Killer Drive trait balance

[LetterShapedGlyphs]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I understand Killer Drive is an extremely cheap starting trait, but getting 5 morale from a single kill and capping at 10 seems a bit too shallow for a character who supposedly gets extreme joy from killing. +10 morale is basically nothing, and it does not scale well when you're mowing through large numbers of zombies in a row. I would expect a character with Killer Drive who just finished off two dozen plus zombies to be incredibly manic.

"I feel like Killer Drive doesn't accurately represent the mental state of a person obsessed with killing"

Describe the solution you'd like

Ideally, treat it like a stimulant addiction. Let it stack a lot higher and have both a crash and withdrawal. Barring that, decrease the morale gain per kill, increase both the positive and negative cap.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Increase the cap but raise the point cost.

How about if it gets low enough you attack nearby NPCs?

[LetterShapedGlyphs]

I'm not a huge fan of taking away control from a player like that. I can see making it bad enough that the player would /want/ to attack an NPC, but considering the extreme levels of morale penalty players are willing to put up with when necessary, I don't know how feasible that is.

We already discussed this and you got a hard no.
