I like abstract.

Develop Ingestion juices and proboscis!

Despecialization is another rather strange choice of talent.

Absorb stilet, absorb wings, develop proper moth wings, build many new webs, wait for a prey

No preference r.e. the note.

Develop Ingestion juices and proboscis!

+1 to both.
We'll hopefully have enough energy to cover it all, but if not I'd prioritise the proboscis over the wings over the ingestion juices.

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

-1 to wasting our energy on doing stuff we have no DNA for.

War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.

Check the first page, we have DNA for all those things.

The Proboscis is listed in the latest turn under 'acquired DNA', and not yet the front page, in case that's the source of the confusion.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

You feel your wings and stilet melting away into a strange green goop, which then slowly reforms. While you wait, you start making more webs in the trees. You swing from one branch of another, creating the main line of the web. Then back again, and once more, until the basic structure is complete. Then, filling in the substructure. By the time you're finished with the first web, the goop has retreated to reveal a new proboscis.

As you finish your second web, your wings unfold, and you're once again fully mobile. You're however, now almost critically short on energy, and none of your webs has yet caught anything.




Name:  ???
Energy: 7/42
Biomass: 6.140 cm3
Abilities : DNA assimilation, Epigenetic Tags, Despecialization
Current look: A strange green creature with a chitin chield, about the size of a large insect. It has moth wings, and tiny, almost ineffective legs. It observes the world through it's tiny insectoid eyes, and a long, curling proboscis. Beware it's webs and secretions.

Do we actually have the energy for another physical change?  If we do +1 to the above, if not...

I'll wait till somebody comes up with a better idea  :P
