Encounters in Every Biome

Encounters in Every Biome

You spot something laying abandoned by the entrance to a rabbit burrow. It's been nibbled on but the scent of rabbit is stale now. You sniff at it, wondering what its purpose is. It's a cluster of branches and sticks tied together in the shape of a human. Maybe it will be useful later?
Take Effigy You gently move to take the effigy, using care as you slide it into your jaws. It seems strange, and for some reason you feel a little dizzy after grabbing it, but you have a feeling it will be useful later, so you take it with you. +1 ME
You gently move to take the effigy, but even though you exercise care, the item seems to... React negatively to you?! With a sharp hissing noise, the effigy begins to unravel in your jaws - and with what feels like a bolt of lightening and a sudden snap, it sends a shock of heat through your muzzle and crumbles to dust. What the hell?! -2 HP
You gently move to take the effigy, but as your jaws clamp gingerly around it, the effigy crumbles into a crispy, flaky dust. Sadly, the mysterious effigy has disintegrated, and you have to walk away empty pawed. N/A


A funny-looking figure is wedged between two low-hanging tree branches. It looks harmless, but you feel uneasy looking at it. Perhaps it was some sort of toy once, and has been discarded by a human? The pups in your den might like playing with it, so you pull it down and take it with you.

The river has washed something ashore, and you're not quite sure what to make of it. It's soggy and smells wrong, but is oddly intact despite the roughness of the water. You pick it up in your jaws and try to ignore the gross, slimy taste.

You're tracking a herd of deer when you come across an object that has been kicked and stomped on. Hoofprints cover the ground around it, as if it had been purposefully targeted. Had it spooked the deer? You peer at it, and it looks like a simple bundle of sticks put together by humans. It doesn't seem very damaged, either. Weird!

While treading a well-worn path, your pelt begins to prickle and you feel a deep sense of foreboding. You sniff the air, but there's nothing out of the ordinary. As you look around you see a shadowy shape lurking in the grass. You make your way toward it on high alert, but quickly realize it's just some sort of human thing made out of sticks. Had someone left it here?

You stop to sniff a pile of poo and to your surprise, it's covering something! It's not exactly fun, but you dig the object out of the pile. It smells like shit, but it looks harmless. Why would someone poop on it? Was it offensive? Well, it's clear the previous owner no longer wants it, so you take it with you.

A nice breeze ripples through your fur, and you stop to enjoy it. The smell of burning wood passes under your nose, and you turn with disgust to see where it's coming from. You follow the scent and find a half-burned form laying in a bare patch of dirt, smoldering. It looks vaguely human, and you poke it with a paw. How strange. Maybe your herbalist can use it for something.

On the path ahead something is standing upright. It's small but...you hesitate to go near. Something is telling you to be wary. One paw at a time, you go up to it and give it a good sniff. Just the same damp smell as the trees. The air is still and the sound of life in the air has gone silent. This doesn't belong here, of that you're sure. Perhaps it would be best to remove it for now.

The shriek of a large bird as it flies over your head draws your attention. As you look up, something heavy and painful lands on your head. Ouch! You leap back, shaking your head to get your wits back, and look around for the culprit. You spot a bundle of sticks tied together in the strangest way sitting in the grass. Had that dumb bird dropped it on you? How rude!

Your nose leads you to a half eaten carcass that still has some meat on it. Score! As you prepare to eat your fill, you notice something stashed inside of it. It's a little human form made out of skinny wood pieces. What the heck was it doing here? Maybe someone had left it in a rush. It would explain the abandoned carcass. Well, more for you!

A weird pile of dried leaves and pebbles draws your attention from afar. While it doesn't look unnatural, there is something strange sticking out of it and you instantly have a heavy feeling in your gut, as if something is observing you. You pull the thing out carefully and it turns out to be a stick figure made by humans. Why is it here? Is it precious or cursed?

A small shape is standing still in the distance. Is it an unsuspecting rodent? In the hopes of scoring a quick snack, you try to take it by surprise.

You are disappointed, but a strange feeling that this thing is out of the ordinary settles in your mind and won't go away.

