Essari Evolution Game/Magnarovic Era

Third era of the Essari Evolution Game.

Events Timeline

Magnarovic Start

Essari at the beginning of the Magnarovic Era

Life has just beginning to make concerted recovery from the great volcanic event a few million years ago on Essari. The world has emerged into the Magnarovic Era once more as a semi-tropical sanctuary for life to flourish. While animals took some time to recover, plants immediately picked up where they left off, soaking up the sun and absorbing toxics gases from the atmosphere, while simultaneously pumping Oxygen into the atmosphere. In the arctic circles of the Essari, has begun seeing the development of ice floes and the first icebergs, which will gradually develop into the planet's ice caps.

Many recent generations of organisms have experienced a radical changes in their offspring's anatomy. In some aquatic and terrestrial organisms, a notochord has appeared, providing these organisms with a rigidity and a stronger internal bodies. These organisms will soon become the worlds first vertebrates. For aquatic organisms, some have experienced an internal change to their bodies, as the beginnings of a primitive circulatory systems for improved blood flow and/or primitive nephric ducts (protokidneys) that help gather toxins and later excrete them. Finally, in a select few organisms, there has been a recent development of nerve bundles in the cranial region of organisms. These nerve bundles have in recent generations developed into the first brain stem.

All these changes to the world come with the addition of an abundance of exposed resources that are crucial to the further advancement of life. This new era on planet Essari will finally open the floodgates for life to truly get big and complex.

Mid Magnarovic

Mid Magnarovic Essari

Essari now enters into the Mid Magnarovic Era, as life begins to diversify and regionalize around the world. More and more organisms begin to appear, with each new organisms becoming more specialized, complex, and larger than ever. For many organisms, the advent of sturdy exoskeletons, and stronger endoskeletons has opened the doors for organisms to grow and not only thrive in their ecosystems, but warp the very land around them in some cases. For others, diversification has been derived from the abundance of new minerals and resources that a great deal of organisms quickly adopted.

Region 1

The climate of this region hasn't changed much, but the lands have become more colorful and lush with life as Bloomgrass and Bristlegrass sweep over the lands. Life in all shapes and sizes has found nearly all the landmasses to comfortable areas to grow and prosper in. More recently, Brouldia and Jobani have become the target of hurricane systems that form and barrage the landmass during the wetter times of year. These storms frequently flood forests and grasslands, and wash away large swaths of life, only for organisms to immediately reclaim the briefly unoccupied land. These storms also impact the Styrax Braffberg Colony and the southern ridge of the Gemini Braffberg Colony, tearing apart younger growths of the colony, which become nutrients for the marine organisms beneath. The Shatturne Isles have been inhabited by a few hardy organisms over the years, and life isn't getting any easy with a recent increase in volcanic activity and a plunge in the isles now becoming another region impacted by snowfall and cooler weather.

Region 2

Sujardin has become a paradise for life that learned to thrive in both temperate and semi-tropical biomes. Thanks to its geographic position, the landmass experience regular and seasonal weather patterns and in turn organisms have become adapted to dealing with the seasonal weather. Here, Quad Grabrafs swing through the trees and Frondlys of Sujardin while Ground Sprouts and Whooping Tripods roam the lower canopies in their daily search for food. Marine life has exploded in this region, as various Sunderal descendants have taken to life along the coasts and among the Braffberg colonies, while Hawa and Skelper have adopted the lower niches of these new biomes. The Braffberg Colonies Pisces and Leviathan continue to slowly grow and drift along the still ocean surface, as they sift the open ocean for food. The Denui Island has slowly become its own unique environment as Geyser Broulders begin to dominate the lonely volcanic island as its top organism. These Broulders begin to gradually fill the air around this island with a thin layer of soot that makes life for complex plants and airborne organisms very difficult.

Region 3

The continent of Panoram has become a paradise for all walks of life. This is because of the consistently wet and tropical climate, and its expansive land that let's life stretch out and evolve however it chooses. Panoramian Landlord Tripods, Armored Ferocitails, and the vitriolic Cauldron Broulders are among many of the giants that roam Panoram. Even plant life has diversified here, as the old Braffious Tree and Bristlegrass have evolved to maximized their success in every environment it encounters. >>506792 >>509807 In the tropical oceans around Panoram, life has flourished as Serpentsnejks, Skelper, Hawhorns, Dolpfeesh, and many more marine organisms thrive in the expansive reefs that have built continuously onto one another over millions of years. While coral itself hasn't evolved beyond its polyp-like form, it has taken on a plethora of shapes and structures that now house much of the tropical marine organisms of the world. While Nihiloram has not experienced an explosion of life, like Panoram, life has done well here, but the geography has recently changed. The inland regions of Nihiloram have recently become filled with more and more metallic and clay substrate that has killed off most plant life and made life for animals difficult. The onset of this geographic change is unclear, and its not yet known how life will adapt to this change if at all.

