thats 4 points.

[Lenglon]

that's just people voicing agreement with the quoted poster (i think)

i'm in favor of spending all 3, not just 2. but spending 2 will work fine w' me

+1.  Our host told us that our EP do not go as far as they did.... we're close to more food so we'll have more EP soon unless something goes oddly wrong.  I think it's safe to spend all of them (1 is almost worthless alone now I believe?  and three together still is not very meaningful).

[GreatWyrmGold]

Alright, let's spend three if it brings us to a consensus.

+1. It took 2 EP to evolve anything we were getting before, and it was pretty basic stuff. I doubt 1 EP will be important, but with our current rate of starvation, we really need energy storage.

[Thecard]

Yeah, we want to be able to store energy, so let's do that.
Also, I have a feeling I'm going to be agreeing with Wyrm a lot, if only because he know big words.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Sesquipedalian loquaciousness is not an adequate explanation for your agreement, but thanks.

[misko27]

I have big words!

We have reached both the Quorum reuqired to decide, and the threshold needed to pass.

What is taking the GM?

forsooth, thou art a fount of wisdom to have aquired such yeah forget this, i'll probably find myself defenstrated if i keep typing like that.

big words =/= good ideas

[Thecard]

Yeah, well it helps to know what the words mean.  And how to spell them.  And capitalize them.  But that's just me.

like i said, i dont want to be thrown out a window, and there's no point to being a grammar nazi.

[Thecard]

Yeah, it takes all kinds.  Anyways, we all agree now?

It's time to go and reorganise the genetic structure of a single individual of a species in a few moments again. You decide to head back to that small alcove where you found the plant form earlier; the creatures here could probably kill you if they tried.

Arriving at the alcove, you lie down and wait as the changes take effect. Gradually, you feel as if your body can now hold more energy, although it takes quite a bit of energy to allow for that in the first place. It finally completes. Now what? Eat probably, but the nearest food source is back with the mice.

You are in a small alcove leading away from the sewer and the path. On the wall facing the sewer is a ladder leading up. The top however is blocked. You can see the sewer and the now familiar fires placed evenly along the walls.



Basic Status:
Health: 2/2
Hunger: 3/7
Thirsty?: Nope
Evolution Points: 1
Current Thought: New part..

Spoiler: Current Body Status (click to show/hide)

Description: Centipede-like creature with an opening at the end.

Brain: Poor. Cannot conceptualize beyond sight and a few scant thoughts that occasionally come up in its head.
Senses: No sense of taste, smell or hearing. Vision is relatively excellent.
Movement: Slow but may make short leaps.
Metabolism: Somewhat inefficient metabolism. Less food is acquired from organisms.
Special: None
Size: 30 cm

Current Organs

Legs: Multiple thin legs capable of limited movement and small leaps. Cannot make continuous fast movement.
Eyes: Two advanced eyes that see in varying spectrum of black-to-white in a 180º radius.
Grinder: An orifice capable of cutting up tissue for digestion.
Omnivorous Digestive Tract (Sewer Mouse): Simple digestive system with an interestingly large-for-an-omnivore caecum and several organs for increased digestion of food matter.
Skin: Weak and defenseless. Covered in fur.Can digest organic matter that is in contact. Somewhat inefficient.

Genetic Material Available:

Sewer Mouse
Ruthenian Cave Lichen
Fermroot

Spoiler: Past Evolutions (click to show/hide)

Fur: Hair covering our whole body except for our underside.
Omnivorous digestive tract: Simple digestive system that allowed us to eat plants, animals and the odd fungi. Evo is much easier to acquire from organisms native to <starting area>
Increased Metabolism I: Food now fills up hunger quicker.
Energy Stores II: More energy can be stored. +2 maximum Hunger.

What is taking the GM?

A combination of laziness and actual work to do.

Good, we are not currently starved.  Very good.

Head back to the mouse area.  Slowly move closer and closer to one of the outer lichen.  When any mouse starts to seem to react to you, hold still.  Stay stopped at that point and wait until one of these happens:  Hunger reaches 2/7 OR a mouse or something else comes to feed/drink/sleep/act distracted within our awareness OR a mouse or something else starts to approach us directly.

We can stalk a mouse that is paying attention to something else, much like we caught our first.  We can leap at a mouse that comes directly to us even easier methinks.  And if neither of those seem to be happening and we get to hungry to wait, we can then rush and snag more lichen, then get out of the area if we must.

Good plan.
