Let´s have another one of these.
These are primordial times and the only creature currently in existence is this photosynthesizing plankton, DNA is floating freely in the cell.
Anyone can join at any time. No signing up needs to be done. Just choose an existing creature from thread and mutate it and post it back here.
RULES:
1.You cannot add any completely new creatures. You can ONLY mutate creatures that exist in this thread.
2.Mutations must be small and gradual. For example a creature can't spontaneously develop legs, that creature has to go through intermediary steps.
3.If you have made a mutation, you can give that creature a new name, but you don't have to.
4.Mutations must make sense, if their usefulness is not apparent from picture, add a few words why it mutated that thing.
5.Add a short description to your creature.(You don't have to, but it would be nice.)

Wouldn't it be easier to continue the other plankton evolution thread?

>>436916
If you want to continue a creature from the other thread, I´d have no problem with it but I like a fresh start and to see were it will lead this time.

>>436905
Let´s get this thread a bit of a starter.
The plankton has developed multiple flagellum on it´s surface.

>>437912
I´m not the OP from last thread, I just really liked the idea, but I will definitely include natural disasters and other happenings, after enough evolutionary steps.
Feel free to evolve the litle plankton a bit.

what's your stance to the incorporation of magic into the evolution? (e.g. having a vacuole to store mana, which simple cells might use to slightly manipulate currents etc.), all science based? or will you allow fantasy elements so long as they're not excessively overpowered?

This generation has stronger flagella and whiskery feelers to sense its near surrounds.

>>438543
You can stretch science a bit, with things like electro-magnetic organs that wouldn´t work in rl but flat out magic I´d prefer not to have in this thread.

The flagellas now evolved into one bigger tail like flagella.

A new branch of the original plankton emerges. There is a thin mucus sac protecting and keeping the DNA in the middle of the organism.
