The glob's small spore-ejection site on the right side begins, in some individuals, to sprout a flap-like structure which fills with highly-nutritious stick fluid as well as spores; this is a desirable "target" for herbivores, and encourages them to cover their faces and bodies in spores and then to spread them over a wider area as they swim away.

>>4160238
some globs have an overly active flap generation which, in conjunction with it being at the sight of its spore-production leads to an internal cloning of itself. These globs combine many bulbs in one and their roots no longer can guarantee them to stick to one spot, so they get dragged around by stronger currents, colonizing new places in the world.

losing its mouth turns out to be a real debilitating development for the Lurr, and so soon its species cannot survive the mobile lifestyle due to a lack of nutrients. They become sedentary, residual teeth providing a kind of rooting. They get nutrients by filtering the water through their one remaining orafie, the anus, right into its digestive tract.

Since losing it's mouth. It probably doesn't eat meat. Perhaps it eats plants, or perhaps nothing at all. But it seems get eaten by other carnivore of it's own kind. To help this Lurr to move faster it is given a scrunchy 3 ribbed section near it's upper body. Allowing it to extend out more and inch worm faster.

An assortment of globs root themselves into the ground. The roots split into smaller roots and become slightly more complex so as to get more nutrients and to keep itself securely stuck in the ground. To get more sunlight it develops a small sky blue bead at the center of the crown of the sphere of it's head. It's function is to refine sunlight absorption. It is a gloub.

Some flaps adapt develop 2 smaller tusk like teeth at the bottom of their maw so they may be able to collect more vegetation.The ends of their wings become frayed and start to curve inward so that they have less resistance in the air and are more capable of turning faster during flight. However the frayed wing ends make it harder for it maintain flight for too long.

Being sedentary, the Lurr is incapable of escaping from predators. Thus, a different defensive strategy is required.

as for other details on the planet. the planet has two moons one smaller one and one decently sized one which create tides on the planet. Its in a star system which has one star. and ill probably bring up the other planets in the system later on.

As the parasitic globs begin to infest greater and greater areas of the strong fin flaps, the flap itself compensates with still stronger fins; it also requires more and more nutrition to sustain its parasite and its greater musculature, leading it to take up omnivory.

As the insides of Flaps are much less gooey than those of Globs, the Spikeskull can't just suck them out like it used to; so it develops a long tongue that can be deployed from it's spike and be used to "scoop" some innards up into it's mouth(which is not in fact in the spike, but simply directly above it)
>>4161545
I'd say it's both; the globs evolved roots that penetrate deeper into the skin and secrete neurotransmitters, and the Flap developed a neural cluster in it's ass to interpret these signals.

The obvious superiority of the sensory neuro-globs means that, before long, they have almost completely replaced the traditional globs as the parasite/symbiote of the omnivore flaps as well.

just gonna put up a warning extinction event incoming I will update our trees afterwords

Volcanic activity has been increasing all over the planet. Leading to increasing acidity of the oceans and ash blowing out the sun for a long period of time . This ends up disrupting a large portion of the ecosystem as glob plants are unable to get the sunlight they need. Global temperatures end up dropping more than they usually do for a bit but in the long run will start increasing.

Hello guys. i rolled this event a little while ago. so anyway rules

So everyone can roll up to 5 1d10's for any species of their choice. any species that is not rolled for will be guaranteed a extinction (minus. the three base species which for now will remain the same as of this moment. i probably wont remove them for at least this thread and the next honestly)

Some creatures will have a better chance of surviving then others . which i will determine for myself

if you wish to roll just link the species in your post with the rolls along with the number to each creature.

Multiple rolls can be done for the same creature if you want to try to save one over another.

>>4161743
Can each player roll to save as many creatures and plants as they want, or just one each? Like, I get we get 5 rolls each, but can we do each roll for a different species?

