>>38405609>Take Celesteela for example.Celesteela is inherently fascinating from top to bottom because it's such a good alien organism design and it's point of conflict is purely from it being introduced to such a radically different environment.
Pic related is that radically different environment because Celesteela -if I remember correctly- is one of the few UB we actually get to see a decent image of it's indigenous or otherwise native habitat/world. Celesteel comes from a planet where it's super common because there's no other tangible or understandable vegetation, the land is rife with sulphur, acid, boiling lakes, and geyser, so for all we know Celesteela in their native habitat may be ironically vital to the ecosystem.
Perhaps Celesteela are a sort of pioneering organism? Adapted and evolved to specifically seed inhospitable or planets that are otherwise in their early development and still rife with hot, toxic, unformed conditions like their home world?
It's pretty interesting stuff. I think so at least.
