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.

Here is an overview of the main powers of the galaxy:

I think it's "Taurans", not "Taurens".

You are not merely outside the law, you are outside humanity. Neither age nor sex shall save you and yours. You shall die, but first you shall taste the agony of your wife, your sister, your sons and daughters, even those in the cradle!

He shall be dragged living by his broken leg or bleeding arm and flung like a suffering, groaning bundle of refuse into the gutter. Death! Death! Death!"

No I think that is too similar to all the other aliens we have which are hive minds. The problem is with literature is the fact that you have to read the book to truly understand the aliens. Meanwhile the games and films we use all you have to do is open up youtube and type in the alien and boom! Im sorry to be so sorta fickle :/

I always like Xenomorphs as an environmental risk. It's like exploring abandoned buildings- half the time you're gonna find wasp nests and swarms of rats and other gross things. Same with Xenomorphs.

Except these are massive, clever, and can eat through a biotic field.

Mind you, you're now imagining a Collector Ship combating a Xenomorph-infected planet.

And it

is

awesome.

EDIT: Posted Image Also, guys, I'm actually sad this show was cancelled now because we didn't get to see this.

That's not a Xenomorph; it's what the aliens from "V" look like without their human suits. :P

EDIT: Oh wait, you knew that already... >.<

Fakey- No you cannot be a xenomorph, that would be just beyond ridiculous. Anyway guys you are forgetting that xenomorphs are going to be pretty fucking terrifying since they infect some of the nastier species of the galaxy such as Orks, Rachni etc. Imagine an Asari Xenomorph which retains its biotics...
In this Universe if a derelict ship is found it is to be ignored, the risk of xenomorph, flood, tyranid, zerg etc infestation is too great and spreading is simply too risky. Most ships tend to be left alone unless there is contact from the crew...


I was interested in being the environmental hazards, dude.

Did I ever tell you you're my favorite member?

This also give me an idea. what about the Phazon from the Metroid Prime series? The stuff is a horrible blue liquid that mutates most life forms, and if levels become high enough, they often corrupt the being into producing more Phazon, enhancing their natural abilities and changing their form to better spread Phazon.

Oh, and the planet that Phazon originated on, Phaaze, is a living planet. It produces massive seeds called Leviathan and ejects them every hundred years in order to turn other planets into copies of itself.

As I said, its the Terminus Systems, nobody gives flying shit about some sodhole slaving outpost or piss poor slum colony. Welcome to the real universe guys ;) although throughout the rp I hope to present you guys with moral choices with effects (not like ME3...).
Perhaps nobody there, but Commander Zilwicki comes from a nation founded by slaves that took in refugees or an orbital bombardment, and has a thing about murdering thousands of innocent people.

I've always seen them as a biological cobalt bomb. It kills everyone and prevents anyone from ever living there again.

If Xenomorphs are present on a planet with Orcs, that place is going to be a hellhole. Orcs grow from spores, so they won't be wiped out by xenomorphs forever, so more and more eggs will build up and eventually the whole planet is covered in eggs.

The question is would a xenomorph impregnation work on a Atari, or would the Atari be able to use he DNA to have an Atari baby?