>>4161749
each roll can be for a different species if you'd like. or you can have multiple for one

we dont have enough players to be like only one species per player. also another note your roll does not have to be of a species you've worked on can be any

While the flaps and lures seem to have pulled through in this hard time to come out better than before. How will the creatures now adapt to the warming world. only time will tel

alright so i have the list here now of everyone who survived

All that hair makes breathing through osmosis quite difficult, so the Shaggy Lurs develop a lung from a chamber near the end of their digestive tract. If something other than water and oxygen gets in, it is capable of "sneezing" it out to prevent clogging.
Also, it's fur gets darker due to tiny flakes of volcanic ash getting stuck in it.

I have the idea of turning the Omnivore Flaps into scavengers but not a clue on how to draw it

shaggy lurs are adorable but im going to give a light reminder. please don't do the same creature imidiatly after it was just evolved try to space it out with at least one different creature. this has happened before so just reminder.

The internal wiring of the glob becomes more and more refined: it's surface becomes sectioned into separate "facets", allowing it to determine the amount of light in set directions rather than just overall. The Flap's nervous system meanwhile becomes more adaptive, capable of connecting to the Globs no matter how many and where they grow, and conjuring a simple image based on the globs's inputs.
As it's main sensor is on it's butt, the Flap has twisted it's mouth into a more favorable position, and learned to swim backwards.

Basal globs were increasingly in competition with their mutated, tumorous cousins, and at risk of predation by grazers, root-eaters, and parasitic strangler globs. For that reason, many have taken to a less sedentary life. These globs eventually detach from their root systems to float up to the surface of the water and out to sea. Though they merely drift where tides and winds carry them, they spread their pollen far and wide, either by bursting on their own or by attracting (with red, pollen-filled buds or with their strong scent) the attention of flaps who burst them and cover themselves in the pollen when they come to feed.

Some fused flaps evolve in such a way that, once mated and fused, they metamorphose further. Their central membrane grows wide and stronger, and their mouths grow wider and shift down to the bottom of their body. This allows them to scoop up globs on the go, either floating about the sea or off of the sea floor, without stopping.

Curiously, their young, prior to fusion, still look almost exactly like the ancestral tusk flaps.

The newly-evolved defence proves an effective offence as well. Subsequently, some needle centipede lurs develop increasingly elaborate stingers, which they sue to become effective hunters of other lurs. They can stab prey even under the ground, with their long stingers, and the sensitive hairs which grow on their expanding defensive plates allow them to seek them out by their movements. Their legs grow stronger and longer to give them better mobility and leverage, and their mouths--no longer their primary weapon--lose size and strength.

This is the lance lur!

Some of the basal flaps who survived the extinction event have taken on a series of adaptations to a new lifestyle: nesting and sheltering in the ever-taller cancerous intermingling globs. Their fins have shortened to allow them to squeeze into smaller spaces, though this has limited their ability to swim very far, and their dentition has changed to afford them the ability to not just chew up globs but to burrow inside them, to climb them, and to anchor in place as needed with hooked 'fangs'.

These are nesting flaps.

A few Parasitic Microlurs have been born with a second head, turning into the Symbiotic Microlur: now providing defense with it's snapping beak in exchange for nutrients.
Occasionally the Microlur's second head will embed itself in a passing-by creature, causing it to be stuck to it's original host. The surrounding Microlurs tend to also hook into the unlucky bystander, and thus once attached the two hosts are unlikely to separate.

The breathing difficulties of the Lur adapted by other generations are circumvented as a branch of Wide-Mouth Lurs come to fruition, capturing large pockets of water and prey by spreading their mouth wide and drawing in whatever's in front of it.

The "other lurr" has persisted mostly unchanged across generations, but the advent of symbiotic microlurs leads to the advent of sedentary lurrs less dependent on filter-feeding; instead, their symbiotes' grappled adversaries provide them a decaying carcass to gradually digest with anus-produced enzymes and to suck bit by bit into their ballooning food-sacks.

These are carrion lurrs, and their floating larvae settle and row in great numbers where large animals die.

