Talk:Shian

Shouldn't this article simply be called "Shian"? That would be in line with the articles for the Skaarj, Nali, and every other race. Retodon8 19:24, 8 October 2007 (EDT)


 * Nobody has an opinion on this? I guess I'll just rename/move it in the near future then... Retodon8 04:30, 17 December 2007 (EST)
 * I vote "yes, move" Raffaello9 18:36, 17 December 2007 (EST)
 * That would probably mean The N should be renamed simply "N" as well... unless the word "The" is actually part of the name. IceCreamYou 18:51, 17 December 2007 (EST)

Creatures
GreatEmerald, you just added a section called "Sea creatures", but it contains incorrect information. (First of all, I didn't finish U2 yet, but I recently restarted the game to do just that.) Anyway...


 * Killer Sprout is an animal, bacteria, parasite, who-knows, or maybe simply some kind of internal organ of the creature living on/in Acheron. (Did that ever get named?)
 * Parata is from Hell. It isn't a water creature, it's more like a slug.
 * Pinwheel Fish is from Severnaya, found in the lake there.

I haven't encountered the other creatures you mention (Ugly Fish, Bellow Fish, Diver, Killer Tadpole, and School Fish), but I think they might be from another planet than whatever planet the Shian live on, but like I said, still playing the game. I think they might be better of in their own article, either something like "Cut Unreal 2 animals", or "Shian Homeworld" or something like that.

I figured the planet all the animals in U2 live on would be a good place to describe them. I already wrote about the Allerian Ice Shark, which redirects to the "Fauna" section on the Alleria article, where the actual info is. The redirect page makes it possible to show the animal on Category:Animals. (Actually not an U2 example obviously.)

I listed all the above as well as the other animals in a text file on my desktop, and plan on adding them as well, like I did with Alleria and its shark. Mukhogg and Parata from Hell, Hummer (and Snipe?) from Na Koja Abad, Killer Sprout and flying eel-like creature from Acheron (the latter is a particle effect I think, will look into it), Pinwheel Fish (2 variants?), Flying Snake, and swimming eel-like creature (particles again?) from Severnaya.

Then there are: Cyprid, Skink (no skin?), Snipe, and Water Dipper (probably just a plant with animations which is why it isn't a static mesh), which I haven't encountered in the actual game yet, so no idea what planet they're from, or were supposed to be from if cut.
