So we're size 3375 ? We'll most likely be bigger than anything in this pool, so jump in it without shapechange and feed in amoeba form.
You're size 3400.  Keep in mind that in amoeba form, you aren't really strong. It doesn't need a strong force to tear you apart.

1 size =1 cm³

So you 're now equivalent to a cube with sides of +- 15 cm³
+-15cm. not cm3. beware :P

I support the underwater BIG fish with insect features.

Imo, big forms = wasting our ability to split

War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.

yes but too small mean too vulnerable. Maybe next ability would be to "insta split".

I disagree, swarm tactics give much bigger flexibility and survivability then - let's be the biggest creature.

Big = easy to detect and injure. And something bigger can kill us wile we are in one piece, while losing several clones isn't big deal

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

You change your form once more, turning into a large heap of strange antlike creatures. Then you slither into the pool to look for food. You find out there are a couple of options.

A. Attack water insects: Good source of food, might be attacked by larger fish.
B. Eat weeds: Low energy return.  +-Safe
C. Attack large fish. High risk, high gain
D. Look at the bottom of the pool for burrowed animals like frogs and such. (Energy intensive, might gain nothing)
E. Other


Name:  Deoxys
Biomass: 50 (59 clones)
Energy: 20/50 (actions cost one or more energy)
Nutrients: 10/25 (Turned into energy. Partly returned when said energy is used for actions, but not for transformations)
Abilities: DNA assimilation, splitting, Minor DNA modification (Can change size of parts, can try to modify DNA)
Current look:  Antfish (5 cm long, 1 high, 1 broad)
Status: Near a pond
Spoiler: Current form (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Dna library (click to show/hide)

A. Use pack tactics and have sentries so we will not be taken by surprise by predators.

If attacked disperse for a second to confuse the predator and then attack it from every side.

As in, digest 50% of the insects. Or as in turn them in a blob of reserve food?
