public class Head
extends AbstractItem

The head of an agent. You would create this using the PieceCreator on the death of a specific agent, in order to create something that the player could pick up and carry back in order to finish a "slay monster" type quest.

A head does attract the same attention as fish and bones. But there are some restrictions, based on decorum, as to what you can do with it. ;-)

NOTE: A whole agent isn't used here because otherwise this piece couldn't be embedded into a PieceCreator, as it would involve escaping to two levels. So just the name is used.
