actually i mainly dont want to make another account for something that i will only be doing once
Soā¦ sorry for being really late but, I have created the pages I had submited in the old thread and I guess they are finished for now. Here are the links:

āsoo sorry, reallyā
Alright, i see whats happeningā¦
They have a shortage of methane, and that is why aliens keep kidnapping our cows!

That actually seems like it would make sense
But this isnāt a good place for cow abduction discussion

Besides, did your alien race somehow get cows, or did they evolve to have similar DNA?
Please donāt make wiki pages before the TU elders have accepted your submission.
Also, you can make two different ones.
Can I add a wiki page on the Knakui and their long establish livestock relationship to the Kueku?
Continuing the discussion from Thrive Universe Reboot Reboot:
Planet : Niār (neaār)
System : Patuph
Location : Inner Seregon
Owner: Liberal Republic of Yoroue
Astronomy: Similar to Earth, as well as gravity. Orbits the white dwarf star, Mehap (was once a red supergiant). One small moon, Famu. Other bodies in the system are: Hipeteph (medium, hot ringed planet), Vaivartas (Ringed Gas Giant with six moons), Ikem 3 (small, ice planet with two moons) Tapeimoth (giant planet, where methane falls from the skies) and 2 Asteroid Rings (Bahmeth and Gulard).
Continent: Yoroue
Geography: Nearly 70% of Niār is covered in ocean, while the 30% remain with the continent and islands. Yoroue is a super continent with 26 islands, the biggest of them are, Dumon, Jyjamul, Niepalapel, Xamāour and Qyecoar. Average temperature on Niār lies around 20 - 30Ā°C (68Ā°F-86Ā°F). The planet is mostly covered in jungels and forests, altough there is the giant Aracrot desert in the east, sorrounded by dry grasslands.
Biosphere: The megafauna, which started 40mya on Niār, slowly reaches it`s peak, as less and less gigantic creatures roam the land and waters. Due to the humid temperatures, the fauna on the planet mostly consists of creatures with scales, feathers or amphibian skin. Fur is exrtemly rare and only a few creatures have developed some kind of proto-fur, like quills.
The flora has a high variety of trees and flowers, but also many kinds of fungis, which inhabit the planet and have mostly created a symbiotic relationship with the rest of the plant life.
Fruits are very common on Niār and many vary from watery to almost flesh like appearances. Dry fruits are rare and only found in dry grasslands or across the Aracrot desert, as well as some sandbars.
Infrastructure : NiārĀ“s infrastructure is very limited, since most of the advanced cities are located underwater and have been integrated into the planets ecosphere as best as possible. Many structures resemble corals or rock formations, while most cities even have specialised buildings, where plant and animal lifes can live on. Ruins and temples are rarely found in the inland and are only located around beaches, coasts and cliffs. An exception are the 5 huge islands of Yoroue, who even have ancient structures in the inland. The more iconic temples and buildings however, are found underwater in the ocean or near coral reefs.
Roads are not found on Yoroue, since the planet is to overgrown with all the plant life. Instead the cities are connected via underwater tunnels, where both trains and other vehicles can drive.
Population : 8 billion (Uārl), 1.5 billion (Commonwealth species), 60 million (non-Commonwealth species).
Sapient Species: Urāl
Biological and Physiological description
The Uārl are a semi-aquatic lifeforms, who seem to be a mix of Crustaceans and octopus with 2 tentacles on each side of their gills and 4 more in a hidden chamber under their belly. These tentacles have different sizes and lenghts to serve for many kind of subtle - to heavy works. Uārls have 4 clawed legs, which once were the sciccors and the two other tentacles, who hardened over time to become more stable for walking.
This species has two light blue eyes. Uārls have several organic sticks spreading across their back, which are their ears and have tiny receptors inside them, who catche soundwaves. These receptors have the form of crab eyes. The jaw of an Uārl is split in four parts and has both carnivore as herbivore teeth. Under the palatal is the nose located, which look like 2 organic tubes, who also have receptors inside them. However, these receptors only recognize smell rather than sounds. Uārls have several bone plates across the top - and top side on their body, which likely used them to protect against the enviroment (predators,corals etc.)
On both sides of an Uārls body are light blue balls attached, which glow in the dark to not only trick predator and prey, but also to recognize other inviduals through sending light signals (which resembles morse code). The two fleshy and very thick appendages at the end of the body serve for attracting females and the brighter the colours are, the more likely will a female Uārl choose its partner. While Uārls are more found along beaches and shallow reeves, they can also linger in quite deeper parts of the ocean, due to their metabolism. They might be not so fast as humans, but they can reach an age of almost 200 years, which makes them one of the longest living sapient beings.
The height of an Uārl reaches a total of 2m and 3m lenghts. As mentioned in the beginning, Uārls have special lungs, which they are able to maneuver between sea and land. These lungs have the form of a fan with millions of tiny sticks, which filter the oxygen out of the air. The gills on their cheeks can be closed, when they leave the water.
Diet: Uārls are omnivore and can basically eat anything, since their ancestors used to be scavengers in the sea. They mostly eat fish and kelp, but meat and certain fruits, like the Heweb coast fruit, are also on their menu.
Reproduction: If two potential mates attract, the male will start pumping more blood into the appendages on the end of its body, giving them both a red and saturated colour. This process can last up to eight hours. When the female is not impressed by the colourshow, it will simply walk off and the male has to search/wait for a new one.
The Gestation period of an Uārl takes 2 month. After the eggs are layed via an retractable canal, the female watches after them for the next 7 month, until they hatch on their own.
The total amount of layed eggs can differ from 15 to 22, altough only 5% of them might ever hatch. The eggs that didnĀ“t make it will either be eaten by the female or left for the predators.
Evolutionary History :
Summary
It is still highly controversial by the Uārls, from which gap their line once splitted apart, to become the race they are today. There are 3 theorys that they evolved from squids or crabs, or are either a hybrid from the two species, that got mixed up during a mating progress. This progress must have occured often enough, so that even more predecessors of the Uārl came into place and were able to spread healthier hatchlings across the ocean, to finally overcome incest.
Behaviour: Uārls are very imaginative, when it comes to creating gods or structures, since many of them tend to carve symbols or figures out of stone or corals during their free time. Altough the Uārl are quite xenophilic, this only meets up, when they encounter another race that has mostly living in the water for a long time. They mistrust races heavily, whose origin came from the land, since their first encounter with a land creature went into a horrible direction. It takes some time for the Uārl, to react neutral towards another race.
But if their trust has developed well enough, they agree to open cultural exchange and fair trade.

