Cannibals aren't just mere brutes. They are brutes with a passion for cooking.

The gist is to allow cannibals to turn corpses into more civilized meals and maybe even get some profits!

How should we get meat?

  • KILL!, though having every other faction as your enemy may not be sustainable...
    • Despite the above, scavenging fields of recent battles for corpses should be way less outrageous
  • Rob graveyards and morgues; easier, but don't moan about the quality
    • Or just try negotiating w/ the police or grave keepers and maybe they will let you have a nice, fresh body.

How to cook? - It should be rather simple, be a cannibal, take a body to the kitchen, interact with chopping board/oven etc. and get to work.

  • Your skills are limited at first, but you can expand your skills in making meals (perfect idea for a cannibal only skill tree?)
  • If you want you can also take a body to a better chef than you and (for a humble payment) they will use their skills and satiate your appetite.

Profits?

  • Compared to the classic Cannibalize ability, meals would be food items - time saving
  • More health than by cannibalizing bodies (even if only after unlocking a proper trait or recipes)
  • Additional status effects? - high tier meals (famous ribs?) could grant you e.g. Strength for some time.
  • Business opportunity? - Imagine if cannibals could set up grill bars/diners where they would serve their products (w/o disclosing the secrets, of course).
  • Too illegal? Be real, if the city gets its share then everything can pass.

Potential recipes?

  • Minced Man (Cannibal friendly equivalent of Fud)
  • Famous Ribs (Top tier)
  • Buttock Ham (Middle tier)
  • Visceral Stew (Middle/High Tier)

Etc. - Potential full "Cookbook" would be very vast.

Wish I’d thought if this earlier but you should get exp and occasionally convert people into cannibals if you trick them into eating human meat.
