![]() ![]() I like the Mountains/Bulb Zone entrance because it's safe for the Cyclops, (which I highly recommend for trips to the LR and deeper, as it is basically a mobile base which you can put growbeds and storage in, as well as docking a Prawn Suit or a Seamoth.) You can find this entrance directly north if lifepod 12, if you have the signal. Single specimen captured for study at purpose-built containment facility, constructed in volcanic region at depth 1.4km.Īssessment: While it is unlikely that the emperor specimen is still contained within the facility described, it may be possible to acquire further data there on the aliens' attempts to develop a vaccine.To (almost) fully explore the Lost River, you need a MK3 seamith depth module, a MK1 Cyclops depth module. Bone samples from emperor specimens indicate some potential for kharaa immunity. This leviathan species has been assigned designator 'Sea Emperor'. Shows some potential for immunity to infection, but physical remains so far proved insufficient for full reconstruction. Off-site lab established to study remains. Small sample of eggs has been retained for continued, high priority research on leviathan hatching mechanisms. Embryos show no signs of immunity - death commonly occurs within 3 weeks. Egg specimens acquired from nesting site. Shows some capacity to transmit enzymes to other specimens.Īdult specimen too large to study in containment. Shows symptom remission on exposure to Enzyme 42, but symptoms quickly recur. ![]() ![]() Shows no immunity to infection - death commonly occurs within 4 days. This entry seems to reference the common peeper. A number of entries have been translated. Judging by the size and placement of those holes, the antenna were most likely thinner and longer.Ī catalog of information on the organisms previously contained within the alien facility. It also has two small holes above its primary eyes, indicating that it may have had two antenna on its head like those found on its more agile relatives. Whilst Theta's lineage appears to have split early in the development of the double eye sockets, retaining a primitive second pair of eyes.Ī solid external shell, as well as an internal skeleton, is commonplace amongst this group, with the Sand Shark, Boneshark, Theta, and presumably the Rockgrub all exhibiting this adaptation, showing a preference for defensive capability over maneuverability in all species aside from the Biter and Blighter, which appear to have lost the external shell over time in favor of greater agility. It can also be noted that the Boneshark lacks double eye sockets as well as any indication of their prior existence, meaning that the Boneshark must have diverged sooner than the others. The secondary eyes appear considerably smaller and less developed than those found on the Sand Shark and Biter, which are indistinguishable from the front set of eyes in size and appearance. ![]() It is possible that these forearms were a large pair of flippers, like those of a sea turtle, which helped propel itself through the water. Although, the fact that they face backward rather than forwards would have made them impossible to use as graspers like the Sea Dragon Leviathan. The arms appear similar to a whale fin in shape and size, though since the PDA states they were forearms it is likely they were indeed arms with webbed hands on the end rather than fins. It also has five-digit hands rather than the Sea Dragon's four-digit hands. The structure of the arms also differs greatly between them whilst the Sea Dragon's - and presumably the Sea Emperor's - arms follow a more familiar structure with a ball and socket joint at the elbow, one upper bone the humerus, and two lower bones the radius and ulna, Theta's arms are unique, with the humerus' equivalent made from two fused bones of equal size running parallel to each other, and rather than the ball and socket joint seen in the elbow of the Sea Dragon, it has a gliding joint composed of carpal bones. The forearms are unique amongst its relatives and seem to have evolved independently as there is very little chance of relation to the Sea Emperor and Sea Dragon group due to major skeletal differences. ![]()
