(View - Edit Notes )Notes

  • Makes it easier to butcher humans remains, or eat human flesh.
  • You start with a cookbook called To Serve Man in your inventory that contains recipes using human meat. This can overencumber you.
  • Removes -60 morale penalty for eating human flesh, and replaces it with one of the following:
    • When eating human meat, human bone marrow or food with human flesh in it, you gain a morale bonus of +10 for 50 turns.
    • If combined with Spiritual or Psychopath, this changes to a morale bonus of +15 for 200 turns.
    • If combined with Spiritual AND Psychopath, this changes to a morale bonus of +25 for 300 turns!
    • Ferals are counted as humans
  • This trait also allows the player to butcher corpses without a morale penalty.
  • Aside from the meat and human bone marrow obtained from humans, butchering human corpses can also net the player a supply of human bones for early tools and weapons, such as bone shivs as an early cutting damage weapon if you lack a knife suited for combat and bone needles for sewing.
