The descriptions are in field idesc of the ItemKind records in directory GameDefinition/Content/, in files ItemKindActor.hs and ItemKindOrgan.hs. Wikipedia is a good source of the biological data. The descriptions are expected to be rather concise and, more or less, justify and colour the stats.
The descriptions are displayed as part of each actor's organ menu @ and also when the cursor is on an actor in targeting mode. The descriptions are also displayed in the info ~ menu, where everything ever seen by the player is available for perusing.
Edit: the descriptions are assumed to be licensed under BSD3. This should spare all of us us any legal headaches when moving content between various free software games based on LambdaHack.

A note: let's try to avoid second person ("you") in descriptions. Let's at most use it for backstory, e.g., in scenario introductions, but not in common items, such as organs or ordinary actors.
