Karma Flower

Karma Flowers are rare, yellow objects which can be found growing at specific locations throughout most of the game's regions.

Karma reinforcement
When eaten, Karma Flowers protect the player's current karma level, reinforcing it with an additional outer circle. This reinforcement is consumed upon the 's death, stopping the current karma level from decreasing. Attempting to starve also consumes the reinforcement, however without any positive effects. Additionally, dying with the reinforcement spawns a new Karma Flower at the location of the player's death, which is marked on the map with a special yellow symbol. Dying or hibernating before consuming this flower causes it to disappear.Eating a karma flower after eating one before it will not do anything

Karma flowers do not spawn for Hunter. Upon Hunter's permadeath, a Karma Flower can be permanently found at the spot of their death when playing as the Monk and Survivor on the same save file. Unlike other Karma Flowers, which respawn after 5 to 7 cycles, Hunter's Flower respawns every cycle, as long as the Slugcat hibernates inside of the region where it's located. If Hunter runs out of cycles and dies in a different spot, the old flower gets overwritten, now spawning at the most recent permadeath location.

Trading
Karma Flowers can be used in trades with s, having exactly half the trading value as one.
