Additionally, he uses a long-time healing spell on himself that [[HyperactiveMetabolism accelerates his metabolism]], turning him into a BigEater and creating a RunningGag where Veres eats all the party's food without ever looking any better. The spell wears off towards the end of the book, culminating in Shelena's assessment that [[LoveEpiphany he ain't all that skinny anymore]].

In contrast, Shuu Tsukiyama is revealed to have wasted away due to three years of [[TheLostLenore grief-induced]] starvation.
