Spoiler: Time Slimes (click to show/hide)

A race that takes the form of a translucent colourful (They change colour to whatever they ate most recently, modified by the colours of whatever they are storing inside themselves) slime with a solid silver core. Around that core will be storage pouches (Vacuoles), one at birth and another every (n^2 + n-1^2 + ... + 1 where n = vacuole count) years they are alive. They can store objects within the pouch, and as long as an object is inside the pouch they are able to form their slime into that shape.
Example, if they eat a key, then they could make a bunch of keys jutting out of their body and become key coloured.

Their body outside the vacuoles is extremely acidic and moderately poisonous. They reproduce by budding, they create a second core and drop it and a vacuole along with some slime onto the ground, and it becomes a new slimeling.

Their brain is located inside the silver core, and so if that gets destroyed they die. This is the only way to kill them. But when something normally would destroy the core, they instead teleport one day into the future and are completely healed from all injuries. Once this has been used, the core turns black and they must wait a week before they can manipulate time again.

They also gain strength (10% of the dead's best attibute. Examples being speed, strength, magical ability, intelligence, attractiveness...) every time someone dies near them, and three times as much (30%) when they kill someone.

Updates: They will be able to inflate their pouches to float in the air and through space like a balloon, and more importantly emit a constant smell of overripe apples which prevents magic's use temporarily when smelt.

But also giving them the ability to combine species of plants and animals by storing samples of them in their pouches and combining them. This would cause them to lose as many pouches as species they fused. (Or possibly kill them, I am unsure...)

New Fancy Goop: 28E base
Earth-like planet: 9-10E
Non-decorative realistic star: 19-20E

And yes, they did cost as much as three planets, and I'm hoping to upgrade them...

[Rolepgeek]

Well, good luck with that, because if a race appears that starts trying to murder everything, don't be surprised if someone decides to Paradox it and/or you. >.>

[gman8181]

Must... create... Gruen... Hybrids... with... super... expensive... race...

[Rolepgeek]

I'm interested in two things, actually.

How the Luminee will reproduce with the Nephilim and/or the Time Slimes

How the Gruen would try and Hybridize the Nephilim.

Nephilim are basically made of magic, and quite a bit like Gruen except instead of 'physical material' think 'magic' and they are less obsessed with eating and more with inventing things/having sex. Which are the same things, for them.

No problem is unsolvable with enough essence thrown at it

Getting rid of the Null?

Outside the Bubble as well as in, that is.

Yes. Sadly, we do not have enough essense to throw.

[IcyTea31]

Cim has.

Cim has.

I would be a little disappointed if that was true 

[Cryxis, Prince of Doom]

how expensive would it be to make a race of large owls to protect my sewa, I was thinking having them be sentient but not sapient with the goal of protecting the Sewa as their purpose and have them be about one protector per each family of 5 Sewa so each family has a protector

do the $$$ thing makes it easier for KJP to see it.

[DreamerGhost]

Using $$$ in cost related questions greatly inreases chance of them being answered. ex.

Creating a planet sized city that would orbit the (already existing) sun

Intrinsic WQ: Humans actually don't have the highest which may surprise some of you who thought they were ever intended to be optimal. Long lives and short lives tend not to affect it too much. Extremes like an unaging race, a five-year lifespan, and having a hundred surviving young, however, will have a noticeable effect. Lifespans as much as ~170 years are still close to the highest multiplier on account of races in general tending to live longer in a setting like this.
Details costing more: Modulars also cost a lot because of how long they take to check for more than three features. Well-detailed things that don't get disputed tend toward costing less.
Propagation cheaper than creation: Technically true, but that bug has mostly been patched. You're better off not generating unnecessary work.
Page 100: I see something about KI'Tork asking something about the sun.
Propagating over multiple ticks: It depends on how it's done. Propagating once each tick wil end up much more expensive partly because of rounding. Propagating starting at a tick and ending at another (be sure to post reminders) can end up a bit cheaper.
11B vs. Hovori: The Hovori were 10E base. (6E+(4E Cosmic) I think)
New bestiary: Local copy of tick updates modified to include a link to it
Expensiveness of time-related creatures: It's partly because of the combination of the time thing and the absorption
Malakath: Safe stasis

Turonniheld: 3-4E base
City for them: 3-5E depending on features
Turonniheld/1K: +1-2E
Turonniheld/10K: +2-3E
Turonniheld/100K: +6-7E
Owl defenders: 2-3E base
Creating a planet-sized city to orbit the sun: 12-13E, can easily orbit close or far from the sun mundanely or be forced into an unconventional orbit (e.g. leads/trails Keshan/Slytha by half a degree at all times, orbits in a wavy pattern normally requiring powered flight) for 2-3E

Giving a race (Specifically Time Slimes) the ability to combine species of plants and animals by storing samples of them in their pouches and combining them. This would kill them though, and their time powers wouldn't save them.

Price check on creating a kind of magic that lets people pinpoint the location of others nearby by feeling their pain.
