Meanwhile, it still says we're benthic in spite of the fact they jet around with lighter than air bladders.
Team X2
Skyward Blimpie crosspolinates/speciates: switch to using gas as a propellent, using algae within the body producing it as a biproduct. A trick gathered from Lawnkeeper Glidee. They also gain omnivorous tendencies, eating of the fruits, and having their own spore chamber for docking with each other to produce spore offspring. [SS Roll]
\One of the two lines Migrate to Lauv Island in addition to the above, using their bodies' algae to help produce the needed oxygen. [SS Roll]
Fae Barmbesium crosspolinates: Switch to using gas as a propellant. It's produced within the body from algae, a trick gathered from Lawnkeeper Glidee. They also gain omnivorous tendencies, eating of the fruits, and having their own spore chamber for docking with each other to produce fertilized spores.
Fae Barbesium speciation:
\One linage switches to gathering air directly rather than from water, creating a lighter than air creature. It promptly migrates to Lauv Island, using it's fin-tipped tentacles to navigate the skies with it's jet used to drop on and drug prey, which it swiftly eats before re-ascending. It's spends much of it's awake time in the air, dropping in from above in small groups to overwhelm prey. When it rains they gather together to "talk" on solid surfaces and spread their spores. This species are smaller than their ancestor, so as to be light enough to float. [SS Roll]
\The other repeats the second action, expanding upon it and adding more fins with which to cut through the waters.
Behold the POWER!
