Since the Osakar revamp thread has gone in the direction of fungi being a dominant life form on Osak and since someone pointed out that fungus has chitin like insects instead of cellulous I'm proposing a whole host of lower animals that are insectoid like.<br /><br /><b>Osakarin Insectoids:</b><br />four limbs and two arms (often equipped with pincers or other grasping apparatus) chitonous shells/exo-skeletons.<br /><br />the ubiquitous osakarin cricket- from 2 cm to 8 cm in length (not every creature has to be dangerous and I like to propose some that are harmless but simply add color to the environment but if someone wants to propose an effect or danger that this creature poses to say non native osakarn life I'm open to that) looks similar to the osakarn roach but largely harmless<br /><br />Osakarin Roach- can deliver a painful pinch from its small pincers typically 6-8 cm long. will swarm and try to carry off food- largely a nusiance but could pose some trouble for visitors unfamiliar with them.<br /><br />Bog Beetles, rate as tiny creatures under the AD rules and emit a cloud of gas/spore/whatever that has a dangerous/noxious effect- easily started and uses the skunk like defense to ward off predators, might make it that there are actually thousands of beetle varieties<br /><br />Bog Wasps, like to prey on bog beetles small creature or tiny, has a dangerous sting equipped with a poison that effects osakarin biology meaning that osakars are affected as well as perhaps dralasites but for the other races it simply causes a painful welt- pain penalties apply till cured. might make it that there are about a dozen wasp varieties- at least one other for the tundra and one other for the fungal forest.<br /><br /><b>Under Flora:</b><br />Fungal spires? what are their size, shape, properties?<br /><br />since the osakar are the highest life form and more plant than animal are there other animate plants?
