All we really need is the descriptions of the root-like plants.

Abe's son 01-27-2003 10:33 PM

Oh yeah

Ruci

Looks like a bluish radish with long tall stocks growing up from its top. There are 3 stocks and they look like corn stocks, but no corn, just leaves.

Uic

Looks like a potato. Its got a larger starch count though. It will give food for a village and allow them to go with out food for 2 days becuse of the amount of starch in it. The bad part: it taste pretty grose.

Iocw

looks like an over turned octipus! Its a ball of nutrients a the bottem, but at the top, tenticle like vines spred out from the soil, with small leaves on them. Its whitish coloration gives the gardens a beutifle look, and their leaves smell good. They're not very filling but they are a good snack. The root part is only edible.

Thats about it. Those are the mager crops.

Question: If you come up with a new species, you have to have it "registered" right? right. Can we make a note at the bottom of the description stating anyone can use this species or a note saying this is to only be used by the creator?

This was inspired by the zerg so here we go.



Name: Treg'nagoule (In the anchints language "Mortal demons of the flesh")
Appearance: Un-diffined, they're a hive based speices and each life form is specailized for 1 type of job, the most true form of the Treg, would be the Hive Worms. Large bloated worm like beings that used themselves and other matirial around them to form a hive.

Classes:

Larva: Small maggot like creatures about the size of a small dog, can morph into whatever the hive mind tells them to

Worker: The workers are like large beetles with scyth like claws coming out of the front of the body, small spider-like legs under it help it to move fast. They produce matirial with wich they can make structures. These are the most important but simplist of the moprhed beings.

Soldier: The soldiers look like small insect/lizard-like creatures, there low to the ground, fast, and good a taring things to pieces(will continue later)

Im sorry, but they were not inspired by the zerg...

They are the zerg!

Abe's son 04-29-2003 11:19 PM

Yeah I dropped that Idea, now I'm gona make the shadow

Abe's son 04-29-2003 11:43 PM

Shadows

Appearance
They all wear long black cloaks, no mater what, they always do. There heads look like black human heads with red glowing eyes and no facial features at all(exsept for the eyes, duh) the cloak has a padded coller that raises up behind thick, and thins out as it comes to the front. Without the cloak the Shadows body is actualy a gaint celstial mass, from wich they can create arms or other appendages.

They stand atleast 12ft tall, and are extreamly sinister, do not trust them at all. Suggested you avoid them at all cost's.

Territory
The Shadows live in vast networks of caves throughout Oddworld, were they sleep and learn. The cave networks are ruled in Oligarchy by 12 lords. The walls of the caves are lined with specail crystals wich the Shadows use to colect beings to obsorb. The creature has to be wounded, or weak for it to work, other wise the creature would still be able to thrive inside the Shadow.


People
All Shadows are intellegent and have a small task force of creatures that the choose to "Infest", meaning if there was a war the Shadows would sit back and wait till there creatures are dead and then wreak hell on the wounded opposing force's. The Shadows live in colonies, and since there is no Familes or Sex's they live with whom ever they want, and make "Shadowlings" by combining celestial energy to create a being like bolth of the parenting Shadows. The Shadows have been staying in their caves until now. They have re-awakend and slowly Shadow's are leaving the caves. Some by choice, others were told to by the lords. And now that they've come out to feed. Almost no one is safe..

Food
They dont exactly eat, they consume the life force of wounded creatures, the more intellegent the better, but what they're mostly draining, is there energy. The victems energy is drained from the body and kills them. Meaning there most favorite meals are Muddokens, Tak'la, and Vykkers.

Weapons
Not realy weapons they use there shape-shifting abilitys and the ability to "Infest" a wounded opponint to combat. You could say they are weapons themselfs.

Occupations
These are the types of Shadows that are found about in Oddworld. Remember every part is black unless said other wise.

Lords- There are only 12, but they are the most powerful of all Shadows. They wear a Roman centurian style helmet, of wich the openings are glowing red. They have the ability to control massive amounts of creatures at a time, and are the most feared of all Shadows.

Aen'Tu-rai- These are the most mysterious and strangest of the Shadows. They have a round head and slited eyes that look like they've been carved in the orb of a head. They use the most celestial energy and weep tears of blood from there slits when they use high power attacks. Strange.

History

The Shadows were created by the Ancheints along with the Tak'la and many other legendary race's. Bolth being brother race's they hate each other. Except for the Gen'krok. The 2 race's have been seen working together on numoris acounts.
