No one takes the saying "you are what you eat" literally; it's not as though being a vegetarian will make you a [[Plant Person]], or eating pure beef will make you a [[Beast Man|Minotaur]]. Some [[What Measure Is a Non-Human?|non-human critters]] didn't get the memo though, because for them [[I'm a Humanitarian|eating people]] means ''being'' people. For some supernatural, alien, or stranger creatures to pretend to be human at all requires that they make a periodic consumption of [[Human Resources]]. Or simply put: Ghoulie has to eat people to look like one.
For the non-human, this will allow them to [[Shapeshifting|shape shift]] into a human form, potentially [[Cannibalism Superpower|that of the eaten]], though it may only allow them to become a human version of themselves. The non-human may use non-cannibalistic methods as well, for example a [[The Fair Folk|fae creature]] might steal [[The Shadow Knows|the shadow of a human]] to maintain their [[Glamour]], a [[Mutant]] might graft skin (or [[Appendage Assimilation|new appendages]] from healthy humans to avoid [[Power Degeneration]], a robot or alien may
Depending on what the non-human takes is how severely the victim is injured or killed. Some may be able to make a complete recovery, others will be [[Scars Are Forever|scarred or crippled for life]], and some unlucky souls will end up an [[Empty Shell]].
