{{name}} is a physical defect that affects the player's [[thirst]]. It also provides a 100 point reputation bonus with [[frogs]], and an unlisted 100 point bonus with [[svardym]] (though this bonus alone is not enough to bump the player into the next reputation bracket). | |||
Amphibious creatures will thirst ~67% faster than creatures without Amphibious. By default, the player character needs to drink one dram of water every 500 turns. With Amphibious, this becomes | |||
a dram every 300 turns. | |||
Despite the description, players with Amphibious still have to {{qud text|drin&Wk}} {{favilink|water}} as normal to hydrate themselves; {{qud text|&Wp&your}}ing water over themselves does nothing. Automatic drinking also functions as normal. | |||
Amphibious creatures with [[glotrot]] cannot contaminate containers they drink from with {{favilink|putrescence}} when the automatically drink automation function is used. However, this is still possible when choosing to manually drink from a container. Amphibious creatures are also unable to vomit due to overdrinking. | |||
== Cosmetic Differences == | |||
Players with Amphibious have several cosmetic changes compared to players without. | |||
When a player with Amphibious drinks water, the following message will be displayed: | |||
{{qud quote|You pour the water on yourself! You are now &Y<Thirst level>&y.}} | |||
Additionally, the player's thirst levels will have different names: | |||
