Day 1
'Dark...cold...hungry'
Those thoughts ran rapid through his head, his small heart slowly beating.
'Need food...need light'
The creature tried to move his limbs to no avail, the only thing that moved was his strange body.
'...strange...never mind...New tactic'
The creature bashed it's head on anything around it hoping to break free of the darkness.
*Bam, Bam, Bam, Crack*
'A crack...'
Light shined through the small cracked that pierce the darkness.
He continued to break through into the light, slowly the cracks grew and then. The darkness disappeared and all that was left was light...and blurred colors.
[Absorbed light energy...]
[Light Affinity unlocked]
'Affinity...what is that?'
Words suddenly appeared in the creatures head, words that confused the creature.
'What...am I?'
He slowly began to inspect his body, it was slick and slimy and was barely a foot long. His mouth was filled with small sharp teeth and his body was colored black.
'...am I a worm...'
Knowledge...words...suddenly burst into the young creatures head showing him his past life. He was a unemployed 23 year old man, he was intelligent for his age and was quite talented sadly...He was put through tuff times. Drugs and booze destroyed his family, his father was always so mad.
Both his parents died during a fight and he was left alone, no one wanted him. He strived to live...to survive, he worked many odd jobs and was able to scrape up money. One day walking home from the store he noticed a women being assaulted.
As a good citizen would he ran to help, he was able to beat some of the attackers but sadly one of the punks had a gun. The woman was able to escape but at the cost of the man's life, shot twice in the chest. All the man wanted was to survive to strive...but now he slowly drifted off to death...that man's name was Felix.
'...my names Felix...I see I must have died then...might as well try to survive this time'
Felix started to practice moving with his new body, he was able to move at a slow speed by simply slithering like a snake. Apparently the darkness from before was the inside of an egg. The egg was colored black with a bit of red here and there.
'...first I need food then shelter'
The surroundings are dense trees and bushes, a good place for animals. Felix slithered off into a nearby bush hoping to find food, what he found was. Three beetles fighting for territory, all where colored deep red with horns attached to the front of there heads. Strangely enough small words appeared above there heads.
'...Striker beetles'
The beetles way of fighting was blindly charging into one another hoping to defeat the opponent. Felix observed how they fight and their weaknesses...He wasn't fully confident to defeat them. They where halve of his size and also had a natural weapon, there horns.
Felix slowly retreated from the fighting beetles and back to his egg.
'I wonder if...'
Using his mouth Felix began to eat away the dirt beneath him, to him it didn't taste bad at all. He continued to eat the dirt until he was able to make a small underground den.

' I guess being a worm has its perks'
Felix began to expand the den, also eating dirt a lot of dirt during his dig.
[Absorbed Earth energy...]
[Earth affinity unlocked]
'Another one of those affinitys...how strange, maybe being connected to the elements give me there affinitys?'
After digging for a couple hours Felix internal clock told him that it was night time.
'So this body even has a clock...convenient'
Felix curled up into a coil and began to sleep peacefully.

'...reminds me of the novels my old self used to read, I was sent to a game world maybe even fantasy...lucky me'
The word slowly faded from Felix's mind, he left the den to find the beetles from yesterday. Luckily only one remained the other two where on the ground dead. Felix wasn't seen by the beetle yet so he began to sneak behind it.
[Sneak unlocked]
'Interesting even actions provide me with these messages?'
Felix quickly returned his attention to the beetle, sadly it already noticed him and was charging straight towards him. It's speed was pretty fast, luckily Felix dodge but one of his sides was cut by its horns.
'Damn...'
The beetle hit a tree during its charge so it was stuck, Felix rushed behind the beetle and began bitting it's body.
It was really easy to breal throuth its body which surprised Felix.
'Striker beetles must be more focused on offense then defense...'
The beetle struggled but soon it feel limp, Felix took his time eating the meat under its shell.

'I see...I can buy upgrades for my body, interesting'
Felix brought all of the traits and upgrades which cost him 19 DNA points leaving him with just one.
After he bought them his body was surrounded by a faint light, his body began to change.
Legs emerged out of his body, he's teeth grew sharper, stronger, and slightly longer. His body grew to a foot and a halve, his body was then covered in weird scale like skin.
'The change was...interesting, I felt my body change yet I felt no pain...I wonder what else does this world have to offer?'
Felix was now a foot long lizard like creature with sharp red eyes, his legs and body covered in black scales.
He went back to his den to sleep, another days end and a new beginning has started.
