|Brain Coral=
{{Databank
|name=[[Brain Coral]]
|image=Braincoral.jpg
|description=
A permanent, growing colony of microscopic organisms. This coral species has adapted to filter carbon dioxide from the environment, using the carbon to build the colony, and expelling the oxygen from specialized exhaust funnels. It is quite hardy, suggesting samples from a mature specimen could be grown artificially.

Assessment: Air tanks are equipped to siphon oxygen from the water where possible

|Coral Shell Plate=
{{Databank
|name=[[Coral Shell Plate]]
|image=Shell Plates.jpg
|description=
This variant of coral has adapted to survive in close proximity to other corals, filtering nutrients from the water and sharing them via a spore-like substance which grows around the base.

Assessment: No practical applications discovered

|Earthen Coral Tubes=
{{Databank
|name=[[Earthen Coral Tubes]]
|image=
|description=
Genetic resemblances to the giant coral tubes encountered elsewhere suggests evolutionary divergence approximately 100,000 years ago, with this subspecies being substantially lower in calcium content, and specializing in growing in smaller, denser packs at deeper levels.

Assessment: No practical applications discovered

|Giant Coral Tubes=
{{Databank
|name=[[Giant Coral Tubes]]
|image=
|description=
The variety of coral formations on 4546B appear to be different solutions to the same problem of maximizing water and nutrient flow throughout the colony. These particular variants funnel water down a tube, filtering nutrients as they pass. Their size suggests they have been highly successful.

Assessment: Coral tube samples are rich in calcium, exploitable in bleach fabrication

}}

|Pyrocoral=
{{Databank
|name=[[Pyrocoral]]
|image=PyrocoralEncy.PNG
|description=
This coral species is unlike any other encountered on 4546B in so far as it relies on magma flow rather than water current to deliver nutrients. As lava rises up from the planet's core and erupts at vents, this coral forms around the base until eventually it has surrounded the entire vent. Lava is then funneled up through the coral, allowing it to siphon minerals and heat as it goes.

|Table Coral=
{{Databank
|name=[[Table Coral]]
|image=
|description=
Each disk is an individual colony of microorganisms, filtering nutrients from the water.

Growth patterns indicate the colonies are in direct competition for positions with superior current or light. Unlike other coral species its structure is malleable, softly pulsating as it pumps nutrients to its extremities, and only turning rigid when it senses physical assault.

The jewel-like nodes in the surface are concentrated build-ups of rare minerals the coral is unable to process.

Assessment: Exploitable in computer chip fabrication

|Tree Mushroom=
{{Databank
|name=[[Tree Mushroom]]
|image=
|description=
Analysis of these large organic structures reveals a microcosm of co-operating, co-habiting and competing lifeforms.

The main trunk is a species of coral, some colonies up to 50,000 years old. The caps which line it share more in common with earth fungi. Other organisms grow on the structure wherever there is space and light.

Surrounding waters are dense with herbivorous lifeforms in the 1mm - 10mm range, to the extent that larger herbivores appear to have mostly abandoned the area.

Assessment: Exploitable

|Ampeel=
{{Databank
|name=[[Ampeel]]
|image=Shocker.jpg
|description=
A powerful and inquisitive predator found inhabiting the deeper waters of the reefs and bulb bush colonies.

1. Electrical Prongs:<br />
Torso-mounted prongs generate a powerful electrical current which the ampeel uses to incapacitate its prey.

2. Jaws:<br />
A large, flexible jaw, studded with sharp teeth. If a faster, stronger and hungrier predator lives on the reefs, it appears to avoid the ampeel.

Assessment: Avoid or incapacitate
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Ampeel]]
}}

|Biter=
{{Databank
|name=[[Biter]]
|image=Biter-0.png
|description=
Vicious, pack-hunting predator. 94% muscle, 4% connective tissue, 2% brain. Indiscriminate when hungry. Almost always hungry.

1. Specialized Olfactory Antenna:<br />
Employed in detection of bodily fluids in the water at impressive range.

2. Secondary Pair of Eyes:<br />
Likely dedicated to detecting the peripheral movement of larger predators, and hungry members of its own species.

3. Overdeveloped Tail Fin:<br />
Favors out-pacing and outnumbering their prey over individual maneuverability. Calculations suggest creatures up to 100x the biter's body weight could succumb to a focused assault by a pack of ten.

Assessment: Avoid packs - Try not to bleed
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Biter]]
}}

|Blighter=
{{Databank
|name=[[Blighter]]
|image=Biter BK variant.jpg
|description=
Small predator that shares close resemblance to the more common biter, but tends towards a more solitary, less aggressive hunting style.

1. Olfactory Stalk:<br />
While the red-tipped protrusion on the blighter's head once served as sensory apparatus, it has adapted not to chase but to coax its prey into its path. As prey creatures are attracted to the dancing of the stalk, the blighter can dart forward to catch and consume them.

