Starvation is the state entered into after losing all of your fat reserves or layers. You gradually lose fat layers by fasting without keeping your food bar above 84% for a period of time. Once you have used all of your fat layers up you will no longer be able to fast and your food bar will be allowed to drop to 0%. To reverse this loss of fat, stay above 84% food bar for awhile by eating food such as meals, stews or casseroles.


Fasting usually occurs at 6% - 8% remaining food bar and you will recieve the following message in your event log: "Your hunger goes away as you fast.". Each fast will reduce your nutrition by 20% to a minimum of 10% at which, it cannot drop any lower.


As you become able to feed yourself to 100% food bar in game, you will become "full", which means your food bar is over 84%. Over time, being "full" generates fat reserves on your character which, currently, can be only be observed by having a fellow player right click and examine you. It will state how much fat you have, which can be one of the following:

  • normal build
  • well defined
  • good reserves of fat
  • extremely well nourished


It has been confirmed that starvation *will not kill you* as of yet, but this could be changed at a later date.
