Basically, I tried to see if I could do a version of Max's hack, except targeting corpses.
You're gonna need to raise and then have them die immediately.
I tried to use this:
[REACTION:EXTRACT_MEAT_ADV]
[NAME:extract meat]
[ADVENTURE_MODE_ENABLED]
[REAGENT:A:1:CORPSE:NONE:NONE:NONE][USE_BODY_COMPONENT][PRESERVE_REAGENT]
[PRODUCT:100:3:MEAT:NONE:GET_MATERIAL_FROM_REAGENT:A:NONE]
[SKILL:DODGING]
As a workaround, I kept it because wild animals can't butcher targets without carrying weapons around, and while I did give the predator body plans [GRASP] tags on the back teeth it's silly for a giant lion to roam around using a sword instead of their teeth and claws, but being able to "tear a hunk of meat" out of your kills worked for me.
Very tempted to play as a random animal now.

Back at Spiregems, the trade depot appears to be reconstructing itself. During insurrection they always implode into one tile holding the majority of the offered items, however now without any ownership tags. The first image involves the tile that holds all the items without ownership. The second involves the recently spawned $ownership$ items scattered along the periphery. Don't quite remember if this is part of a bug.

Bim exits Spiregems, ignoring the human army that's gathered westward and crutchwalks south over the mountain range heading for Metwars where he masters a useful (agility stat gains!) yet useless skill (never going to need a crutch).
He reaches the human town of Metwars---the southernmost town in this world. He also makes his first kill as he's running out of food: a wild boar.
Bim leaves a few things in the first abandoned house he finds; many of the structures on the outskirts of town are uninhabited.

Having become drowsy, Bim goes to sleep, but this is awoken by an unknown NPC. Could be an animal recruit, a bandit, or some sort of night creature. He's stunned and waits out the effect. No reason to engage at debuffed half-strength (proficient dodger/observer would drop to competent/adequate vs. a potential lvl 6). It's better to pass time to create distance, letting whatever wander off, so the encounter can be held on the best terms.
Turns out to be a spouse of a winged troll and with a name like Fidale, a former elf—useful checking spouse names against the language files.
It's straightforward. Easy enough to ground with a scratch, and since it's only a spouse (also elf/dwarf/gobbo sized), easy enough to outgrip/out-muscle with an average size dwarf's high strength.
Interestingly enough, Bim only has the reaction of fear after experiencing trauma. It's odd since he's only seen the deaths of 7 non sentients and 1 dwarf. Also the lessening of degree. Usually with a character that's reached "doesn't care about anything anymore" you'd get
great fear after experiencing
great trauma. I suspect Bim had a shift right after watching the performance as that's the last time the adjective great appears in the express emotions menu. Probably didn't get enough out of the booze since the euphoria is just standard, and thereafter every other experience is just standard. All conjecture of course.