2. Teeth:<br />
One row of sharp, piercing teeth is all the blighter needs to tear through its prey.

3. Eyes:<br />
This creature has found little use for eyes in the deep, dark caverns it inhabits, and its eyeballs are likely sensitive to nothing more than broad fluctuations in local lightsources (eg when a meal is crossing its path).

Assessment: Avoid or incapacitate
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Blighter]]
}}

|Boneshark=
{{Databank
|name=[[Boneshark]]
|image=Boneshark-2.png
|description=
A large and powerful predator that lives in small groups and fiercely defends its hunting grounds.

1. Thickly-armored Exoskeleton:<br />
Suggests defensive adaptation either to larger predators, or in-species aggression. Marked similarity to the segmented exoskeleton of the sand shark, suggesting a relatively recent common ancestor.

2. Large Eyeballs:<br />
Consistent with high light sensitivity, likely for hunting of luminescent prey in low-light environments.

Generally slow and unresponsive as a means of energy conservation, they will act with uncompromising speed and aggression against any threat to their territory.

Assessment: Avoid - May be distracted by light sources
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Boneshark]]
}}

|Crabsnake=
{{Databank
|name=[[Crabsnake]]
|image=Crabsnake-0.png
|description=
This lifeform appears to live in symbiosis with the local flora. All encountered specimens have been located within 50m of jellyshroom flora, frequently within the plants themselves.

1. Jaws:<br />
The crabsnake has two pairs of fangs, and one larger claw on either side. It plunges these claws into its prey, locking them in place while the inner jaw tears through the flesh.

2. Jellyshroom Symbiosis:<br />
Jellyshrooms provide the perfect lair from which to ambush their prey, and protect their young. The presence of crabsnakes likely deters herbivores from feeding on the jellyshroom itself, thus ensuring the relationship continues.

3. Behavior:<br />
Crabsnakes display territorial behavior when threatened, patrolling the cave systems in which they reside.

Assessment: Avoid
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Crabsnake]]

|Crabsquid=
{{Databank
|name=[[Crabsquid]]
|image=Crabsquid-0.png
|description=
This large predator can be found in deep waters, where it lurks amongst the blood kelp and membrain trees in search of prey. It can deploy a powerful electromagnetic pulse to defend itself.

1. Limbs:<br />
10 limbs feature different appendages for swimming, walking, hunting, and possibly even tool use. Creatures caught in its grasp are expertly butchered and quickly consumed.

2. Behavior:<br />
Rays and other illuminated herbivores are its usual prey, and it will approach and attack any light source in the vicinity. Its EMP blast was likely developed as a response to predation by creatures with electrical hunting mechanisms.

3. Intelligence:<br />
While crabsquids appear to have large brains and a resemblance to the intelligent squids of earth, the organ inside the creature's head is in fact its stomach, which it must fill with startling regularity.

Assessment: Neutralizes electrical equipment - Lights attract its (unwanted) attention
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Crabsquid]]
}}

|Crashfish=
{{Databank
|name=[[Crashfish]]
|image=Crash-1.png
|description=
This unusual species has developed an emergency defense mechanism based on mutually assured destruction.

1. Forward-mounted Eye:<br />
Enables the creature to identify and track potential predators.

2. Sulfur Plant:<br />
The sulfur plant has evolved to feed on sulfuric compounds secreted by the crashfish, which makes its nest within its leaves. Stronger, more protective plants provide superior nesting grounds, which in turn provide the plant with more nutrients from larger crashfish.

3. Defense Mechanism:<br />
Concentrations of sulfur build up in the organism over time. If the crashfish collides with something at sufficient speed the spikes on its torso are impacted, triggering an explosive chemical reaction.

Assessment: Equip stasis rifle, repulsion cannon or similar before approaching shallow caves
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Crashfish]]
}}

|Lava Lizard=
{{Databank
|name=[[Lava Lizard]]
|image=Lava Lizard-0.png
|description=
Medium-sized predator adapted for life in volcanic regions, and remarkably able to spit molten rock at its foes.

1. Fore-mounted Mandibles:<br />
Designed to do maximum damage to prey; sharp internal teeth tear through flesh and bone alike.

2. Scar Tissue:<br />
Likely due to regular exposure to magma, lava lizards build up a thick layer of scar tissue over time, which enables them to withstand ever greater temperatures, inside and out.

3. Behavior:<br />
It is able to both defend itself by burying its body in magma, and to go on the offensive by spitting molten rock at its foes.

Assessment: Avoid, especially in the presence of lava flow
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Lava Lizard]]
}}

|Mesmer=
{{Databank
|name=[[Mesmer]]
|image=Mesmer-1.png
|description=
Small, carnivorous lifeform with a unique hunting mechanism that enables it to hypnotize its foes.

