A human skull, extracted from a corpse.

Acquisition

Skulls can only be extracted with the Ideology DLC, and only pawns with the Skullspike: DesiredContent added by the Ideology DLC precept in their ideoligion can extract skulls. This is done by designating corpses with the "extract skull" designator". It takes 180 ticks (3 secs) of work to extract a skull. This destroys head and reduces the amount of meat and leather extracted from the corpse. Blood will be created from non-skeletal corpses when extracting a skull. It is unknown whether skull extraction reduces the market value extracted from the corpse by a greater amount than is gained from the skull.

Skulls can commonly be acquired from gray boxes in the labyrinthContent added by the Anomaly DLC.

Skulls can also be carried by pawns with the psychopath trait as a starting possession.

Summary

Skulls retain the name of the person they were extracted from. Their main purpose is for building skullspikesContent added by the Ideology DLC.

Skulls can be consumed by harbinger treesContent added by the Anomaly DLC.
