Micro it is. How RP-Mechanic-Fiat is it going to be?

Hot lesbian orgy I mean, access computer files on biology, hopefully learning more about our species.

I guess that I shall go for the RP heavy option. Just to be different, you know?

I'll be trying to branch out. Most characters I run are pretty like me, you know? Martial types, but generally semi-good at the worst. Or at least Knight Templar types. A non-violent character is different, especially a female, one caring about love life. I'm really tempted to go reread chaos point now . . .



Argie sat on a chunk of wreckage, her blue-green form molding slightly to it. She watched the field of sheet slime soak up light through the clear sky. She wondered idly what the sky was made of. Perhaps she'd go up there some day? But she had more pressing concerns. She wasn't a sheet-slime, content to divide themselves into identical clones. She needed to find a compatible mate. Somewhere, somehow.

"Argie?" You're going to name the founding member of our species and civilization Argie?

Go for Aurora, or something. Nebulas, maybe.

Wait, wasn't it established that gender was aesthetic, and not an actual factor in reproduction?

I guess not?
I think that we can have gender be actually solid, it kinda makes sense from a genetic perspective as well as giving our group some original motivation.

Look, there was a large wall of text with stuff everyone supposedly agreed about. You can't just IGNORE all that. there was a REASON that we wrote up a huge abstract thing on the culture before starting.

Poof. Half of your number spontaneously become male. (Frogs do it IRL, I believe.)
YOU CAN CO-POPULATE NOW. XD

Now then, you don't much about biology,but you do know that you-actually, you don't know that one. Sorry.
Anyways, you type up the BIOLOGY section and submit yourself for scanning.

You are an advanced, large slime species. You have, over time, evolved to reproduced sexually, although slimes have little in the way of sex. You can take more or less any shape that your mass allows, but you cannot do much in the way of manipulation. These keyboards are about as far as you can get. You will have to do something about this.

Slimes like you are hardy, and can survive anywhere there is light. As long as your CENTRAL NEURAL NUCLEUS is intact, you can regain any blobs of slime that you lost. However, you cannot do so with others, due to genetic difficulties.
(EDITING DONE).

Oh, so the Consensual Wall of Text IS cannon, but the protagonist starts out maybe not knowing about everything? Ok.

The wall of text was somewhat contradictory anyway; it included both Armok's "They're emotionally stable and not competitive" part and IronyOwl's "They end up going through genocide cycles" bit.

You do realize you just referred to yourself in the third person?
