Roast Quest

 > Give yourself some eyes.

There's no need! You have an eye right smack dab on the side of your head. You've got skin flaps to protect it from the elements.

> Give yourself some poisonous properties.

> Give yourself some teeth.

You aim for the best of both worlds - your fangs drip with a slow-acting paralytic venom.
You'll probably need more mutations to increase its potency, though.

You've probably hunted all you can in this location. The other meat beetles seem to have scurried off.
In response, you pull open your brainzone's island map.



You haven't seen much of the world yet, but on your southern travels with Mama Critter, you encountered vast swathes of sand. She called them beaches - and advised you to stay away. To the north is the mainland. You've heard massive carnivore settlements called cities exist farther north. You could also explore more of the forest if you feel like you need more protein.

Where should you go, and why?
