The knife of the ghoul[1] is a magic weapon of unknown origin that appears to be a butcher's knife but made of bone and decorated with arcane sigils. It spices the flavor of any meat or flesh it slices, allowing the wielder enhanced skill as a cook. The magical spice it delivers to a victim cut by it further acts a poison, preventing healing unless the wound is properly cleaned. The wielder who slays a being so poisoned is likely compelled to feast on the flesh of her victim. Such an act grants the wielder (temporarily) increased vigor and spirit, but at the cost of a likely addiction to devouring raw flesh (ideally, the raw flesh of intelligent beings).
The most widely known legend associated with the knife is the story of Remiel Delaroe, a Dementlieuse butcher and would-be master chef.
