HarbingerKin - Phytokin

This adds a new Phytokin, the HarbingerKin, to the the VE Races - Phytokin mod. The HarbingerKin is psychically linked to the Harbinger Tree with similar traits. Requires Anomaly and Biotech.


Unlike the standard phytokin, who were genetically engineered to have a connection to plantlife of all sorts, the Harbingerkin is an abomination created by the corrupting touch of the Harbinger Tree on the sensitive psyche and developing form of a sapling child. Like their mothers, they are able to subsist only on sunlight, however their ravenous hunger for meat makes them excellent herders and hunters. While they still enjoy a genetic peace from growing and planting, they do not have the inherent skill their mothers do at caring for plants.\n\nBecause this particular xenogerm has been corrupted by the void energy of Harbinger trees, allowing a symbiosis with Harbinger trees and their hunger for raw flesh, Harbingerkin have no issue consuming raw flesh, even raw human flesh, without mental or physical downsides, and in fact have an unnatural need to do so. Furthermore, they are able to plant spores in a corpse on a semi-regular basis to produce a Harbinger Tree. Any sapling child planted near a harbinger tree has a high chance of being infected and twisted into a Harbingerkin.
