===Stingers=== [[File:Stinger_00.png|200px|thumb|left|Adult-form Stinger]] The '''Stinger''' is a strange, jellyfish-like creature common to all ocean regions, and is common from deep to sea-floor depths. Stingers are entirely dependent on the '''Ravesharks''' for the propagation of their species. At the beginning of their life-cycle, they float in the sea covered in a tough shell as fertilized eggs, only hatching once ingested by a Ravedragon. Once hatched into voracious little ''medusae'', they feed greedily on the Ravedragon's intestinal tract as well as any partially-digested food they can find within, all the while constantly spewing gametes behind them. This results in a spray of fertilized eggs and Stingers the next time the Raveshark defecates. Being ejected in this manner marks the end of the Stinger's medusae phase. Now free-floating in the ocean, the Stingers balloon up into large filter-feeding free-floating jellyfish. Unlike other species, Stingers actually ''lose'' the ability to reproduce as they age (rather than gaining the ability with maturation) They do not mate again, living a pointless existence until eaten by some other animal. Stingers, as evinced by some similarities in their life-cycle (the presence of a parasitic medusae phase as well as the need to be eaten by a Raveshark) are actually close relatives of the '''Rock Slugs''', having split off from their "parent's" genus near the end of the Ice Age. Another trait shared with its cousin is the segment of poisonous individuals within the larger species. If ingested by the specific species of Raveshark called '''Ravedragons''', the medusae will steal some of the creature's toxin cells "on the way out" granting the adult-form stinging tentacles of its own.
