History

Evolution/Creation

All of Darwin's Slugs descended from unassuming Grey Forest Slug of the Southern Reaches. It somehow reached Green Droplet islands over sixteen thousand years ago. Probably transported there as a cluster of eggs. Either on piece of plant material or by a bird. Being one of the only animals on the island the slugs quickly diversified to fill the available niches.

Many of them developed foul tasting out poisonous slime and bright warning colors to deter hungry sea birds. Many of the slug species developed into herbivores, living in the trees and taking advantage of the abundant foliage. While a few became frugivores or fungivores, while at least one species became detrivores.
