Ah.

You could have made the description a bit more clear.

(Roll for drift = 7 = west)

Err....EAT SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T GIVE OFF GOOD ELECTRO-VIBES i.e. something neutral or non-friendly.
Electrocute it first if necessary.

[4-1] You don't possess the capability to electrocute things just quite yet. You sense something coming in from the distance, though.

Seek out plants. Munch on them.
[10-1] You find some rather large plants on the seafloor, you get tangled up in them!

Let eye-patch(es) adjust to light.
[5-1] You successfully adjust to the light. (If an effect is on a timer, you don't need to resist it if it's about to fade anyway. You can fight longer ones, though.) You drift westward.

Reproduce. Feed. Repeat.
[9] You bud out a second one of your kind! They are now both hungry. They drift westward.

Move quickly and try to find a dimmer place with safety.
[10-1] You move quickly down to the plants and get tangled up in them!

be mildly surprised at echolocation failure, whoosh off to seek food.
[6-1] (They didn't fail, they just didn't offer any effects yet.) You find a chunk of flesh drifting down.

Try to use my limited sensing to find a small creature that isn't one of us to latch onto and feed off of.
[7] You sense some new creature coming in from the east, and head over to investigate.

Ratchet up the photosynthesis a bit. Hope there's enough carbon dioxide around to make bank.
[6+1] You absorb some more light, you gain 1 Vigor!

Seek Plant Life, Consume Plant Life. If any smaller living entities are found, eat them. It's survival of the fittest.
[8-1] You find some flesh drifting down, and plenty of plants. You take a bite out of some drifting flesh and gain 1 Vigor!

Swim about aimlessly, dissolving and eating any edible things in my path. If possible, reproduce.
[9] You spit at the nearest thing!

Feed. Grow. Attempt to locate some other member of my species and reproduce a good bit.
[1] You get splashed by corrosive spit!

Swim and try to find some smaller one-celled organisms to "absorb."
[4-1] The closest organism to you is the Lysot that spat on the Verdadrak.


An Alentia drifts in from the east.




Events:

D10 = 3 = No unusual happens.

Elephant (Elephant Parade): Tangled (Can't move.)

Effects that are timed will burn out eventually, but you can still fight them. If they have no time, they must be fixed in some way.
Vigor can be spent on actions to give a +1 to them, some vigorous actions may require Vigor to work.

Oh look, I have a steam account.
Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

...Shouldn't a 9 be a success?

Eat my way out of the plants.

10 is an overshoot, penalty or not.

Nibble on some plant life or eat some meat, for we must be healthy!

((Hey mastahcheese, can you include the color of each species in their profile so I know who's who?))

Filter feed. When not hungry, reproduce.

Seek out suitable sustenance. Consume suitable sustenance.

The formatting is a bit off at the moment. Maybe something like this?

Hmm, that would look better, and function better, too.
Maybe when I'm feeling non-lazy enough to make the conversion, I'll do it.

Attempt to grip the nearest lump of meat (the one below me on the seafloor), and pull it into my proboscis so that I may feed from it.  If someone tries to eat me, grip them and feed off of them.
