DESCRIPTION
Jikininki are cannibalistic undead found in Japanese legend. Unlike other undead,
Jikininki have great difficulty in concealing their true nature. Normally, a
Jikininki appears to be a decomposing corpse even if it's been dead for only a
few hours. As such, all Jikininki normally have an Appearance of zero. A Jikininki
can alleviate this penalty for a scene, by spending a Divinity point and restoring
his appearance to whatever it was before death. Jikininki have all the normal
characteristics of the undead template, but are more agile than usual, adding
+2 Finesse.
Jikininki regain Divinity by devouring the bodies of recently deceased mortals,
at a rate of one point of Divinity per point of Stamina the deceased had in life.
When the Jikininki's meal is a Avatar, he additionally gains Divinity equal to the
late Avatar's Divinity rating.
