UA-566 appears to have grown a new type of paranatural parasite in its body, and will henceforth be referred to as "UA-556-B."
UA-566-B is a near-microscopic parasite that inhabits the digestive system of UA-566-A. UA-566-B feeds off of semi-digested food inside of the gut of UA-566-A, staying relatively stationary within infested intestinal tract until it has reached maturity. Upon reaching adulthood (about 3 days), UA-566-B moves out of the intestinal tract of UA-566-A and into the distal, hair-like tentacles. Here, the parasites prepare to be injected into a corpse to reproduce.
Once a corpse has been infested with UA-566-B (A process that only takes seconds), UA-566 can leave a single tendril from UA-566-A in the body which allows it to animate the corpse fully under their command. UA-566, UA-566-A, and UA-566-B communicate with each other to efficiently puppet the body to their will. This property, however, can only function while a strand of UA-566-A is slipped into the body (a maximum range of 30 feet), puppeteering the macro movements while the smaller UA-566-B control micro movements.
