"Ugh i HATE being stuck in this stupid core! i need a way to move around." I said
"You can have a body." Zeta replies.
"How though?" I asked confused
"You can implant a part of your core inside a monster to control it like you would with your original body." Zeta replies again
"Oh i really never thought of that! Why am i so stupid?"
"Go ahead, try it. Though, it might hurt a bit."

The ground begins to shake and break apart.
It gets crushed into tiny rocks and then the rocks begin to crawl up eachother and into a humanoid form. Then the rocks begin to melt together and solidify. A giant flash of light comes out of the rocks and they burst open revealing an ugly goblin.
"Nope i cant do this. This thing is just too hideous!"
"Get out of here you demon-spawn. OUT!"
The goblin runs away to hopefully, go disturb some other person.
"Well, that was weird."
"You think, Zeta?"
"I need a body but i dont want to use a goblins body. You got any ideas, Zeta?"
"Well yes, You could have used that goblin to go hunt something to get a new monster, but you decided to send it off to go kill itself!"
"Ok ok, I dont need sass from a fricking A.I!"
It seems that Zeta is getting a personality.
*ROAR*
"Huh what was that?"
Suddenly, i felt something enter my territory.
"Oh no i should have built a trap!"
Inspecting the new creature, it looks almost exactly like a bengal tiger!
The only difference is that it's claws are way longer than normal.
Luckily for me, Five days have passed and my ant population has gone from 6 ants to over 80!
I still dont know if they will be enough to stop this hulking beast but, its worth a try!
With all my might i command my ants to destroy this intruder.
In the mean time, lets see what kind of traps there are!

{Traps}
Springboard Tripwire
"Tripwire? why do i have that?"
{Tripwire: A basic trap that can trigger linked traps. Useful if you want to give someone a bloody nose.}
{Springboard [Linkable]: A trap that launches the enemy back 3 feet.}

"Oh thats why i have a tripwire! its for later on in life. But wait... How do i get new traps?"
"Hey Zeta, How do i get new traps?
"You can design them or have them designed by a living being in your dungeon."
{Springboard}
A green hologram of a board with a spring under it popped up in my vision. While testing this, i found i can rotate and move it with a thought.
{Cancel}
*Roar*
The bengal tiger smashed some of the ants off of its body in a blind rage trying to stop it from being bitten.
"Good, it seems the ants are still keeping him occupied."
{Springboard}
The green hologram popped up in my vision once again. I rotated it to face away from my core into a big wall.
{Accept}
A big block of stone raised up where i decided to place it and the stone began to mold itself. With the sound of stone against stone, the bengal tiger winced as its ears were being massacred by the loud noises. The ants took the chance and crawled into its ears and began eating its brain. The tiger started bleeding from its ears, in such a force that it would have blown normal ants straight out.
But these were no normal ants. They could hold on to almost anything.
The tiger let out one last whimper before falling limp on the floor.
It decomposed fast and i felt the same strange energy entering my body!

Giant spider Bats Grappler
"Grappler, What's that?"
[Grappler: A wolf with a plant growing on its back that shoots a harpoon covered in paralyzing poison.
"Hmm, that might be useful."
{Grappler}
[Confirm choice?]
{Yes}
Suddenly, i felt my hunger increase drastically.
I am going to need food. My own monsters dont feed me any and that tiger only gave me a bit of relief.
Race: Demicore Resident population: 3 Name:
{New skill: Body Reuse: The user can reuse a body that died in its domain. The body is a zombified version of the body and stops working after a set amount of time.}
{Special skill: Body creation: The user can create a body to move around in using stone or dirt. HP of the body depends on how well the user builds the body and what it is made of."
"Ooh that is cool. Might not be much of a use though."
"Especially because the bodies decompose after a while. They would be useful for a last line of defense."
Finally, i can get a decent body!
I decide to create a sleek body so i can move around easily.
Stone begins to break down and form into a slim humanoid body for me to inhabit.
Once again, the stones melt together except for the joints and then they fuse together.
Here is my new body.
I transfer my crystal into my new body.
"Woah, it feels weird to have a body again!"
Back to setting up my traps.
Infront of the springboard, i carved stone spikes out of it. The hope is to have the monster or enemy steps on it and it launches the intruder onto spikes.
"Dang, i can feel my evil coming out already!"
"You gain more power for the suffering of other monsters and humans."
"Yeah that helps alot Zeta!"
Now we need someone to test my new trap setup
[Attention: Trap created; Springboard spike: Springboard launches the intruder onto a large amount of spikes.]
"Ah so thats how you get new traps!
