Consumers break the taboo against eating the flesh of the fallen. Eating the body parts of their slain foes lets them gain a measure of their power and knowledge. Some consumers see absorbing the potency of the defeated as the fastest way to power, some are driven by long-ago trauma that manifests as a compulsion to dine upon their enemies, while others simply lack the empathy to understand why such an act repulses most right-thinking people.

To choose this expert path, you must be a living creature that can eat.

Devour Once per day, you can perform a ceremony over the remains of one living creature killed by you or a member of your group. You must complete the ritual within 6 hours of the creature’s death, and the ritual takes 1 hour to perform. If you finish the ritual and spend 10 minutes eating the desecrated flesh, you gain a benefit depending on the body part you eat (see the Body Parts Benefits table for details). The benefit lasts until you complete a rest.
Resist Ghoul Curse The ceremony you perform as part of your Devour talent protects you from becoming a ghoul. If you use your Devour talent to consume a creature that shares your ancestry, you do not roll a d6 to see if you become a ghoul. However, each time you gain Corruption, you must roll a d6 to see if you become a ghoul.
