Mutation 1: Gotta do Genetic Recombination for that extra .5 of a vote.
Mutation 2: Physical Enhancement, making them all around tougher to protect them while they’re hibernating while retaining their innate cuteness.

3rd mutation is avaible before even rounds, not before uneven ones. It’s meant to be for even ones.
Scientific name: Fabula haler
nickname: Big Guard
Mutation 1: The manipulatory limbs become covered in thick scales to protect them from the attacks of the creatures that are being killed.
Mutation 2: Develops a bigger size to better fight other creatures.

oh i thought you meant i got it on even rounds
Edit: fixed it
what size category would something the size of a small post be placed in? and what about one the size of a medium or large post?
In category after huge, that being 3.5x Strenght and 0.5x Stealth
In category after that, 4x strenght and 0.25x stealth.

at what size category would stealth go up instead of down?
It’s the smaller you are, the less strength you have but the greater your stealth, and the larger you are, the more strength you have but the poorer your stealth
Same kind of system as the one from Thrive Rules of Nature Competition that this game was inspired by
Round 7 - Year 0, Month 7
While strategies of the creatures turn more diverse, users are now near yet another decision which may put an end to this strange biota…
Species
@Teaking - Multipoda TeaKinges, “The Crawler” - HO
- Tiny Omnivore
Mutations: Sound Antennae (+1 Stealth), Extra Muscle Speed (+1 Speed)
Multipoda has recently adapted a pair of tentacles which have been specialized for feeling vibrations in forum’s air. It’s tentacle muscles now also allow for faster movement, aiding this omnivore in hunting.

@fralegend015 - Fabula Haler, “Big Guard” - HO
- Small Aggresive Herbivore
Mutations: Size Increase (Small Size), Scales (+1 Strenght), (+1 UU due to Action Clarity)
While it is still a herbivore only capable of eating letters and symbols, Fabula has been evolving towards increasingly predator-like lifestyle. It has increased it’s size greatly, now being as large as a small letter. It too has became covered in protective scales, which act as a shield when desperate creatures are thrown by it into the freezing void below. With it’s larger size, users now see it’s actions as clearly in favour of the forum’s people.
Statistics:
- Speed - 4
- Stealth - 2.5*(3) = 7.5
- Strenght - 5*(1.5) = 7.5

Yes, this species preys on everything else alive in the forum.

@doomlightning - Dichorisare Chiozore, “Divider” - OP
- Tiny Herbivore
Mutations: Countershading (+1 Stealth), Segmented Mantle Osteoderm (+1 Strenght)
Dichorisare has evolved some camoflague to hide itself, aswell as an exoskeleton-like structure which makes it more durable. However, those new traits do not completely shield this species from it’s predator, Multipoda TeaKinges.

- Speed - 5

@willow - Dichorisare Hemozore, “Photophagous Divider” - ID+
- Tiny Herbivore
Mutations: Basic Brain, Eyespots (+1 Stealth)
D. Hemozore has followed in steps of it’s relative and developed both a brain and some eyespots for sensory input.
Increased predation from the aggresive Fabula Haler herbivore species makes this species fall in decline, and if it doesn’t adapt to this new threat, It might me doomed.

@TwilightWings21 - Fabula Antelectum, “Naptime” - ID+
- Tiny Herbivore
Mutations: Extra Genetic Recombination (+0.5 MP/Round), Harder Skin (+1 Strenght)
Like D. Hemozore, F. Antelectum has evolved it’s reproductive strategy into generating more variable offsprings. This species has also developed harder skin to protect it while it’s hibernating. However, Multipoda TeaKinges still finds preying on this species an easy task, making it’s populations decline.

Mutation 1: Size increase, for User Clarity, their ability to see my species cuteness better, and hopefully Predator deterrence
Mutation 2: Digging Claws, allowing my species to properly remove the substance of spam posts, before using their powerful bodies to leap to a new post to hibernate. These claws can also be used to defend from predators like “Crawlers”
Mutation 3: Soil Nutrition extraction, allowing it to gain some nutrients from eating soil before disposing of the soil in the void. Allows it to gain extra nutrition from destroying the body of spam posts while also being viewed in an even more positive light.

M1: compressible hydrogen bladders
M2: gliding wings to allow control of movement in air
M3: cute eyes(for user usefulness and increased perception)
my idea for the hydrogen bladders is that they have to compress them to move quickly as the wings are only gliding wings but they fall because of it and they can only move fast for a certain distance before having to move slow to go back up, and the default state for the bladders would be compressed, also to allow getting back on posts after getting yote
the wings and hydrogen bladder combo with eyes would also make evading predation easier by allowing my species to jump off posts when threatened and the hydrogen would make the users get their cursors moved back and\or damaged by an explosion if they decide to cut a member of my species.
i feel like a mutation complexity system would be useful, with the mutation complexity stat controlling the amount of things that can be in one mutation and allowing faster adaptation without really adding too much speed on the evolution of some species
in this in game forum does the forum automatically delete posts that say “(post was deleted by author)”? if not i will take that niche eventually, or maybe form a symbiotic relationship with twilight’s species to remove deleted posts by bringing members of the species to deleted and spam posts,

Mutation 1: Epigenetic manipulation which allows for the organism to slightly control their evolution instead of relying on purely random mutations (in case you are wondering this exists in real life and pretty much every organism does it)
Mutation 2: Chambered stomach to extract the most energy from letters, decreasing the amount of letters it needs to eat.

you will fail, i will make sure of it.
But you don’t have wings?
It was a mutation he was going to add last round but removed because you told him he got an extra vote this round instead of last round. He must have just forgotten he removed it
