Additional Non-Sentient Life


Verdant Manifestation
Verdant Manifestation
 

Disposition: Destructive
Rarity: Common
Region: Pardus Core
Emerging from the mysterious and chaotic depths of Oblivion Vortices, Verdant Manifestations are easily distinguished by both their small size and the faint blue glow near the center of their forms. Slowly drifting outward from their point of origin, newly created Manifestations will absorb all forms of energy, enabling them to rapidly grow larger. Though more gaseous than solid, these small Manifestations should not be underestimated as they are highly corrosive against the metal skin of spacecraft.


Developed Manifestation
Developed Manifestation
 

Disposition: Destructive
Rarity: Uncommon
Region: Pardus Core
Having reached the second stage of their metamorphosis, Developed Manifestations are considerably more dangerous than their younger siblings. Aside from having grown much larger, Developed Manifestations have undergone a substantial change in density and are much more resistant to many of the threats space has to offer. No longer largely composed of gases, they have become gelatinous and thick, corrosive to even the most resistant of elements.


Ripe Manifestation
Ripe Manifestation
 

Disposition: Destructive
Rarity: Uncommon
Region: Pardus Core
The eldest and most dangerous of the Manifestations, Ripe Manifestations have reached the third and final stage of their growth, limited only by their incredible density. Likewise their corrosive properties have grown all the more potent, with no known counteragent able to neutralize the scourge. The aimless drifting of these Manifestations makes them all the more dangerous, as they are impossible to predict.


Solar Banshee
Solar Banshee
 

Disposition: Destructive
Rarity: Rare
Region: Pardus Cluster,
Neutral Zone
Little more than apparitions created by solar winds emanated from the most powerful of stars, Solar Banshees receive their name from the horrid wailing cry that can be heard screeching on any nearby radio set as they pass by on their journey through the cosmos. More than just an annoyance or a discomfort to space travelers, these high frequency electromagnetic waves can tear through stone and metal alike, having unexpectedly laid waste to starbases and entire asteroid fields in a single pass. In addition their ethereal form makes them an extremely difficult opponent to combat. The most effective weapons found to date are anything that creates a great deal of EMI (Electromagnetic Inferference), such as electronics, fluorescent lights, and the newly patented intermodulation cannon.


Oblivion Vortex
Oblivion Vortex
 

Disposition: Destructive
Rarity: Rare
Region: Pardus Core
Though similar to the Wormholes and Xholes used in everyday trade and travel, Oblivion Vortices differ from them in some very significant ways; the increased gravitational fields which surround these rifts makes travel through them impossible for even the densest of spacecraft, and their uncanny ability to seal themselves closed in a microsecond would make travel through them a gamble at best. Oblivion Vortices are believed to exist in the 4th dimension, and some argue they exist also in a 5th. Believers in this theory assert that the Manifestations which emerge from the vortex are actually transported from the 5th dimension, while others argue that the Manifestations are merely chunks of super-condensed energy laced with the Lucisti virus that have broken free from the chaotic forces surrounding the vortex.