1. Outer Wings:<br />
The mesmer swims using a number of wings which can be angled up and forwards on approaching its prey. Tiny lenses on the surface can be tilted independently to create mesmerizing patterns which flood the victim's brain with enticing messages, interpreted in whatever form is most convincing by the target.

2. Outer Shell:<br />
The mesmer can open the jawlike recess in its protective outer shell in order to [ERROR463] share its beauty... Do not resist...

Assessment: Draw closer
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Mesmer]]
}}

|River Prowler=
{{Databank
|name=[[River Prowler]]
|image=RIver_Prwoler.png
|description=
A fast, agile predator discovered at great depths.

1. Jaws:<br />
Powerful jaws used for both savaging prey and warding off larger predators.

2. Torso:<br />
Its eel-like torso is highly vulnerable, consisting predominantly of spinal column and cartilage. It shows significant overlap with other eel-like predators on 4546B.

3. Attack Profile:<br />
It will aggressively keep its jaws facing its opponent, but smaller, faster lifeforms may have the advantage.

Assessment: Avoid
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[River Prowler]]
}}

|Sand Shark=
{{Databank
|name=[[Sand Shark]]
|image=Sand Shark-0.png
|description=
A powerful, medium-sized predator that burrows into the sand and ambushes its prey from below. As with many predators it may be possible to temporarily distract sand sharks by feeding any hungry specimens that draw close.

1. Forward Dorsal Fin:<br />
The unusual location of this fin suggests a purpose unrelated to movement through the water. It may be employed in shifting sand beneath the surface, or in mating rituals, or may simply be an evolutionary dead end.

2. Segmented Exoskeleton:<br />
Thick armor plating renders the sand shark almost immune to attack from above. While it is capable of impressive acceleration its exoskeleton prevents it from changing direction quickly. The sand shark is thus a perfectly-designed ambush hunter, but ill-suited to sustained pursuits.

3. Feet:<br />
Ill-designed for ambulation. Likely used to disturb the surface of the sand so the lifeform can burrow into the ground.

Assessment: Avoid - Be vigilant for ambush in sandy biomes
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Sand Shark]]
}}

|Stalker=
{{Databank
|name=[[Stalker]]
|image=Stalker-1.png
|description=
A streamlined predator encountered in the kelp forests in wait of prey leaving the safety of the shallows to feed. The stalker likely carved out its evolutionary niche at the sweet spot between speed and size millions of years ago, and may be one of the oldest species on the planet.

The stalker appears to be attracted to titanium deposits, which tends to sharpen and put stress on its teeth.

As with many predators, it may be possible to temporarily distract hungry stalkers by feeding them.

1. Teeth:<br />
The stalker's teeth are unusually hard, and fast-growing. Its elongated snout can deliver huge biting pressure to larger attackers, while also being used to reach small herbivores seeking refuge amongst the rocks.

2. Night-vision:<br />
Retinal layering on the eyeball suggests adaptation for night-time hunting.

3. Dorsal Ridges:<br />
These ridges can be moved independently to deliver superior maneuverability.

4. Pelvic Fins:<br />
Long and powerful, the stalker has evolved to hunt the fastest of prey.

Assessment: Stalker teeth may have applications in enameled glass fabrication
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Stalker]]
}}

|Stalker Teeth=
{{Databank
|name=[[Stalker Teeth]]
|image=
|description=
Extended analysis of acquired dental samples has been completed. Samples matched to species designated 'stalker'.

Stalker teeth exhibit extraordinary lightness and strength, and contain only trace amounts of calcium. The edges show signs of wear, and are studded with metal flakes, providing evidence that the stalkers chew on metal deposits in order to sharpen their teeth.

Assessment: Applications as a natural substrate in enameled glass fabrication
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Stalker Teeth]]
}}

|Warper=
{{Databank
|name=[[Warper]]
|image=Warper-0.png
|description=
An aggressive creature with the ability to teleport itself and others in space. No genetic crossover identified with indigenous lifeforms. Demonstrates no recognized defensive behavior.

1. Head:<br />
Mechanisms located in the head region provide its warping capability, which it uses to stalk its targets.

2. Torso:<br />
Appears to hunt other lifeforms, but no digestive organs have been identified. Internal structure considerably more complex than other known organisms. Unable to distinguish whether organic or artificial in nature.

Assessment: Further research required

|Ancient Skeleton=
{{Databank
|name=[[Ancient Skeleton|Ancient Fossilized Skeleton]]
|image=Fox3d-entertainment-caveskeletonscan.jpg
|description=
The skeleton of a million-year-old, armored carnivore. Projections suggest this lifeform would have been larger than any living creature encountered on the planet.

The oceans of the time would have been very different to support lifeforms of this size, with more open geography and many more individuals in the leviathan range.
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Ancient Skeleton|Ancient Fossilized Skeleton]]
}}

|Gargantuan Fossil=
{{Databank
|name=[[Gargantuan Fossil]]
|image=GargantuanFossilEncy.png
|description=
The fossilized remains of an extinct super predator. Its sheer size would have prohibited it from entering such an enclosed space, suggesting the geography of the planet has shifted around it over time. A true apex predator.

