Garret's Weaknesses

Tummy Acher Weakness List

Garret's five lethal triggers now include Sylvan crystal, hobgoblin sweat, rivenwing bite, undead flesh, and Reaper Gaze.

Story so far

Each time Garret regenerates, his description adds one weakness. Before the Capitol reset, the list contains four: contact with Sylvan crystal, consuming hobgoblin sweat, a rivenwing's bite, and eating undead flesh.

Ren says undead flesh is the most likely accidental killer because Tummy Achers eat almost anything. Hobgoblin contamination must also be avoided in food.

After the fifth regeneration, the system adds Reaper Gaze. Neither Ren nor Carl knows what this effect is, making it the most urgent identification task.

Appearance

Five warning icons around a round pet: crystal, sweat drop, winged bite, undead meat, and an ominous eye.

Role

The list defines the care protocol necessary to keep Carl's inherited pet alive.

Relationships

Garret — Every listed trigger can kill him.
Knife of Frozen Tears — Its material deliberately activates the first weakness.
Reaper Gaze — This unknown condition is the newest entry.
Carl — He must inspect the description and avoid all triggers.
