Status: Development will be delayed. Unfortunately, real life calls, so the mod is a lower priority for the rest of 2025. The discord and ko-fi are being closed as well. The next update, v1.1.1, will add a lot of properly modded content on top of a doubling the total origin count, so hopefully the wait will be worth it. A preview beta for the update might be released in the summer as a sneak-peek. Until then, thanks for the support.
Playing the mod in singleplayer will be less enjoyable/more difficult, as it was designed with PvP or roleplay servers in mind.
This mod adds many origins with an insectoid hivemind theme. Think ants, xenomorphs or tyranids. They all have a crippling weakness to fire, inability to regenerate health through food, permanent and severe hunger and an inability to use items, wear armor or interact with blocks. But on the other hand, they are physically superior to an human in every way. They can also climb on walls and ceilings.

=Scout: A fast specialist in distraction and harassment.

=Sentry: A decently mobile tank capable of healing independently.
=Specter: A stealth specialist with decent enough damage to be useful.
=Spitter: A ranged specialist that can rain down fire while dodging retaliation.
=Support: A medic, mostly incapable of combat but essential in keeping it's allies alive.
There are another 7 Tier 2 and 2 Tier 3 origins which you can evolve into after some time . Each origin has 3 active abilities and 1 or 2 passives. Evolving takes 15 minutes, and you can see your progress by holding shift. You can also change between each caste in your current Tier every 10 minutes and downgrade to the previous Tier too.
Variants can change a lot how you play the game or a specific origin, even removing some of their weakpoints.