You are relaxing under a tree when you suddenly notice an odd shadow dancing in the corner of your eye. Are your senses fooling you? Determined to find its source, you stand up and sniff around. The strange shadow belongs to a human-made toy of sticks, hanging on a branch right above you. Is it really a toy? Toys should bring joy and you can't help but feel uneasy by its presence.

You almost trip over something sticking out of the muddy shore. What appears to be a simple stick at first turns out to be a bundle of them tied together as you pull it out. The little thing is obviously made by humans but its purpose is a mystery to you. It's possible it's something to play with, but it's so unsettling that you hesitate to touch it again.

A new, faint scent catches your attention. You follow it for a while, finding a strange object that resembles something that only humans create. Strangely enough, there is no sign of a human presence anywhere. You have no idea what this object is used for but you are absolutely certain that it has some mysterious purpose.

The object in front of you looks abandoned, as if it has been waiting here for you for a really long time. However, its scent is odd, like a mixture of herbs and something you can't identify, which means someone or something has purposefully left it here. While it looks like a bunch of harmless sticks bound together, there is something unsettling about it.

You almost fall into a shallow hole, covered with dried leaves and branches. The spot isn't a trap nor a hiding spot. At the bottom, you find a weird shape made out of sticks and you can't figure out what its purpose is. It looks innocent but your gut feeling is telling you to be careful. Besides the object, there is nothing else inside the hole, as if someone wanted to get rid of it quickly.

A faint but very peculiar scent leads you to a hollow tree trunk. Excitement ripples through you as you shove your nose in. Something is stuck inside and it takes a while until you can get it out.

The loud, sharp noise of fighting foxes is something that you simply have to check out. There is a high chance of grabbing a free snack but the sight is different than you expected. The foxes are fighting over something that looks like a useless toy made of sticks. You don't even have to snarl at them to scare them away. The sticks that make up the small figure are tied together in a strange manner. Typical humans, creating silly things that have no use. The shape itself loosely resembles a human too. This alone makes the object more interesting.

A sharp pain in your paw forces you to stop chasing a delicious-looking rabbit. You were so close! All this effort for nothing. Upset and disappointed, you turn back to investigate the reason behind your failure. There is an odd shape made of sticks in the middle of the path, covered partly by dirt. You've never seen anything like it but you know that it's clearly a human-made thing. You can't decide if it's intriguing or creepy.

The black, shadowy shape looks like an ordinary wolf at first, but you can sense that something is not right. It has abnormally long teeth and reddish saliva, resembling both blood and lava at the same time. Despite its scary appearance, you have the overwhelming feeling that it's suffering.
Try to scare it away You bare your teeth, trying to look as intimidating as possible. You're sure that the wolf can smell your fear, but to your surprise, the intimidation strategy works flawlessly. The demonic wolf takes a step back and loses interest in you. Now is your chance to flee! +2 ME
You let out a low growl, taking a step forward. While you appear confident and strong, the demonic wolf senses your fear and calls you on your bluff. It leaps at you silently like a nightmare, leaving you very little time to react. Somehow, you manage to escape, but you can feel a deep ache in your bones. That's gonna hurt later! +2 ME

A reddish spot in the air looks like an ember, but when you focus on it, you notice it's a butterfly. While its appearance is distorted, it looks oddly... pretty.
Follow You feel a bit mesmerised by the wings, seemingly staring at you and enticing to follow the butterfly. You follow, cautiously, until you find a dead animal. Yikes! +1 ME
+1 Random Medium Carcass
Catch You are curious about this insect! It would be awesome to study it closer, maybe even dry it up and hang it in your den? You try to catch it, but as soon as your jaws land on its wings, it dissolves into the air. The taste is incredibly bitter, but you actually feel a bit refreshed! +1 ME
+3 HP
This butterfly would look amazing in your collection of dried insects! You run after it and try to grab it, but your jaw locks on the odd misty trail it leaves in its wake as it disappears. It's disgusting and leaves a weird, tingling feeling in your mouth. +2 ME

