You have confirmed the choice and is now an Oviparous dungeon. Traits are now generating....
.....
Please check status for further information
Nice! I have no idea what that trait thing is but at least I got what I wanted. Alright, time to check my status here.
"Menu, Status"

INTeresting...... I don't suppose you can guide me a little.
Please select starting creature
Oh, it worked. How nice. So then, you infernal blue boxes, would you so kindly display my starting creatures.
Plant life All different kinds of plant life, to trees, moss, ferns to flowers, fungi and algae. These producers of infinite food will surely be a wonderful addition to you dungeon. While these plants are immobile and not dangerous, they have a wonderful versatility and can be changed to suit the dungeon's desires. Insect[recommended] The name may be a little misleading, since this actually encompasses all of the bugs, not just insects. From worms to spiders, scorpions to ants, these are the perfect cheap yet effective source of food capable of rapidly replenishing their supply all on their own. They are hardy yet dangerous and pose a capable force. Animal Is there anything more filling than a nice whole boar, a great cut of beef? The answer is, probably not much. Animals are a fantastic source of food for the dungeons creatures, allowing them to stay sated for a long period of time. They also allow the creatures to practice hunting. On the other hand, the take a long time to replenish their supply, so the dungoen must keep a close eye on their population. Crystals[conditions not met] ----------
This is a no brainer. If we are picking freaking pseudo maggots then the only option is to go with inse- haha just kidding its plants. I mean, look at caterpillars, what is their main source of food? Plus, what some of the most toxic living things on Earth in my past life. No it is not MOBA players its plants. Take nightshade, angel's trumpet and whatnot. No better choice, for me at least. Woohoo let's go, on a trip in a-

Do you wish to confirm your choice for your Dungeon Creature as Plant Life
Ah, yes please. With a cherry on top
You have now finished with selecting the races of your dungeon. Status of dungeon is now accessible. Options in Catalogue unlocked. Guide to spawning now availible. You have acquired an achievement. Information on Achievements now availible.
That's nice... wait achievements? They have avhievement!? Okay boys, buckle up we going on a achievement spree! Try all options! Spare no cost! Nah just kidding, who would even care. Welp, "Status"
Status Name [none] Dungeon points - Animus - Achievements [achievements] Titles - Further Details [Further Details]
Interesting once again..... So much new information. I wonder what I could do with those. For now, let's just take a look at the achievements.
Achievements [Unique Dungeon]: Due to certan reasons, your dungeon has acquired a characteristic that is unique. Your dungeon's unique trait is oviparous. (Similar traits can still be unique) {As a reward you have recieved 10 animus}
Right... unique. I mean, I guess huh. They did say that similar traits can still be unique which means that this is not an extremely rare occurence but rare all the same. Still no idea what a trait is though but...meh, I'll find out some other day. For now, I'm just going to start my dungeon. My lovelies, wait for me.
You have now chosen to start your dungeon. You have been given [300 Dungeon Points(DP)]. Use the DP to purchase 10 larva eggs in the Catalogue.
All righty! Ready, get set and GO! "Menu, Catalogue, Purchase 10 eggs"
You have purchased 10 larva eggs. Please place them down beside the dungeon core. The closer the monster is to the core, the greater the influence the core holds over the monster.
The core? Oh, you mean the wierd crytal object? Wait, that's me isn't it. Yeap, it's me. Come to think of it, why is my vision so far away from my- You know what. The more I'm going to think about it the more I'm going to get confused. Ignorance is bliss. Let's just take this for granted and be done with it. Let's see, "Place Eggs, 10"

Oh! They appeared! Wow, that is some next level technology right there. A fantasy world is amazing no doubt.
You have been give [100 DP]. Please use the DP to purchase 20 plant seeds in the Catalogue, then plant them close to the eggs. The closer the plant is to the core, the greater the influence the core holds over the plant.
Influnce? Bah, I'm just going to tire myself out at this rate. Okay..."Menu, Catalogue, Purchase 20 Plants, Plant Plants, 20"
For the final step, you may infuse animus into one of the eggs to allow them to mutate easier and change into a Variant. Use this [10 Animus] well. Animus is a unique resource that only dungeons can utilise. Similar to mana, which a dungeon can manipulate with relative ease, Animus is far harder to come by but it provides a far more potent boost to a monster or creature's evolution. Animus can be either gained through achievements or through other means. (gain animus through such a method to know its description)
Ok? So I guessing this is like the equivilant of premium currency, minus that we can't exactly cash here to pay to win. So let me just pour it- How do I do it again. Let's see, animus, animus, feel the animus. Oh! I feel it! It's swirling inside me, fuoo it actually feels rather pleasant. Its those feelings where you drink a nice cuppa coffe in the morning and the warmth stays in you kind of feel. Okay now to draw out some of it.... like taking a ladle and scooping it out, the ladle is the size of... of 10 animus. Now to pour it over the eggs. Carefully... Carefully... Ohhhh this is stressfull.
Wait. No! No! NONONONONONONO! Not at a time like this! Why is this happening! How do I even need to sneeze with no nose! Hello? Logic? Wai- ah-Ah-AH--- ACHOO! Oh dear, the ladle spilt. Ohhhh dear, that was not supposed to happen.
I can now only watch in dismay as the seeds absorbed the spilt animus.
