Mydhilde Saturday Featurette: Advanced Weck Biology
By William J. Goodwater II
Hello, Nick informed me that he has nothing planned for this update. figured now would be the best time for me to tell you the chemical workings of the Weck’s Biology.
Weck’s were first created by the Druidic race during the early life of the world of Mydhilde, even before Humans. The Druids wanted a creature that could manipulate the elements and evolve quickly to make sure the world keeps a balance. To allow a Natural creature to perform such feats they needed to change the way Elements and even particles behaved.
They formed particles that were in tune with the magic of the world, this would later be known as Mutron (Magic Electrons). these Mutrons acted like Electrons in many the same ways Except for two interesting properties:
1. To an Electron, a Mutron is invisible and does not interact with Elections.
2. The body that contains Mutrons can channel the energy into the environment around them (like a powerful static discharge but with elemental effects.)
This Mutrons would end up forming to make a new Element; Carmium (Carbon Helium)
Carmium (car-me-um) Has the basic structure of Helium but the binding forces that are exactly like Carbon, allowing for a whole lifeform to be produced under a new element. following similar structures like carbon based life.
But the Mutrons had one fatal problem. Since they are synthetic particles, they suffer from decay. To remedy this, the Weck needs to consume Estrogen (or even Testosterone in some cases). the Estrogen gets surrounded by a mass of the Wecks Mutrons to create new Mutrons. Ergo a large Supply of Estrogen creates stronger, longer living Wecks and supports for Weck procreation.
This leaves us with our final part. If a Weck spends too much of their Mutrons (by the overuse of magic spells.) This will leave them with too few Mutrons to support Estrogen Fission. this will convert Carmium atoms into regular Helium atoms.
Death is Instant for them.
