The Midnight Epicure Upgrade Patch is an Upgrade Patch given to Carl on the Sixth Floor in a Gold Benefactor Box from the Plenty.

AI Description

Upgrade Patch. Medium.

Ah, yes. The Midnight Epicure. The Caprid Who Devours the Sky. This scary-ass fable is used to terrify children across the universe. Eat your dinner, or the Midnight Epicure will come eat it for you. He will not be satisfied by the meal and will in turn devour every child in the home. Best draw a picture of him and put it in your window to let him know you’re on to his tricks.

I’m pretty sure this fairy tale was devised by Big Therapy in order to keep themselves in work.

Over the cycles, the rather disturbing symbol of the Midnight Epicure, which is really just a racist caricature of an adult Caprid, developed into a ward against all night evils.

If this upgrade patch is affixed to an eligible garment, it will imbue the following upgrades:

  • Protection against Vampirism.
  • Protection against Lycanthropy.
  • +25% Magical damage against all sapient undead.

Warning: Upgrade patches are fleeting items. You may remove them, but they will be destroyed in the process.[1]

Appearance

A medium-sized patch made of a black, denim-like material with a grey satanic goat head screen-printed on it.

Location

Carl sews the patch "in a spot right next to the" Bomb Upgrade Patch, which is located in the"bottom left of the jacket's front, right along the hemline." [2][3]
