Space Oddities, also known as Monsters, are rare events that happen from time to time. They may be strange space monsters out for a snack, or just some natural phenomenon. Naturally, there can only be one active at any point in time, but ignored if the Oddity is spawned using Sandbox Mode or by accepting some quest gift.

Strangefish[]

A creature that grows tentacles and wanders the universe. Similar to a Cecaelian Abomination. It used to be unspawnable and very rare in past updates.


Santa[]

Creature that can only survive in the let it snow setting. Does nothing except bringing joy.


Dubbelring[]

A stringed together pair of circles that wander aimlessly around the galaxy. Each ball grows 3 tentacles, and when the Dubbelring is hit they create pink spots on their back.


Meteor Storm[]

A storm of meteors that destroy civilization in stars they impact. Can be shot down easily with any weapon. Can start in any cardinal direction, but once chosen all subsequent missiles of that sequence will come from the same direction.


Nox Miles Overlord[]

Very red and very evil ship that keeps certain part of the galaxy in chaos and neutrality. Shoots white missiles at the closest inhabited star. Followed by the swarm of Underlings. Shoots a fan of gray missiles at hostile ships.


Shoggoth[]

A creature that slowly and aimlessly traverses the galaxy. It is made up of multiple main body parts and some "nodes". Shoggoth raids stars like the ship type and shoots one gray laser per node. They also raid artifacts. Random start point on any star, except on hollow disc galaxies, in which it seems to start in the middle. They spawn cultists that protect the shoggoth if they pass over empires with the CULT special.



Hunter[]

A neutral ship that hunts down all monsters. Ignores star lanes and leaves the galaxy once all creatures are killed. Always starts in the middle. Fires like a Frigate, although it does 5x as much damage.



Elder Thing[]

Flying squid things. They are made up of the main body and two tentacles. They are very similar to carriers in that they carry Swarmlings. When flying headlong at a small or average sized ship (at least some oddities included like dragons and shoggoth nodes) tentacles have a solid chance to destroy the object hit. Always starts at a random place at the edge of the map.


Dragon[]

A snake-like organism. Starts as just a head, but periodically gains a body section until it hits the maximum of 8. The head has an AOE based missile that can destroy both stars and ships. Each segment has a kinetic missile with light damage. Spawns randomly on the rim of the galaxy. Two dragons with the same name wont attack each other. Splitting a Dragon in half will create a new Dragon from the severed section, dragons turn darker after splitting ten times and cannot split again after that.


Eater of Stars[]

Some kind of god jellyfish. It is completely invincible and it doesn't attack. They float around the galaxy marking 5 stars, and when they are done those stars, and some stars around them (much larger AOE than meteor), blow up. Always starts in the middle.

(The blurbs for Eaters of Stars can be easily modified by editing Assets/Data/eaterblurbs.txt in the game files.)


Puppet Mistress[]

A small hostile ship that flies towards ships and attaches to them. The ship will turn neutral until the puppet mistress leaves control of the ship. Now it controls this ship and the ship will periodically take 0.2 damage and on death Puppet Mistress leaves unscathed in search of another ship. Might generate another puppet mistress after destroying a ship.


Seeper of Sloth[]

Green cloud object that consists of rotating plates. Kinda floats around, usually in a curved pattern up or down. Any star it touches, the owner empire (except neutral) start degenerating. Always starts on the right middle side.


Cecaelian Abomination[]

A kraken-like monster with eight tentacles hulled in some kind of smoke which shoots an projectile (same AOE as a meteor) it Is one of the most powerful monsters it can take out an whole fleet of hunters and used to be even stronger before the tentacle nerf. always starts at an random place by edge of map.



Yggdrasil[]

A tree like organism floating around the galaxy, occasionally entering the galaxy as well. Absolutely peaceful.


Anneverworm[]

A dragon/worm-like creature that will spew missiles at stars, while also gaining tentacles behind it. it has a complex reproduction system - when attacked, will create Anneverworm eggs, which will grow into larvae, then a chrysalis, and then the Anneverworm. they will become infertile after twenty millenia with their head getting darker, to prevent filling the galaxy with themselves.


Glubben[]

A harmless bug-like creature. That starts out with only the purple stick like structure with red dots and some weird dark orange thing next to it, but will quickly grow light green tentacles and some weird red and yellow flower thing on it's front side.


Kabandha[]

A egg shaped organism that grows 4 tentacles and has an AOE weapon, this is the space oddity in the dealing of direct damage for it can 1 shot interceptors no matter how much HP they have



Quiescer[]

A pillar of saw-like objects that destroy everything in the galaxy except ships. Comes from welcoming the Gift of Calm. Can be survived with immense luck. Use multiple quiescers to prevent empires surviving inevitable doom, It had a different sprite in the older versions which looked like a shuriken.


Wyvern[]

A upgraded dragon creature that grows rapidly with 1.0 hp per head/node. Can spew at stars and shoot missiles at ships.


Smatter Piece[]

A white creature that will land on a chosen star and spawn more Smatter Pieces while also spawning Smatter Drones that will move like trade ships to other stars destroying what is there. Spawned Smatters will never attack their Mother Smatter, and no Smatters will attack the first smatter. 5th generation smatters (Apogee Smatter Pieces) will be red. they will not land on a star, and eventually will leave the galaxy.


Marauder[]

A neutral ship/oddity that will shoot at other non neutral stars. It also attacks anything that is comes across. Very hostile and fast. Its goal is to destroy as much as possible.



Loveling[]

A smatter piece on steroids, this thing rapidly replicates and takes over non-neutral stars. Weaker than smatter pieces. After a number of replications, it will cease to replicate and orbit the star that it was last at. Cannot take over stars it has taken previously.


Plague[]

Plagues infect stars and randomly fires spores that can infect other stars and ships. They can spread a lot and take over the galaxy. Most of the time an empire will attack but it can also just leave it be giving the plague more time to expand that is mostly only done with the sandbox more war/peace tab.


Galaxy Man[]

A yellow Pacman-shaped neutral ship that shoots at non-neutral stars. Always starts on the bottom left side.
