You need phagocytosis to eat smaller microbes, you just hve the innate ability to digest them. How about a mouth? If I get a mout I can eat smaller microbes right?

I want for my usual roll flagella and for my reproduction roll low pressure tolerance ( although I don't remember the difference between normal and reproduction rolls)

@unknown in this case a "mouth" is simply phagocytosis. Whenever someone asks for a mouth as a microbe, I am giving them phagocytosis. So feel free to ask for one, and as I believe I added at the end of an earlier round, you should consider yourself able to digest. Would you like this to replace horizontal gene transfer for you?

Round 5:
Event: Nutrients Ran Dry The thick primordial soup in which life formed has been effectively used up by the lifeforms of this planet. Species must now turn to autotrophy or heterotrophy in order to find sustenance. Motility is a must, and many species suffer from this sudden change in availability.
SkyGuy98: (Active Glycovore) Mutation: Phagocytosis (2+1) Description: E. cieloviri has not noticeably changed. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {2} Flagella {4} Failed Vertical Gene Transfer {3} Better Mitochondria {5} Conservation Status: CR (least fit)
Robotranicrex: (Active Phagocytizer) Mutation: Binding Proteins (6) Description: E. roborexi has developed a class of proteins that enable it to bind to other members of its species. While these proteins allow for a great range of community structure, one only rarely forms as there is no system of communication in place. Previous Mutations: Flagella {5} Mitochondria {5} Vacuole {5} Phagocytosis {4} Conservation Status: VU
Unknown: (Active Glycovore) Mutation: Horizontal Gene Transfer (4) Description: E. obscurus has developed a way to steal genetic information from species that it encounters. This allows it to mimic the adaptations of others in its environments. Previous Mutations: Flagella {5} Mitochondria {5} Cilia {4} Failed Horizontal Gene Transfer {2} Conversation Status: VU
Longisquama: (Passive Aerobic Respirator) Mutation: Flagella (4) Low Pressure Tolerance (6) Description: E. longisquamae has become able to tolerate the lower water pressure found outside its native environment. As such, it is much better able to seek sustenance and refuge away from the vents. Additionally, it has developed an inefficient flagella. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {7} Failed Vertical Gene Transfer {1} Failed Vertical Gene Transfer {2} Vertical Gene Transfer {4} Conservation Status: EN
Bigyihsuan: (Active Phagocytizer) Mutation: Low Pressure Tolerance (2+1) Description: E. magnayihsuanae has not changed notably from past generations (low pressure tolerance follows the same rules as reproduction). Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {4} Cilia {6} Cilia Aided Phagocytosis {4} Adhesive Proteins {7} Conservation Status: NT (most fit)
Atrox: (Active Lancer) Mutation: Bracing Proteins (4) Description: M. atroxi has developed proteins that can hold its protruding filaments together when it rams into other cells. These proteins are not entirely fail safe, but keep the balances tipped in a favorable way. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {1} Improved Mitochondria {7} Cilia {1} Flagella {4} Conservation Status: EN
Achievements: First to Reach Land: One additional vote that will have a +2 applied to it. First to Drive Another Species Extinct: A guaranteed super mutation.
This round is finally out. I apologize not only for the delay but also for being a bit short in my responses to your questions. I've been busy and when I write things in a rush they become kinda mean. Yes, one of the reasons this round is late is because of Star Wars. I recommend seeing it. I have been trying to get rounds out as quick as possible, but I think that the end result of that is that I'm getting sloppy. So I have a quick request: please let me know in your vote if you would like this limited to one update a day or if you would prefer the rounds to be out as quickly as possible (or if you have a middle ground that I don't see). I'm fine either way, this is an action vs immersion thing that I leave entirely to your discretion.

Well this hasn't been going how I've planned, oh well, I guess I'll go for chloroplast so I get some form of survival Edit: to answer your question I personally like things that are more in-depth and thought out rather then rushed. So I'm fine with the one a day thing, but it's whatever you as the gm prefer.

(I'm not sure what you mean by low pressure tolerance follows the same rules as reproduction.)

