Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web.

I like them, I like the first entry bit. But Fakey's idea about the music is pretty awesome!

I would like to hear the backstories of these villains.

What program did you use to create them?

I used HeroMachine- http://www.heromachine.com/heromachine-3-lab/

They're just half-developed at present, I don't mind what's done with them if they're used.

I think you meant to attach an image, not a file.

Also, finished my player character. I decided to condense Paleo American and Viking into a Paleoviking.

Member Name:
Fakey

Character Name/Secret Identity:
Jörmungandr / Gorm Søvnig

Character Bio:
Gorm was born in Denmark to a Neo Nord family. It was here where his interest in the dead became apparent. His family encouraged his studies in the ancient past, as well as their religion and foreign mythologies. Throughout his adulthood, he could never find a girl to call his own. When he did find one he cherished her and loved her, and after a couple years of dating, he popped the question. She said 'yes'. However, on the day of the wedding, she suffered a fatal heart attack with no causes whatsoever. Here is where Gorm realized who his one true love was. Hel, the goddess of the underworld.
From that day forward, he swore allegiance to her and declared her his family's patron god and his wife. Studying various Nordic tomes and runes, he discovered a way to revive the undead, which began his experiments in the art of necromancy. Through this he has revived countless dead animals and has made a profit from it. His move to Ashed City's Elysium District was one of necessity. In a few days, a gem he's seen countless times in his studies will be on exhibition at the Ashed City Museum of Art. The last ingredient for his Philosopher's Stone.

Powers:

Necromancy, with which he can revive the recently dead. However, various artifacts in crease his powers to include more and more of the dead. With a complete Philosopher's Stone in his possession, he will be able to raise any of the dead as he so chooses, becoming the fabled among necromancers. A paleomancer.

Berserker Rage/Feeding Frenzy: His powers being tied to blood and death, if he consumes the blood of an enemy in battle, he will be thrown into a primal rage where he'll bite down on the hardest surface he can find as his body boils itself. Eventually the heat becomes to much for him and his cravings drives him to try and consume his foe, or at the worst, capture them and farm them for blood. In this state he is immune to psychic attacks, as he isn't even in control of his body in this state. A perfect way to snap him out is to force him to consume more blood than his mind can track, causing him to vomit all of the blood he's consumed.

Being the husband of the Norse goddess of death, he has obtained some abilities which do not require spells and artifacts. This includes superhuman strength and speed, and well as increased stamina and immunity to minor attacks(being hit with a wooden baseball bat). Also among his arsenal are toxins, namely venom and a poisonous gas that can be produced by his stomach on command.

Weaknesses:

His powers being derived from artifacts, it means that his control over certain things is connected to that artifact. So say he takes control of the Confederate Army, the artifact you'd need to steal from him would be Robert E. Lee's sword, if he takes over the Napoleonic Army, he'd have to have Napoleon's hat, etc. Steal it, and the bones, hunks of meat become just that, useless hunks of meat and piles of bones.

In addition, his poisons can be counteracted by running distilled water though the wound and breathing pure oxygen.

Character Music:


Specific Music:

Plays whenever he gets thrown into a berserker rage.

Wait...

Bonnie is a term for the Confederate flag. The Confederates were fighting for freedom against the U.S. government. I'm in a state from the old C.S.A., and I'm hating the current government.

So he's calling me a lad of the Bonnie flag.

That is what you meant, right?

No its just a thing I say, its a term of affection. Essentially it just means good lad. But that stuff about the bonnies is interesting :)

Yup. You learn a lot about history when you go on a Civ V music binge.
