After seeing a recent post from @epicawsomeusername I figured I might as well finish up this draft I've had sitting around for two weeks lol
The anatomy of most creatures on my world involves having two stomachs, one for storage (upper) and one for digesting food (lower). The lower stomach is also about half full of water at any given time due to the digestive process for these creatures.
Karma has been able to manipulate this to his favor! Thanks to his high internal body temperature (heat helps him digest better) and the water in his lower gut, he can fill his upper storage stomach with steam. Sauna belly! He keeps the ability in reserve in case any prey want a more relaxing environment for a few minutes. It will ease the tension in their muscles and keep them nice and warm, moreso than usual at least.
I think sauna belly is a nice thing to do for the last couple minutes of holding your prey. Give them a nice massage via kneading while letting them relax in the steam; they come out with very relaxed muscles! Just be sure to cool them off a bit safely afterward-
The upper/lower stomach system is also beneficial if Karma needs to hold a prey for a little while without sacrificing his own nutrition. Might not be the best for the prey cleanliness wise but the prey will be safe and comfortable regardless! Perfect for giving a wounded fren a safe place to recover, or at least avoid further injury if Karma needs time to get them to amedical facility.
Like with all my lore tidbits, I'm more than happy to explain in more depth if anyone wishes. Feel free to ask :3
