Let’s keep things simple two rules.
- No giving sentience, This is a no brainer issue.
- Let’s keep it to beings under the Animilia kingdom. “mutated virus/bacteria” is a common trope.
To start:
Let’s modify ants to have lungs.
Most insects are constrained by the amount of oxygen they can acquire through their exoskeleton.
Imagine how big they can get if they didn’t have that constraint?
Octopodes no longer die when they give birth, meaning they can teach their young and form societies.
But they are not social creatures, so if they were, even when they died someone in the social group could still teach the youngs
Children of Ruin is a great book.
WAIT THEY DIE ON BIRTH!??
WTF this actually needs to be fixed.
