Stellaris certainly has a lot of events to keep track of, especially since they can be multi-stage and multi-outcome.

The Stellaris space universe provides players with tons of unique opportunities to improve their empire, and the Orbital Speed Demon event chain is one of them. If you manage to participate in it and find the Stellaris Alien Box somewhere in the asteroid field, you get a chance to improve your empire’s major species with a permanent trait.

Issue: Orbital Speed Demon modifies all of the Main Species, but, to my knowledge, not a subspecies. And Brain Slug Hosts are now a Subspecies. So, if I am to finish the Orbital Speed Demon, I would have all of my non-Brainslugged pops have the extra trait, while none of the Brainslugs would have that. And it'd remain so forever.
