… Super, mega, ultra neat! Though, evolution? What's that?
[When a creature reaches their level cap, they may evolve to a higher species.]
[You may evolve into different species depending on your abilities.]
Neat! First comes first though. The rat shifts its focus to spending its stat points. It has received many more stat points than its last level ups, but chooses to ignore that and instead spend them. Based off of that last, the rat decides to invest 6 points in Con. This will make the rat tougher and will give it higher stamina. It then puts 3 points in Int and 2 in Wis; this will enhance the magical abilities of the rat. Then it put 3 in luck, 1 in agility, and 2 in strength. Satisfied with its stats it looks at its skills. What does MAX mean?
[A skill which is at the MAX level can now evolve into a new skill. They can also be fused with other skills to make new skills.]
The rat sees this the same as species evolution. You reach the peak and are given a new peak. In that case the rat would like to see what it can do with [Shadow Strength].
[Shadow Strength evolution routes: Shadow Commander, Shadow Movement, Shadow Enhancement]
[Shadow Commander]
[You can control the shadows to do your bidding. You get a small enhancement while in the shadows. A long range version of Shadow Strength]
[Shadow Movement]
[You can move in between the shadows as you please. You get a significant boost in speed while in the shadows. A speed based version of Shadow Strength.]
[Shadow Enhancement]
[You can wrap yourself in shadows. This improves all your capabilities and provides additional stealth. A base evolution of Shadow Strength.]
Which is better? Speed, a plain upgrade, or distant attacks?
[Shadow Strength has evolved into Shadow Enhancement.]
The rat continued going about evolving its skills. They have all evolved as follows:
[Body Strengthening has evolved into Focused Muscle Strengthening.]
[Focused Muscle Strengthening]
[Focuses all the skills energy into strengthening the user's muscles]
[Scratch has evolved into Distant Claw]
[Distant Claw]
[Keeps the original strengths of Scratch and if chosen, can spend 1 St to fire an aura claw and scratch up to a meter away.]
[Bite has evolved into Crush]
[Crush]
[Crush strengthens the jaw muscles and hardens the mouth.]
[Vital Check has evolved into Body Scan]
[Body Scan]
[Can understand the averages and weaknesses of a species at a glance. Can understand the full capabilities of an individual if encountered before]
[Stealth has evolved into Presence Erase]
[Presence Erase]
[Erases the presence of the user, and consumes up to 1 St per skill used which would normally obtain the attention of a target while hidden.]
[Pinpoint Precision]
[Your perception has increased greatly and you can zoom in with your vision. Your accuracy has been raised and you can handle distant attacks with greater ease.]
… These sound great! Now it's time to focus on evolution… How can I see the evolution routes?
[Evolution routes]
[Rubber Rat]
[This species of rat has a large round body with rubber skin and plenty of fat. They have blunt damage resistant fur and wind magic. They attack by moving at high speeds and bouncing off walls. They have powerful back legs.]
[Shadow Rat]
[This species of rat has dark shadow magic resistant fur. They are slim and have weak bodies, but can use shadow magic. They're bites deal necrosis damage. Surprisingly fast]
[Magic Rat]
[This species of rat can naturally use and master magic. They have weak bodies, but gain 4 types of magic on evolution]
[Cleaner Rat]
[This species of rat has silver fur and is loved by humans. Wherever they go, they disinfect the area around them, and deal extra damage to unclean foes.]
[Bullet Rat]
[This species is similar to the Rubber Rat, as they attack with speed and can use wind magic. They differ, where the Bullet Rat is much faster and launches in a straight line.
[Hated Rat]
[This species of rat is hated by all creatures and has access to the Evil Eye skills.]
[Strong Rat]
[This species of rat is strong and muscular, they solve their issues with brute force.]
[Humanoid Rat]
[This species of rat is considered a Demi-Human. They have a human shape with ears, a tail, ears, a nose, and fur of a rat. They are half the height of their human counterparts and can communicate as both a rat and a human. They have intelligence equal to humans.]
[Royal Rat]
[Royal Rats are unique individuals amongst rats. They can command them as they please. Highly intelligent. Can't command Humanoid Rats.]
[Alert: due to unique skill, accomplishments, and mana core a unique species option exists.]
[Dark Rat]
[This is a new species of rat. They implement shadows into their fur giving them a dark appearance; doing this they improve their capabilities. They are strong and can command ordinary rats. They are highly intelligent beings with surprising strength and speed. They can be mistaken with Shadow Rats.]
…
[You are evolving into a Dark Rat.]
Suddenly the rat is feeling faint and tired; they do their best to get back into their burrow. They stumble inside and collapse as they feel the energy being drained from them. They then pass out from a lack of energy.
