After we get a few I will randomly roll up two different creatures and then set them against each other. The board will then decided which one is the superior creature and it will go on to the next round. That is all 
I have the ability to reproduce myself in a matter of minutes(too unbelievable?). I live in a moist climate with an abundance of vegitation. I can swim in water or walk/run on land.

Bah, you know what I meant. 
It lives in the pristine snowy forests, gently hop-hopping around.
Its survival trait? Spontaneous detonation!@#% Their bunnyfood gives them gas, and occasionally while hop-hopping around, it gets jarred and goes KABLOOIE sending fur and ears flying everywhere! Other woodland creatures have learned to avoid it for fear of getting blown the fuck up.
Hop-hop! Hop-hop! Hop-h*BOOM*
Plus they can flap their floppy bunny ears really fast and fly.
The ancient something-or-others used them as furry flying hand grenades. Shake 'em up real good and toss 'em, and hope they land on the badguys!

For the individual no. FOr the species yes. Kills off predators.

It works on the same principle as those poison arrow frogs.
My creature is the Morbistinian Spotted Ooze. It resembles a translucent, overgrown slime mold and is technically a fungus. Its slimy skin is covered with the darker patches that give it its name.
Its survival trait is its absolutely repellant taste. Unfortunately, this very trait has caused them to be hunted almost to extinction and sold to tourists as a "local delicacy." When rubbed vigorously against the eyes, it serves as a hallucinogen and causes permanent retinal damage.
Most of them live in caves, though urban development means that more and more are moving into basements. [ 11-18-2003: Message edited by: MorbId ]
I want to be a mass/colony of bacteria and viruses and other such pathogens, all working together with a singular mind. I want a flexible body structure, but ultimately unable to maintain any definite shape other than a blob for any period of time. I.e. I can't swim around in water looking like a fish but maybe I can use my blobous backside to paddle through or something (so obviously forming wings and flying would be out of the question). All my other traits besides being a living mass of nasty germs and shit would be pretty normal. Maybe I could feed by swarming my little bacterial minions around my victim and absorbing them into my body. I'd be like a gelatonious cube.
And! If I'm threatened I protect myself in a giant endospore! And then regrow later. Like a turtle, except not. Oh yes. This is lame.
(I have nothing better to think about.)
Named for the German scientist who discovered it, the subterranean predator lives in underground lakes of lava-heated water with sulphuric compounds, feeding off the rubbery eel-like Trejaals. Resembling a clawed, beaked tortoise, it is covered with a heat-hardened bone shell over its torso and has interlinking plates down its limbs and head. Since there is either a great deal or an extreme lack of light in its territory, it has highly adjustable sonic sense.
It's special trait however is its ability to store the super-heated water it lives in into a bladder located in its body to sustain its body temperature when it ventures into caves located closer to the surface when food grows scarce. It can vomit back the water, now highly acidic, with the pressure of a firehose if threatened. The boiling acid remains at a temperature of 300 degrees celcius. Doing so however causes it to freeze if it cannot retreat back to its habitat quickly. [ 11-18-2003: Message edited by: Azrael Heavenblade ]

Imagine if you will, a smallish, scruffy rodentlike creature, with one defining trait: Much of the abdomen of the female is dedicated to the reproductive system. Coupled with a very fast gestation rate, this rodent has an extremely high yield litter; averaging to 50ish offspring a go. Offspring are sexually mature within a week of birth, and are then in heat at all times.
This extremely extreme of r-selection facilitates great resilience to the species.

Hello popularity contest 
My trait? A special layer of skin that is fueled by chemical reactions to be at an extremely high temperature.
Plus, claws and teeth are cool too. I'd be like an armadillo, sort of, except with no shell and the ability to become extremely hot.

Bwahahaha. That's awesome! 
A large mouse-looking thing (I am RK after all) that scampers on four legs, and uses two forms of defense.
1: By using a kind of biological function, I would be able to produce large amounts of electrical energy very similar to electric eels.
2: I would be sickeningly cute, enough so that I will spawn a cultural phenomenon in Japan that will spread to America like a cancer.
Saikan Razorbeast
Of the discovery of the beast's fossilized remains on the surface of Peoa Isle, and the subsequent analyses confirming their worst fears, High Priestess Mue wrote, "We must praise Saika for this: that Her Light has allowed our scientists to see the full nature of this beast, and that She has placed it here, as a warning to what we once were and what we might again become if we stray from the path. From the moment I saw the terrible beast's features I vowed that, each day in my prayers, I would thank the Goddess for allowing us to move beyond this, and for removing the beast's odius features from our frame."
The Razorbeast is a horrific precursor to the sentient species of the Saikan homeworld. The sentient Saikans are leonine in form (not bipedal leonine, just leonine), with predominatly blue fur (although in the northern regions, thick red fur has evolved, better to absorb the sun's light; other races remain secluded). The feature most sapient species would find unique is their uniquely photovoltaic brain, which resembles an incredibly small star fitted into their skull. Streaming particles of light carry messages around the body and through the brain, as opposed to electrical impulses. Oddly enough, this light emits from small holes in the sides of the head; biologists theorize this was to allow their nonsentient ancestors (to wit, the Razorbeast) the ability to blind their prey in the dismal subterranian caverns from which almost all nonplant life on Saika's World seems to have came from originally. They also see it as proof that the sun goddess had chosen their species to walk the world in Her Light, for theres was the single species that adapted to light in the entire underground ecosystem.
The Razorbeast is a fearsome thing. The sapient Saikan has claws, but those are barely more fearsome than those of a domesticated Earth-cat's. By contrast, the Razorbeast's long, sharp claws can cut through steel like butter. The Saikan's fur is largely smooth and streamlined, but the Razorbeast has dramatic flairing pufts of fur everywhere, particularly on the end of its tail, on the sides of its torso and three large pufts around the head. The Razorbeast's teeth are just as fearsome as its huge, rending claws, and its paws are gigantic, as big as its head (which means twice as big as your head). It's body is about 8 feet from tip to tail; even so, its agility is unnerving.
The Razorbeast is extinct on its homeworld, although for the fights, the Kopaxian Survey Force discretely extracted a memetic signature to reproduce the Razorbeast from. But an even more fearsome ability is suggested by the scorch-marks, burned deep into the grass surrounding its corpse and other bones surrounding it. The neural light-paths, widened cranial holes, and really big head suggest that the Razorbeast was, in fact, able to concentrate the beams of light until they were strong enough to act as a laser. Evidentally it preferred its meat cooked. It is unknown how far the lasers were effective at, but the farthest the scorch marks were found was 10 meters...
