The RNG had chosen an incantifier as my race. These species need
magical power as nutrition; e.g. draining enchantments from armor
or weapons.

Incidentally I found a ring slow digestion and wanted to increase
my hunger resilience. From observation I got the impression that
I got more hungry anyway, so I tested (with and without ring) the
decrease of my PW. It seems that wearing that ring will increase
my nutrition (=power) demands, though, not reducing it as I would
have expected it with a ring of this name.

Was my observation correct? (And is that intended behavior?)