- Dated at approximately three million years old<br />
- Rib cage measurements suggest the creature was eel-like in structure<br />
- Calculations suggest this is only the front third of the specimen<br />
- The remains now support a vibrant microcosm of life

NOTE: There are a series of precise, angular indentations on the rib cage, suggesting a third party has taken samples from the specimen at a previous time.

|Mixed Leviathan Fossils=
{{Databank
|name=Mixed Leviathan Fossils
|image=
|description=
These fossils likely came from an ancient ancestor of the leviathans which inhabit the planet today. The relative size and delicacy of the bones suggests they formed part of the ear canal, or some other complex internal structure.

|Reaper Leviathan Skeletons=
{{Databank
|name=[[Reaper Leviathan Skeletons|Reaper Leviathan Skeleton]]
|image=Fox3d-entertainment-reaperskeleton.jpg
|description=
Reapers are ill-suited to high temperature environments, suggesting this creature was forced down into the active lava zone by conditions outside its control.

- Trace muscle tissue remains on the bones, indicating the specimen died in recent months<br />
- Burns and other physical damage to the skeletal structure<br />
- Likely became prey for something bigger

}}

|Remains of Research Specimen=
{{Databank
|name=Remains of Research Specimen
|image=ThetaEncy.PNG
|description=
The skeletal remains of a vast predator, housed within an artificial habitat.

1. Habitat:<br />
The environment constructed to house the specimen suggests it was kept alive in containment for research purposes for months, or even years. Organic matter indicates the habitat once supported extensive plantlife, though it has since decayed. When the facility collapsed this specimen was either left to die, or killed on the spot.

2. Evolution:<br />
While it shares some skeletal traits with the biter and sand shark, including its distinctive double eye sockets, this fossilized specimen is significantly larger, and features unusual forearms rarely seen in aquatic species. This species has likely gone extinct in the past thousand years, and its evolutionary relatives have evolved almost beyond recognition.

|Rib Cage Samples=
{{Databank
|name=Rib Cage Samples
|image=
|description=
A display case containing an array of rib cages harvested from the indigenous lifeforms. There is a particular focus in this instance on vertebrate skeletal structures. While some of these skeletons match organisms encountered on the planet so far, most cannot be matched with confidence, suggesting either that there are species out there not yet accounted for, or that they have become extinct since these samples were collected.

|Sea Dragon Leviathan Skeleton=
{{Databank
|name=[[Sea Dragon Leviathan Skeleton]]
|image=Fox3d-entertainment-seadragonskeleton.jpg
|description=
The semi-intact skeletal structure of a leviathan class predator.

1. Head Trauma:<br />
There is clear evidence of massive physical trauma to the head. The damage is so severe it was likely the cause of death, and must have occurred somewhere nearby. Damage is consistent with a high speed collision with a solid object.

2. Age:<br />
Something in the environment has helped to preserve these remains, but calcium decay suggests an approximate time of death one thousand years ago. Bone growth suggests the creature was in the egg-laying stage of its lifecycle.

|Crimson Ray=
{{Databank
|name=[[Crimson Ray]]
|image=Fire Ray Bio Scan.png
|description=
One of the largest rays on the planet, displaying generally docile behavior.

1. Thick Scaling:<br />
Scales formed on the skin protect this ray from extreme temperatures, allowing it to survive in areas unpopulated by competing scavengers.

2. Forward-mounted Eye Sockets:<br />
Suggests a predatory evolutionary history, left behind long ago.

Assessment: Inedible

}}

|Cuddlefish=
{{Databank
|name=[[Cuddlefish]]
|image=CuteFish.jpg
|description=
A small, gray-colored herbivore, the cuddlefish displays high levels of intelligence, curiosity and attachment. Strangely this species has not been encountered in the wild, and the scanned specimen had to be artificially hatched within an alien containment unit.

1. Lifecycle:<br />
In the absence of wild specimens little can be known for certain about the cuddlefish's lifecycle. It is possible that environmental conditions have changed, forcing the species to the edge of extinction, and leaving its eggs in permanent stasis. It is also possible the cuddlefish has been genetically altered, or even imported to 4546B from another world.

2. Behavior:<br />
We do know that the cuddlefish is a herbivore which displays highly social behavior in its interspecies interactions. As was observed in earth dolphins before their extinction, this creature seems to understand the concept of other minds, the prime indicator of true sentience, and attempts to communicate with a series of chirps and chirrups.

3. Interaction:<br />
Evidence suggests the cuddlefish is capable of understanding and following simple commands, in addition to assessing the emotional state of individuals around it and responding in kind.

