5. But first MASSIVE UPGRADES. Grow a stronger cell wall, flagella, and an offensive spike of some sort.

6!

I just want a standing vote against size increases, I want to go all-out parasite.

Give us Enzyme resistance and cell wall upgrades, enzymes will not stop us!

We need to find this competitor and mind control them...

I have absolutely no idea what's going on in this fort any more. Migrants arrive, they die for some reason, the fort is flooded for another reason, then dwarves go mad, more dwarves die and I'm just laughing in my distress.

You can only control certain things at certain levels...
E.g.
If you stay the size you are, with the brain capacity and single celled, youll only be able to control other cells, like that large one you were in, or small multi celled ones.
If you increase size and brain capacity, multi-cellular then you will be able to control much larger things, will update later...

I say we buy SPECIALIZED enzyme resistance; rather than raw chemical resilience our current "acid/enzymes/stuff" resistance is we get specific countermeasures to the specific classes of enzymes we have encountered so far. It probably only woks on this specific species of cell and close relatives, but it ought to be much more powerful (approaching perfection) relative to it's price.

you have specialised enzyme resistance, acid has not been encountered yet as thats why i changed it.
You wont encounter acid anyway in cell stage...

Yeah, I think we should eat this entire damned thing.  Get a bit more enzyme resistance + a size upgrade or two and then keep munching.

Up to level 10 max, thats basically complete enzyme resistance, but if your meaning for your points.. lol dunno.

----
I think 5 wins...

Grow a stronger cell wall, flagella, and an offensive spike of some sort.
+1 enzyme res first, then +1 cell memb str, then +1 parasite skill if we can afford it.
And basically upgrade crap first...

*(Level 5 is normal parasitic abilities, and like 5% chance of the host dying, level 6 is above average parasitic abilities, and 0% chance of the host dying, level 7 is weakly efficient parasitic abilities, +5% of the cell actually being beneficial (Basically the beginnings of symbiosis.) And so on and so on till level 10, which is perfect parasitic abilities, 5% chance of being caught, 20% being beneficial to the host cell, and no chance of the host dying.)

----
You upgrade cell membrane strength, it is now level 1, it takes 2 evo points.
You now have 12 evo points
You upgrade parasite skill, it is now level 4, you are able to parasite off of larger cells just below normal parasitic abilities, much lower chance of the host dying now. *
You now have 8 evo points
Develop flagellum, you now have much faster speed and can properly direct where you want to go.
You now have 3 Evo points.
You now have level 3 enzymes resistance, enzymes effect you less.
You now have 0 Evo points...
----

You Charge at the enzymes now with your new upgraded body, consuming them one after another.
The enzymes have little time to react now that you have a flagellum.
You do sustain some damage though, although very minor compared to what you inflict on the enzymes.
The enzymes are defeated, but you can almost tell for certain that more will be coming soon, and in much larger numbers.
The body is beginning to decompose itself.

Options
1: Quickly find the nearest exit out of the cell
2: Cautiously find the best exit out of the cell
3: Stay and eat
4: FIGHT THE REST OF THE ENZYMES OFF, ITS WHAT A DWARFISH CELL WOULD DO!
5.Find your way to the Mitochondria cautiously to heal yourself
6. Find your way to the mitochondria recklessly to heal yourself
7. OTTER

stats
---
Parasitic abilities: level 4, you can now properly parasite off of cells
Enzyme resistance level 3: enzymes can only do 7/10 damage to you.
Cell membrane str level 1: Your hitpoints is increased by 2

Evo points: 3 from eating the enzymes.
Hp:Body: 3/6
Hp:Flagellum: 4/4, Speed: Optimal,
Hunger: 100% Fulfilled.
----
Things are going to be stepped up a notch as now your basically out of the "tutorial" zone...
And can we please get out of this cell... lol...

Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Option 8: Divide your cells to two complete cells, this will take some time and by the time your finished the cell will be 50% decomposed and the second much larger wave of enzymes will be at the nucleolus.

Forgot about this...

GODDOMMIT.

Accidental post... was meant to edit mine but i clicked on quote on dortons...

... I just realised i could have made a spike... Next time when you have atleast 10 evo points...
It requires buying another flagella and hardening it...
You didnt have enough evo points thought and wouldnt have had the necessary upgrades to survive.

Might as well make use of this post...

As the cell is degrading, this will attract other cells, maybe not as large or larger cells but enough to cause you problems as time goes on...