From a distance, the body of this small fox cub appears to be a carcass. As you approach, you uncover the horrible truth—it's still alive, but barely breathing. Demonic growths have contorted its body in a painful manner, leaving it almost unable to move.
Take it to the herbalist You can't do anything, but taking the cub to the herbalist is better than leaving it here. The world is changing so quickly. As you carry the cub to your den, you look for anything that may be useful. +2 ME

A shape resembling a bear is sitting in the middle of your path, struggling to move. Usually you'd ignore it or perhaps even make a meal of it, but this is no ordinary bear. Its jaws are distorted and full of twisted, long teeth, preventing it from properly closing its mouth. It's on the verge of dying, and you are likely witnessing its last moments.
Ask what happened You're intrigued more than scared. If it's not a demonic being, then something changed the bear into this miserable creature. It could happen to you, too. When you ask the bear about its situation, it stares back at you with its eyes full of pain. It tries to speak but its words remain an incomprehensible murmur. Then, in a sudden and unexpected burst of strength, the creature lunges at you with a thunderous roar, delivering a painful bite. You manage to escape, but is its condition contagious? It's probably best to get the bite treated by your herbalist. +2 ME
-2 HP
N/A Automatic battle encounter with Affected Weak Bear
Kill it It could be a demonic being, but this bear appears... ill. And if this is a disease, then it may be contagious. You can't let it live, or else everyone around here could turn into monsters. Suddenly, the bear counterattacks with unexpected agility and strength. Had it all been a game to lure you closer? It's too late to think about that now. You use your last bit of energy to flee, but you feel a stinging in your side. That's one nasty bite! +3 ME
Illness: Infection
+3 ME
-2 HP
It's not only an act of mercy but also a preventive measure against its... disease. If it isn't a monster, then you're doing the world a favor before everyone turns into something twisted like this. You thought it would be easy, but the creature is stronger than it appears, and its nasty teeth manage to sink into your skin. Injured but ultimately victorious as you deliver the killing blow, you know such a grim end is necessary. +2 ME

At first, it looks like a common bat, but as soon as you notice its glowing eyes and the growths on its skin, you realize it's twisted beyond normalcy. Its mind is clouded, and the only emotions it can feel now are rage and pain.
Chase You try to avoid the creature, but it insists on blocking your path. With a loud growl you run after the bat, trying to chase it off. The creature is faster, thanks to its unnatural powers, and stays just out of reach. Irritated, you turn to leave, but the faint scent of herbs catches your attention. Something interesting is growing here! +2 ME
+1 Random Herb
At first, you try to scare the bat away, but the influence of the dark magic makes it more fierce and aggressive than usual. Your anger grows with time, reaching the point where you jump after the bat with a snarl. You're so focused on the creature that you don't notice a rock in your path and trip over it painfully and watch as the bat flies away. -5 HP
Kill This bat is faster and stronger than usual due to the influence of magic, but you are no ordinary wolf. It's not a challenge at all! The body of the bat feels peculiar to the touch, yet somehow refreshing. +5% Energy
Dispatching the creature only proves that your skills have improved with the new energies flowing beneath your skin. You hold onto the dead bat in your mouth for a moment, enjoying your victory, but it begins to make your mouth tingle and you let it fall to the ground. -5% Energy


While the deer is undoubtedly dead, its afflicted body seems to possess a life of its own with red, glowing veins and growths that appear to move. It looks like it's breathing! Spooky.
Investigate It's not wise to touch meat like this. Even if it smells tasty, the outcomes of eating it could be unpredictable. Instead, you decide to poke around the carcass to see if there's anything to find. The scent of the changed deer is still familiar, but a hint of something unknown and hostile lingers around its body even after death. You manage to find something useful tucked underneath the twisted carcass. +3 ME

Eat You know it's risky, but you'll never know if you don't try. You decide not to worry until something bad happens. The taste is similar to what you expect, but the true difference is felt after it settles in your stomach. A wave of warmth goes through your body, refreshing it as if you just woke up from a good nap. +2 ME
+5 HP
As soon as you take a bite, you regret it. The meat tastes good at first, but that little bite sends a painful sensation through your entire body. It's best to leave it alone. +1 ME