Assessment: Emotional connection between living creatures is an essential component of psychological health
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Cuddlefish]]
}}

|Gasopod=
{{Databank
|name=[[Gasopod]]
|image=Gasopod-0.png
|description=
A slow-moving lifeform, and one of the larger herbivores on the planet. Providing a substantial meal to would-be predators, the gasopod protects its domain by filling the surrounding water with poisonous and corrosive pods whose contents dissolve even synthetic fibers.

1. Filtration System:<br />
Thick, non-reactive skin and multiple gill layers render this creature impervious to the noxious acid clouds it produces.

2. Algae Gland:<br />
A bulbous, sack-like appendage on the rear end. A luminescent yellow algae grows inside the sack and produces the poisonous compound. Abdominal muscles can contract, causing the algae gland to emit the noxious compound into the surrounding water.

3. Large Pelvic Fins:<br />
Capable of powerful movement through the water when moving in small herds.

4. Behavior:<br />
Gasopods appear to be social in nature, and may even use their emissions in their relationship rituals. Their audible calls are likely signifiers of nearby threats, or food sources.

Assessment: Approach with caution - Acidic pods may be retrieved and re-purposed
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Gasopod]]
}}

|Ghostray=
{{Databank
|name=[[Ghostray]]
|image=Ghost Ray Encyclopedia.png
|description=
This ray species has adapted to deep-sea conditions. Its body is fully protected by a translucent skin, and its large wings are capable of generating considerable thrust.

1. Poisonous Flesh:<br />
As is common for rays on 4546B the ghostray's flesh is inedible, making it one of the more resilient herbivores.

2. Feeding Behavior:<br />
Feeds on plant matter that has settled on the ground in deep sea caverns.

Assessment: Inedible
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Ghostray]]
}}

|Jellyray=
{{Databank
|name=[[Jellyray]]
|image=Jellyray-0.png
|description=
This species has adapted to low-light environments with a translucent, luminescent body.

1. Luminescent Body:<br />
This adaptation may help to light up the surrounding area for foraging, ward away predators, and identify the organism to others of its kind.

2. Light-Sensitivity:<br />
Smaller creatures have been seen swimming in the jellyray's wake to take advantage of the light source for their own ends, and the ray itself will approach light sources, perhaps mistaking them for others of its own species.

Assessment: Inedible
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Jellyray]]
}}

|Rabbit Ray=
{{Databank
|name=[[Rabbit Ray]]
|image=Rabbit Ray-0.png
|description=
A herbivorous aquatic lifeform, rabbit rays appear to live serene and solitary lives, with few predators, a natural sense of curiosity and awesomely poisonous flesh.

1. Ears:<br />
Twin orange appendages mounted on the head sense vibration in the water.

2. Undulating Wings:<br />
Markedly similar method of transportation to that of earth rays. Zero genetic resemblance detected, suggesting these two species independently developed similar solutions to their environmental circumstances.

Evidence indicates its large, side-facing eyes are relatively recent adaptations. It is likely there are related ray species in other environmental biomes on the planet.

Assessment: Inedible but harmless
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Rabbit Ray]]
}}

|Skyray=
{{Databank
|name=[[Skyray]]
|image=SkyRay.jpg
|description=
The skyray has a bird-like head, and feathered wings which enable it to fly. Skyrays are commonly found circling floating structures, and rarely venture far out to sea. They will perch on dry land, but are prone to flee on approach.

1. Wings:<br />
Although its wings give it some resemblance in silhouette to the waterborne rays on 4546B, analysis shows no greater genetic overlap with those species than the planetary average - in fact the skyray appears to have split off the evolutionary tree much earlier than most.

2. Diet:<br />
Largely seed-based. Skyrays have not been observed diving for food, which implies they rely on land-based plants for their survival.

Assessment: Presence may indicate nearby dry land.
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Skyray]]
}}

|Bladderfish=
{{Databank
|name=[[Bladderfish]]
|image=Bladderfish-0.png
|description=
This unusual herbivore appears to be mostly defenseless, and bears little resemblance to the other lifeforms around it.

1. Semi-permeable Bladder:<br />
The bladderfish is able to filter air and seawater into its body cavity through a unique membrane which surrounds its spine like a bladder. This allows it to remove and consume organic particulate caught on the way, and adjust its buoyancy.

2. Open-ended Vascular Tubing:<br />
Can be angled and contracted to pump out water and achieve low-velocity, guided propulsion.

Largely oblivious to threats, and practically immobile at night, its only identified defense mechanism is that it's composed almost entirely of water, air and cartilage.

Assessment: Edible (oxygen may be retrieved from the bladder and added to tanks on consumption); membrane has applications as a natural water filter
|source= [[Scanner|Scan]] [[Bladderfish]]
}}

|Boomerang=
{{Databank
|name=[[Boomerang]]
|image=Boomerang-0.png
|description=
A herbivore encountered in large numbers, found to frequent shallow waters and move in schools.

