GRAVEYARD

TYPE-H // TYPE-N // TYPE-T // STRAIN PLANTS // DECONFIRMED LEGACY FILES

Strains are the clearest monster layer of the lore: modified animals, humans, and plants with anomalous quirks. This page also separates current EVRIMA-friendly concepts from the legacy graveyard.

HUB Lore Hub Central index for every lore file. AE-01 Apollo Engineering Corporate structure, clearance, projects, and rival factions. AE-02 Sites & Facilities Gateway, Tartarus, G.U.T.S., Archive 7, and surface facilities. AE-03 Incident Files Recovered reports, file recoveries, transcript traces, and media records. AE-04 Assets & Entities Generation projects, named SYNTHs, wild-born assets, and human archetypes. AE-05 Strains & Graveyard Strain classifications, strain plants, botany, and deconfirmed concepts. AE-06 Lore Timeline Reconstructed chronology from early Apollo activity to archive recovery.
STRAIN CLASSIFICATIONTHREAT BIOLOGY
TYPE-HHYPERENDOCRIN

Significantly larger, stronger, armored, and more dangerous than normal. The tradeoff is a violently increased metabolism that leads to starvation risk.

Examples / themes: Colossus, size horror, armored apex pressure.
TYPE-NNEUROTENIC

Associated with electromagnetic or neural weirdness. Legacy material links Neurotenics to expelled biomaterials, NHJ, mimicry, and the Echidna / Neurotenic Mastermind.

Examples / themes: voice replication, luring, interference, cannibal association.
TYPE-TTISSOPLASTIC

Regenerative strain type able to recover damaged or lost limbs. This creates the body-horror side of the archive, including Reapers and Matriarch-related ideas.

Examples / themes: Reaper, regeneration, biomass, body repair.
STRAIN PLANTSBOTANY GOES WRONG
METALLIVORE

METAL-EATING VINE

A metallic vine that consumes and grows over metal while maintaining the shape of what it overtakes, similar to strangler fig behavior.

MENDYS

CARNIVOROUS IVY-LIKE PLANT

Uses clawlike thorns at stem nodes to capture prey. Its flowers change color before it strikes, possibly using mimicry to lower suspicion.

RAZORBARK

LIVING BARBED WIRE

A thorn-heavy plant with little or no leaves, able to attach to surfaces using small graspers and form hazardous growths.

ARBORBURST

ARMORED GROWTH BURST

A tree or parasitic plant concept with burst periods of extreme growth and armored bark variations. Both ArborBurst and ArbourBurst spellings appear.

BOTANY / VIRUS THREADAE ROOT SYSTEM
KT
Apollan Ktisis

A designation for AE-created plants. Ktisis means founding or creation in Greek, matching Apollo's godlike design language.

TRI
Apollan Ktisis-Trifolium

Genetically engineered clover. Trifolium is common, valuable for grazing and bees, and nitrogen-affixing, which may relate to strain biology.

CAS
Cashews / Oranges

The Diabloceratops recovery file includes nutrient analysis of cashews and oranges and reveals CRISPR/Cas9 usage.

VIR
The Virus

A fragment tied to agricultural applications. The document includes a dev quote suggesting agricultural uses of the virus were invented.
