Cannibalism
Cannibalism is the act or practice of humans or other sentient creatures eating the flesh or internal organs of other humans or sentient creatures. A person who practices cannibalism is known as a cannibal. Cannibalism is practiced throughout Golarion, but the most well-known examples of it occur among the kuru of the Cannibal Isles in the Shackles,1 the Koboto of the Sodden Lands,2 the island of Smuggler's Shiv off the Sargavan coast of Eleder,3 the Ice Mines of Hope Lost in the witch realm of Irrisen,4 and the Kalvamen of the Linnorm Kingdom of Icemark.5 Historically, it is believed that cannibalism was common in the ancient cyclopes kingdom of Ghol-Gan, judging by the terrifying murals found in Garund.6 The patroness of the practice of cannibalism is the demon lord Zura.7