1. Serrated Teeth:<br />
Suggests adaptation for grinding corals other herbivores are unable to digest.

2. Twin-fins:<br />
Unusually, this species' two fins are a cartilaginous extension of its skeleton. They are less prone to damage and provide superior propulsion, but are also harder to grow back. The bright blue tips are in fact the ends of its digestive tract, where the luminescence of the corals it consumes is most focused.

Most active during daylight hours, and prone to flee on approach, the boomerang can more easily be observed at night when its luminescence gives it away and it seeks the shelter of the seabed.

Assessment: Edible
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Boomerang]]
}}

|Eyeye=
{{Databank
|name=[[Eyeye]]
|image=Eyeye-0.png
|description=
An extreme evolutionary adaptation where 90% of the lifeform's body mass is dedicated to the ocular cavity.

1. Over-sized Eyeball:<br />
Deep-set rings in the lens suggest specialization for identifying its predators in low-light environments, long before they come into attack range.

2. Underdeveloped Fins:<br />
Incapable of fast movement, this species is vulnerable to agile predators at close range. Shark species may have evolved hunting techniques to close on the eyeye unseen from above, below or behind.

This organism and the common peeper share a common evolutionary ancestor. While the eyeye has sacrificed maneuverability, it shares and enhances its cousin's powerful eyesight. The ancestral 'alpha peeper' may have been one of the first lifeforms on 4546B to develop eyesight, many millions of years ago.

Assessment: Edible (low calorie count)

|Garryfish=
{{Databank
|name=[[Garryfish]]
|image=Garryfish-0.png
|description=
Slow-moving and curious herbivore, camouflage indicates adaptation for evasive behavior on the ocean floor.

1. Eye Stalks:<br />
May be beneficial when watching for predators from hiding places amongst the coral.

2. Behavior:<br />
More active during daylight hours, but slow and docile at all times, the garryfish's survival depends on a combination of camouflage, and predators who can get a more filling meal elsewhere.

Assessment: Edible

}}

|Holefish=
{{Databank
|name=[[Holefish]]
|image=Holefish-0.png
|description=
A very small herbivore found in low numbers, often around cave system entrances where their skin coloration blends into the background.

1. Bored-out Tail Fin:<br />
By manipulating the size and shape of the hole in its tail it can perform unpredictable maneuvers.

2. Size:<br />
Smaller than most other herbivores, presumably due to lack of vegetation in low-light environments.

Assessment: Edible
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Holefish]]
}}

|Hoopfish=
{{Databank
|name=[[Hoopfish]]
|image=Hoopfish-0.png
|description=
Small, school-mentality prey fish with a unique method of propulsion, and a distant relative of the bladderfish.

1. Antennae:<br />
Rather than swimming, this lifeform uses the fine green antennae which encircle its body to alter the composition of the water in front of it, allowing it to 'sail' into the low density space created.

2. Purple/Green Coloration:<br />
May be a camouflage adaptation for mid-range light wavelengths, possibly indicating the hoopfish is more active at dawn and dusk.

3. Behavior:<br />
While schools of hoopfish will form periodically and evade predators en masse, this behavior is more social than it is defensive, and lone hoopfish are often found hunting for food and displaying generally curious behavior.

Assessment: Edible
|source=[[Scanner|Scan]] [[Hoopfish]]
}}

|Hoverfish=
{{Databank
|name=[[Hoverfish]]
|image=Hoverfish-0.png
|description=
A small, cautious herbivore, commonly found in kelp-rich environments.

1. Charged Footpads:<br>
Six unique limb appendages feature charged pads capable of ionizing the surrounding water. The hoverfish uses this ability to maintain its position against the current as it feeds from kelp and lichen.

Assessment: Edible

}}

|Magmarang=
{{Databank
|name=[[Magmarang]]
|image=
|description=
This organism is an adaptation of the common boomerang, evolved to survive in high temperature environments.

1. Coloration:<br />
Dark red coloration helps this subspecies to blend into igneous rock environments. Orange detailing resembles active lava flow, deterring more cautious predators.

2. Behavior:<br />
Marginally bolder than its shallow-dwelling cousins, the magmarang will nonetheless flee any creature larger than itself with impressive speed.

Assessment: Edible

While the shallows and the cave systems are separated by just a few meters of rock, foodstuffs and threats in each biome are completely different. It is possible a small school of peepers was once cut off in the caves, and the oculus species is how they adapted.

1. Highly Developed Night-vision:<br />
Large, complex eyeballs provide this herbivore superior vision in the dark, and an intense phobia of light.

2. Lack of Beak:<br />
While the peeper uses its beak to break down tough corals, the oculus likely feeds on the soft fungal growths of the jellyshroom caves and thus has no need of one.

3. Separated Tail Fin:<br />
The caves in which the oculus lives make it hard to escape from fast predators. The oculus has adapted by splitting its tail fin into five separate tendrils. These tendrils prevent it from swimming as fast as its shallow-water cousin, but each can be detached and regrown, enabling it to escape more easily when caught.

|Peeper=
{{Databank
|name=[[Peeper]]
|image=Peeper-0.png
|description=
A fast prey fish encountered in shallow waters and rich in protein.

