Corpsiferous

How about "corpsiferous"? They're definitely carrying a corpse around, it just takss some effort on the part of the PC to extract it from its current awkward-for-eating "living" status.

xanthian, modulo odds of dropping a corpse, of course, so "corpsiferous" is another one of those Schroedinger's Cat thingies -- you don't know if the corpse is really there until you open some arteries; once you do or don't observe it, though, the waveform/lifeform has collapsed.

This is an easter egg from RGRN for anybody with humor ...
