Don't forget the profession: cook skill. You may want to avoid the dangers of under-cooked meat.

Fun fact - mad cow disease cannot be solved by cooking / heat treatment of food. Good thing there is no in game system to simulate it, as eating meat from your own species is a heavy correlation to receiving mad cow disease.

Technically, cannibals are those who consume members of the same species, so you may want to look at consuming half-orce specifically.Have you looked at Kabriri (CE Demon god of Ghouls)?

On a serious note, is your GM and group happy with your characters alignment, religion and 'lifestyle' choice? Does your character fit with the sort of stories that your GM and group wish to tell?


Unless your looking for some specific mechanical benefit, you simply kill people and then eat them. Unless your whole party is evil do not expect that to go over well.


Isles of The Shackles has the Kuru, a race of cannibals, sounds disgusting personally.


If you want actual mechanical benefits for cannibalism, I think half-orc summoners have an archetype for it.


There's also the Raging Cannibal archetype.

While not for wizards, there's also Enemy's Heart.


Wizards can learn spells from the blood of dead casters: Blood transcription

If you want to get skeletons by Animate Dead and not zombies, it makes (macabre) sense to eat the flesh yourself.

Finally, dhampirs have some feats for drinking blood: Blood Drinker and the three based on it.


Also blood biography. And create treasure map. Lots of useful spells if you're butchering corpses anyway. You could live probably exclusively off treasure map for gear as you hop around.


You could play a Scarred Witch Doctor Witch and take Cook People as a Major Hex. Start with Cauldron and cook people to begin with, and gain mechanical benefit when you are higher level.

Scarred Witch Doctor keys of CON, making it pretty hardy as far as full casters go.


The sin eater inquisitor could fit as well with appropriate fluff.

Soylent green is a perfectly valid choice for calories.

Well, that's a surprise. I must have missed the entire ARG errata. Still a decent archetype with a build in +2 INt, 21-22 Int at level one is sweet as a half-orc.

With a few ranks in knowledge (engineering) and enough gunpowder, all of your dreams are possible.

How are you getting 21-22 Int at level 1?

Technically, cannibals are those who consume members of the same species, so you may want to look at consuming half-orce specifically.

But they also count as Human and Orc. So...


Just need a gnome in black full plate.

Maybe I want to be a reusable cannonball!

Oh dear, you should have been more specific. But hey, at least you'll have an interesting story to tell Pharasma!

How are you getting 21-22 Int at level 1?

You take a starting int of 18. You take +2 floating stat boost from Half-Orc to Intelligence.

Then, Scarred Witch Doctor gets the following ability:

Fierce Intelligence

A scarred witch doctor treats her Intelligence score as 2 points higher when determining the highest level of spells she can cast, the number of spells she can cast per day, her spell save DCs, her number of spells known at 1st level, and any effects of her hexes determined by her Intelligence.

That is 22 Int for the purposes of spellcasting. The only thing you do not get is the skill point and the extra language upon character creation.
