Post: RE: Updates to Old Clade Terminology
| Now that I think about it “human and xeno” literally just means “baseline” if they’re in the biont category. I now officially see no reason there has to be a distinction. Human is a subclade of baseli... |

Thread: Updates to Old Clade Terminology
Post: RE: Updates to Old Clade Terminology
| Baseline originally was meant to include humans and xenosophonts. I’m okay with making it a modifier and I suppose xeno could be a modifier as well…? My biggest reason for making baseline be a major c... |

Thread: Updates to Old Clade Terminology
Post: RE: Updates to Old Clade Terminology

Biont:
1) Baseline
2) Provolve
3) Neogen
Synthetic:
1) Aioid
2) Alife
3) Exotic ... |
