Monster congestion like that is called a 'zoo'.  I think some machine-run
person in the dungeon named 'David' handles all the zoos.  They're similar
to shops.

I believe eating a nurse puts you to max hp.  It also aggravates all monsters
on the current level.

A sharpened worm tooth becomes a crysknife.  See DUNE for more details.
