Nazrek: Order of the Progenitors

———————————————————————–

I continue to be fascinated by these feral humanoid organisms, so much so that I have decided to genetically modify the aggressive tendencies and intellectual capacity of their alpha male. I assume that this trait will be passed down to future generations, making this group significantly more dangerous to anyone who might happen upon them. I know the Watchers will not approve, but the possibility of unexpected violence tends to make me reckless.

Aviel: Order of the Weavers

———————————————————————–

The black volcanic stone in this region is naturally infused with high levels of primal earth and life, resulting in the formation of these elemental creatures. I have decided to install a number of primal focusers in this particular location, assuming that it will result in the creation of a larger and more destructive specimen. Perhaps I will unleash it on the Maker’s new augmentation facility to the east.

———————————————————————–

Without any true natural predators, these insects are beginning to spread rapidly throughout this region, and their massive hives serve as a magnificent example of their industriousness and social coordination. Their queens are equally impressive. I have witnessed more than one creature fall victim to their venomous sting.

Koral: Order of the Shapers

———————————————————————–

These crystals contain almost pure concentrations of primal life – an interesting anomaly that resulted from the first phase of the Project. Given sufficient inherent knowledge and skill, an individual could use these crystals to transform this environment – similar to the technological process employed by our terraformers. Of course, there are currently no such individuals on Nexus beyond ourselves.

In the most southern part of the Blackheart Hollow cave, just behind the quest objective mob Kaarg the Divine. Entrance to Blackhear Hollow is North from datacube map marked location. There is a Blackheart Hollow TALES: Rise of the Vindicator zone lore collectible at the start of this cave. Its location is marked on map.

———————————————————————–

The spread of Ohmna’s little Skeech across the planet is generally infuriating, but I must admit that their latest… evolution… has me intrigued. It seems their shamans have developed the ability to evoke explosive plasmic mutations, using the ground-up bones of sacrificial victims. Now that is the kind of pet that I could appreciate!

The Makers continued efforts to perfect this augmentation technology is disturbing. As if their tiny machines could possibly be an improvement on focused biological design. Perhaps they should visit the OS-1 city to the south. Could their cybernetic monstrosities ever construct such an impressive monument?

Zarkonis: Order of the Makers

———————————————————————–

It appears that my recent modifications to the omni-plasmic nanites have not been well-received. I amplified aggression protocols, resulting in an exponential increase in hostile behavior. Personally, I feel as if this was an improvement, but the Archon was not amused when one of the augmented test subjects attacked him. Short-sighted buffoon! He has ordered the facility to be sealed indefinitely.
