It takes a long time to build a stone statue. I'll set up a redesign, though. How quickly do they have to reproduce to double their population by the heat-death of the universe?

Also, would alchemy (still acid making) work?

I'm making exceptions anyway, so alchemy might work. Don't expect the Hollywood Instant dissolve Acid though.

       -Peaceful fishermen: Living in an isolated, excessively friendly environment (where overpopulation is never a problem), Mitoshondr are oblivious to the very concept of war. They make very good fishermen and adequate crafters, though.



Mitoshondr are oblivious to the very concept of war



oblivious to the very concept of war


Oh this is going to be fun.

And a living city, too! :3 Sounds like THAT'S gonna make one fine host.

Also, GM, they're not strictly insectoid. The mutations that they cause are indicative of insectoid-ness, but the internal organs are mostly similar to the host's. So if they infect something aquatic, they can breathe underwater, etc. though its carapace would need to evolve thinner, meaning it's less defensible since it needs to not sink.

Sheet Edited. Still takes forever, but a lot less long, and the creatures spawn as adults.

Could the zerg come after my rocks, or is the fact that they're made of stone defeating?

Is your brain biological? if so, then yes, though they don't have much of a reason to until they research centralized mutation.

Which will then make them into essentially the Zerg.

So yeah, Zerg with telepathy.

That's gonna suck.

Though right now they're more like the Xenomorphs. Right down to the face full of alien wing-wong. Just that that's all the vector form IS. XD

Given the tendency of the Leviathan to assimilate other species into their organism, I wonder what will come out of such a deal.
EDIT: Probably what would come out of a facehugger trying to facehug the zerg Overmind.

Something very... interesting. And maybe beneficial to both parties. Though it's possible that it'd just end up incorporated into the Brood because honestly, the Yxtanph are kinda dicks.

You mentioned brains above, so I should point out that Leviathans have no centralized brain (that would be kinda dumb with a body this big). Does that influence things?
Metabolism is also very slow. It would probably take you centuries, or even millenias, to transform a Leviathan.

Re-reading your sheet for !!SCIENCE!! and fact checking.

The fact that Leviathan can absorb DNA and dump it in an unspecified storage, and have complete control over said stored DNA's expression, can also (possibly) nullify integration. apparently you create new cells, instead of pouring DNA into preexisting ones.


EDIT: lol, your Vector would die of old age before the Leviathan start to feel hungry, or even consider the Vector as a potential food source. And the thing would need to be underwater all this time, because that's where the mouths are. x)

PS: Mitoshondr are perfectly host-able, no arguing on that point.

Well, Vectors underwater can do something that they can't on land (I.E. swim), so they don't need to rely on something eating them, they can just swim into the mouth and start burrowing. And they don't technically NEED a brain, just some way they can hijack the nervous system.

And if they can get into the creature, then they subsist off of its metabolism as a parasite until the integration is complete, at which point the Vector basically dies, since its job is done.
