Amulet of the gourmand
Revision as of 03:19, 23 October 2013 by Ion frigate (talk | contribs) (removing nausea reference. Not changing version tag, because we need to figure out what the effect (if any) is on the nutritional value of contam chunks - are they treated as clean, or is the only benefit now that you can eat them while not hungry?)

| This amulet protects its wearer from sickness due to eating fresh raw meat and allows them to digest it when not hungry, but these effects on the wearer's digestion are cumulative over time and are initially small. |
An amulet of the gourmand lets you consume meat like a carnivore but functions fully only after some time. If you eat meat while it "attunes" you will only gain partial nutrition from any chunks you eat while above "Hungry" level.
If you are a ghoul it will instead transform all clean chunks into contaminated ones making them slightly better for you.
It will not grant the ability to eat meat to spriggans, vampires, mummies, or anyone with three ranks of the herbivore mutation. As trolls already have the gourmand mutation, they will also receive no benefit from the amulet.
