Vermin Description
« on: May 21, 2010, 05:13:22 pm »

One can get a description on normal creatures, but not vermin. Vermin can only be looked at via the "k" menu (which does nothing but the name) or as an item in a cage, but the latter only yields "This is a ____."

Vermin have descriptions in the raws, but there's no way to access them in-game. It'd be helpful to be able to get these descriptions, especially for things like the fluffy wambler.

That would be a very cool thing and hopefully easy to do.

Yeah, I think this was intended but left out as an oversight.  I'm all for it.