1. Developed, Side-facing Eyes:<br />
Capable of discerning colors not just in shallows waters but in a variety of lighting conditions. It is also able to close its eyelids, thus preventing light from reflecting off the lenses and rendering the peeper almost invisible to night time predators.

2. Powerful Fins:<br />
This species has evolved powerful fins which enable rapid acceleration in still water, and the ability to leap meters into the air to avoid pursuers.

3. Beak:<br />
Likely used to break down corals and tough vegetation. An unusually large nasal cavity serves no obvious purpose, and appears to be specially evolved to detect a single, specific enzyme. Nothing encountered on the planet so far produces a matching odor.

4. Expulsion Tubes:<br />
The tubes attached to the peeper's torso are connected directly to its stomach and gills, and appear to be designed to expel its contents on demand. Purpose unclear.

While the peeper is well adapted to survive in shallow waters, a number of its features serve no discernible purpose. It would appear to be just as well suited to survive in deeper waters, and is somewhat more intelligent than the usual small herbivore.

A small herbivorous creature with poor maneuverability, evolved to inhabit high temperature environments.

1. Thermal Camouflage:<br />
Deep red and orange coloration enables this subspecies to blend into volcanic environments and reflect environmental thermal energy, thus rendering it almost invisible to most predators.

2. Thermal Vision:<br />
Delicate, light-based eyesight is impractical at these temperatures, and the red eyeye has developed thermal vision in its place. In this species' volcanic domain edible plant matter and potential predators are the coldest entities in range.

|Ghost Leviathan=
{{Databank
|name=[[Ghost Leviathan]]

|description=
This creature is approaching the size limit for sustainable organic lifeforms, and has been designated leviathan class. Adults of the species have been encountered exclusively around the edges of the volcanic crater which supports life on this part of the planet, and react with extreme aggression on approach.

1. Hammerhead:<br />
Cartilaginous extensions of the creature's skull form a hammerhead which protects the ghost leviathan as it performs devastating ramming attacks.

2. Jaws:<br />
While fully capable of tearing through the flesh of any creature in range, all evidence indicates that mature ghost leviathans feed on microscopic lifeforms in the waters around the edges of the inhabited zone. Their vicious attacks on interlopers to their domain are not predatory in nature, but territorial. A creature so vast requires a huge expanse of water to satisfy its daily calorie requirements.

3. Torso:<br />
Its muscled interior body is surrounded by a translucent outer membrane, suggesting adaptation for deep, low-light environments. When threatened it can tense its entire body before lashing out with incredible speed.

4. Lifecycle:<br />
Probable migratory behavior. This specimen was likely born far from the area where it was encountered.

1. Torso:<br />
Soft outer membrane and elongated body enable superior navigation of tight cave environments. Displays some similarities to other eel-like predators in the area, however the ghost leviathan has covered over the electrical prongs on its inner torso with a taut, transparent membrane which delivers superior maneuverability.

2. Diet:<br />
In its juvenile state this leviathan feeds on larger herbivores, and unfortunate members of its own species. They display a remarkable rate of growth which shows no signs of stopping, suggesting that they must abandon their hatching grounds before they grow too large and make for more open waters.

1. Powerful Mandibles:<br />
This leviathan is capable of locking prey in place with four powerful mandibles, and drawing it within reach of its jaws. Simulated pressure exceeds Seamoth crush resistance.

2. Echolocation:<br />
The deep roar emitted by the reaper at regular intervals is effectively sonar - if you can hear it, the reaper can see you.

|Reefback Leviathan=
{{Databank
|name=[[Reefback Leviathan]]
|image=Reefback-1.png
|description=
This vast lifeform is in excess of 30m long and has been designated leviathan class. Fortunately it feeds exclusively on plankton-like lifeforms in the water.

1. Chitinous Shell:<br />
Most of the lifeform's topside and some of its underside is protected by a thick, layered exoskeleton. This suggests an evolutionary path quite different from other organisms on 4546B, most of which are vertebrate in nature. The reefback species has likely been able to grow far larger than other herbivores because anything large enough to break through its shell has long since gone extinct.

2. Enzyme Pods:<br />
Similar in appearance to the algae glands of the gasopod, these organs on the reefback's underside serve some unknown purpose in its digestive system, and are capable of expelling small quantities of stomach enzymes into the surrounding waters.

3. Local Microcosm:<br />
An array of different barnacle and plant species grow on the reefback's shell, thrusting their roots into ancient scars in the chitin, and taking advantage of their mobility to avoid predation. Nonetheless reefbacks will often be pursued by the faster, hungrier herbivores, and thus this leviathan species is a mobile microcosm worthy of years of study in itself.

