Hey, I've been thinking about my silly "worldeaters" idea, and thought it might actually be a refreshing change to the SARP. I mean, the Mishhu story has been going on for four years - this might be a fun twist!
So it's like this...
The "worldeaters" are bug-like creatures of varying proportions and shapes, some look more like spiders, some like odd mixtures between ants and flies, and so on. They are not controlled by any hive mind, though they have a "queen" persay. This "queen" simply reproduces with the workers, who die afterward. There are many worldeater queens, one for each worldeater 'mound' (essentially a stronghold). On to the workers... The workers produce a substance called Niosilum, which is an incredibly potent acid capable of burning through most metallic substances (excluding zesuaim, yamataium, etc.) which is also able to be burned as fuel.
Niosilum is consumed by the warriors, which in turn are able to spit it out at their enemies to burn them to death. The worldeaters eat flesh and meat, and are therefore a very combative race, hence the name. They are able to travel through space by fitting into a pressurized air-socket which rest along the sides of a worldeater overlord. This overlord is an enormous creature that spews consumed Niosilum out as flames behind it in order to propel itself at high-speed through space. Generally, about 5,000,000 Kilos of Niosilum is used to travel 1 LY while moving at FTL speed. On that note, worldeater-controlled planets tend to produce around 15,000,000 kilos of Niosilum every standard Yamatai day. Niosilum is also used as a sort of biological weapon in space. It is spewed out at incredibly high speed while burning, essentially turning it into a bolt of plasma. (This needs help: can't figure out how to move the plasma at over 1c.)
There are also worldeater "underlords", which are enormous creatures often around half the size of a planet, that burrow into the crust of a planet and wrap themselves around it in order to extract raw nutrients and materials.
Worldeaters have natural carapace ranging is hardness and thickness from anywhere between two cm composite titanium to six cm of Zesuaium.
(So how is it so far? Sound cool?!)
Edit: Not asking to change the plot, this is a suggestion for when Wes is done with the Mishhuvurthyar for good =P (which could be never)