Whoa! If death could walk, it would be this thing… and it's locked on you!
Battle N/A Automatic battle encounter with Corrupted Abomination


A huge, dead tree appears to scratch the sky with its distorted, twisted branches that resemble clawed hands. Its exposed roots give the impression that the tree i in the midst of stepping out of the ground. Maybe it really is alive...?
Rest While the appearance of this tree isn't very inviting, it does seem like a calm place. You relax among the protruding roots and close your eyes for a brief moment. When you wake up, you realize that your slept longer than you intended, but it was certainly refreshing. You have an odd feeling that the pleasant dream you had about your fur being caressed and groomed wasn't just a dream. The clawed branches seemed to have changed positions while you slept. How odd. +2 ME
+1 Random Amusement Item
While it might seem like an unusual place to relax, it's just a tree. There's nothing here that can truly harm you, right? Initially you feel at ease among the exposed roots, but the longer you stay the more exhausted you feel. The exhaustion begins to settle over you like a heavy blanket, and you struggle to stay awake. You have to get away before you pass out! +1 ME
-5% Energy
Dig Surely an extraordinary place must be hiding extraordinary things. You detect a faint scent above the layer of dirt and dried leaves. Whoever thought that the tree might scare potential visitors, was wrong--a little tree doesn't scare you. Score! +3 ME

You begin to dig with enthusiasm, expecting to uncover something as rare and intriguing as the tree itself. Suddenly, the root of the tree under your paw begins to move! You initially ignore it, but when a wave of short, sharp pain shoots through your body, you jump away in fear. The tree slapped you like an annoying bug!

You warily approach a deep hole, pelt prickling. The water inside this hole has a reddish tone and appears oddly dense...just like blood. Is it even possible for water to look like blood? Even the hole itself doesn't appear entirely natural, and more like someone dug it. You're almost certain you notice movement right beneath the surface, too.
Hunt It takes a while and a good bit of patience, but when the strange shadow apears near the surface again, you catch it quickly. However, as you scoop it out with a paw, it stops moving completely and you notice some missing body parts. This fish shouldn't be alive in the first place, much less able to swim around +2 ME

Investigate Whatever dwells in this water can't be edible. You decide to sniff around the area instead. You catch an unfamiliar scent and notice pawprints on the ground, much smaller than yours. They lead to a small hiding spot, covered with pebbles. +3 ME

You're not really interested in the water; its smell is strange, and you feel sick at the mere thought of eating anything that lives there. The surrounding area, however, is worth checking out. You notice claw marks on the ground and the bony remains of someone's meal. There's something else here as well. +3 ME

The bitter taste makes you sneeze and take a few steps back. You regret touching this cursed liquid, and you can already tell that you'll regret that sip later. Illness: Diarrhea

The silhouette of a deer looks both familiar and a bit unsettling, and you can't quite pinpoint why at first. As the deer turns to face you, you notice its eye sockets are hollow while its glowing red eyes stare malevolently from its antlers. It's as if the creature can see into your soul.
Staring contest The deer keeps staring at you as if it is waiting for you to make the slightest bit of movement. Maybe it can't see you as long as you don't move? You decide to accept the challenge, which ends up being a lot harder than you thought it would be. When you're close to giving up, the deer shakes its head and turns away, leaving you alone. Now you can explore this area in peace. +2 ME

The deer seems to remain calm as long as you stay still. Can it see you at all? You stare back, holding your breath, and stilling your mind. It isn't as easy as it seems; the deer is patient and focused, like a predator. You recognize the look: the gaze of a hunter. You take a step back by accident, which triggers the deer to charge at you without warning. You're lucky to be agile and experienced; it could have ended much worse, but you manage to escape. +1 ME
-4 HP
Growl You have some doubts, but as the deer takes a step forward, you bare your teeth and let out a low, beastly growl. It seems unfazed, staring at you so intensely you lose the ability to move at all. Unable to react under the hypnosis, you stand helplessly as the deer kicks and spits at you. It's only after it walks away that you are able to move again. +1 ME

You stop mid-step when you feel a strange, energizing sensation. While everything around looks normal, you definitely feel different here. The air feels refreshing, and even just standing here makes you feel better.

