ten thousand years ago, a race known as the Gretians roamed a planet in the 'Mirrored' solar system. It is called this because the planet system is nearly identical to ours. and extremely close. The Gretians were not much taller than humans, and were not much smarter than dolphins, but they were the strongest creature on their planet. They hunted the weaker species, and drove many creatures to extinction, like the humans were doing on Earth. The Gretians dominated through power rather than intelligence, until one day... the skies began to burn as a tremendous meteor shower began to slam the planet's surface, and the Gretians immediately took shelter underground. When they emerged, they found a strange glowing plant, it was green and emited a strange cloud around it. The cloud was very poisonous, and many Gretians died within a year. The Gretians knew that these rapidly multiplying plants were a threat, so they gathered thousands of tons of these plants and burried them in a large cave. They then continued their lives, hunting and multiplying... until the strange new creature arrived. These creatures looked strangely like the shelled Myrids that they had hunted their entire history, the Myrids had an unexplainable ability to float nearly twenty feet off the ground, which left them right out of reach of the Gretians... This made them a delicasy. These giant Myrids had tentacles nearly fifty yards long and easily crushed the Gretian population, the Gretians gathered and led huge armies to fight the giant Myrids, but they couldn't kill the massive beasts. They were crippled and hunted, something they had never before experienced. They blamed the green crystal plant, and hid in their caves. When they emerged from their caves, they found that the "Oknids" as they had named them, had built large clay cities. The Gretian population was slaughtered by the intelligent Oknids... the Oknids had successfully driven nearly every creature into extinction. The few remaining Gretian ranks were forced back underground, where they made their first written language. That is how I came to learn of their plight. The last Gretians later died from a disease known only as the "Frent Plague", the plague that first appeared with the strange green plant. It is my assumption that this plant caused the shelled Myrids to mutate, and then grow to a massive size. Unfortunately for the Gretian race, they were "allergic" to the green plant, which I have named "Tikulon". The Oknids began to run low on food, and the Tikulon(which had burst out of the cave) was becoming less and less abundant. Tikulon was their secondary food source. The Oknids began expiramenting with different chemicals, they found what would be our downfall... a chemical that produced a propulsion strong enough to launch an Oknid into space. The Oknids had the ability to suck in enough oxygen to keep them alive for as long as they would normally live, which is about a thousand years. The Oknids then went from solar system to solar system, like a virus these things took planet after planet and drove millions of lesser creatures to extiction... Little did we know that one day we would be facing the same thing. Now, finally, the Oknids have reached Earth. They have destroyed our cities, our families and our lives. We have been hiding in these domes like children hiding under their mothers... Our only hope is our creation: the Humiods. Humiods are a mix between the few superior creatures we could find... Angels, Demons and Dateans. So far they have killed nearly a hundred while our advanced weapons had only succeded at destroying twelve. We have determined that our nuclear weapons were doing more damage to us than them... there are only about five hundred humans left on this forsaken planet... we only hope that the Humiods can save us before the Oknids can destroy us... but there doesn't seem to be enough Humiods, they fight and kill but continue to be pushed back farther and farther... it's only a mattter of time now...
-Professor David Gardwin. Fin 14th. 2359 A.S.
I am the fourth Humiod, Drake Havon. I have taken over the professor's work after he died. I am recording here that professor Gardwin and the other humans are down to three survivors... Unfortunately for the human race: they are all male. We have failed, and the production systems have been destroyed, we can no longer be produced, which is acceptable, now we are breeding. The Oknids are now being pushed back steadily, and the three hundred remaining Humiods are building defensive structures, which will aid us in the fight. Although now we are fighting for our own survival... More Oknids are hitting Earth every week, and I'm still trying to figure out how professor Gardwin could possibly have known about the origin of the Oknids... I will continue to do research...
-Fourth Created Humiod: Drake Havon. Gulgoth 23rd. 2360 A.S.
I have discovered how the professor managed to translate the Gretian text from so many miles away. He had built the first teleporter in history... Perhaps I can figure out how to use the teleportation device constantly, as a weapon against the condemned Oknids... Third Humiod Rift might know how to help me here... Although dragging him away from his slaying duties might be difficult.
-Fourth Created Humiod: Drake Havon. Neptic 1st. 2360 A.S.
Amazingly, Rift and I have successfully built a generator with enough power to activate the teleportation device countless times! in a little over a week. The tide has turned in our favor! Anyway, Rift also managed to create a program that tells the teleportation device to teleport people into another dimension... The first demension sling. Rift, being the secretive spug that he is, refuses to tell me how he did that... But anyway, we're considering sending several Humiods into the first accessable demension... it seems that we are the seventh... Anyway, our probes returned saying that there IS human life there. And in an effort to stay completely unnoticed, Rift managed to enchant several rings with the ability to cast a disguise over oneself... Rift's magical capabilities might explain how he programmed the teleportation device. In the mean time, we're going to use the teleportation device to smash an Oknid camp that has an unique strategic value... These things are deffinately not stupid...
-Fourth Created Humiod: Drake Havon. Neptic 9th. 2360 A.S.
Name: Humiod (Hue-Mi-Odd)
Average Lifespan: Ageless
Average *I.Q.: 200
Average Height: 8'0"
Average Weight: 280lbs
Average **Strength: 1500lbs
Average Speed: 40mph
Species required: Human/Elf/Angel/Demon/Datean
Background: Humiods, the ultimate creation of humanity. the Humiods were created to defend the human race from an alien invasion in the tenth realm. genetically modified and specially bred to create the ultimate warrior, the Humiod ranks were unstoppable. unfortunately there were too few, too late. the humans in the tenth realm were completely eradicated before the Humiods could stop the Oknids.
Name: Oknid (Oak-Nid)
Average Lifespan: estimated at one thousand years
Average *I.Q.: 0 (questionable, considering they build cities and coordinate attacks)
Average Height: 50'7"
Average Weight: unknown, they hover
Average **Strength: unknown
Average Speed: 20mph
Species required: Shelled Myrid
Background: they originated from a planet nearly seven billion miles away... Or so it is believed. Oknids are a large crab-like species that generate some sort of propulsion just strong enough to keep them off the ground. No one quite knows how, and many Humiod researchers continue to study these creatures.
Name: Gretian (Gree-She-An)
Average Lifespan: unknown
Average *I.Q.: 40/60
Average Height: 7'3"
Average Weight: 280lbs
Average **Strength: 600lbs
Average Speed: 17mph
Species required: unknown
Background: the Gretian "hoard" as it has become to be known, was once the dominant species of a solar system. Like the humans, they were driven to extinction by the Oknids. They have a primate-like form while being slightly taller than humans. They relied on their strength rather than intelligence until they were overpowered by the new species.
* I.Q. is based on a 200 point scale.

** Strength is measured by how many pounds a creature can lift five times.
