite far away. Life has depopulated these waters; a few animals with jellyfish domes, lots of small, barbed tentacles and a pair of oral arms are floating about the different levels of the water. You also see several animals with rigid, exoskeletons with sharp rostrums, a pair of antennas and four compound eyes at the front of the head, followed by clawed chelipeds, oar-like paddles and then three pairs of legs. At the end they have a fantail and hyponome [Cerceps cerceps]. (5)

Latest Mutations: Extend scale covering = 6, Scales become more flexible = 4, Remove scales from Hatchling stage = 6
A small proto-fish, this species has different types of scale to its predecessor; instead of being brittle yet heavy, they are flexible and light; instead of covering just the tail, the scales go up to where the head begins. The scales can even be shed when attacked to distract or lose an enemy and are quickly regrown. Interestingly, the hatchlings are born without scales and are developed when the reach the juvenile stage.

Diplopygus pugilus (VU), Hatchling Male
East Tartarus Coast, Tropical Ocean, Early Summer
You hatch out of your egg into hot, highly saline water that is very clear and blue. There are ripples of sand around you and the surface is very close above; the surf tumbles overhead and repeatedly bumps you around towards the shore. The sky is covered in haze. Over time, you begin feeling unwell and dizzy. The water becomes only warm. This dizziness only increases and you start to feel intense nausea. Your whole body starts to feel in pain, like itâs going to burst from the inside. You cannot get out from under the sun because the waves keep you there. One day you become so dizzy that you just completely collapse under the haze and never wake up. (1 + 1 = You have not thrived. You will be reborn, as your species goes on.)

In the fairly murky, warm, quite highly saline water, you rest. Your rest is undisturbed by any predators and you are able to regain quite a lot of energy. However, you are now starving. In the meantime, the water became cool as. a haze develops over the sea, plus you notice many animals around you acting sluggish and disoriented; many of them end up dead and for a while the water becomes quite empty. Some time later, when the water has become warm again you look around and you are not far above a large rock in a sandy plain, where an animal similar to the Anazitonta but with forward facing eyes is biting bits of a fan-shaped, flexible coral that is waving gently with the tide [Eolamnella simplex] [Rhipiella temperatus].

A predatory ambush hunter that lures prey in with a lure that resembles algae, Haleglossus name lives throughout the tropical ocean, Olympia, Delphi, Aeaea and Tartarus. In the opposite vein to itâs predecessor it produces more eggs than many other species on the planet; it can produce 10,000 eggs each spawning when they gather at mating sites in Early Spring. However, it seems to have lost the part of itâs brain that allows for spatial awareness. It lives alongside another Haleglossus species on Tartarus; it has more fatalities due to being smelt easier by predators but produces more young to counter this.

External Features: A highly jointed, calcified exoskeleton with nine segments covers the the skin, which contains blue melanin pigments. Around the mouth is a pair of strong, horizontal mandibles and a circle of chemoreceptors. A unique lure made of mostly muscle can be retracted into the base of the mouth - it has a green lure covered in tiny hooks at the end and a scent gland. It has two eyes (camera eyes with calcite lenses that change shape and that have no blind spot) either side of the head. Behind these on each side is a (typical apposition) compound eye. Blue and green come cells can be found in all these eyes. Two chelipeds with strong claws are held at the front of the body with a pair of appendages bearing sharp stingers at the end. There are three pairs of paddle-lined legs. The rear of the body has an exoskeleton fantail and below that a hyponome.
Internal Features: Each cell in the body contains a relatively small number of piezolytes. Aquatic spiracles, one on each side behind the head lead from the outside to the inside. Glands near the skin secrete a foul fluid and another gland secretes a harmless fluid. Blood vessels run all throughout the body and in these vessels is an antifreeze (xylomannan fatty acid and polysaccharide). A system of muscles stretches across the body. Near the lower wall can be found the gonads as well as the large protonephridium and near the upper wall is the enclosed swim bladder. Through the mostly lower half runs the monogastric digestive system, from the mouth through the tubes to the stomach and coiled intestines. Ganglia in the head, possessing memory neurons, connect to a dual nerve cord along the dorsal half, which has many nerves branching off it to encompass the whole body. Along the nerve chord is an axochord.
Reproduction: Sexual Reproduction. External Fertilisation. 10,000 eggs per spawning.
Castes/Phases: Males and Females. Female: Has a pouch under the body where the eggs are kept. (Changes: Pouch = +2NP. 205 x size = NP)
Locomotion: Slightly Active (10NP). Usually moves by undulating fan tail while paddling with legs and propels itself with the hyponome. Can walk over surfaces.

