A skim of dark, congealing blood slicks the features of the raw-boned halfling.  Her eyes are black as burnt coals and feverish with single-minded hunger, a hunger that has burnt away every last shred of fat from her body and left behind only knotted sinew.  The cannibal's teeth are sharpened to jagged points, and from between them darts a tiny pink tongue that is constantly tasting the air.  She wears tattered, weather-eaten remains of furs and homespun fabric.  They, too, are soaked red with blood.

Hunting Strategies

General Advice
  • Despite being the lowest level creature in the Hinterwilds, cannibals can't be underestimated or ignored, especially if the Boreal Forest has started filling up. Cannibals' namesake biting maneuver can be lethal if its standard maneuver roll gets a significant bonus from other creatures in the area stunning or otherwise disabling a character. Cannibals also take advantage of stealth, which means they can get stance pushdown from ambush mechanics in situations where you might never have seen them coming. As such, even in cases where relatively low-mana-cost AoE spells like Censure (316), Elemental Wave (410), or Grasp of the Grave (709) might seem unnecessary for the number of visible creatures, sometimes they can still be helpful in revealing the invisible threat of cannibals.
