Reanimated meat are humanoid atrocities that have been cast aside midway through some mad experiment, leaving them in a state of living death and unending pain. Insatiable Hunger These unfortunate creatures suffer an insatiable hunger, as their body attempts to reconstruct what it once was. What vitality was stolen from them in the mad Flesh Pits of Shang Tsung, they are determined to get back even if it means feeding on the flesh of the living. In combat, their intestines will even burst out from their stomachs, entangling opponents and drawing them closer so that the meat may feed upon them. Shattered Mind. Meat are often an amalgamation of various corpses that has been reanimated but left in an incomplete state, both physically, and mentally. Aside from their hunger for flesh, these creatures hunger for their lost memories and identity. Unable to find it, meat begin to form a new identity, using what little life energy they have managed to recover, they will begin to mimic the individuals they come into conflict with, stealing their magic and appearance to regain some sense of identity, even for a short while. |
