The wiki says that [GNAWER] indicates that this creature can chew on food containers.

*the [PENETRATEPOWER] tag

Obviously the wiki needs correcting.

Can we give non-vermin creatures the [GNAWER] tag? Dragons ought to be able to escape a wooden cage.

Hmm...I've never been a big fan of CCGs - I mean, I did and still do collect Pokemon cards, but I never got heavily into the battling and trading thing.

By definition that makes you a fan since you still buy them.

coolish, give all creatures this tag ffs. a giant lion is no exception when it comes to wooden cages.. is the gnawer tag just a tag or can you specify value as well? like gnawer:999, gnaws through adamant ^^

No, the only value you can put into seems to be a word. From the rat definition: [GNAWER:gnawed]

Im pretty sure gnawed is just the adjective that it uses for some hidden message which you'll never see.

Probably the cage will turn into a "gnawed cage".
