Ghouls are a defunct starting race in SpliceHack. They had a chance of paralyzing monsters that they attacked when unarmed, but were only able to consume corpses that are rotting. As undead, ghouls were affected by turn undead. All zombies and ghouls were generated peaceful to them.

Hunger

Ghouls became more powerful as they get hungrier. These effects were cumulative.

Hunger Abilities
Satiated As normal
Hungry +4 strength, +4 dexterity
Weak Melee attacks deal double damage.
Fainting +2 strength, +2 dexterity, +2 wisdom, +2 intelligence.

Just like convicts, ghouls could last twice as long while hungry. Additionally, ghouls did not suffer abuse penalties to their abilities due to hunger.
