Stitches and Living flesh are Bosses encountered in Fear & Hunger 2: Termina.
Lore
Stitches has sewn her mouth partially shut and has numerous sewn cuts scattered around her body. She is likely the creator of monstrosities such as the Sew jobs and the Living flesh.
When playing as Daan, there are indications that Stitches resembles his deceased wife, Elise Von Dutch. During the Second Great War, the Von Dutch manor was overtaken by the occult, resulting in a ritual sacrifice of the family members to please the Sulfur God. Daan attempted to resurrect Elise, sacrificing his left eye to do so, but his efforts proved to be in vain. The circumstances of Elise's transformation into Stitches – assuming she is indeed Elise – and how she ended up in Prehevil remain a mystery. It is uncertain whether Stitches still retains any semblance of her former self as Elise or if she is merely a vessel being controlled by some other force, or if her similarity to Elise is a disturbing coincidence.
Location & Behaviour
- Stitches and Living flesh can be found on the first level in Tunnel 1
- Stitches will only appear in the Overworld after picking up one of the gas canisters in Tunnel 1 or if killed

Stitches has a 50% chance each turn to summon Living flesh if it is still alive.Strategy
Fear & Hunger Mode
The best way to deal with Stitches is using any magical attack on the head seeing that her head has 20 HP and 0 magic evasion. if the player does not have magical attacks then Murky vials, Pipe bombs or Gasoline canisters can work.
Masoχ-S/M Mode
The same strategy for Fear & Hunger Mode applies.
Dialogues
Talk
- Stitches: “Mmmf...mmm...” Stitches is mumbling something, but her mouth is stitched shut so she cannot talk properly.
- Player: [PERSUADE] “You don't look like one of those monsters above...”
- Stitches: “Mmffft... hmm.” Stitches swipes her hair to the sides of her head. She swirls around in a clumsy manner while admiring her own body. Stitches seems to be halting her attacks briefly. You are surprised yourself how easy it was to actually persuade her... (+Hesitation)
- If repeated:
- Stitches: “Mffm!” Your persuasion efforts don't seem to work anymore. (-Hesitation)
- Player: [INTIMIDATE] “I'll break you like a twig you are.”
- Stitches: “Ffffffmmmm...!” Stitches tries to mime spitting, but because of her stitches it doesn't quite work. You interpret this as her getting angry though. (+Furious)
- If repeated:
- Stitches: “Mffm!” Your intimidation tactics don't seem to work anymore.
- Player: “Can you understand me?”
- Stitches: “Mmmf...hm...” Whatever that meant.
- Player: “Please stay away!”
- Stitches: “Mmfka, mmfka, mmfkaa...” Sounds like cackling.
- Player: “Prepare to die.”
- Stitches: “Mmmf...hm...” Whatever that meant.
- Player: [PERSUADE] “You don't look like one of those monsters above...”
If Stitches is dead:
- The creature doesn't have a mouth, or even a distinct head... Your attempts to discuss with the creature are in vain.

Medical diagnosis | Nothing |
Player: “The person looks to have a rather normal female body. A little bit more muscular than usual perhaps, but nothing out of ordinary. She has sewn her mouth partly shut and there appears to be more sewn cuts scattered around her body. Their purpose is unknown to you, but they do distort her face beyond recognition. Because of the sewn cuts, the body is especially weak against slashing attacks that might open the cuts. Also blunt attacks might open the stitches.”
If Daan is in the party:
If playing as Daan: “The person looks to have a rather normal female body. A little bit more muscular than usual perhaps, but nothing out of ordinary. She has sewn her mouth partly shut and there appears to be more sewn cuts scattered around her body. Their purpose is unknown to you, but they do distort her face beyond recognition. But despite that... She eerily reminds you of someone... The more you entertain the idea, the more certain you become of this haunting realization. No matter how disfigured her face would be, you would always recognize your wife Elise... This woman has her appearance. You are 100% certain of this now. But it's impossible. She is dead... Either you are losing your mind slowly but surely, this place has finally gotten the best of you... Or maybe there is some other sinister reasoning behind all this... You hope that it is only your mind that is crumbling here... You wish Elise has her rest now... ”

Medical diagnosis | Nothing |
Player: “The living flesh looks to be a lumpy mass of fat and muscles. It is barely able to function. Examining the stitching marks, it looks like the entity consists of multiple different humans that were sewn together. Because the creature's skin is exposed, it is vulnerable to all kinds of attacks.”
If Daan is in the party: “The thing looks to be a lumpy mass of fat and muscles. It is barely able to function. Examining the stitching marks, it looks like the entity consists of multiple different humans that were sewn together. Could it be an artificial life of some kind? Because the creature is butt-naked, it is vulnerable to all kinds of attacks.”

Daan
If playing as Daan, upon fighting Stitches there will be an additional text box:
- Something about her feels strange...
Alternatively, if Daan is in the player's party:
- Stitches: “Mmmf...mmm...” Stitches is trying to gesture something, but you make sense of her...
Death cutscene
If defeated by Stitches, a short cutscene is played where the player and their party and sewn together to the end of the existing human centipede.
Trivia
- Stitches' design is inspired by Marilyn Manson's appearance in The Beautiful People music video.
- The death cutscene pays homage to the movie The Human Centipede series.
- The Living Flesh bears some resemblance to the flesh creature found in I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream, a horror story and video game by Harlan Ellison.
