Nah, I3P7 established it’s just an Arachnomancer thing to drink the blood of sacrifices. Likely in homage to how spiders inject caustic venom into prey to liquefy them before consumption.
Lara can probably do both now. Those are some impressive-looking fangs, I’d be surprised if she had to stick with a liquid diet. This has game implications for whether steak (or raw meat) is a healing item.

One thing I’m curious about: Do wands count as weapons for Cordy? If not, a ranged attack on him would be nice.
Nope, wands are item type Wand. This is also why using a wand doesn’t impact the Monk Robes which give +2 Atk/Def when not using weapons or shields. They are still attacks, so Botanya can’t use wands offensively.
Ranged attacks rarely permit attacking without consequence, but we did get good use of them early on for controlling enemy targeting. Not as important on Cordy who is a tank and semi immortal. There’s a handful of cases where ranged attacks are the only option, but for those we just need one person in the party.
And I think in D&D universe most people (unless the char explicitly took a “trait” that negates it) can read and write, so at least Lara will still be able to communicate in some way with the rest of the party members. But I’ll miss her snarky/wry comments (and anything else she’d say).
Maybe they can eventually figure out some kind of sign language, for times when no paper and quill and ink is around (and Ricki can translate it for us, the readers)?
May the juices-sucking begin.
I3P5: “She’s here to drink our fluids!!”
whoever said it might actually have future-visions skill,just undeveloped
..and that was Lohk.. coincidence?

Coccyx: “…did you two get haircuts?”
Oh man, Lara can’t talk anymore? Damn, that sucks
No more talking, singing, zip.
Love that quote! 😀

miss snarky comments?
remember Wile E Coyote and his boardsigns? 😀
Macadamia has the most “that must have been a wild date” look ever.