Look around There's nothing that catches your attention, but you have a strong feeling that you should seek out the sensation.

Following the sensation was worth your time! +2 ME

The creature in front of you appears to be just a giant spider. As you look closer, you realize its head resembles a human skull, emitting a constant, unsettling hissing sound. What a nightmare! There is no way to go forward without catching its attention.
Attack You decide to kill the creepy thing. If you had fire, you'd kill it with fire, but teeth and claws will have to do! One good chomp at the web and few strong poundings and the disgusting creature is dead. It twitches grossly as it dies and you look away. You notice something on the ground, having fallen from the destroyed web. How did it get there? +2 ME
+1 Random 4-Use Carcass
You shiver, and the hair on your neck stands stiff when you crunch down on the spider in order to kill it. It fights back, wiggling so much it bites you on the muzzle! Disgusted and scared you let it go with dismay. It looks like something fell off of the trembling web, at least. +2 ME

You notice something oddly-shaped attached to an overhang of a rather tall eroded cliff. What the heck is it? It's not a natural object, somebody definitely made this.

The familiar silhouette of a bear appears in front of you. It's Herb with his cubs, enjoying a special night together. While he looks a bit tired, his cubs are more than eager to trick or treat with you, trying to appear scary with their costumes. However, no matter what they do, they are just incredibly cute.
Trick You don't have anything to offer but you still want to play with the cubs, so you pretend to be deathly afraid of them. The cubs waste no time, and their 'trick' turns out to be quite simple. They pounce on you, knocking you down and nipping at you playfully. In that moment, you begin to understand the weariness in their father's tired eyes. +1 ME
Treat* You approach the cubs with a convincingly scared expression, engaged in their game. You offer them a delicious treat of a(n) [Critter Carcass] from your hoard, smiling as they almost dance with joy. +2 ME
Notes
* This option only appears if you have food in your hoard. Option takes one food item from your hoard, with the lowest uses and soonest-to-rotting time.


A big tree appears to be hunched over your path. It looks a bit knotted and hollow inside, as if somebody twisted strings and strands in place of the trunk.
Dig around it You decide the openings are too small to shove your head into and dig around the roots to find anything that could be hidden. After just few minutes of digging, you actually find something! +1 ME
+1 Random Amusement Item
Fearing your head would be stuck in the holes, you try your luck with the soft ground around the roots instead. A short while of digging doesn't uncover much, but you are able to take something home at least! +1 ME

You yelp, surprised by glowing eyes in the openings of a tall effigy. It looks alive and rustles a bit. Since when did the stick-forms move?
Poke You approach the odd construct and lean closer and closer with your nose to take a small whiff... until it moves! You freeze and look up, seeing the red, blinking eyes inside. Suddenly, the entire thing falls on you, covering you in straw and sticks! It's eating you alive! Or... maybe it just fell apart. Oops. +1 ME
+2% Energy
Grab a Piece You crouch low to the ground and open your mouth, freezing every time the construct rustles. Finally, you wait until it's quiet and grab a massive piece sticking out! You jerk back, hoping for a jackpot and the entire construct falls apart! You stand there, with a piece in your mouth and a ruined mouse nest in front of you. That explains the eyes. +3 ME
You crawl as slowly as possible towards it, watching as the construct rustles loudly every time you get close. You grab a piece and jerk it out, making the massive effigy creak and lean over you menacingly! You run away with a big piece in your mouth! +2 ME
You gently approach the construct, but it rustles and moves violently when you get too close! It looks scary, as if it could grab you... So you grab it first! You pull out a small piece and run for your life! +1 ME


