As part of the Beast’s reaction to the Miner’s presence, its bowels secrete a special antacid that exobiologists have termed Dyspepto-Beastmol. Should they come in close contact with it, an enterprising Miner may use it as a temporary boost to power more actions. However, if dislodged from its naturally occurring sources, it will disperse and enhance the Beast’s Immune Responses. —description from the publisher
