The "Triumph of Spring" is the name given to the fifth part of the Fortune: Evolution Game. It is set after the end of the Ice Age that comprised parts 3 & 4. The name was first used here on 1d4chan, and was discovered by the players in the midst of Discussion Thread 2. Triumph of Spring introduced a new map, with a variety of environments and a reworked continent (shifted by continental drift etc.). It also introduced a new landmass, called Volcano Island, formed as a result of the massive eruption that led to the end of the Ice Age.

This article/entry is for additional details and fluff concerning the starting organisms available at the very start of the thread, along with behind the scenes information about the creation and development of the species by FortuneHost and the players.

Aquabeast

The Aquabeast is a carnivorous aquatic repto-mammal that lives in cold saltwater habitats, usually inhabiting the mid-range to deep ocean depths. It makes its home in the Continental Shelf and the North Sea Regions.

The Aquabeast is about the size of a whale shark, roaming the mid to near-surface depths of the ocean. While most of its body is covered in dense bony armor, its underbelly is adorned with slick blue hairs, stuck close together, similar to a penguin's feathers. Being such a large beast, this creature's digestive system is wonderfully efficient, even the bones of prey are digested. The calcium present in these goes to the upkeep/growth of the Aquabeast's impressive armor (which, is actually a modified second skeleton). While the Aquabeast is only moderately fast, it does have the advantage of a long tongue, one that can extend it body length away. In this regard, the Aquabeast has changed little from its Spineback predecessor, it remains an ambush predator, relying on a single decisive strike to grab prey before it has a chance to react.
