🥩The Gourmands🥩
The Gourmands are a group of cannibals from the game Fallout 76, as they feed off of human flesh. They are even said by notorious killers that it’s “inhumane” and something they would never do. Their former leader, Morris Stevens disappeared some time ago. It’s hard to keep track of time in a nuclear apocalypse. The year this story takes place in is 2102.
💀*The Morris Incident.*💀
Gang members like Jerry started to go missing, while some of them became suspicious about their leader Morris Stevens. The situation escalated when the gang was looking for another missing member named Gregory, and found his half-eaten corpse in Morris's room. This behavior was a direct violation of the gang's code to never feast on one of their own. The group then voted to exile both Morris and his wife Edie, who moved to the wendigo cave, where he subsequently ate her and became the "progenitor wendigo" not long after.

The Gourmands: Lore
The Gourmands originally were one of five raider gangs in Appalachia, that had a reputation of being "freaks" and "grisly and inhuman," likely because they were known to be cannibals. They unsuccessfully tried to exchange human flesh for goods with raider vendor bots, which led them to utter a note specifically addressing this. The exact reason as to why the group vanished is unknown. And even though their code forbade them to do so, rumors are persistent that they ate each other to death. But in THIS universe the Gourmands thrived. The Gourmands share a name with the Gourmand, a restaurant operated by the White Glove Society in Fallout: New Vegas. Like the Gourmands, the White Glove Society's story also involves cannibalism.