4. Lifecycle:<br />
Reefbacks's lifespans likely extend through many centuries, should they survive their initial growth cycle. For the first few decades their smaller size would make them vulnerable to carnivorous leviathans. Sociable, seen traveling in small pods and communicating by an echoing call, behavior is consistent with low-level sentience.

|Sea Dragon Leviathan=
{{Databank
|name=[[Sea Dragon Leviathan]]
|image=Sea Dragon Data Bank Entry.png
|description=
A colossal leviathan with reptilian features, seen stalking the very heart of the volcanic crater which underpins life in this area. The scanned specimen measured 112m in length.

1. Heat-Proof Tissue:<br />
Tissue analysis reveals this specimen consists of 1/3 inanimate materials, focused around the chest area. Consumption and retention of mineral substances may explain the lifeform's ability to withstand extremes of temperature. It even appears to be able to consume molten materials and expel them at its adversaries.

2. Forearms:<br />
Evolutionarily distinct forearms are used for both propulsion and offensive purposes. Finding suggests evolutionary divergence from other species on the planet tens of millions of years ago. The sea dragon is likely one of the oldest species on the planet.

3. Behavior:<br />
As the largest carnivorous species encountered on 4546B, almost everything is potential prey. With few substantial targets in the volcanic cave systems the sea dragon likely ventures out into cooler waters to hunt other, smaller leviathans, cornering them and forcing them deeper, where they are ultimately boiled alive.

The sea dragons' size and the restrictions of the cave systems they inhabit suggest their population numbers are extremely low, perhaps in the single digits. While it is not unusual for larger predators to sustain lower populations, it is possible the sea dragon's food sources have diminished over time. This species may be nearing extinction.

A vast bipedal leviathan which roams the reefs in herds, grazing the seafloor.

1. Antennae:<br />
Antennae on the creature's head can detect a range of scents, helping the sea treaders to find fresh grazing pastures, avoid the path of large predators, and sense chemical signals from others of their kind.

2. Carapace:<br />
Thick armour protects the creature from attack by all but the largest of carnivores. Two legs extend from the rear.

3. Elongated Snout:<br />
Used to siphon up plant material from the sea floor, and maintain balance.

4. Behavior:<br />
Large herds would decimate the flora of a single area, thus encouraging the sea treader's migratory behavior. Families keep their young towards the center of the herd, and parents will lash out at over curious interlopers in search of an easy meal.

|Ancient Floater=
{{Databank
|name=[[Floater|Ancient Floater]]
|image=Ancient Floater PDA Encyclopedia.png
|description=
Biodata suggests these vast floaters have matured in an ingenious symbiosis with the land they have attached to.

- The attached landmass is raised in the water, increasing sunlight and encouraging plantgrowth<br />
- As older plants decay, organic residues and nutrients seep into the rock and are consumed by the floater<br />
- These circumstances must have held for thousands of years for a floater to reach this size

Lifecycle:<br />
Immature floaters are borne near the surface, from where they sink to the seabed, attaching to any stable surface they find on the way. Those individuals fortunate enough to attach to a digestible nutrient source will grow in size, thus increasing their buoyancy and drawing whatever they are attached to closer to the surface.

In extreme circumstances a number of floaters may attach to a leviathan class lifeform, forcing it to the surface and effectively asphyxiating it. The body will be consumed over a number of months until eventually dissolving, leaving the floaters free to attach to a new host.

Those creatures which successfully raise a landmass to the surface are rewarded with a burgeoning and permanent food supply, allowing them finally to reproduce and begin the cycle again.

A vast tree encountered in a deep cove, and the only one of its kind encountered on the planet. The tree is surrounded by rays grazing on its pink outer leaves.

1. Bark:<br />
A hardy, fast-growing bark covers the outside of the tree. Minuscule organisms inhabit the notches in the surface.

2. Ghost Leviathan Eggs:<br />
The tree's branches are wrapped around a number of maturing eggs, belonging to the species designated 'ghost leviathan'.

This tree appears to be an ancient nesting ground. The eggs were laid when the tree was young, and now the branches protect and grow with them as they await the right conditions to hatch.

|Unificationism=
{{Databank
|name=Unificationism
|image=
|description=
Religion has been scorned throughout space-faring history, but it has evolved and survived. By combining ancient meditative practices with the foresight of modern science, unificationist pantheism was born.

Determinism teaches us that what has always been, always will be. The future is already decided, and free will is a myth. Gone are the days of casting guilt and original sin on all. Today we understand that we are born innocent, into lives we are not responsible for; we are atoms vibrating in the energy winds of space. Understanding that what we do has no meaning but for ourselves; and understanding that we are just as much a causal part of the universe as the universe is a causal part of us; we can understand that we give meaning to the universe and the universe gives meaning to us. We are people. But we are also gods.

If we are gods, why do we feel imperfect? If there is no authority but our own, why do people keep telling us what to do?

Unificationism has the answer. 300 credits for the opening seminar.
