You walk into a nicely furnished laboratory, you just had a man named Leonard Nimoy explain what you need to do, he'll be there for advice and guidance. You are tasked to handle and take care of a creature called 'Seaman', they had five stages: Mushroomer, Gillman, Podman, Tadman, and Frogman.

There was a table with a large aquarium tank that was filled with water, some sand, decorative rocks, and what looks like a Nautilidae curled up in the corner, and there was a small storage box next to the tank that said 'Seaman'.

You open the small storage box, revealing white, ping pong sized balls inside, but upon closer inspection they were transparent. So you take the ball shaped egg and drop it in the tank, adjusting the oxygen and heat of the water as you wait.

Just then, the egg bursts open! Seven little white parasitic looking creatures swim about. The Nautilidae noticed them, and swam to the parasitic hatchlings, eating four of them, you had three left now, well that sucks! However after a few minutes, the Nautilidae started to freak out, swimming and spasming erratically in the tank, and suddenly the four parasites popped out of the poor Cephalopod, and it died as it sunk to the bottom.

The four hatchlings looked less like tiny parasites and more like.. fish? Guppies? They had the body of a carp, but the face of a a human, with a long tentacle like probe on their head. They couldn't seem to speak in English, but Leonard said they'd learn to speak eventually, they just need more time. Right now your priority is to take care of them, good luck!
