Bunnymasks

This article is about the Fear & Hunger NPC's, for the Fear & Hunger 2: Termina boss see Sylvian trooper.

The Bunnymasks are followers of the old god Sylvian, who put on rabbit masks while naked and head to the meadows with other people to have sex as part of their religious rituals. Some of them can be encountered in Fear & Hunger.

Lore
"For a brief moment in ancient history, mankind fell into a craze of fleshly delights. As a synchronized mass, sea of naked people in a middle of coitus would pulsate and waste their days. There are still cults dedicated to Sylvian to this day, but many believe she left mankind behind long time ago." -Studies of Sylvian I, one of the readable documents a player may come across in Fear & Hunger''.

The presence of an eternal, anonymous orgy is another form of worship of the Older gods. Based off the Studies article, as well as the fact that having sex with the Bunnymask raises affinity with Sylvian, it is implied the Bunnymasks are a Sylvian sex cult.

Their rituals take the participants to a trance-like state, and therefore the act happens in complete silence and focus. From what can be seen graphically during a ritual session that one can witness or participate, the act itself is done on pairs, both heterosexual and homosexual. Various forms of intercourse happen at these rituals. Observers state that it is difficult to tell if they are actually enjoying the sex or not, as it may even look painful - but somehow, the love they are emitting to their surroundings can be felt.

One of the protagonists from Fear & Hunger 2: Termina, Daan, is a child of said followers. The bunny masks were apparently so focused on their religion that they neglected him as son, leaving him for extensive periods of time and and some point even trying to pass the 'healing gift' of Sylvian to him too. At some point his parents never returned, having succumbed to the ritual and leaving Daan to fend for himself.

Location & behaviour
The Bunnymasks can be found in the hidden courtyard, on the upper left. Most of them are engrossed in intercourse, but one female bunnymask at the front of the area will speak to the player, inviting them to participate, claiming the "first one's free". Doing so causes the player character to join the rites of the other Bunnyman.

Engaging in intercourse with the Bunnymask will completely restore your health, and increase your affinity with Sylvian. The first time you do this, it carries no consequences, with your character snapping out of it by themselves. Doing this again; however, forces a coin-flip on the player, if they fail, they will be stuck in a trance and receive a game over.
