Dirty cannibals
The most passive cannibals. They are dirt-covered, four-legged creatures. In most cases, they will not want to attack you. Instead, they will watch you from a distance. If you approach them, they will run away. Occasionally, they may also throw a rock at you or jump on you.
However, they will attack when provoked. So if you start a fight with them, they will defend themselves . In combat, they are extremely agile opponents who easily dodge blows. The easiest way to counter them is to cut off their limbs. You also need to keep in mind that they are always in a group.
Basic cannibals
The most common type of enemy and at the same time the most human-like. They usually don't move around alone - so if you saw one, there are probably companions in the area.
