Mechanic: Cannibalism 2.0

[OgreTV]

Once upon a time, thread like this existed on old forums, before a clumsy hacker deleted this suggestion, along with the rest of the old forums.

So here we are again, to suggest a mechanic that could change the dynamic of Civ and Cop interactions within beautiful Kavala..

Ogre is suggesting a mechanic that restores health and water at the cost of another person's health. How it works is if person is restrained, you could do just about anything you want with them.. Is it impossible to consider that kidnapper can slowly kill their captive over time? 

Cannibalism charges wrack up per action. It could be instant or a channeled mechanic that takes some time. Each bite restores 25 food and 25 water while taking away anywhere between 25 to 40 health. Consequence of doing so would be an automatic charge applied of Cannibalism which ideally stacks. 

Feedback on previous thread had requirements for the mechanic. One suggested you could only do it outside of towns, similarly to execution. Another suggested it's a very serious and personal crime so the weight should be heavy too, 12,500 per charge like kidnapping. Lastly, another person suggested you require tools, like a skinning knife or something. 

Sadistic human being, Hungry Cave Ogres, Rabid Dogs or even Zombie roleplayers would benefit from such a mechanic Paratus. Please make this happen?

I think someone said something about they don't really want to reward people for killing, kinda like the organ donation thing. 

Maybe Im wrong.

Suggestion was pretty good, haters gonna hate Ogre.

Instead of fearing the lone crazy bounty hunter looking for an unwilling buddy, or the Kavala Gang looking for trouble, you can now add to your possible threat level a hoard of cannibals kidnapping officers and bambies for a cult style execution. 

Ogre isn't the only one that wants to see this!

This would be amazing.

I think you should have to kill them and skin them though, just like with wild animals. Then cook them over a camp fire before you eat them.
Human cooked meat could even have a buff/debuff similar to how drugs work. 

Not sure about the automatic bounty either: It would be much more interesting if cops had to RP with you, or find human meat in your inventory when they search you, in order to find out that you're a cannibal. Then put any cannibal charges on you manually, in addition to your manslaughter charges.

Interesting counter suggestion, hmm.. Only problem from Ogre's point of view is the lack of automatic charge. There'd have to be a lot of incentive to have human meat on someone other than, like Ogre, to just carry it around and hope an officer finds it on him. Will admit that the prospect is beyond funny, "Alright routine search and, Woah woah what the hell is this? Oh god what did you do Ogre?" "OGRE HAD to have snack...!!!"

Otherwise, the idea of going around harvesting a bunch of dead kavalans for their meat would be Ogre's new hobby. Storing up on illegal meat hah..!!

Nothing wrong with a little recycling of some carcasses, right?

Gotta keep them streets clean.
