Template:Excerpt

“	This specimen is representative of an insect hybrid that uses electricity in addition to glycogen for its energy. Although difficult to confirm due to their microscopic size, tiny hairs on the creature's legs cause the friction that generates the electrical charge. The electrical charge is processed by the creature's internal machina battery structure, and then stored as a deus electrifical field. As this field reaches critical levels, surplus electricity is emitted, resulting in a low voltage current that is transmitted between specimens. It can shock other creatures in the immediate vicinity. Considering this process, it can be surmised that the largest impetus to pack behavior is not so much for synergic effect of producing as a pack as it is to take advantage of this most effective means of group preservation.	”

List changing process

Only staff members can change this template, and as such, change the list of excerpts. That person should follow these steps:

1. Edit this template's list of excerpts in the #switch block, using the same format as the existing excerpts.
2. Edit the number after mod at the top of the #switch block so that it equals one more than the ID of the last excerpts.
3. Edit the excerpt list.
4. (Optional) Add an offset to the #switch block so the template shows the same excerpt as before instead of jumping to another point because the mod value was changed.

This process applies both to adding and removing excerpts.
