~The Cordyceps Au~
1
0Stage 1: The Spore Cloud: The planet’s atmosphere becomes hazy, changing color as spores saturate the clouds and choke out natural weather. Stage 2: Mycelial Veins: Glowing, root-like fungal veins tear through the crust, visible from space like giant, pulsating neon continents. Stage 3: Planetary Fruiting Bodies: Volcanoes, mountains, and craters morph into massive fungal stalks that erupt, shooting spores back into space. Stage 4: Hive-Mind Core: The fungus reaches the planet's core, completely hijacking his/hers consciousness and erasing his/hers original personality. Gas-Devouring Flora: On gas giants, the fungus mutates into airborne, feather-like structures that float in the gas layers, feeding on hydrogen and helium. Bio-Luminescent Rings: Debris fields and planetary rings get coated in fungi, transforming into glowing, radioactive halos of infection. Cryo-Cordyceps: On freezing outer planets or moons, the fungus adapts into a hard, parasitic ice-like structure that cracks the surface open. Orbit Alteration: The hive mind forces infected planets to slightly shift their orbits to drift closer to healthy planets to spread the spore cloud. The "Calling": Infected celestial bodies use radio waves or gravitational murmurs to lure unsuspecting moons or ships closer. Shield Lowering: The fungus forces a planet to voluntarily drop its magnetic field, allowing solar winds to carry its spores out into the solar system. In ~The Cordyceps AU~, the solar system is torn apart between the infected hive-mind Earth and toxic Venus, the trapped Moon, the frozen outcast twins Uranus and Neptune, and the remaining uninfected survivors desperately fighting back: the desperate guardian Sun, lone lookout Mercury, paranoid military isolationist Mars, roaring furnace Jupiter, beautiful ring-damaged Saturn, & forgotten sentinel Pluto. Mercury,Venus,Earth,Mars,Moon,Jupiter,Saturn,Uranus,Neptune and Pluto are male,some of Jupiters,Saturns & Uranus's moons are male & female BYE BYE HEHEHE
