“Breath Of The Moon”

The Villager (Sickle) is an Enemy and potential party member encountered in Fear & Hunger 2: Termina.

Lore

The man's appearance and clothing indicate he was once a regular resident of Prehevil's Old Town before succumbing to the Moonscorch. Although he carries a sickle and hesitates to kill, the influence of the Festival of Termina compels him towards aggression. He claims that Rher demands it, insisting there is no other way, as only one can survive.

Strategy

Fear & Hunger Mode

The best way to deal with the Sickle Villagers is to just attack the sickle arm, guard when he uses a bear trap and then rev up and attack the torso.

Masoχ-S/M Mode

The same strategy for Fear & Hunger Mode applies.

Weak against piercing attacks, fire and otherwordly powers.” If Daan is in the party: “The man has severe burns and malformations around his body, especially on his face.

Trivia

• Work of Francis Bacon heavily influenced the final design of villagers and rifleman.
• The villagers have their faces twisted by the moonscorch, and all have a clear partition in the middle of the face that resembles Rher's half moon depiction in his Skin Bible or Needles' face paint.