Region 4

Foltania has become far more humid over recent time, with the wetlands of the Trifolt Delta creeping further inland. With this expansion of wetland in the west and swampy rainforests in the east has resulted in an influx of oxygen production over the Foltania mainland. This has caused the previously uneventful storm systems of Foltania to become supercharged and lethal, with lightning strikes have the potential to cause flash fires that engulfs several acres of forest in an instant. Life has become most diverse in the wetlands with Braffious Swamptrees now spreading over the continent from Panoram, and Foltanian Landlords roaming the swamps of the continent among the many other smaller organisms of the landmass. It is the small chain, known as the Torray Isles though where life in this region has become the most bizarre and unique. Many organisms have taken to the abundance of crystals in the island chain, evolving into strange and wonderful creatures like the Cytescale, the Brould Tree, Lantern Crystallustails, varieties of crystalline covered grasses, and many more unique oddities. Most interesting is one of the the southernmost islands in the Torray Isles, now called Onolk Island. It is here where we see the first examples of island gigantism, with examples like the Onolk Landlord,and the Onolk Island Broulder that are found exclusively on this small island.

Lands of the Magnarovic Era

Region 1

This particular region is blessed with a mediterranean and tropical climate, that keeps the area humid, but relatively pleasant year round. This region consists of the braffbergs Gemini and Styrax, the landmasses Brouldia, Jobani, Morove, Ralia, and the Shatturne Isles. Brouldia and Jobani share an expansive coral reefs that help to nurture young aqauatic organisms, and provides shelter for most marine organisms. Inland, the fields of bristlegrass and braffious trees stretch across the landmasses. It is here where deposits of Calcium, Magnesium and Iron dot the landscape. Morove is less tropical than the more equatorial landmasses, but is much wetter with a large forest covering half the landmass. Here, life has found the cooler climate to be manageable enough to adapt to. Ralia is a cragged landscape, with only expanses of grasslands throughout the landmass and a kelp forest surrounding its coast. This region's cooler temperatures are accompanied by deposits of salt, copper, and iron ore that jut out from the surface.

Region 2

Region two is home to the largest braffberg colonies, the landmass Sujardin, and the volcanic island known as Denui. These two braffberg colonies have moved southward along the Southern Tropic line, which is considered to be the optimal place for the growth and sustaining the sessile colonies, and the organisms that rely on it. These braffbergs have become so large now that they even have their own localized weather systems. Sujardin is a predominantly temperate climate and is the only landmass that experiences earth-like seasons year-round, including the first instances of snowfall. This region has a mixing of resources deposits including, iron, calcium, zinc, magnesium, and sulfur, and has its own kelp forests and coral reefs that also have deposits of magnesium, iron, and calcium among them. Then there's the island of Denui, an active volcanic island that has only recent become hospitable in its northern region for life. In spite of this only grasses have begun growing on the island because of a mysterious tar-like substance that may potentially be useful to an organism. This tar-like substance is also found in the southern crags of Sujardin.

Region 3

Region 3 is home to Essari's largest landmass now known as Panoram and the northern Nihiloram Islands. This region has a predominantly wet tropical climate that has large swathes of land that have yet to be populated by inland organisms. While Panoram is not abundant with unique resources with only a few deposits of sulfur and calcium, the landmass is fertile and brimming with lush wetlands, forests, and grasslands, as well as multiple rivers and lakes. Likewise, the warm tropical waters around the great landmass is a comfortable home for any organisms big or small. Panoram also features some of the first expanses of mountains, a geographic marker only seen on this continent and the continent of Foltania. In the Northwest, the islands of Nihiloram is the only temperate climate found in Region 3. In spite of this, the wet climate of the region leaves much of the land with vast fields of Bristlegrass, and vibrant kelp forests around the coast.

Region 4

Region 4 has a mix of the wet and dry tropical climate throughout the region, and is home to the continent Foltania, and the Torray Isles. In Foltania, its one defining feature is the beautiful Trifolt Delta, a massive expanse of wetland that stretches across most of western Foltania. This wet climate expands to the forests found near the coasts of Foltania, and a small wetland in the northwestern part of the continent. Torwards the center though, the climate becomes drier due to its young mountain range, leaving Foltania with large swathes of dry plains with hardy grasses that have begun to adapt to the hot climate. In the seas around Foltania, many marine organisms that reside in reefs are fortunate to be protected from the fury of the Essari's oceanborn storms and are able to flourish because of this. On both land and sea, organisms will find deposits of Calcium, Iron, Copper, and Zinc. The Torray Islands are relatively new to terrestrial life, and have predominantly hosted life around its shores that are warmed by hydrothermal vents near the islands, and warm ocean current that passes adjacent to it. It's kelp forests and coral reefs have nurtured life old and new, and are abundant with Calcium, Iron, and Magnesium deposits. On land, the forests that have begun appearing, have unearthed a strange resource that was left untouched for a long time: Crystals. These crystals scattered across the Torray Islands have been recently found to be nurturing the plant life on the island, increasing their overall productivity. Who knows what effect it'll have on an animal.
