SpYne

SpYne is a SciFi sotry written by Alsojames. It is about an alien race's invasion of Earth in 2345. Humanity calls them 'Spinal Reapers' (usually just 'Spinals'), because they steal their opponents' dead's spines after a victory. 
It is rated 'M'/18a, for 'Blood, Gore, Violence, Strong language and mild sexuality.
== The Spinals ==
The Spinals are the primary antagonists of SpYne. They are an alien race from beyond the known galaxy, whose primary interests are inflicting pain and collecting spines (the reason for this is unknown). 
The standard Spinal foot soldier stands at about 5'12" and weighs approximately 180lbs. Their armor appears to be a natural exoskeleton made out of an unknown substance. This exoskeleton also, invariably, has sharp spines jutting out of the shoulders, crown of the head, back of the hands and tops of the feet.
Their weapons are all based on one kind of technology. Firing mechanisms are similar to that of human weapons (triggers are pulled), though they fire small, though very sharp, spikes that explode on impact, achieving an effect similar to one as if a person detonated a small frag grenade inside a person. Survivors are rare, thankfully, but even the most trained medics have extreme difficulty pulling shards out of a survivor of such an attack.
Little else is known about Spinal technology, but the tanks we have encountered share similar appearences to that of the foot soldiers, in that they always seem to have spines on them.
Reletively new to the scene are Tremyr Wyrms. These massive, mechanical worms are almost two kilometers long and about fifty meters wide. They are apparently used by the Spinals for leveling cities, as seen in Moscow in a flashback.
Despite their massive size, they are not as difficult to destroy as one might think. They can be easily destroyed by a fighter jet squadrom of four or more with incediary rounds equipped. However, they would be devestating if combined with anti-air guns.
Currently, two Tremyr Wyrms have been mentioned:
 
-The one that took out Moscow 
-The one that levelled the city that Lily lived in 
Both of these Wyrms have been destroyed.
