Figured it’d be too abusable (I mean when do we have a shortage of corpses?) to add to the main build. Still, maybe parts of it may be added.

Nope, as an item, corpses are just corpses. Other coding makes it obtain its other traits from the creature it comes from and that isn’t something I have the skill to change.

Best I can do is put up some recipes/items using plant marrow/tainted veggy.