Allonops allonops, Hatchling (VU)
Kommos, Subpolar Moderate Oceanic Humid Barrens, Early Summer
The fairly murky freshwater is warm but suddenly becomes cool. You rest in the water as you float gently downstream and recover a lot of energy so that you are no longer exhausted. In the sky above, a haze develops and you see many animals dying or developing mutations; the water becomes relatively empty for a while. The fairly murky freshwater is warm. There is a green animal with a strong, pill bug-like exoskeleton that ends in a fan tail wandering over the riverbed. It has a head with mandibles and two pairs of eyes (camera in front of compound), with the first pair on stalks, as well as a pair of clawed chelipeds followed by four pairs of paddle-lined legs [Gryphorhinus atroboceanus]. It is walking past some bivalves with tentacles sticking out of the shell [Cilistoma caecus]. In the other direction is a blue animal with a chitin shield on itâs back and surrounded by an Anomalocaris-like lobe. Thick mandibles protrude from the front - it has four eyes. At the rear end is a fantail and a hyponome [Dinocaroides hibridus]. (5)

Medusodera pennicoronus, Juvenile (VU)
The Northwestern Coastal Shallows of Kommos, Temperate Shallows, Late Summer
You drift along through fairly murky, warm, quite highly saline water which suddenly becomes cool, so you are a bit more sluggish. As you drift, you gather in food particles with your feathered crown, getting a lot of food. You also drift away from other animals and rest in the current. Once youâve reawakened, you have recovered a lot of energy and nutrition. The water becomes relatively empty for a while. You remain exhausted in the fairly murky, warm, quite highly saline water. You have drifted to an area where there is a flat sandy expanse leading up to an edge, where a cliff descends out of view and the water in front appears open with no surfaces. There are several blurry shapes lined up along this edge; the chemicals coming from them indicate that they are Rhipiella temperatus and Echinosomus hutzii [soft corals]. There are also moving blurs with the scent of Eolamnella simplex [predatory proto-fish]. Your chemoreception also sense particles of marine snow spread around the place, especially at the cliffâs edge. (6)

Medusodera pennicoronus
Latest Mutations: Holdfast, Theca, Pinnules
This species appears a bit like a crinoid. It has a crown of arms covered in feather-like pinnules which are lined with tube feet, which makes it a good filter-feeder. A hard theca protects the head and the body has an endoskeleton of ossicles. It retains the swimming adaptations like the jellyfish-bell below the theca and the lines of cilia on membranes along the body. This is despite having a root-like holdfast, which it can use to attach itself to sediment. It lives throughout the upper 500m of the northern hemisphere temperate Uteenessa ocean.

Thanks for the new round Stealth!
Action: Allow myself to drift back downward to regain some energy and then go after the Ahyponomous if itâs still there. If not try a small piece of the anemone that isnât tentacle.
BELGIUM!??!?!?!
anyway, iâll be Neoichthyoskulus cadavercolus.
Action: sneak up below the anazitonta and kill it
I believe that species is extinct but itâs relative Neoicthyotelus ithaca still lives. Murenoides and itâs new relative are also similar.
@AgentTine, @PositiveTower, @Deathwake, please choose a species. @BlackInk, @TeaKing, @doomlightning , please reply.
Action: Get away from the cerceps cerceps and find a place to rest, if possible put the jellyfish in between us so their smell covers mine
Neoicthyotelus ithaca then.
