Editing Guide to races (section)

=={{anchor|Jelly and Slime Mutants}}Jelly and Slime Mutants==

These races are created in Xenobiology by ingesting mutation toxin. <br>
Further ingestion has a chance to mutate a slimeperson into a Stargazer or Luminescent.

The proto-jelly race. Its subspecies all share the following traits:

'''Benefits'''
* Anything that would deal toxin damage (for example, Plasma) will heal toxin damage instead.
* Slimes will never attack them.
* Able to speak the slime language.
* Has slime jelly instead of blood, which is toxin if ingested by others.
* Take half burn damage from any source.
* Can grow limbs back using their slime jelly "blood".
* Has slime lungs, "vacuole", which will regenerate blood (jelly) volume when breathing plasma. Still needs oxygen though. 

'''Drawbacks'''
* Lose limbs when "blood" volume goes too low, restoring some of it.
* Take toxin damage from chemicals that would normally cure it. This also drains large amounts of blood.
* Nonhuman to the AI.
* Take triple damage from cold.

'''Where to find them:'''
* [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Green_Slime|Xenobiology]]. Also botany, if lucky with [[Guide_to_hydroponics#Strange_seeds|strange seeds]]. 

==={{anchor|Slimepeople}}Slimepeople===
[[File:slimepeople.png]]

Pretty much humans turned into slime.<br>
Like slimes, they can split into multiple bodies, while retaining the same mind.

====Powers====
* Can split themselves to create spare bodies.
** To split they need to acquire slime jelly; they generate it either by being well fed or by taking toxin damage (which also heals them). Toxin healing chemicals will remove blood at a fast rate.
** Reaching 1100 jelly volume will let them split once, and reset them to 600.
** They can swap between bodies at will; dying in their current body will send them to another body if they have one.

'''Gameplay'''

Be the specialest snowflake in xenobiology. Hang out with your <s>only</s> slime friends. Swap between bodies. Inject people with your poisonous blood. 

'''Where to find them:'''
* [[Xenobiology]].

===Stargazers===

Stargazers are the telepathic branch of jellypeople, able to project psychic messages and to link minds with participants.

====Powers====
* Can privately and anonymously "send thoughts" to any target they see.
* Can form slimelinks with any living being.
** To form a slimelink, they must aggressively grab their target, then use the Link Minds ability.
** Everyone in the slimelink will be able to communicate in it and hear each other.
** Slimelink communication also works while unconscious or muted.
** Slimelinks are broken by death; killing the Stargazer supporting it, or changing its species will unlink everyone.

'''Where to find them:'''
* [[Xenobiology]].

==={{anchor|Luminescents}}Luminescents===
[[File:Brokenbottle.png]]

Luminescents are versatile; they gain powers by consuming cores and activating them with their peculiar biology.

'''Benefits'''
* Emit a faint glow.

====Powers====
* Can absorb slime cores to gain special abilities. (You can find the various effects [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Formulas|here]])
** Each core has a minor and a major ability.
** Activating them has a cooldown instead of using up the core. Cores can be ejected and reused.
** You can only have one core absorbed at once.

'''Where to find them:'''
* One of the possible mutations from [[Guide_to_chemistry#Slime_Mutation_Toxin|slime mutation toxin]], made with [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Green_Slime|green slime]] extracts.
