I wolf down the remains of the creature as quickly as possible, not willing to leave myself vulnerable on open ground any longer than I have to. I myself dropped out of a stone wall and this unfortunate being crawled up out of the floor, which means there could be more of my kind ready to appear at a moment's notice from any surface around us. I won't take the risk, not until I know if others like me are hostile or not. As my jaws crunch and tear, I try to examine this 'profile', succeeding in having it supplied within my mind after a few attempts.
Basic Profile:
[Coepi Demon Larva: Initial Demon Larva, The first phase of the demon life cycle. Beware the claws, they are stronger than they appear.]
Well that didn't tell me much. And what's with the poor Latin? No matter.
[You have gained one Biomass.]
And I can't eat anymore. It's actually a surprise that I managed to get through so much of a creature the same size as myself, in fact, it should have been physically impossible, especially since I don't believe that I've increased in size. No matter, I can explore this and other questions shortly. Using my arms, I drag myself across the boiling rocks until I find a neat crevice where I can hide whilst I consider my next plan of attack. So far, I haven't seen any other movement, but that doesn't mean there won't be more larvae popping out of the walls.
I was able to gain six Biomass from the creature I defeated, not much but I have to assume that there is something I can do with these 'points'. It's clear to see that they are an important element of this game like world and I need to understand how they function immediately. After a short while, I worked it out.
[You can use skill points to purchase new skills or upgrade existing ones.]
[Biomass can be spent to improve or modify aspects of your physical, monstrous form.]

spend my Skill points to purchase skills and upgrade ones that I already possess? Or did they reach a threshold? And these were the skills available to me right now? I wonder if leaping strike was available by default or if it appeared
