^This works for me, but how would you explain Wyrd's only coming from Icyene? That has to be more than just some Haelalchemy (however you spell it), since it's racially specific, and seems to not discriminate, unless it's another Zamorakian curse, like Chaos Dwarves.

Well, I think that's just kind of how it works. Wyrds are just Icyene that have been transformed into Vampyres. You'd probably get many other similarly unique subspecies of Vampyre from many other races being transformed into Vampyres e.g
Vampyre Ilujanka
Vampyre Avernic and Chthonian demons (Which may be what the Mutated Bloodvelds actually are)
Vampyre Fairies
Vampyre Centaurs
Vampyre Ourgs
etc
You can see how all of these races would become vastly different if they too were Vampyrised (I also really want to see a Vampyre Fairy and Vampyre Ourg now). 99-120 Skill content , Skilling boss ideas , Talents , God Emissary D&D/Minigame , Vampyric and Elven tech trees

Same

I can't really get behind that either, as cool as it would be it wouldn't make sense. The Icyene would inhabit the light side of the planet and that race would inhabit the dark side. So what reason would they actually have to clash against each other? It's not like they'd really be competing for land and they'd be at a disadvantage if they tried to fight each other in the light or dark anyway.
Even if the aggression was only while they were both migrating, Saradomin creating New Domina would've ended most of the conflict but even after making it they were still fighting.



Back to this, what would you then theorize that the "other species" was?

Tbh I think the wyrd thing - while definitely having to do with an icyene's unique magical mumbo jumbo - is because an icyene's magic and soul is highly light-aligned versus blood magic's and vyres' dark nature. Causes a huge magical/spiritual clash, yanno? A vampyrized ourg would probably just be a reeaally big vyre, a vampyrized auspah would... probably be a normal vyre. Maybe use bloodfire spells depending on if those are still canon in any way. -shrug-
Vampyrized demons tho... Not sure. Cuz they have ichor instead of normal blood, right? And they're already dark-aligned and probably magical enough to resist with their own magical mumbo jumbo. Mods pls notice me

Well, remember that creatures that are darker in alignment tend to be more vicious by nature, although I'm not sure if a light world like Hallow could actually produce a species with dark world-esque anima. It's possible it was Stu being sorta Saradominist propoganda-ey, I.E. telling us what Saradomin told the icyene. After all, if Saradomin allowed the other race refused him without consequence, he might think it sends a message to the icyene that they're free to reject him as well. He slaughtered the naragi for refusing him, there's that too. Mods pls notice me

I have two hypotheses:
Lamia/Gorgon
: half human half-snake (similar to Medusa in Greek mythology) would be a natural predator of the Icyene and worship to the night. Although their have reptilian appearance they are warm-blooded creatures and more closely related to birds in the evolutionary scale. They're also an eusocial species, similar to bee or ants. That have adapted to the cold living in some of the Hallowed Isles.


Paradox Icyene
: It would be a corrupted version of the normal Icyenes. But how did they become like this? ... and why not any information about them? I don't know. But maybe Saradomin has something to do with it or even taken advantage of the situation to gain the confidence of the remaining Icyene.

Heh... Good old Yu-gi-oh cards. Well maybe not these cards, they are quite weak.

Again though, Hallow is a world made mostly of water how would they get around the planet and how would they pose any threat once Saradomin had created New Domina? 99-120 Skill content , Skilling boss ideas , Talents , God Emissary D&D/Minigame , Vampyric and Elven tech trees

I explained my 2 theroies earlier but I'll reiterate them since I added one of them way after making the orginal post and I'm not sure anyone ended up going back to read them.
1) A peice of the being Guthix exploded with the blade, which is believed to be Xau-Tak, landed in the oceans of Hallow and started building a necromantic army from dead sea life and any other corpses that ended up in the ocean.
2) A race simmilar to the Kreegans from might and magic landed on Hallow.
This race was hugely technologically advanced and had built scapeships to travel from planet to planet stripping all the planets of raw materials including organic materials. 99-120 Skill content , Skilling boss ideas , Talents , God Emissary D&D/Minigame , Vampyric and Elven tech trees
