Template:Class 2 Fauna The Sea Emperor Juvenile is an in-development, passive creature belonging to the Fauna category.
Five Sea Emperor Leviathan Eggs are found in the aquarium of the Primary Containment Facility, being kept alive by the Incubator Device.
These eggs are unable to hatch due to the environment in the Emperor aquarium being designed to match the ideal conditions for an adult Sea Emperor Leviathan, rather than a Sea Emperor Juvenile. As a result, the Precursor Race planned to use the unborn Emperors as a cure for Carar, as their parent was not a viable source of Enzyme 42. Due to this, the eggs themselves are hundreds of years old.
These eggs must be hatched by using certain items at some point in the story. In order to hatch them, the player will need to collect various flora in order to create Hatching Enzymes. These enzymes will trigger the eggs to hatch, and allow the Juveniles to be born.
After hatching, the Juveniles will play with their parent, the Sea Emperor Leviathan, for a short time. Their parent will then escort them to Alien Warp Gates, which they will leave the Primary Containment Facility through. One of the babies may stay behind, however. Adolescent Emperors will be spawned in the world after this.
The Sea Emperor Juveniles, like their parent, are also able to produce Enzyme 42, albeit in larger qualities. Once the Juveniles have hatched, the adult Sea Emperor Leviathan will stop producing Enzyme 42, most likely to allow its children to start.
Appearance
The Juveniles mostly resemble adult Sea Emperor Leviathans in appearance, though there are a few differences in their proportions.
- The head has a much narrower appearance
- The eyes are much larger in comparison to the head than those of an adult Sea Emperor Leviathan
- The mandibles are smaller and are further away from the mouth
- The arms are much shorter and more rounded
- The upper body is far shorter, though the lower body is mostly the same proportion-wise.
- They have a defined neck, unlike adult Sea Emperor Leviathan.
- Where an adult Sea Emperor Leviathan has two large structures on either side of the head, a juvenile has two small lumps.
Story
The Sea Emperor Juveniles are offspring of the last surviving Sea Emperor Leviathan, having been prevented from hatching due to the Incubator Device keeping them from doing so naturally. The player must gather various flora in order to create Hatching Enzymes, which will then allow the eggs to finally hatch.
Before the Precursors had learned how to hatch the Sea Emperor Leviathan Eggs, they retrieved three Sea Emperor Juvenile fetuses from three egg and dissected them.
Data Bank Entry
<tabber> Specimen=
| A juvenile emperor specimen. This species hatches relatively fully formed and independent, perhaps reflecting the fact they must fend for themselves when they are first born away from their parent/s.
This specimen is healthy, and exhibiting signs of a positive attitude to life. It is also producing a highly potent form of the enzyme, which may be capable of fully curing individuals of the alien bacterium. |
|-| Dissected Leviathan Fetus=
|
Background: - Superficial damage to the specimen indicates it was forcibly removed from its egg-casing - The fetus appears to have been terminated for dissection immediately on removal - Cryogenically preserved Bacterial Vaccine Potential: - Analysis of digestive system enzyme production indicates potential for full vaccination against effects of alien bacterium - However the fetus had not fully completed gestation - internal organ development is insufficient for enzyme production Analysis: - A healthy infant specimen may be able to produce the enzymes necessary for a full vaccine against the bacterium - Given the specimen's potential, it is unlikely the alien researchers would have forcibly removed it prior to full development if they had discovered any way to hatch it naturally Recommended Steps: - Unclear |

Trivia
- The reference for some of the animations of the Juvenile Sea Emperors was the child of the animator, Louis Karim.
- Currently, the models of the Juvenile Sea Emperors are the same as the dissected Juvenile Sea Emperor outside the aquarium and does not have an animation, this will be changed in a future update.