You can't believe your eyes at first. What appears to be a large black stallion turns out to be some sort of nightmarish monster. Its ribcage is grotesquely exposed, glowing with a molten, lava-like substance that oozes from its open sides. Not exactly as appetizing as you had hoped.
Growl You don't want the creature to get any closer to you. You bare your teeth, rooting yourself in place and growling in warning. However, instead of intimidating the creature, it seems more infuriated than before! With a strange, head-piercing shriek, it rushes at you, intent on killing you. You are lucky to be fast enough, and manage to escape. +3 ME
-1 HP
Follow You manage to hide before the creature notices you. Are there more horses like this? Or is it the only one wandering around? You try to follow the creature, but its path appears random, as if it's wandering without a purpose. After following it for a while, you notice that it never stops to forage or drink like a normal horse. It only seems intent on following its random path. You duck around a bush, and when you look back, the stallion has disappeared into thin air. Had it even been real? +1 ME

You stumble upon a desolate field, with only the wind howling between the destroyed remains of crops. A dark, tall shadow is guarding this forgotten place. You recognize the figure as a scarecrow, but this one is different. A skeletal silhouette with a pumpkin for a head appears to follow your every step, and the grotesque grin on its face feels sentient. Did it just move?
Knock the pumpkin down Attack is the best defense; it has always worked for you, and it should work this time. You don't want to wait until this thing moves on its own again. You jump at the skeletal silhouette with a snarl, knocking the entire scarecrow down. As soon as the pumpkin rolls away, the strange force keeping the creature alive disappears. You destroy the pumpkin even more, just to make sure it's smashed into pieces. +2 ME
+1 Random Herb
After you step sideways a few times to confirm it, there is no doubt that the scarecrow can move on its own. Your pelt prickles ominously. The pumpkin appears to be the main source of its life force so with a short bark, you jump at the creature, aiming for the head. To your surprise, it doesn't fall off, and the grin on its surface slowly changes into an expression that makes your stomach churn. You're lucky that the scarecrow is quite slow, and you can easily escape before its bony arm reaches you. +1 ME


Without warning, a strange red mist envelopes you and you have no chance to observe where it came from. Your breathing isn't affected, but the air feels oddly sticky in your lungs.

You run for a bit before you can't hold your breath anymore, and stumble upon a place full of interesting sticks and strings as you catch your breath. +2 ME


The familiar sound of rain is usually soothing, but the bloody red drops that fall from the sky set you on edge. Though you know it's water from the smell, the crimson hue of red puddles forming on the ground is unsettling.
Feel it on your fur You wag your tail, looking up. Rain is always good fun! You stretch a bit and stomp around in puddles, enjoying a fun moment before you have to head back. The deep, dark colour of the puddles sticks to your paw pads, but strangely they feel much healthier and sturdier than before! +2 ME

Two empty eye sockets of an abnormally large human skull peer at you maliciously. As you move closer, you realize that it's just an odd-shaped rock. It doesn't make the rock any less creepy; the resemblance is just too close.
Check it out The stone skull is scary enough that a lesser animal would run in fear. You're no pushover, though. When a brave wolf like you appears, nothing stays hidden for long! You sniff around the stone, checking both dark eye sockets carefully. You knew it! There is something hidden in one of them! +2 ME

You stop in your tracks, startled by seeing a face when there shouldn't be one here at all. After taking another look, it appears to just be an odd, bulbous growth on a tree, creating the illusion of a face.

An intricate construction is impaled on a rock in a sturdy way. It's not that big--perhaps you could even detach it? Or decorate it more?
Add a piece* You decide to add the coolest, most twisted piece of wood from your collection and attach it at the base. Now the effigy looks even cooler! When you step back, you notice something on the ground, as if your offering has been accepted and you have been rewarded. But that's absurd, right? +3 ME
Steal it You decide to steal the effigy. It's just too pretty! It crumbles into pieces but you walk away with the coolest bits! +2 ME

