Gonna go with that picture and they will be Omnivore's who are fiercely territorial and if desperate they would migrate and prey on any they can. Doesn't mean I'm gonna go all badass on everyone with a war march or anything. :p

I plan on sticking in one area or a general area on the map so that should work out great. Build up Civilization then maybe go to war over resources later on.

I'm pretty much gonna be isolationist, with a few territorial expansions here and there. I won't attack people until they attack me, or if I decide that another creature's territory is more useful than other territories near me.

Species Name: Varex Sapiens
Diet: Omnivore
Population: Around 300,000
Body Type:
Image


Living Area: Can adapt to survive in most environments however they prefer the jungle or environments rich with life for easy game or easy pickings.

Basic Biological History: Varax Sapiens are intelligent humanoid creatures that have the ability to adapt and survive in most if not all land environments however they prefer Jungles or areas that are rich in animal and plant life. At one point in time they migrated throughout the Continent to find suitable areas to inhabit, these migrations have died down as the Varex have grown fond of jungles. Small and large groups of the Varx are dominated by Alpha Males and/or Matriarchs. Very protective of their young and even more protective of their territory, the Verax are quick to use violence to defend their territory against other groups. Feeding upon plant and animal life has allowed the Verax to prosper as their numbers have been on the rise over the years.

I stated they were carnivores. They eat snakes, wyrms, monkeys, and goblins. Every year the adults migrate to the deserts and plains beyond the jungle to lay eggs, which then hatch into sprinters that live where they're laid for ten years, until they're twenty feet; then; they return to the jungle.

You reversed my question, Pret :P

I asked if the Ver!tch were eating the Scythid. I already know Scythids are carnivores.

Yeah, but as you said earlier, each post covers something like 700 years, so I can't exactly have us run into each other in the same place/same circumstances. I did set the stage for some conflict though, since the Ver!tch are starting to overstretch the forests and riverbanks they began from.

And yes, yes they are.

Omnivores, actually, but primarily herbivores. Think of them as vegetarians---they don't really like meat, but if they're hungry and need energy, they'll go for it.

The general impression I'm trying to get from the Ver!tch is a ravenous swarm that consumes everything in the way, only checked by massive predation and overpopulation, which will force them to cooperate for resources, setting the stage for the next cultural evolution.
