That's them. I went back and checked-- assumed they were mustelidae, they're vividerrae, that'll teach me to speed read. But on the actual subject--

I had this theory about the death toll and Arthas. He feeds on the energy released at death, bonus calories for fear and suffering. But he can do it multiple times with the death toll up-- whatever energy brings us back, resets us, he can eat that. As long as we process it for him first.

I'm looking at traditional ways to get him his fix whenever he's off the barge-- fermentation, the suffering of a million yeast, nice and epic-- but I'm wondering about maybe trying to give him the coffee beans straight, if you get me. Some way to process energy into something he can use without the whole murder thing.
