Oozlings

The lore

Welcome to The Ooze Pits

Far past the last mapped star lies a planet with no name, only a smell. Its whole crust is one swamp, pocked with thousands of craters, and every crater glows with a puddle of living goo.

The goo churns for years, warmed by something deep under the crust. Then one night a crater swells, bubbles, burps, and pushes out a little shape covered in slime. That's an Oozling. Each one carries a bit of its puddle forever: the color of its sky, the junk it found at the bottom, the tiny critter that crawled out alongside it.

Nobody has found the bottom of the Pits. The Oozlings won't say.

Every Oozling's background is the corner of the planet it crawled out of.

Classic vs Mutated

Every Oozling crawls out either Classic or Mutated. Mutated ones soaked too long in the radioactive drizzle that falls over the Pits. Same species, stranger glow.

More lore is coming. Species stories and planet history will be added here as they're written. Nothing on this page is made up for filler: it's the same lore that's been on the site and the planet.
