Or, perhaps go the PF2e route and allow the player to tack on a weapon maneuver of choice if their attack roll exceeds the target AC by a certain amount (5?)
Reminds me of how they incorporated weapon type-specific attacks in BG3. Stealing this one for sure.
So far, I've included in my current campaign: a utility belt that holds 3 healing potions allowing them to be used as a bonus action and a totem that allows them to reroll a hit die result of "1" on level up.
It's truly horrific. Once you've seen pigs clambering over each other and screaming in terror as they're lowered into a pit of carbon dioxide, or live chicks being dumped into an industrial macerator, or chickens dying on the floor in their own waste, unable to move due to their size, or newborn calfs being cut out of their mothers and killed in the slaughterhouse, it's impossible to unsee. At the end of the day, I'm glad I have seen it, because I'd rather know what happens than live in ignorance and continue to support these practices.
Agreed. The chicken's closest natural ancestor, the red jungle fowl, would continue to live in the wild. Unlike modern chickens, they only lay around once a month (as opposed to upwards of once a day), and they aren't bred to be excessively large to the point that many can't even walk properly. It would definitely be more humane to let these human made species go extinct.
