Fun Fact:
That story I wrote is actually based in a real experience of mine. A few months ago in my Zoology class, almost that exact thing happened, almost. The lecture was about Sponges (not Yellow Bathysplates) and most of the class was bored, but also quiet, and no one really talked to much. The teacher wasn't a drunk who had given up on the students either, in fact he was a pretty cool teacher who actually made sponges much more interesting then they deserve. The girl texting was real, and so was the kid falling asleep in the back of the class. For that kid was me. It was hard, I tried to stay awake and take notes, but I kept falling asleep, so finally I stopped taking notes and tried to just listen, focus entirely on listening to him, but it still failed. I still fell asleep. Anyways, sorry for the needless spam.

Flannelworm: bestshot9
Evolved from: Leafworm
Survival Status: ?
Genes (10): Digging x3, Water Retention x3, Crawling x 1, Eating Dead Things x1, Eating Plants x1, Reproduction x1
Genes added: Digging x1, Water Retention x1, Eating Plants x1, Reproduction x1
Description: The Flannelworm, a new evolution of the old leafworm, has gone from being a decomposer, to somewhat of a parasite. With flannels popping up all over, the Flannelworm evolved to be able to dig into the plant, and feed on its leaves and fruit. They have also seemed to have evolved a faster, much more efficient way of reproducing, giving birth to much larger numbers, and healthier offspring, then the leafworms. They still retain the ability to eat decaying plant matter and other dead stuff should they encounter a time when healthy flannels are not around. Also, their bodies have become better adapted at retaining water, so they do not need to spend their entire lives in moist soil any longer.

Otterus Scraper: Charles Li
Evolved from: Lung Scraper
Survival Status: Competing
New Genes: Swiming x1 Planteating x1 Brain x1
Genes (18): Skeleton x1, Jaws x1, Plant Eating x4, Swimming x3, Eyes x1, Gills x1, Water Retention x2, Crawling x2, Lungs x2 Brain x1
Description: The ancient Lung Scraper, older and more abundent than the Ol Scraper. Finally evolved into a new creature. Interestingly, although they too walked down the plant path they instead head for the sea. Indeed, some scientists label it as an really primitave form of an otter, signaled by it's slightly larger brain that allows it to think more often and sometimes 'prepare' meals by stockpiling food until they and their family are truely hungry.
OOC: I was choosing between Ol Scraper and Lung Scraper. But since the Ol didn't have retract-able spikes yet. I choose this one. It will eventually split to an Otterus line and a Ampalian line. Wish me luck! Indeed! It is more complex than Ols Now!
Also, it is not a complex brain.. Just one that can sort through when to eat instead of keep eating/run/sleep comands and more like store/home/sleep/run/eat comands (just 2 more!) more complex should have more comands (like run to grove, dive underwater, stay still and hide ect.) Just an Idea to keep you from kill it because it can't feed its brain!

Spoiler The Old :
Evolves to:
Gigatupler : C&civ3
Evolved from: Greater Landupler
Gene added (3): Large Size +2, Skeleton +1
Gene removed: Digging -1, Crawling -2
Description: When people found the first Plutonodupler though they was largest the land animal that will ever live on Delta Panzerus, by now they found a Gigatupler. Gigatupler is looks super size version of the Landtupler. As became larger their it's bones strengthen to allow it to grow to super size, to allow adult Gigatupler to become more to less too big for most predators to attack them and a group of them normally easily catch away any thing which so much as looked at their young. However the size grown cause it to lost it's crawling and digging ability.

Spoiler :
Endodid
Genes Added (Max 3): Eyes x1, Brain Power x1, Walking x1
Genes Removed (Max 3)
oison Resistance x1, Digging x1Description: Hunting above ground was much more involved than the simple grubbing for food the old Diggadid's where used too. The Boaradid started coming above ground but the Endodids took it one step further. By leaving behind their poison resistance and some of there digging ability they where able to refocus some energy to other things. Mainly there eyes and brain power. Both of these would help greatly for moving back into "light" permanently, lastly they became better "walkers" moving further away from the crawling of their ancestors.