Seeing Lurs are increasingly dangerous prey for many predator lurs, but with the sea floor comes the danger of attack from below by sabertoothed spike lurs, and they are still no match in a fight for the larger lance lurs or wide-mouth lur, and their inchworming is not nearly fast enough to get a way from omnivorous flaps which see them as extra protein in their salad. Over generations, their muscular ribbed section comes to support increasingly-wide membranes on either side, which allow them to worm their way up into the waters above to escape from these beings which harass them. For the first time, a lur joins the flaps and the floating gobs in the higher realms of the ocean waters!

Some seeing lurs develop increasingly muscular, stretchy bodies with armoured, streamlined skulls. This body plan is especially great for climbing up and around globs, be they cancerous and tree-like or craggy and armoured, and for ignoring any bites by startled parasitic microlurs or nesting flaps inside them as they stretch their necks and wriggle their head around inside them to dislodge tasty morsels. The downside is that such a skull and lifestyle makes front-facing eyes a liability, so they only retain the back ones, for keeping an eye out for predators when their face is buried inside their meal.

Those basic little flaps who have not evolved nesting habits to hide away must find other ways to survive in a sea home to so many predatory lurs and flaps. Countercolour Flaps like one one pictured become darker on top and lighter on bottom, to better blend in with light patterns and to hide from predators. They learn to avoid the very bottom of the seafloor and the shallows, returning to their ancient homelands only to lay eggs; the rest of their time is spend chasing floater globs and surface globs out in the open ocean, and dodging predators.

The backwards flaps, first of the streamlined swimmers in Xeolea's seas but still a herbivore like its flappy predecessors, suddenly finds itself surrounded by other animals. While many backwards flaps just continue to exploit the ever-wider assortment of floating globs and their fruiting bodies, no niche ever goes unexploited in an ecosystem for long, and there are not yet any swift-moving carnivores in the upper ocean aside from the occasional accordian lur.

Such is the genesis of the seeker flap, seen to the left, whose symbiotic globs erect sensory structures on its wing-tips to aid in trajectory adjustments. Its fins grow stronger, supported by a muscular hump resembling a second tail, and its digestive system adapts to flesh.

If you're a fellow flap or navigating lur out and about, the seeker flap is death incarnate.

In an increasingly hostile environment, the sedentary Carrion Lurr is quite literally a sitting duck. With no other option in sight, the Carrion Lurr must make do with it's situation.

The Carrion Lurr has abandoned it's stretchiness in favor of sheer toughness and size. It has also gained bright, vibrant colors to falsely draw attention to itself as a prey. However, it's stout and sturdy build makes it tough for even a clubbed flap to beat. Even then, it won't go down without a fight. It's larger size allows the it to support even more microlur, making any predator regret picking a fight with it.

Bony nesting flaps give rise to Greater Bony Flaps, such as pic related. Their abdomens are covered in claw-like protrusions to help anchor them and allow them to quickly scale the tallest cancerous intermingling globs, inside or out. Their wings have shifted form slightly to facilitate this, but it means their ability to swim is more limited than any of their cousins. They rarely leave the safety of the globs, living on a diet of fruiting bodies, fresh sprouts, and plant-dwelling microlurs.

The Truly Towering Tumor Tree is perhaps the pinnacle of current cancer-globs: a tree-like mound of conjoined globs which can reach from the very seabed to the air above the ocean. It was facilitated by the development of more and more openings to eject new growths at the base, making it less likely to burst or topple as it grew. This was necessitated by all the surface-level and upper ocean globs, which had begun to crowd the sunlight from these greedy, nutrient-hungry behemoths.

Using the leftovers that it cant use for growth it makes a chemical reaction to heat itself, making it an attractive shelter or nesting grounds for other creatures.

While many surface and upper-ocean globs wash ashore and survive for brief periods in tidepools, perhaps the first to truly adapt to land life is the thorny pearl glob. With its protective casing helping it to retain moisture, some of its young specimens are able to survive and even reproduce in those tidepools, waiting to be swept out to sea. In time, some even begin to adapt to shore life so thoroughly that they take to anchoring themselves in place with their thorny roots, avoiding being swept out at all.

