	In 2624, '''New Darwin''' was dying due to toxicity in '''Invidia-III's''' entire ecological chain as a result of extreme over-development, and as a result of the Cooperative's conflicts with all major corporations, none were willing to assist them. However, as a central figure for a religious movement that spans a hundred worlds and billions of believers, death would have to fight for its prize. '''New Darwin''' ordered all believers of the '''Tiger Cooperative''' to take to the stars and bring back a life-form that could extend their life indefinitely. This hunt yielded extremely poor results for the Cooperative, whittling down the population of xenofauna in the Cooperative's territories to nearly nothing while providing nothing of value for '''New Darwin'''. That was, until 2629, when an unnamed transport shuttle brought back a frozen specimen that closely resembled a slug (later identified as a [[Changeling]] headslug by [[Nanotrasen]] scientists). Despite being in deep space for approximately 10 years according to the ice dating, the slug miraculously returned to life in front of '''New Darwin's''' deathbed, and the religious leader immediately ordered everyone away so that they could examine the creature in private. Reports of the event remember hearing a crashing sound, and when the guards returned to the room, the slug was gone, and '''New Darwin''' was standing for the first time in a century coated in a strange blue liquid.

Yet, corporate knowledge of [[Changeling]]s remains limited to superficial details due to the distance the Cooperative places between itself and the other factions, and nearly all remain unaware of how deeply the tendrils of the assimilation within the ranks of every galactic organization has gone.

The Invidia Cooperative took to the stars like wildfire after their leader, a masked figure known only as '''New Darwin''' managed to completely oust the [[Terra Union]] and [[UCSH]] ~~factions~~ from '''Invidia-III''' in 2531 through usage of bio-engineered xenofauna that resembled Earth's Bengal Tiger. A symbol that the movement itself would rally around and rename themselves to, becoming the '''Tiger Cooperative'''. As the movement moved away from and matured from their modest roots, the Cooperative started to care less about its original goals of preserving natural life, and started to market the planets occupied by the Cooperative as resort worlds, and began to build increasingly unsustainable centers for worship.

However, the Cooperative bases are constantly expanding under the surface of the planet, forming interconnected biotech hive cities, completely hollowing out the corpse of the paradise world that it once was and turning it into something new.

			Members of the modern Cooperative are more similar to cultists and terrorists, rather than religious believers, with most either inheriting their faith from their families or from immense hatred for the corporations that rule over most intelligent life in the modern age. They strive to become a part of the "evolved", which translates to assimilation into the changeling hive. The members of the Cooperative mistakenly believe the upper rings of the '''Tiger Cooperative''', or the "evolved", to be heavily modified humanoids, when in reality, they're [[Changeling]]s who devoured the minds of Cooperative members.
