That's when you use the Monster Class rules for deconstructing a monster to create a level progression that starts at 1st, and ends with your character becoming a fully grown version of whatever critter it is you've been developing into. The example in the book is that of a minotaur, which starts as a Medium-size creature with a gore attack and a little natural armor. Over a few levels, your bull-headed character increases in size and strength, becomes more and more cunning (unable to get lost, or caught flat-footed, for example), and ends up as a fully-grown creature resembling the nasty surprise Theseus found in the labyrinth."so you start as a 'baby' minotaur? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f644.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll eyes    :rolleyes:"  data-smilie="11"data-shortname=":rolleyes:" /> from the wizard's site: <a href="http://www.wizards.com/dnd/article.asp?x=dnd/iw/iw20021215a" target="_blank">http://www.wizards.com/dnd/article.asp?x=dnd/iw/iw20021215a</a></blockquote>