Two wolf silhouettes in front of you are familiar even with the costumes. As you approach, you recognize Tala and Egg, enjoying a special night together. Egg’s sides are adorned with fake spider legs, looking realistic enough to send a chill down your spine. Tala is dressed as a ghost, but it's more cute than scary, making you smile.
Trick With a snicker, you jump at them from behind, apologizing for not having any treats for the spooky monsters. Tala laughs in delight and draws nearer, playfully whispering a silent 'boo' right into your ear! In that same instant, a sudden pinch of pain shoots through your ankle. You turn to Egg, eyes wide with surprise, but she simply shrugs it off, casually explaining that you should have expected a spider to bite. +2 ME
-1 HP
Treat You surprise the pair by being prepared for this scenario, and give them both treats. Egg looks disappointed. She's clearly far more into tricking others than treating them, as is evidenced by her significantly smaller bag of treats. On the other hand, Tala graciously thanks you with a warm smile, promising to spare you when the haunting hour arrives. +1 ME
+1 Random Herb
Join When you propose the idea of going together, Tala's eyes light up and she wags her tail with excitement. On the other hand, you can practically hear Egg rolling her eyes in response. She eventually agrees, noting that at least you don't need a costume and their chances for treats could rise significantly. Tala gives her a side-eye, but it doesn't change her attitude at all. This spider costume is fitting, it seems. +1 ME

You did not expect to find something so unusual on this well-tread path. A twisted, dead tree is curving in an unnatural way, filling you with unease.

The smell of this pumpkin field is so intense and intriguing that you ignore the spooky atmosphere it creates. Most of the pumpkins are in various stages of decay and their mixed scents are driving you crazy.
Roll Maybe you're weird, but if it's fun who cares? You embrace your inner puppy, jumping into the pumpkins and rolling among them for so long that your fur catches all of the different smells, not to mention the messy appearance. You regret nothing! +1 ME
Dig You're sure there must be something interesting in such an extraordinary place. Your nose doesn't help much with the intense smell of the pumpkins, but searching is more fun than anything. When you aren't so focused on finding something, you actually stumble upon a treasure! Funny how that works. +3 ME
Eat You have no idea why you expected anything other than the taste of a rotten, moldy plant. It's absolutely repulsing, but a strange feeling runs down your spine seconds after swallowing a bite. You expect to feel sick, but to your surprise the rotten taste disappears and you feel...refreshed! +4 HP

You're used to dark forests and all kinds of noises that they bring, but this place feels different and eerie. You feel observed not by one, but many sets of eyes, that follow your every movement. Shadowy silhouettes dance in the corners of your eyes but when you try to look at them, they vanish and reappear to haunt you from a different spot.
Bark You bare your teeth at first and when that doesn't work, you let out a sharp bark. Your voice is carried by the wind and echoes among the trees as if you are alone here. To your surprise, you don't feel observed anymore, and the forest feels more familiar... for now. +2 ME
Chase You try to remain calm, but each time a shadowy shape appears somewhere nearby, your steely demeanor crumbles. Finally you've had enough, and with a low growl, you start to chase the shadows whenever you notice one. It's impossible to catch them, and they are definitely playing a game, luring you deeper into the forest. Too late, you realize you are tired and hungry when you manage to escape. +3 ME

A mesmerizing, emerald glow beckons from a distance, capturing your attention. When you move closer, you see strange orbs floating above the surface of a shallow lake. You watch as the green flames dance in the air soundlessly. After a while, you notice that everything is abnormally silent, as if this area is a bubble of an alternate dimension.
Go into the water Fascinated by this magical scenery, you take a step further...and further. You realize that you are quite far away when the water suddenly covers your back. What happened? You can't remember anything between noticing the flames and regaining the clarity of your mind. It's best to get back to dry ground. +1 ME

The cold, gaping maw of this cave isn't as dark as you expect it to be. A green, unsettling glow can be seen on the rocks inside. Drawing nearer, you notice ethereal, half-transparent silhouettes drifting soundlessly above your head, seemingly oblivious to your presence. At least for now.
Try to communicate with them You aren't sure if these ghosts are spirits of the dead or the damned ones. As soon as you start to speak, all of them turn to you, as if they have only just noticed you. They don't talk back, approaching silently with their arms outstretched in your direction. They can't harm or even touch you physically, but the longer you stand there, the weaker you feel. You should probably go before they drain all of your energy. +3 ME

Sniff Curiosity wins over tentativeness and you shove your nose to smell the flower. You just have to learn about this new species! Does it eat insects? Maybe mice?
