Though not responsible for the organism's appalling rate of reproduction, the young Murgh did craft the obscenely cute gaze of this inauspicious and undesired mascot.

Murgh, an oldtimer of the first wave of the Oolite era who briefly showed traits of intense and profligate industry, before he suddenly vanished into the soupy fog of a distant nebula.

Initially scouted from the factory floor of Genfun by the august benefactor Aegidian, who saw beyond the excessive exuberance of the young sycophant and took notice of his sickly cute tweaks to the latest genetic modifications of the Trumble menace. He was taken from obscurity and given the means to try his hand on material construction in a few diverse fields. A brief but chaotic reign running the Murgh Shipyards saw the construction of several ships and stations, as well as running a space-taxi service and an advertising firm on the side, with varying success.

Perhaps fundamentally unsuited to the pressures of such widespread consumer demands, his career came to a sudden halt in the middle of the production of a new announced racing league, as shoddy work was found strewn about, dumbfounded investors left empty-handed, and the supposed creator nowhere to be found.

Decades since, accounts of a creature going by the name of Old Murgh indicate this may be the same individual having made a diametric occupational shift. Presently be located somewhere in the Teveri system, trading wine and other evil juices and describing himself as a humble wine-wallah, he consults patrons on complementing grubs and exotic foods with Ribilebian burgundies, Ditizaian sherries, and Leestiian tokays, for a fee.

Diso B2 Station - the first "second orbital station" against Diso's nebulous heavens.
The seminal Torus station at Onrira, before refurbishment. Initial designs proved hazardous as the construction was prone to spontaneously burst into a swarm of its constituent cells.

Permission to update his .oxp's

...of course you may feel totally free to update any of the old OXPs or otherwise make use of the old scraps if they can still hold appeal. It would be very cool for me if something from so long ago could even in a small part manage to survive through the ages, along with the simple and brilliant concept of Oolite...
