"Document the different varieties of randomly-generated tin, especially the greasy ones."

A tin is a special kind of comestible that can be made by applying a tinning kit to a corpse, as well as being randomly generated. Tins of spinach can only be found or wished for; they cannot be made. Spinach will increase your strength attribute, unless it is cursed, in which case your strength will decrease.

Cursed tins are difficult to open, and blessed ones are easy to open. The best way to open a tin is to first wield a tin opener, which allows you to open it in one turn.

Corpses that convey intrinsics will have the same probability of conferring that intrinsic when they have been tinned. Tinning makes poisonous and rotten corpses safe, however, as your character picks out the good bits for the tin. It is popular to tin dragons, as you will still get the intrinsic, but without the enormous meal.

Tins containing the meat of genocided monsters will not be randomly generated. If you wish for such a tin, you will get an "empty tin" instead. Tins created before the species was genocided will still appear as "tin of foo", but upon opening "It turns out to be empty".

Appearance

An unidentified tin will appear as a "tin". Once the contents are known, one of the following descriptions is adopted instead:

tin of foo meat

if foo is a fleshy monster

tin of foo

if foo is a monster suitable for vegetarians

tin of spinach

if the tin contains spinach instead of a monster

empty tin

if the tin is empty
