  1. "Post-Insanity Organic Organisms":
  2.  
  3. A gila monster-like reptile with the frills of a frilled dragon and the ability to shoot blood from its eyes like a horned lizard. It is also covered in thorns, like a thorny lizard.
  4. An extremely large form of Beelzebufo with no intelligence, but with the same toxicity as the worst poison dart frogs, and venom comparable to that of a velvet ant.
  5. A massive wolf spider around the same size as a coconut crab, with venom genes derived from Trinidad chevron tarantulas.
  6. A teraterpeton-like reptile with gigantic claws that it uses to pry apart termite and ant mounds.
  7. A eusocial species of silverfish that seems to have been created as a nod to an archaic video game. They live in loose tunnels of dirt underground, and when they want to feed, they wait for something to disturb their nest, and ambush them, rapidly consuming them.
  8. Several saturniid moth species that, when their wings are completely open, reveal a disturbingly human-like face.
  9. A hero shrew with a much larger body and an armadillo-like shell.
  10. Eusocial velvet ants
  11. Gigantic predatory plecostomuses that use suction to drag food to their mouths.
  12. Freshwater shipworms
  13. Several eusocial spiders derived from Anelosimus eximius
  14. An earthworm species that expresses genes derived from "The Fake Men", a species of weird xenoanimal from the planet Saverio that can look vaguely humanoid in weird conditions, despite effectively being an overglorified slug thing. Said genes are a toxin it produces, which acts on the same pathways as capsaicin, with said toxin having a rating on the Scoville scale four times that of resiniferatoxin. This substance is known as pseudohomotoxin.

  18. An attempt at "biomechanical life" by creating a self-reproducing machine that has a small, spider-like body. The machines consist primarily of a mix of mostly nanomachinery, with some biological bits inserted. The biological and machine bits were both derived from Terragen organisms, with the biological bits being heavily modified from rodents, and the machine bits being reverse engineered from a Darwinbot. As a result though, they have two forms of encoding a genome, which is stored in a small compartment in the body that is entirely of the transapient's making. One contains the source code, which has been drastically altered, the other contains copies of genes. These are both passed on down to the next generation, in a successful mating. This allows for an unusual form of evolution to occur, one that can modify both the organic parts and the mechanical parts. It can even increase or decrease the ratio of biological to mechanical parts, as well.
  19.  
  20. After the introduction of these beings, many new religions began to appear, cursing a demon god with a name that is an apparent approximation in many of their tongues of the transapient's name, all converging on the idea due to the resultant horror they were spreading on them. Some groups took advantage of the biomechanical organisms, by breaking their metallic shells, ripping out the organic bits for food, and using the metal for various tools and such. However, this was a hard process to discover, as their bodies were extremely sturdy. The metallic shells, due to the materials they are made of being enigmatic to them at this current time, have often been processed into rudimentary coins and some regions of the world use them as a form of currency accepted in multiple heavily allied nations, for use in purchasing goods.
  21.  
  22. The material is the same alloy that makes up a Darwinbot hull, but usually has some impurities, as these organisms can take in metals and other similar materials from the environment to make up for lacking resources. This includes killing other organisms for such.
  23.  
  24. While the first forms were modelled after spiders in appearance, more are converging on various arthropod-like plans rapidly.
  25.  
  26. Some have speculated they may actually be capable of outliving organic life here.
  27.  
  28. Some have called for their total destruction by using a planet-wide EMP, in the event they evolve into a potential AI-based threat, or replicate out of control into a strange biomechanical grey goo situation. This will not harm the frog provolves, for they do not use any electronics.
