[Abandoned] Evolutionary Origins

Note: Due to real life issues I will not be working or updating this mod for the forseeable future.

This mod adds 11 new origins to Stellaris. These new origins are as follows.


DLC Requirements: Utopia

Origin Requirements: Xenophile or Fanatic Xenophile ethics

This is Syncretic Evolution for xenophiles. With this origin your empires start with half of your homeworlds population being of a secondary species. Some of your leaders will also start as your secondary species, with a 50% chance of your leader being your secondary species.


DLC Requirements: None

Origins Requirements: Can not be hive minded or Fanatical Xenophobe.

With the Pre-Sapient Cousins origins your empire starts with 3 randomly generated Pre-Sapient pops living on your planets homeworld. Pre-Sapients based events may occur on your homeworld, and with the right tech you can uplift them. You can also exterminate them if your that kind of empire.

With the undesirables origin you can customize a perfect secondary species to purge from the galaxy. 4 of them will spawn right on your homeworld right at the start of the game. Work them to death or cook them into a tasty snack the choice is yours.


DLC Requirements: Apocalypse

Origins Requirements: Doesn’t have Machine Intelligence Authority or Agrarian Idyll civic

Your civilization starts on a Tomb world with the tomb world habitability. It seems that the first species to evolve on this world nuked themselves into extinction. Luckily the radiation mutated a few animals and gave rise to a second civilization.
