When I first heard it would be a battle royale I didn't think he would do very well-- but torbek is a scavenger, he eats scraps out of dumpsters, he won't ENJOY picking at dead bodies, but it's not really cannibalism for HIM or more heinous than other things he has had to eat.

He's used to being starved, he's proficient in sneaking about and climbing and with his ten ft reach he probably would have an easier time grabbing fruit and such.

SO! he might genuinely have a shot at surviving this (even though mechanically I know its RNG)

I think he would help people with that at least, start off by helping people get fruit, resorting to gnawing bones only when it finally gets too dire and he outlives any safety nets he forms

Torbek won't kill if he can help it, which might upset the scientists if he wins in spite of that ;> but I also think being one of the few things around that ISN'T human kind of makes him a target to be hunted as wild game himself so he'll probably have some self defense fights

Tawna and Torbek shake hands

both visibly non-humans juking around wildly

YESSS it's so great to be a nonhuman for this. I LOVE everyone will see them on screen too so even if they survive there's just some extra scare factor to them now

I feel I should also tell you that even though Torbek has no power his blood is still a fae cocaine/super soldier serum concoction so if he DOES fail the rng and get bit by a zombie... you as mods technically have the option of making your zombies even more roided out from ingesting it, if that interests you

probably just longer claws, more aggro, faster like the second form of resident evil zombies. thanks Torbek!
