Oh god O_O

 

We scurry back to our nest, they shouldnt be able to get in

-Steve

 

You encounter the massive whale plankton.

 

+1 point

 

-Agrius

 

Your species seems to change overnight. They now have a proto-probiscis which can feed on meat and plants, as well as used as a weak stabbing weapon. You now have 1 point remaining.

Agrius floods the surrounding water with poison, and makes occassional ventures onto the dry sand, to increase their resistance to the air.

-Icu

 

The monkfish band knocks on the door frame.

 

"We come seeking the holy grail. Would you happen to know where to find it?"

 

-Agrius

 

You succeed in flooding the surronding waters with poison. Unfortunately, you'll have to risk your people in venturing onto dry land. Maybe one of them will show promise?

We ask about the holy grail, and if they too share our religious views

The goa'ulds attack in a cone formation.

I have my 400 microbes (?) swarm around one of the whale plankton and start jabbing it with their horns. If others attack then we retreat and use our superior speed to outrun them and hit them with hit and run attacks.

-Icu

 

"What is there to know about the holy grail? It's a shiny thing! Oooooh, it looks like you have it there."

 

The monkfishes start trying to scurry into your lair to see the shiny thing.

 

-Goa'ulds

 

Your cone attack failz (wow, another below 5). The shark-planktons strike with deadly accuracy, 10 more killed. 270 remaining.

 

-Steve

 

The whale plankton (just one) starts crying out and dies. It starts floating upwards.

 

+0.3 Combat

 

-Rocco

 

Your microbes bring the shiny thing back to the colony. Many of them wonder what it is. Your microbes succeed in bringing back enough food to sustain the colony.

 

+0.2 Strength

 

Your search parties come back at the same time and tell you tales of the far lands. They start talking at the same time, and you wonder which one you should listen to first.

I'm confused, I thought it stopped shining after its light source (the light from the sun reflecting on the ocean) was taken away :S

 

I ask them for a partnership in religion, telling them if we can share each others power we can reach the light more quickly

The goa'uld start randomly jabbing away with their jolters.

 

I'll lol if this one works better,

Agrius decides to sacifice half of it's numbers to find the ones with the most resistance to the air.

They continue flooding the area with poison and killing anything nearby.

Great now I feel bad for it... I have 100 of my people carry the whale plankton down below the wavy green thing before having my people feast upon it.

The monkfish realise that the object stopped shining as well.

 

"Wait, that's not the holy grail...Come on people, let's keep moving."

 

The monkfish start to leave, ignoring the rest of your sentence.

 

 

 

-Goa'uld

 

You fail to damage the shark-plankton, but you prevent them from attacking one action turn.

I send a few search parties up closer to the light, while I send a few other parties to hunt for food

-Agrius

 

150 of your bravest Agriusians (they're not really microbes anymore) venture out into the air. They travel about ten feet in, before 145 of them topple over, writhe, and die. The remaining five return to the colony with some basic lungs.

-Grim

 

Your people have a great feast and grow obese. You've learned that your people will soon be as fat as Americans if they continue eating this way.

 

+0.6 Gluttony

+0.3 Whaling

At least it did somethig.

 

The goa'uld attempt to flank-attack the shark-plankton.

I have my people exercise before having them go into mitosis. I then have them go closer to the surface.

Microb Bob says to explore their home, wondering if there are any other areas they can get to, and if any other fish have arrived yet.

The Icuwangans travel closer to the light, and have an enlightenment. The search parties find no food.

 

+0.7 Piety

-Goa'uld

 

Your attack strikes well, killing five sharks. The remaining fifteen turn even more aggressive.

 

+0.5 Electric

+0.2 Combat

The 5 with the basic lungs attempt to transfer the gene into a new generation through use of meiosis.

Wait Meiosis I thought was sexual stuff? Doesn't that make X4?

 

We decide to leave our home, but we carry the non shiny thing with us as it is still a holy relic as it founded our religion

-Steve

 

Steve's group returns to the surface. They spot a pack of Narwhal-Plankton. They fail mitosis.

 

-Microb Bob

 

Your new home is much brighter than your old home...and much colder. There appear to be bountiful krill-plankton nearby.

 

+0.3 Cold Resistance

-Ross

 

The gene spreads to about 50 microbes in total. The remaining 100 without the genes are a threat to the gene, as it may die off in an area without oxygen from the air.

The goa'uld attempt the flank attack again, making sure only to point the jolting bit at the plankton.

Steves group sends 20 microbes as emissaries and attempts meiosis to breed stronger flagellum.

-Rocco

 

The search parties have returned to tell you news. You sent a lot of them, so they're all talking at the same time. You need to choose one to listen to.

 

-Icu

 

Your people find two locations for a new home. One is in a crevice about five feet below their previous point, and another is on the edge of a growth of moss near the surface of the water.

 

-Goa'uld

 

The goa'uld circle back with surprising speed and kill the rest of the Shark-plankton before they can react. You have a bad feeling there will be more of them following the trail.

The Narwhals ignore the Emissaries...It looks like they're hunting. Also, a few of your population develop stronger flagellum, but they'll probaly die out since they are few in number.