Oh! Sorry Bigyihsuan I mean that in order to have a successful dice roll it has to be 4 or greater. I should have made that clearer.

I want to mutate phagocytosis for the usual roll and chloroplasts for my reproduction roll. That way I ensure a nutrient source, either as an autotroph or heterotroph. And I try to life at much near the surface as I can.

I would like low pressure as my sex vote and a horn of some sort to pierce through cells if that is possible. Also I don't midn you doing it once a day or so. I'm just glad I can play this game

I will post an update within the hour, sorry. I was traveling and the internet at my destination went down.

Round 6:
Event: N/A
SkyGuy98: (Active Glycovore) Mutation: Chloroplast (6) Description: E. cieloviri has caught an evolutionary break. They have taken in a stray photosynthetic organism that was caught adrift in the icy depths of the planet's oceans. This organism managed to survive long enough to be captured because it can utilize photons emitted by the lava flowing from underwater volcanoes near the vents. This gives it a sickly cyan color. One can only imagine its effectiveness near the surface, once E. cieloviri evolves low pressure tolerance. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {2} Flagella {4} Failed Vertical Gene Transfer {3} Better Mitochondria {5} Phagocytosis {3} Conservation Status: EN
Robotranicrex: (Active Phagocytizer) Mutation: Communication Molecules (1) Description: E. roborexi has a serious problem. It has developed molecules that actively encourage members of its species to flee from each other. This makes their binding proteins almost entirely useless, and will prevent colonization and multicellular behavior until it is corrected. Fortunately this species was not dependent on community. Previous Mutations: Flagella {5} Mitochondria {5} Vacuole {5} Phagocytosis {4} Binding Proteins {6} Conservation Status: VU
Unknown: (Active Glycovore) Mutation: Predatory Pilus (5) R: Low Pressure Tolerance (5) Description: E. obscurus has captured the genes responsible for e. longisquamae's low pressure tolerance. This enables it to live in waters farther from the vents. It has also modified a group of cilia to act as a solid offensive pilus. Using this, the species is able to lance enemy cells open and steal their cytosolic contents. Previous Mutations: Flagella {5} Mitochondria {5} Cilia {4} Failed Horizontal Gene Transfer {2} Horizontal Gene Transfer {4} Conversation Status: VU
Longisquama: (Active Aerobic Respirator) Mutation: Phagocytosis (2) R: Chloroplasts (4) Description: E. longisquamae is now host to a defective membrane target protein that incites exocytosis just as frequently as it incites endocytosis (how exactly this happens is anyone's guess). This means that there is only a 50/50 chance that a prey species will be engulfed. And, when one isn't engulfed, the cell looses a great deal of mass to the exocytosis. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {7} Failed Vertical Gene Transfer {1} Failed Vertical Gene Transfer {2} Vertical Gene Transfer {4} Flagella {4} Low Pressure Tolerance {6} Conservation Status: NT
Bigyihsuan: (Active Phagocytizer) Mutation: Low Pressure Tolerance (4) Description: E. magnayihsuanae is now able to cope with the reduced pressure found in waters away from its ancestral homes. This should allow it to find more free nutrients and eventually reach the inviting shores of a tropical island or the main continent. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {4} Cilia {6} Cilia Aided Phagocytosis {4} Adhesive Proteins {7} Failed Low Pressure Tolerance {3} Conservation Status: NT
Atrox: (Active Lancer) Mutation: Phagocytosis (5) Description: M. atroxi is now able to engulf enemy cells that venture near enough to its membrane. Combined with its spiky actin filaments of doom (trademark), this species finds itself with an abundance of foodstuffs at the vents. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {1} Improved Mitochondria {7} Cilia {1} Flagella {4} Bracing Proteins {4} Conservation Status: VU
Achievements: First to Reach Land: One additional vote that will have a +2 applied to it. First to Drive Another Species Extinct: A guaranteed super mutation.

Alright, now I won't die next turn lets do vertical gene transfer to try to catch up
