That can only end in auto-cannibalism.

Technically speaking, if you want to go there, Ouroboros, while it does devour itself, is endlessly regenerating what it destroys. Meaning we'd have infinite food in the form of an absurdly long tail.

I vote that, since we seem to be an insect larva who is in danger of death, we put off names.

Fleeing has the majority vote right now, Hydrall. We're just waiting for Karne to get the next turn up.

You're acting like characters in worse situations haven't been named on Bay12 before.

If so, I nominate Zeus as a name. Typical, but we can act up to it.

You guys can call him whatever you like but you don't have a name ingame yet and it probably won't match up. Odysseus and them are quite distinctly human! If a name comes up that would fit (ie. one syllable ending on a closed note) I'll put it in. But that's a fair ways away anyway, after you end your apprenticeship.

NOW BACK TO YOUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED MAULING!

You turn and flee! The Charging Packie has a head start and is the only one to get a free attack!5It hits!1But only barely. You manage to escape with your life intact.

You can hear the One-eyed grub chittering in the background as you run. This is the first battle you've lost.


It seems more and more grubs are coccooning. It's becoming less risky that you'll be unraveled, since a hardened coccoon can't be unwoven by small pincers and grubby determination.

Do you want to Coccoon or try to find a last minute snack?

I think we need a last minute snack, so we can not be quite as dead as we currently are.

Maybe hide, eat the pack leader's coocoon, and make a new cocoon in its place?

Try to find a hatchling just about to cocoon, eat it, then quickly cocoon in some isolated place.