Third installment in the ongoing Olovom Strain story arc, and a direct followup to the previous one.
Interrogation
Date: 63 ASE
Thiro Gakoneid awoke to the sound of his own pounding heartbeat. Taking his first agonizing breaths, he attempted to rise from the cold, metal slab he lay upon, but found that he was too weak with sickness to do so. A harsh fluorescent lamp on the ceiling illuminated the chamber around him, which Gakoneid found to be a lifeless gray. Forcing his head to rise, Gakoneid noticed a looming figure seated at the roomās far wall. The peaked cap set on the desk before it told him everything he needed to know.
āGood evening,ā the Directorate Intelligence Network agent greeted. Gakoneid, clammy beneath the hospital garb he was left in, fought the pain of keeping his neck up, too paralyzed to break eye contact. The agent looked around the chamber, as if admiring the sterile metal sheets it was formed from, giving Gakoneid an opening to recline his head. āSite Olovom-04,ā he remarked, and Gakoneidās waking mind fought to recognize the name. āIāve heard good things about this place. An exemplar stronghold at the fringes of the Directorate.ā
Gakoneidās clammy form coursed with terror. The Tunnels, he realized, and every tale heād ever heard about the dreaded prison surged through his aching head.
āOf course, I wouldnāt be doing its reputation any justice by neglecting to do my work here, would I?ā The agent mused, and retrieved a bar of plastic from within his coat. Gakoneid heard the unmistakable zwee of a data slate being opened.
āThiro Gakoneid,ā the agent began. āYou stand accused of complicity in the crimes of a planetary smuggling ring. You are charged with engagement in unsolicited commerce, trafficking stolen goods, unlicensed distribution of medical supplies, unsolicited occupation of municipal grounds, andā¦ā
The agent paused. āInteresting. You are also labelled a person of interest in regards to the Echoing Stream.ā
ā¦
Iām a dead man.
The agent pocketed the data slate. āAs you may know, any and all information regarding the Echoing Stream, its members, or its operations constitute a matter of highest priority to the Directorate Intelligence Network. Naturally, when my superiors caught wind of its ties to smuggler activity amidst this planetās ongoing pandemic, they elected to pursue further investigation. Black market connections found beforehand by Olovom Law Enforcement eventually led to you. By then, youād already been collected from the streets of Hadakork by emergency services, making our task significantly easier.ā
Gakoneidās memories passed in a blur. He never saw an Echoing Stream member in person. The same went for his ācolleagues.ā But, from the way the brass always seemed so on top of thingsā¦
āI know what youāre thinking,ā the agent said as he rose, right hand planted on the desk. āYou may feel as if youāre already beneath the proverbial guillotine. The Directorate has worked up a vicious reputation among its own people, and I will concede that its cutthroat, uncompromising methods make the criminal world more appealing to many.ā
Gakoneidās life passed before him. Heād started as a clerk at the heart of Velompet, processing grants and transactions that often went beyond Olovom. However, his entire wing had been dissolved after the manager had been caught in a laundering scandal, and the municipal committee decided that starting over from scratch was easier than launching a formal investigation. Jobless and all but disbarred, he had been thrown a lifeline by the employment secretary, who sent him on his way to Hadakork, where some middleman smuggling outfit needed another hand managing inventory and sales. As illegal as it was, it seemed like a second chance.
āHowever, Gakoneid, I have a challenge for you. Can you say that organized crime is any different?ā
His new niche in goods trafficking saw his first real experiences with death. Heād forgotten how many times a regular supplier was never heard from again, how often his boss filled them in on a gang shootout that had killed one of their close dealers. He learned that the Directorateās blindspots were confined spaces that everyone wanted to be in the center of, and that meant eliminating rivals and their connections. āCriminalsā were no nebulous force for Olovom Law Enforcement to tango with, but a writhing nest of independent actors against each other as much as the Directorate. Gakoneid counted himself lucky that heād joined a fairly secure band of rogues, but the thought of some well-armed inner world cartel setting its eyes on Olovom never left his mind.
Through labored breaths, Gakoneid realized that the agent was now looming over him. "Consider everything youāve seen, and imagine it with the caveat that you now hold history with Site 04. This is no regular prison, no detention center where felons can hope to relay information with each other and the outside world. There are no connections stretching beneath the Hihis Mountains that the Directorate does not hold for itself, and the calculating minds of criminals are well aware of this. Your past superiors are bound to declare you a pariah, and word spreads quickly through the underworld - especially thanks to the Echoing Stream.
āContrast this with the Directorate. My superiors see you as an asset, not a liability. Itās in our best interests to keep you in good health, quarantine or no. I donāt think either of us would like to see my superiors be disappointed in this regard.ā
With this, the agent had implied his demand for a testimony. Gakoneid ruminated on what the agent had posed to him, and on his own experiences. Iām about as motivated by survival as anyone else, he decided. Besides, what in the Galaxy is worth dying for?
āIā¦ā Gakoneid began, and the agent stared intently. āThe outfit I was part ofā¦ Plans could change on a momentās notice. Like a - like there was an informant.ā Rather than feel the weight of confession leave him, Gakoneid felt as though heād let someone down.
The agent nodded in approval. āGo on.ā
āWe were based in a railcar assembly plant in Sector 3. Its basement, I mean. We had a deal with the owner.ā Gakoneid stopped to clear his throat, then took a ragged breath. āWe just got orders a few days ago to head for the outskirts and get ready to - to leave, since the Strain would probably spread to Hadakork soon, andā¦ It would be better to leave sooner than later.ā
āI can imagine,ā the agent said. āAnd, as for where the orders came fromā¦ā
Gakoneid nodded weakly. āWe all thought the Strain was only spread by dust storms, and Hadakork never gets them. Not to mention itās far from where the outbreak started. Some of us wondered why the brass thought the Strain would spread there soon.ā
The agent nodded. āI think youāve said everything we need to know for now. For the record, Iād like to thank you for your compliance.ā The agent put on his cap and left the cell, and the featureless metal door closed behind him. Gakoneid was left alone, with only an uncertain future before him.

