Species Data

Edit: Jan 24th: Now with weight and metric equivalents Just a random image of a day of school at Tiffany Meiring's high school... which for some reason involves crossdressing. Maybe they lost a bet? Culuya, who isn't crossdressing, seems to find the situation quite funny... "Upyadawa ja ebba jalakduxen!" is Zukish for "No flying in the halls!" From left to right: Culuya Kasa (Zuke), Igrasa Zhaphe (Muphridian), Binashu Kaja (Zevinowa), Tiffany Meiring (Human), Lauren Halatik (Zuke), Scott Wasuvo Based on a...

Nikki: A random highway? Nick: It's the M-11 loop. Also, this is the access point for the main road though town. It's visible at the top of the next picture, one would turn west on the last road before M-11L, stay on the road though the roundabout, then turn left. That takes you to the road that cross M-11L, the actual onramps and offramps are on side roads on either side of the overpass. Nikki: Sounds a bit confusing. Nick: Anyway, this is in Berkidua, and just to the west is that Faevza interchange and...

Sat. June 10th, 0150AL Brian looked around at the room he suddenly found himself in. All of the walls as well as the floor and the ceiling were metallic, and various computer terminals of some sort were visible, as were several holographic displays. He yawned, and looked down. The part of the floor he was standing on was sunken down a bit, separate from the rest of the room, but otherwise appeared normal. He shook his head, feeling like he was about to fall asleep, and noticed that he was wearing his...

Wed. May 24th, 0150AL Several minutes later, Brad and Brian had arrived back at their condo. As they walked down the hall towards their door, they passed a communal sitting room that’s open to all of the people in the building. Sitting on 2 of the couches were Tiffany and Michael, as well as their mother, along with an unfamiliar dark-skinned human girl. Girl: Ah? More? Rachel: These are Brad and Brian, my eldest sons. Brad is the one on the left. Before she could say anything else, the girl stood up and...

Tanks and a Map

Leech: And to give you something to look at while an update is prepared, a group of 4 Myonian T-3 tanks during training. Leech: And a map of Myon and its surrounding countries. The tanks seem to be training in the eastern part of South Adesre... or maybe the southeastern part of North Adesre. Click for the full size version of the map. Leech: The current Exploration: Leech votes are as follows: A: Head back to explore around the gate -- 0 B: Continue to explore the forest -- 2 C: Head back to base to see...

Nick: And now we're back in Faevza again, this time to the north of the part that got blasted. Nikki: Why we keep having to jump around, I don't know. Nick: Anyway, this is what the highway will look like whenever it gets around to being finished, with plenty of trees. Nikki: There is an off ramp in the upper left, it's just out of the way and hard to see because of the trees. Nick: Off to the left from that interchange is an industrial area. Nikki: Shiny industry. Nick: While the houses are off to the...

Leech: Okay, after that initital goof up, now it is time for Exploration: Leech! Leech: The basic plan here is that in each episode, I will explore and examine the area indicated in the poll in the previous Exploration: Leech episode, depending on which choice is voted the highest by the viewers. As there was no poll or previous episode, I will start out going to Pyomileaci, and then making starting the first poll, which will run until the next Exploration: Leech episode, even if other episodes of...

Wed. May 24th, 0150AL (2006) Brad suddenly sat up and looked around. No control consoles, no Muphridians, no green fireballs, just an ordinary room. One that was currently full of snoring. Just a nightmare, Brad thought to himself, then laid back down to attempt to go back to sleep. However, the alarm clock on his bedside table had other ideas as it started to buzz. Brian: Ugh… Brian swatted at the alarm clock after a couple of seconds, missing it twice before finally making it turn off. The two of them...

Leech: And now, coming from Leech Labs HQ, it's Exploration: Leech! *A note is beamed in* Leech: Wait, Galesfe City's on today? Ooops, sorry! I'll see you again next time on Exploration: Leech! Nick: Do I have to do the comments with you? Nikki: Yes. Leech said so. Nick: Ungh... Nikki: What you see here is an ordinary farm just to the north of the city. Farther off to the north, off the bottom of the picture, is some governmental facility called the RDPM, but I don't remember what exactly it is they do...

Leech: What you see here is the preliminary plans for the main vehicle that will be used later on Exploration: Leech. As you can see, there's still a ways to go. Oh well. Leech: Once it is complete, it will have the ability to fly, as well as drive around, very useful for getting into the hard to reach places to explore. It might also be able to go underwater, as well. Plus, it will be bigger on the inside than the outside! No time travel, though, unfortunately. Leech: Anyone have any mose suggestions on...

Nick: For some reason, we're in Faevza this time instead of Lesirta, on the other side of the city. Nikki: And this is the interchange between the M-11 loop and the part of M-11 that heads though the city. Misa: And it's out of date. Nick: Huh? Nikki: Who are you? Misa: I'm Misa Antacar, but that's not the point. This interchange is going boom. Nikki: What? How? Misa: Like this. *KA-BOOM!* Misa: Hmm... Lets call in the heavy firepower. Nick: Heavy? Misa: An Ancaron planetary assault ship should do nicely,...

Nick: And here's the interchange that Koða blew up... Nikki: Huh? It's different than before. Nick: More compact. Did Koða come back though? Lyhoko: No, that's what happenes when new NAM updates come out right after reconstruction is done. Nikki: NAM? Lyhoko: Does she even know anything about SC4 addons? Nikki: Hey! I heard that! ... what's SC4? Nick: Anyway, here's an ordinary overpass over M-11 with no onramps that somehow ended up in the pictures. Nikki: Where'd that blue haired girl come from, anyway?...

