SHORES:

The shores are a paradise for life, having many miles of water and area to grow, with easy access to the sun. In addition, the temperature is a lukewarm tempature, hardly damaging to any creature.

There are three creatures who have their hold in the shores.

The Sprun

This creature is a colony of smaller, identical cells. each cell is oblate with two tentacles on each end. This allows them to manipulate water and the nutrients floating through it. It pumps the water along it's body, distributing the nourishment equally along the cells. The cells grow and split individually, and decay into their basic parts as they die. They eat everything they can break down.

The Ayalt

The Ayalt is simple- it clings to the sand, other living objects, or the surface tension of the water. It uses photosynthesis to process nutrients from the water into proteins, and a substance similar to fat or sugar witch is energy rich. It produces oxygen from breaking down carbon dioxide.

The Clend

The clend is a mobile, small creature that lives in and plucks from Sprun. It reproduces "traumatically", hunting down another clend, tearing it open and placing small, virus like objects which uses the partially live body to produce many tiny clend. A clend has no gender, and the ripper passes on more genetic code then the rippee, because they tend to live longer, which drives up competition- rip or be ripped. They have no competitors but themselves as of yet, so they have little defense but an offense.

!!The shores have plenty of room for diversity, so it is rare for a species to be replaced when a new one evolves, unless one fills the same niche so well it destroys the competition completely.!!

The Sprun cells start to become acid, absorbing material into them and dissolving it for energy.

The Clend splits into the Clendroth. Its colors begin to dull as to not be too attractive to others looking to breed. It also develops a carapace that can protect it, giving it a chance to do the ripping.

Variations of Ayalt emerge which feature longer tendrils and barbs lining the tendrils, this allows them to more easily cling to flotsam and other life forms. They will now be call Ayayt

Another species of Clend called the Clendrool emerge. The Clendrool's saliva is filled with the virus that produce more Clend, to help spread the virus within its saliva the Clendrool developed sharp tusks to help tear open the new host.

Some of Sprun's cells leave the colony to float freely out into the sea, allowing them to access nutrients before the waves wash them over to the colony. This has very little effect on the colony however, due to them being single-cellular not needing very many nutrients. Their flagella develop little paddles on the ends to help them maneuver the water. Occasionally when many of them get stranded in a tide pool, they may return to old behaviors and group up to form a new Sprun.

Tree!

I had to remake the CLENDROOL, the image you posted was grainy.

Some colonies of sprun have started developing large radiating tentacles made mainly of cells with lots of motor proteins. These soft tentacles move together in waving motions, pushing water onto other tentacles and the colony.

All along the beaches the purple chains and mounds can be seen with tentacles waving and creating currents in the water. The clend species are confused but not phased by this. This just gives them more food to eat.

The new colonies are Sprumoto.

My tripcode or something GMS!as0d4Rm7wU 07/30/15 (Thu) 20:57:20 66997f No.201

For identification I guess if I want to make an event here.

I'm never used a tripcode before

Small illustration of what the ecosystem looks like in most places

Notice that all sprun pictured seem to be Sprumoto, but only portions of them are, because they remain attached to their kin even after a mutation.

The Ayalt gains a thick cell wall. It also develops photosynthetic nodules on their tentacles. Once these nodules grow to significant size they break off and form their own cell.

Sweet! I like it.

ENDROOL

Some Clendrool have become much less plump and large, which are both features searched for when mating. This allowed many to over time dig farther, smaller tunnels in Sprumoto and Sprun, which they've adapted to. They now hide in these tunnels until they see a Clend or Clendrool swim past, which they tunnel into like a Sprun, drool all over their insides and swim away. This increases the host survivability partially, but still they rarely survive what with a gaping hole inside them and with the hundreds of Endrools pouring out.

They have larger clutches than their predecessors, so they are, without a doubt, pests for the Sprun and Sprumoto, and not just a small nuisance like the Clend, Clendrool, or Clendroth.

I'm evolving twice in a row here, but I hope it's ok.

PRUMOTO

Prumoto takes advantage of it's tentacles to the next level- it walks along the sea floor, tumbling and spinning with it's simple tentacles.

Portions of the sprun can communicate, not with the advanced electric systems of the Clend species but the cells are able to put proteins and waste out in between two cells.

This way the tentacles know when to start or stop, start walking and wafting the plant and detritus rich sand and water up, or sit down and conserve energy, temporarily going back to their old ways.

The Clend species both benefit and not by this. Some Clend are now able to go to new areas with less competition or more to rip open, but sometimes the fall out and aren't able to make it back in, lacking a place to hide from the ripping.