These are the chibi pearl globs, and while they cannot reach the sheer size of their oceanic ancestors, they live in a world with far less competition for resources. The beaches of some rocky areas become studded with these beautiful, shining pearls, surrounded by interlaced carpets of thorny tentacles/roots, and wide white leaves.

Some symbiotic microlurs over the eons, pulled away from their sedentary lurr hosts, had the genes necessary to survive for some time on their own, digesting bits of floating detritus on their own.

These translucent "planktolurs" still have one set of jaws suitable for capturing floating motes, but the other set has reduced even further and become something between a hook and paddle, usable to hitch short rides on larger organisms or to propel themselves weakly for short distances.

It's still not enough to prevent them being swept into tidepools, but they are resilient enough and reproduce fast enough to survive in these environments until the tide comes back in. Maybe, someday, they might even thrive there...

Two subspecies of the Chibi Glob emerge: the Blackleaf Whitehead Chibis and the Whiteleaf Blackhead Chibis. The whiteheads reflect light with their head and consume it with their leaves, while the blackheads do the opposite.
Also, due to a lack of predation, both species lost their thorns.

The new striped-berry glob is like its predecessor but its roots are multiple trying to get its delicious fruits away from its main body to avoid being swallowed. Also his fruits have now blue stripes to get the attention of the fauna.

These ones prefer specially shallow waters

The Whitehead Chibi Glob has rooted itself into cracks in the stone to keep it from being swept away into the ocean. Additonally, they have taken on the more jagged appearance of their ancestors while still maintaining their shiny nature.

This species is known as Crystal Globs.

Having grown a much wider body the Wide Flap floats partially above the surface of the water to give it's Glob part maximum sunlight while the Flap's head remains submerged to both help it breath and catch any food. The wider body body does come with a loss of speed and maneuverability though.

perhaps I can be of help, anons
you see, photosynthesis doesn't require chloroplast - aka the stuff that makes plants green
evolutionarily speaking, it is entirely coincidental that our plants are green
the reason they actually are green, is because chloroplast can't process green light, so it reflects it, which makes the plants green

In fall, when chloroplast breaks down and leaves die, you find that leaves become red and yellow instead, because now that the chloroplast is gone, they can photosynthesize green light, but not red and yellow

It's entire plausible for a plant to require so little nutrition as to reflect all wavelengths and just be white
or alternatively, as some plants do in real life
they simply don't photosynthesize and get their nutrients somewhere else

The glob's head has grown larger and has become black in color to maximize the amount of light absorbed. As a side effect, the head tends to get very warm.

Trust me that's how it works, I was the one who made them

After one strand of this plant became lighter and lost it's reflective head, it would sometimes be swept away by winds if it was not deep enough in the tidepool. To over come this, the branches produced many small seeds, scattering them across the land as the dead bush tumbled across the land, going wherever the wind took it. As a result, newly sprouted seeds relied mostly on rainwater for survival.

This species is known as Tumbleglobs.

These Stripeberry Microlurs eventually begin to spread to other berry plants, and to adapt to this new lifestyle. These are the Berrypicker Microlurs, and they have mouths and throats adapted to seizing whole berries the size of their head and swallowing them, and butt-mouths adapted to taking firm hold of a moving platform even in rough storms.

Some tumbleglobs evolved to take advantage of areas of especially-consistent rainwater and rich soil; when they roll there, they unfurl their outer casing to anchor themselves, and then put down roots. These are Inland Settler Tumbleglobs, first colonists of the interior of the continents in many areas!

As the air-sacks became larger and the fruit itself became lighter, the wind would whisk some of these fruit to the land. Subsequently, the plant had adapted so that the seeds that landed there would grow fruits on their tops and root themselves into the ground.

This species is called Whiskberry Globs.

Some nesting flaps take to living in reef globs. These Reef-Nesting Flaps are smaller, more drably-coloured, and more comfortable living gregariously and in close quarters than many other flaps. They scavenge plant and animal material alike, and their inefficient and unspecialized digestive system means their droppings are excellent fertilizer for their home.
