Umm. No. Basis means the base. There is no support for your creature atm. All we have atm is a ball of mercuary, retaine (rock) and crystal grass. The soil isn't fully observed yet and you need to be SO much more creative. What would you think if you were discussing a planet, what it's made of and then someone just says "There are giant birds which fly about 200ft in the air eating bugs and grass." What bugs? There are no bugs! What's the name of this bird? There isn't even air yet! So please next time, how about helping with what everyone else is doing rather than throwing random ideas in that aren't going to help.

Okay
So like
When I'm making fantasy worlds I generally just throw stuff onto a sheet of paper when I think of it then make the world function after I have some basics

And like, air is pretty much implied in a setting where things need to live. ALSO, you are strictly making everything based on Earth minerals. What's to say there isn't made up minerals with special properties? As far as I can tell, this will end up like a version of Earth with slight differences because you guys refuse to add anything to it that isn't scientifically proven/discovered/relevant.

And that WAS rather creative. Little midget people who eat dirt riding the backs of giants!

Read through the posts and tell me that I haven't decided on creating something non-earth based. Now I'm not bothered how creative ur post was. It was un helpful. How are the giants supposed to survive? Give more detail! Even if you have an amazing idea I'm not bothered unless it's supported with evidence that it can survive on the planet. This isn't like a normal fantasy world this is more detailed. The idea of this world is that all the animals and stuff we have knowledge of. Their behaviour, life span, breeding, colour. Your midgets could look like anything! They could be turtles for all I care.
We can add special minerals! I've said that the core is gonna be made up of sub-zero mercuary plus another made up element! We just never decided. I'm pretty sure when u make fantasy worlds they have about 30 animals less than 50 plants and you draw a planet looking thing.
This world is gonna have over 100,000 animals all with an in depth knowledge and even more plants! So if you think that this will end up like earth with a slight difference you are wrong. This planet/world is so early in development that you never know what could be happening. Once we get past the fundemental physics side of things them we can start adding all matter of things. But for now you will just have to wait. So drop it, we can add ur giant riding midgets later!

Wow dude

Good luck with the fact that you will literally never have time to think of 100,000 unique animals.

Why are you so stubborn? Couldn't you have just accepted that maybe your creature needed improving and now was not the time?

I don't care about the creature. That was honestly just a passing joke, but I felt I needed to defend myself when unrelated things came up.

But anyway, do you really think you will EVER be able to come up with 100,000 unique animals? The best fantasy books in the world have never done that and probably never will.

I've updated the tabs thing.
You can now see a rough cross-section of the planet. (Very poor graphics)

I just came up with a new plant:
Gelu Bibitor(Google Translate, sorry.)
aka
The Frost Drinker

This plant LIVES on the cold. It produces a protein that freezes at low temperatures, then uses the frozen protein (Minerals are frozen in it) to get energy.

So a self sufficient plant? awesome! Would animals be able to eat this stuff? If it produces more than it needs it could be eaten.

Hm... Maybe some, but as a defense, it would produce a horrible smell, and have a horrible taste.

Yes so only certain things will eat it. Like that plant which has a really horrible smell but flies are attracted to it.
Also we need to think of the extra element in the core. (Name)

What about a purely gold part of the core! 

ooh... but I was thinking more af a new element mixed with the sub-z mercury (That also needs a name so we don't have to keep writing that).

Ideas:
Witerain (Wit-er-rain) A highly flammable substance that has reverse states as normal things (solid, liquid, gas) So when it is cold it is gas hot it is solid. It is also very dense and slightly magnatised.
s-z mercury can also be called Estlemetal (or) Estle.

How about a new, strong element, that's also magnetic?

And I guess I'll help with this. Seems fun.

Three elements in the core? OR it could line the core so it stops the Estle escaping. (I'm using Estle temp.)

Estle?

I know I am not in this thing but I have a good idea for the name of the planet. How bout Scalpere? (Thats latin for scratch.  )

It's not a 'who's' in it. It just people who have helped, anyone can contribute.
