~10.5 million years into the Atroxian~
Gnathosian Stage
Event - 2 (No event)
Global Climate: The climate of the single landmass, Uteeno, is generally hot (globally 25c) and dry; there are few land plants to soak up the greenhouse gases (CO2 is at 0.1%), and most of the supercontinent is too far from the Uteenessa superocean to receive rain. As a result, there are high sea levels and no glaciers.

Kapnosta limus (NT)
DEEP SOUTHERN UTEENESSA OCEAN
As the eel-shaped lights creep closer towards your position, you try to find some place to hide from them. But as you swim above the floor on your search, the creature turns towards you. You have been noticed! Instead of hiding you are forced to flee. It swims after you, gradually closing the gap. Luckily, your extra stamina means it gives up before it can catch you. It is now totally dark again and you are exhausted and hungry. You still seem to be in an area with a current pushing against a seamount base. (2 + 1)

Kapnosta limus
(Skeleton = 5)
(Smell = 1)
(Scales = 6)
Description: These common, tubular animals are the first to evolve a layer of scales over their bodies, which provide more protection than bare skin. The downside though is that to prevent the sparse light glinting off their scales and giving away their position to predators, a fine slime is secreted over the scales to dull them. The problem is that this slime produces a strong smell, which spreads for tens of metres. Fortunately, at this time no predators have any olfactory organs. Kapnosta limus are the most common animal of the deep ocean, but are most successful around hydrothermal vents; the scales means that they can withstand more heat than their competitors. The vents produce a lot of valuable chemicals which microbes thrive off, and Kapnosta limus in turn thrive off these. Another adaptation that gives them an advantage is the evolution of a cartilage skeleton, which supports the heavier body and allows them to swim, albeit slowly and just above the ocean floor. The skeleton provides a place for muscle attachment, and it moves it’s body from side to side to swim. It’s name means slimy smoker, due to its fondness of hydrothermal vents.

One of the many herbivores that plunder the mossy outcrops in the shallow seas, this mossy-green species only slightly edges out beyond its competition as it is slightly faster and more athletic. However, this niche is becoming quite crowded.

Another difference is the fact that the stomach now contains an acid capable of breaking down meat.

Thanostoma aquaprinceps (LC)
DEEP SOUTHERN UTEENESSA OCEAN
You decide to head upward to feed. However, being less than a centimetre long at this stage in your life, means purposeful movement is difficult. You do move upwards through the viscous water, but not significantly. On the plus side, a gentle current carries you helplessly towards the continental slope, where the current starts to get deflected upwards. You fed quite well on the other plankton caught in this current, and grew to a size that can actually swim meaningfully. For now, you sink through the water to the base of the continental slope.

You hatch out of your capsule right on the edge, where the sea meets the ocean. This is actually a good thing, as you drift into the oceanic currents, as plankton, and away from dangerous predators that can only swim a short distance without a nearby floor. Another positive is that this current takes you to green and pleasant water, with plenty of potential food. (6)

Glistroskulus louixi is the only animal which can withstand the freezing water of the poles; it has special antifreeze proteins in its circulatory system which inhibit the freezing of its body fluids. Although there are no shallow seas in polar regions at this time, the simplicity of this species allowed it to return to the deep. It therefore occupies the deep ocean in polar regions, with no competition. It has also replaced Squickia visionii in shallow seas in warmer climes, but here it is not as successful. Furthermore, this species has evolved a cartilaginous notochord, which adds stronger muscle attachment and therefore movement. Lastly, a transparent layer of skin has evolved over the forward-facing pinhole eyes, protecting them and improving the clarity of vision.

Event - 18 (Major Disaster)
[i]ANOTHER ONE OF THE ORIGINAL LINEAGES BITES THE DUST!
A rumble shook the Manaurai Sea as the hotspot volcano erupted again, spewing dangerous gases into the air and eschewing forth a rain of magma bombs pelting the coast of the new volcanic island. Then the magma flow zoomed down the slope to the sea. It even sped across the ocean surface for a short while, boiling the water directly underneath. Many animals met this spectacular doom.
Contrary to this loss of life, new species have been evolving in response to the advancement of predators. A couple of species evolved off of Kapnosta limus, making more of their surroundings to defend themselves. Another species of Achmachelus has evolved, making Achmachelus subitamortis extinct, which is able to traverse the water column with ease, swimming gracefully, almost flying, from the deep sea to the ocean’s surface.[/i]
Global Climate: The climate of the single landmass, Uteeno, is generally hot (globally 25c) and dry; there are few land plants to soak up the greenhouse gases (CO2 is at 0.1%), and most of the supercontinent is too far from the Uteenessa superocean to receive rain. As a result, there are high sea levels and no glaciers.

Starving, you are drawn back around the to other side of the seamount, where you know there to be food. However, as you get there, it seems the predator that had chased you before is still patrolling the area. You duck for cover, but it spots you. It chases you again but, unlike last time, you have little energy and get tired first. Before its jaws catch you, your consciousness fails…(Oops, you died! Luckily, your species lives on, so just wait to be reborn.) (1)

Glistroskulus louixi is the only animal which can withstand the freezing water of the poles; it has special antifreeze proteins in its circulatory system which inhibit the freezing of its body fluids. Although there are no shallow seas in polar regions at this time, the simplicity of this species allowed it to return to the deep. It therefore occupies the deep ocean in polar regions, with no competition. It has also replaced Squickia visionii in shallow seas in warmer climes, but here it is not as successful. Furthermore, this species has evolved a cartilaginous notochord, which adds stronger muscle attachment and therefore movement. Lastly, a transparent layer of skin has evolved over the forward-facing pinhole eyes, protecting them and improving the clarity of vision.

Woohoo, new round! Though I think you gave my species the wrong information. I’m supposed to be Aerochelus gulpin, not Thanostoma aquaprinceps. 
Action: Keep eating around the large filter feeders, maybe they’ll bring good luck. Hopefully.
