| This amulet allows its wearer to eat fresh raw meat when not hungry, and drastically increases nutrition you can get from them. These effects on the wearer's digestion are cumulative over time and are initially small.
“Gringoire put out his hand for the little bag, but she drew back. 'Do not touch it! It is an amulet, and either you will do mischief to the charm, or it will hurt you.'” |
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. Once it fully activates, contaminated chunks have the nutritional value of clean ones. The activation time is approximately 400 turns.
If you are a ghoul it will instead transform all clean or contaminated chunks into rotting 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.