Sat. June 10th, 0150AL Tara's house Brian: YEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHH! Brian jumped out of Tara's bed, and ended up falling flat on his face, shaking the floor, due to misjudging his new height. The door then suddenly flew open with another crash as Tara's mother raced in followed by Tara's younger brother, Tobias. Antje: Tara? She then helped Brian back up, who then sat on the side of Tara's bed. Antje: What's wrong? You're not hurt, are you? Tobias: You're also quieter than usual. Well, aside from the crash....

Myon Space 3: Lost

July 7th, 0150AL Alarm: *BLRRRRNT!* Crew 1: Inertial dampers are offline! Lana: What the-- what did we hit!? Alarm: *BLRRRRNT!* Leisan: What's that alarm? The entire ship was rolling around as it traveled down the wormhole, barely managing to stay pointed forward. This, combined with the failure of the inertial dampers, made it seem as if they were aboard a sailboat in a hurricane. Alarm: *BLRRRRNT!* Lana: Turn off that alarm! Suddenly, a large jolt knocked several people over, though the ride became...

Sorry for the delay, things have been chaotic recently. Wed. June 14th, 0150AL (Note the date: This occurs before "Lost") CS-2 Valmal Paþü: Nothing abnormal coming up on subspace. Captain Laura: Good. Prepare to exit Wapbervlex. The blue glow surrounding the Valmal opened up, and spat the ship out into regular space. First Officer Vashuri: Now, just what can you see out there? Crew 1: Just like the long range scans, there seem to be 9 planets... wait, I'm detecting something else. FA Vashuri: What is it?...

Nick: The city updates seem to be slowing down. Nikki: Well, there is so much going on elsewhere, so it makes sense. Nick: Anyway, we're back up in Lesirta. Nikki: Visible is part of the cabin area, which spreads down away from the lake into the valley, which while it is lower than the lake level, is kept from flooding by a ridge. Nick: Off in the northern part of the valley are some farms, which spread up the valley walls in some places. Nikki: Closeup of the edge of the farming area. They seem to like...

Nick: We will now be headed northeast to the lakeside and mountain cabin section of Lesirta, but in order to get there, we'll have to head around one of the mountains. Nikki: And by some TP'ed trees, apparently. Nick: They should do something about it. Nikki: I hear that the TP problem got so bad they started a riot. Or maybe the rioters were the ones who TP'ed the tress. I don't remember. Nick: The developed area gets a bit narrow here as the hillside gets steeper. Nikki: Going up... Nick: Then begins to...

Day 1 Lana: Any more information on these planets? Crew 1: And what should we call this system? Leisan: Good question... The 3rd planet has noticably higher gravity than Mïyan, as well as an atmosphere roughly 6 times as thick, and it is also quite hot, and humid. Paþü: Not very present sounding. Leisan: From what I can tell, most of the land seems to be covered in plant life, but most of it is nothing like I've ever seen before. So far, I haven't detected any signs of complex animal life. Technically,...

Day 3 + 10 hours: Apparently there is some sort of prophecy of some sort about my arrival... at least that is what they said, I haven't been able to make heads or tails of the thing. "The marked one will arrive from the sky... Born and yet not born, he will lead the people... The Dark Lord will not follow, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not... The marked one will arrive from the sky..." Well, my gills could count as a "mark," and the born part could refer to the Nacran creation process, though...

Nacar: The Resurrection Misa: Hello, my name is Misa Antacar, and I will be your guide though this... CJ section? Wait, didn't I already do this once before? Lyhoko: It's a new version! Misa: New? Lyhoko: Now with new features that the original lacked, like commentary! Misa: What? What if I don't want to do commentary? Lyhoko: The Leech has spoken. Misa: Fine... anyway, first up is an introduction. Intro to Nacar: Nacar ("New Land") is an alternate history story of Misa Antacar, a 5 year old Nacran...

Evil homework... Nick: We're still in Faevza, I see. Nikki: Just closer to downtown. The buildings are taller here, and the shops are bigger! Nick: The residential buildings are bigger, too. Nikki: Where are all the cars? Nick: Good question. Nikki: There's a Chinese and/or Japanese place in here as well, alongside the highway. Nick: Still not many cars, but at least there's some here. Nikki: There's also a resort and waterpark area... that is also suspiciously empty. Nick: And a cemetary. At least those...

Leech: It has been decided, the forest is where we shall go for now! The first thing that is apparent after entering the forest, is that it is strangely quiet compared to forests on earth. There is still the sound of leaves rustling in the wind, but there are no birds to be seen or heard, and it seems like the forest is completely devoid of animal life aside from Leech. However, there are some noises, every so often, of something that sounds like leaves being bit off, somewhere in the undergrowth, so there...

Wed. May 24th, 0150AL Brian: Yes, school is finally over! Tiffany: It’s hot out, though. Brad: Says the girl who is wearing a Hogwarts school uniform. Michael took off his fake glasses before speaking. Michael: How are you not hot? Brad: It’s not that hot out. Tiffany and Michael headed back off home, while Brad, Brian, Tara and Lil stayed behind in the park. Tara: It just seems so calm now, hard to think that a tropical storm could be coming in. The sky was currently partially cloudy, with most of the...
