== Fauna == The crater was originally thought to be completely uninhabited, part of why it was chosen as an initial landing site; the colonists would pose a minimal threat of disruption to the native ecosystem. However, nearly upon arrival there were signs of unexpected life in the form of the [[Xerolith|xeroliths]] - massive creatures resembling something crustacean or insectoid. After colonists first accessed Hayashi Cliff in 2173, several species of insects and aquatic life were discovered as well. The settlers also brought some unexpected life with them. On February 3rd, 2170, an unidentified species of rat which was suspected to have emerged from the ship upon landing attacked a mining party outside. These rats exhibited the ability to breathe the Artemis' toxic air, suggesting speedy adaptation. Later research would reveal these stowaways had been transformed by mass ingestion of a dangerous chemical called [[Neuril-9]], explaining their great size, aggression, and rapid mutation. While the xeroliths may be far deadlier on an individual level, the continuing plague of rats is an ongoing menace to human colonists.
