Masked Mutant

The Masked Cannibals are a late-game tribe of mutants, added in patch v0.55. They resemble pale cannibals from the neck down, but they have the faces of plane passengers and other victims stitched into a mask that they wear on their head. Some of the pale cannibals in the lab have been replaced with masked cannibals. They are similar to masked skinny cannibals, and the two always travel together, but these are much different in size and have very different stats and behaviors.

Gameplay
Masked Cannibals behave similarly to the regular cannibals. They travel with pale skinny cannibals in groups of 2-5, walking on two legs rather than using their arms like the skinny cannibals. They will rescue their knocked down and incapacitated comrades, though they have been observed fighting amongst themselves after an accidental strike on one by another.

Masked cannibals begin spawning on the surface beginning on day 22, and will begin to replace the pale cannibals above ground.