Ayy, thanks
Donāt worry about the double post thing, i think theres an exception in the rules somewhere about double posts being legal if the new information is good enough

This sounds familiar
So is it a virus, a bacteria, or a fungus?
Well, itās a little bit of both. Itās still a work in progress, though.
It was mainly based on the Cordyceps Fungus/Infection (The Last of Us and real life) and the Flood from Halo.
Could i add my species to the thrive universe
I have everything ready just i dont have art of the species
You dont really need the art for it, just post the bio about what you want to post
Species name: oqlique
Home system: 5 planets 1 star 3 dwarf planets oqlique home planet is quan an they have a colony on quans sister planet wicily
Home planet: 
Description: they look like a pangolin and a dragon mix
Reproduction: when the fetus is developing in the womb after 4 months the female lays an egg which holds the child for another 4 months then they hatch (its like a mix between how mammals give birth and how reptiles give birth).
Bio: the oqlique have been around for longer then the human race since they were just crawling from the ocean to land they are highly curious creatures which have helped them make many things but as the saying goes curiosity killed the cat and it has almost killed the entire species before.
Government: the planet united but as a confederation with all nationstates becoming states, the government is a confederal republic where they elect officials from each state in the planetary parliment and they vote on laws and reforms and the head of government and the people vote on head of state.
Empire name: united states of quan
Almost killed the entire species?
No like finding prehistoric viruses that they have no protection against or find ancient weapons that could destroy the world ending up in the hands of ruthless dictators
